"Yes, madam."
Maeve walked up to Sergio, who didn't intend to speak. She sat opposite him and said, "You brought me back here under false pretenses. What do you want to say?"
"Who did you sell the land to in the sewage district?" Sergio asked.
Maeve found his question amusing. "Didn't you investigate it?"
Since the news about the sewage district being rejuvenated broke, Sergio had only asked her about it
once.
She didn't believe Sergio would let go of such a lucrat ve opportunity so easily. If she didn't want to say, he would surely investigate discreetly.
Presumably, Sergio had already received the false information she released. He was obviously unhappy
with the investigation's results, which is why he had brought her back here.
"Zachary Davenport... There has never been such a figure in Seathburn City before."
Sergio observed Maeve's reaction to his words. Of course, Maeve wouldn't give anything away. Zachary was her, and she was Zachary. It was just a false identity. It was unsurprising for Sergio not to find anything in the investigation.
"How would I know? Maybe they're a foreign entrepreneur," Maeve casually changed the subject. "Did you bring me back specifically to ask me this? I don't have time to answer these boring questions." Maeve prepared to get up, but Sergio seemed to have compromised, asking, "How long are you going to keep throwing tantrums?"
Maeve hadn't returned home for three months. He thought that Maeve would come to her senses if he gave her some space, but he hadn't expected that she wouldn't budge at all this time.
"I'm not throwing a tantrum. Since you're unwilling to get a divorce, I can only use my own methods to force you to do so."
Maeve's words infuriated Sergio. "Maeve, do you really want to divorce? Do you like Zion that much?"
"I've said it many times before. This has nothing to do with Zion!"
"Do you think I'll believe that?" Sergio grabbed Maeve's wrist. "Who else could it be for if not Zion? It's because Zion likes you, he can give you money and save your family, right?" Maeve found his accusation ridiculous. "Yes, Zion likes me. He can give me money and provide better resources for my family, so I can't wait to divorce you. Are you satisfied now?" "You!" Sergio was furious. He usually kept his temper in check, but Maeve had been getting under his skin quite easily lately.
He struggled to suppress his anger and said, "So you've been with Zion for the past three months, haven't

you?"
2/2
Sergio had people secretly watch Maeve for the past three months, but they had all been intercepted by Zion's men. His people hadn't even been able to catch a glimpse of Maeve's hair. This suspicion had been in his mind for three months now. He just wanted Maeve's answer.
Maeve looked at the anger in Sergio's eyes and chuckled coldly. "What do
"You wench!" Sergio/pushed Maeve away, and she fell back onto the sofa.
you think?"
However, she only felt relieved. Seeing Sergio's fury, she was reminded of the despair she experienced in her past life.
In the past, for Clara, Sergio had never cared about whether Maeve, who was his wife, lived or died.
Even when she was bleeding heavily during childbirth, Sergio's voice over the phone had been so calm, as if he couldn't wait for her to die.
Maeve still remembered clearly that before she died, all the type A blood in the hospital had been taken away.
Apart from Sergio, there wasn't anyone in Seathburn City capable of doing that.
Sergio was a murderer! To be with Clara, he didn't even hesitate to kill his wife. He did all of that to leave Mrs. Brook's position vacant so that Clara could formally be a part of his family.
Now, although she and Zion were just having normal interactions, he was clinging to her like this. It turned/ out he was also scared of his wife cheating on him. He had a temper, too. Spin to Claim Your Surprise Reward!
