âBut what if Ms. Hoffman uses this evidence to threaten Mr. Brooks?â
âThe real culprit here is Halley,â Maeve said. âCecilia canât use this to threaten Sergio, and she should be aware that attempting to do so will only bring trouble to the Hollman family.â
Maeve continued, âTake the evidence to Cecilia. Let her know that while she can have it, the Brooks family will no longer offer any benefits to the Hoffmans or cooperate with them in any way.
âIf Cecilia is upset, she can use the evidence to threaten Mrs. Brooks Senior to get the billionâdollar compensation she deserves.â
Larry asked cautiously, âMrs. Brooks... are you trying to keep Mr. Brooks out of this?â
âHeâs not involved in this matter at all,â Maeve replied coolly. âIâm not helping him.
Maeveâs demeanor was composed. In reality, if Sergio had handled this, he would have managed it more discreetly. But Maeve had no intention of letting Hailey enjoy a peaceful old age.
After all, people who commit wrongs should face consequences, shouldnât they?
Soon, the Hoffmans arrived at Brooks Manor with their lawyer.
Haileyâs temper flared when she saw Cecilia and her parents, Noah Hoffman and Mia Robinson. âWho let you guys in here?
Allie! Get them out!â âMrs. Brooks Senior, after all these years, how could you let your driver ruin my daughterâs life?â Noah, though short in stature, had a fierce temper. He slammed a copy of the evidence on the table, showing a tall, middleâaged man sneaking into Ceciliaâs room.
Haileyâs face darkened. She hadnât expected this evidence to be in the Hoffmansâ possession.
The package included not only photos of the man but also dashcam footage from the carâclear proof of Hailey instructing the driver to assault Cecilia. Seeing this, Hailey sneered, âAre you threatening me?â
Noahâs voice was icy. âThis isnât a threat. Itâs the compensation you owe my daughter. Cecilia hasnât even graduated from college yet and has been working for you all this time. What did she do to deserve this?â
âShe was useless! I just fulfilled her dream of living in a wealthy family. Sheâs had more than enough by living at our place for free!â
âThatâs nonsense! Youâre heartless! Cecilia, drop the act and show them the contract!â
With Noahâs support, Cecilia quickly produced the contract Halley had signed, promising a billionâdollar payout.
The Hoffmans had already had it notarized, making it legally binding. If Hailey didnât transfer the billion within three days, sheâd face a lawsuit.
Taken aback by the Hoffmans determination, Hailey tried to keep her composure. âDo you really think suing me will get you that billion? Let me warn you, Sergio wonât go easy on your family.â
Noahâs face was hard. âDo you know who gave us this evidence? If it werenât for Mr. Brooks, do you think weâd dare to demand an explanation?â
Haileyâs face went pale. âWhat did you say?
His statement made Haileyâs face turn pale. âWhat did you say?â
