Maeve pushed herself up from the sofa, her eyes filled with disdain. “I’ve told you what you wanted to know. Can I leave now?”

“Stop!” Sergio grabbed Maeve’s wrist. “Where do you think you’re going? Are you going to see Zion?”
“Let go!” Maeve shook off Sergio’s hand. “Where I go has nothing to do with you!”
“But you’re my wife!” Sergio stepped toward Maeve, pulling at the tie on his shirt. “Didn’t you use to like me a lot and want to be with me? I’ll fulfill your wishes now. You won’t think about seeing Zion again!”
Maeve was stunned. “Sergio! Have you lost your mind?
“I have! I must have lost my mind to let you go out for so long!”
Sergio gripped Maeve’s wrist tightly and pinned her down on the sofa. His eyes were filled with possessiveness. “You’re not going anywhere tonight.”
“Sergio! Let go!” Maeve’s struggles only fueled Sergio’s fire.

Sergio pulled apart Maeve’s dress, revealing a patch of fair skin on her shoulder. The snow–white scar on her chest only stimulated Sergio even more.

This slap woke Sergio up. Even though Maeve had disliked him before, he had never seen such disgust in her eyes. It was like he was nothing but a piece of dirty trash to her. This feeling stunned him for a while.
Sergio spoke calmly, but hoarsely. “Are you rejecting me because of Zion?”
Maeve found this amusing. “Sergio, don’t make me look down on you.” Pushing him off, Maeve gave
Sergio a cold glance and went upstairs.
It seemed like he had exhausted all his energy. Sergio leaned back against the sofa, looking more tired than ever before.
He dialed Larry’s number and said wearily, “Investigate everything about Zachary and give it to me by tomorrow.”
“Mr. Brooks, I’ve already instructed someone to investigate Zachary’s personal information, but… this person’s identity is a mystery, and our network hasn’t found any information about him.”
“Then contact Mirage Group. I want to meet him.”
“Yes, Mr. Brooks.”
After hanging up the phone, Sergio rubbed his temples. He couldn’t focus on work at all recently. Did

Maeve really despise him so much? Even a slight touch from him made her feel disgusted.

Maeve received a message from Zion early the following day. The chairman of Brooks Group wanted to meet the CEO of Mirage Group. Well, it was impossible actually to meet.
Maeve replied to Zion,/“Decline.”
