Chapter 81: Chapter 85

.

Chapter 85 When the doctor came out of the ward, Sergio finally stepped forward and asked in an anxious tone, “Is Clara okay? Was it serious?”

The doctor replied, “It’s not very serious, but there’s a wound on her forehead that might leave a scar.

Since most girls care a lot about their looks, she may need some counseling later on so that she won’t feel too bad about it.”

Sergio was rooted to the spot.

After getting the hospital address from Larry, Maeve had just arrived at the hospital when she saw Sergio and the doctor talking.

Sergio rubbed between his eyebrows in fatigue. When he turned around, he spotted Maeve. At that moment, even his gaze was cold as he said, “How dare you show up here? Clara’s face is ruined. Are happy now?”

you “Calm down, Sergio.” Maeve said expressionlessly, “No one wanted these things to happen. Moreover, we couldn’t have predicted that she would get into an accident.”

“We?”

Sergio looked like he had just heard some sort of joke. Scoffing, he said, “So you’ve already considered yourself part of Zion’s group, huh?”

Maeve frowned.

Stepping forward, Sergio slowly approached Maeve. The oppressive air about him invaded Maeve as well. “You were with Zion and Charlie back at the hotel last time, weren’t you? And Lyra was just there to bail you out, right? What exactly is your relationship with Zion? How far have you two progressed?”

Sergio gripped Maeve’s wrist. When Maeve saw Sergio’s reddened eyes, she subconsciously shook Sergio’s hands away.

“Enough, Sergio! I don’t understand what you’re saying at all!”

Looking at his hands, which were shaken off, Sergio said in a cold voice, “Maeve, you’d better hope that Clara’s face can be fixed. If not, don’t blame me for taking action against the Jansen family.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Clara’s scream suddenly rang out from within the ward.

Sergio opened the door and went in almost without hesitation. In the room, Clara was shoving a cup off the table. When Maeve walked in, Clara had already had a death grip on Sergio’s arms as she leaned into his embrace. “My face. Is my face ruined? My face is ruined, isn’t it?”

“Come, now. Just calm down. The doctor said that you have to stabilize your emotions, or your recently stitched wounds might open up again.”

Sergio gently comforted Clara.

Clara’s forehead and arms were covered in wounds. When she looked up and spotted Maeve, fury boiled in her eyes. Pointing at Maeve, who was standing nearby, she said, “Maeve, I’ve never offended you, so Chapter 85 why would you do this to me? You must be the one behind this! You have to be!”

Maeve quietly watched Clara’s performance.

972 She thought that this was purely an accident, but as soon as Clara saw her, Clara began accusing her. So, Maeve now thought that there must be something fishy about this incident.

Holding Clara’s hands, Sergio coaxed her in a soft voice, “Be good, Clara. Calm down. I’ll handle this, so you should just focus on recovering.”

“Sergio, I just wanted to apologize to Ms. Jansen, but I have no idea how I offended Maeve instead. She and Lyra disgraced me in public, and they insulted me time and again.... I have no idea what I did wrong... If my face is ruined, I don’t want to live anymore.

Clara sobbed so much that her face turned red. Sergio’s gaze was filled with pity. When he turned to look at Maeve, the look in his eyes turned even colder. There were even hints of disgust that had been present in Maeve’s previous life. “Get lost! I don’t want to see you ever again!”

Larry stepped forward and said, “Madam, I think you should leave for now.”

Maeve glanced at Clara, catching sight of the gleeful smile on Clara’s face as she leaned in Sergio’s embrace.

Clara seemed to be challenging Maeve with that smile.

Maeve sneered. Then, she turned around and left the ward.

Larry followed Maeve. He couldn’t help it as he said, “Madam, Mr. Brooks was just in a bad mood because Ms. Stewart was in an accident. Please don’t take it to heart.”

“Tell Sergio that I’m moving out of Brooks Manor from today onward. Since Clara was so severely injured, she should rest and recuperate in Brooks Manor. She can stay there for as long as she likes.”

After saying those words in a cold voice, Maeve left without turning back.

Larry returned to the ward. Looking at Clara, who was still sobbing tragically in Sergio’s arms, Larry relayed Maeve’s message to Sergio.

Sergio felt nothing but anger in his heart. “If she wants to leave, then so be it!”
