Chapter 519 Zionâs voice was icy. âAnswer the question properly.â
T/T âZion, Iâm warning you, youâre now at a prison. If you dare to hurt me, thatâs against the Ln-â
Before Philipcould finish, Zion tightened his grip, making Philip feel like his shoulder bones were about to shatter. Philip grimaced in pain and shouted, âHelp...help! Somebody help!â
Zionâs tone was menacing. âThere are no surveillance cameras here. No one will come in without my orders. No one will save you. But donât worry, Iâll cover your medical bills.â
Seeing the cold glint in Zionâs eyes, Philip gave up resisting completely.
Marve spoke up, âI want to know the secret behind the Scott familyâs memorial hallâ
Hearing this, Philip hesitated. â11only heard bits and pieces about whatâs hidden in that memorial hall. I heard that there were valuable items there.
âTo cover my debts, I had no choice but to steal Patrickâs keys. Thatâs when I overheard him saying he was going to kick me out.
I was so angry, I leftâ
Philip rubbed his temples wearily. âI searched the entire memorial hall and found nothing valuable. I felt I had been fooled and it made me even angrier.
âI knew how important the key was to Patrick, so I tried to use it as leverage. But Patrick wasnât fazed. In a fit of rage, I planned that car accident.â
After hearing the whole truth, Maeve was completely disillusioned with Philip. She turned to Zion and said, âZee, we can gor Zion released Philp. As Mave turned to leave, she suddenly stopped and looked back at Philip. âI think my dad kicking you out wasnât really about cutting ties with you.
âHe knew the people who got you into gambling debt were trying to bring down the entire Scott family. By kicking you out, those people would realize you had no value to them.â
Hearing Meeveâs words, Philip didnât lift his head, but a glimmer of clarity seemed to light up his cloudy gaze. He didnât want to admit his foolishness, but he fell into deep thought at that moment Outside the room, Richard, who had been standing guard, saw them coming out and asked, âAre you guys done?â
Marve nodded. âThank you for arranging this, Mr. Carter.â
âNot at all. Glad to be of helpâ
Richard smiled and then turned to Zion âMr. Spencer, the car is ready. Weâll take you both back now, âGoodâ
Zion stayed close to Maeve, and Richard followed behind them. One of the prison guards whispered to Richard, âMr. Carter, isnât Ms. Scott actually Mrs. Brooks? Why is she so close to Mr. Spencer?â
âShush! Shut up! Donât ask what you shouldnât!â Hearing this, the guard quickly covered his mouth.
Just then, Zion seemed to hear the commotion behind them, and he quickly wrapped his arm around Maeveâs waist.
Marke glanced down at Zionâs hand around her waist and frowned. âWhat are you doing?
âNothing I just didnât want you to fall.â
