Chapter 377
Charlie saw Lyra’s look and rephrased his sentence. “Ms. Scott, don’t get me wrong, Zion is rich, but his money isn’t clean yet…
”
charlie was about to continue, but Lyra kicked him and glared at him. “What do you mean it isn’t clean? What are you talking about?”
He immediately shut his mouth.
Lyra sat beside Maeve and said, “It’s something between the men. Just stay out of it. If Zee gets to be with you later, I think he’ll give you the entire Spencer Manor as a wedding gin!”
Maeve blushed. “Why… Why would I need a house as big as Spencer Manor?”
“Hey, I was just giving an example.”
Lyra held Maeve and said, “I’ll only acknowledge you as his wife! The other women can stay away!”
Maeve fell silent. Wealth had never been the thing she wanted.
It was just that she had experienced too many dramas in this life and her past life. If she could meet the right person, she only wished to live a peaceful life with
him.
They would be an ordinary couple without betrayal, conspiracies, and lies.
The night fell, and the lights dazzled in the nightclub.
In a private room, Conner, who had defined features, wore a
a black shirt
shirt that revealed his chest slightly. He was gently swirling a glass of whiskey.
He arched an eyebrow and chuckled before he said in a deep voice, “Mr. Brooks, Zion’s men have come just this moming, and you’re here now. Ms. Scott is truly remarkable. She could actually get you two to come!
”
Sergio sat across from Conner and said coldly, “I don’t care what Zion’s man had told you, but Maeve is my wife. You have to pay the price for laying your hands on her in Seathbum City.”
The door of the private room was kicked open. A group of bodyguards in black dashed in. All of them were holding tasers.
Conner’s gaze turned cold.
Sergio placed the glass on the table, his face apathetic. “Zion isn’t the only person who holds power in the underworld.”
“Mr. Brooks, I’ve never expected this side of you…
Conner stared at the group of bodyguards and said in a deep voice, “I’ve only come to Seathburn City to look for my fiance. Mr. Brooks, you have your wife, but you still made Nathalie pregnant and suffer. I’ll have to settle the score with you.”
ay for hitting Maeve.”
“Mr. Jefferson, if you wish to do that, I’ll be waiting. But I’ll have to make you pay
With that, those men next to Sergio rushed forward. The next instant, Conner’s men dashed into the private room, too.
Conner didn’t bat an eye as he asked, “Mr. Brooks, do you actually think I’ll come here alone?”
Sergio replied coldly, “I’ll take down all your men today.”
Both sides refused to give in. They immediately started fighting because of Sergio’s words.
In an instant, the sounds of people fighting and crying echoed in the private room.
Conner’s gaze grew colder. “Mr. Brooks, you don’t give a damn about me at all.”
Sergio sneered. “You’re wrong. I don’t give a damn about the Jefferson family.”
Conner narrowed his menacing eyes.
Then, Sergio said to Larry, “Bring that person who hit Mrs. Brooks today.”
“Okay, Mr. Brooks.” Larry faced the door and exclaimed, “Bring him in!”
Conner frowned and saw someone being brought in by two bodyguards. The people in the private room immediately stopped fighting.
That person’s face was full of bruises. He had been tied up and was kneeling on the ground.
Sergio instructed nonchalantly, “Chop off the hand that he had used to slap Mrs. Brooks.”
