Chapter 530
Maeve was stripping away the pretense right in front of Hailey
Cecilia grew more agitated as Halley remained silent
1s everything she said true? Did you know from the start that the person who entered my room wasn’t Sergio? You brought someone in to deceive me!”
Cecilia screamed hysterically, but Hailey, facing the already breaking Cecilia, snapped back, “It’s your own fault for not being able to keep a man! Don’t blame others!” Hailey’s words cut deep, like a knife to Cecilia’s heart she had trusted Hailey and worked hard to win Sergio’s favor, only to realize that Halley had used her as a pawn
and discarded her without a second thought
“It’s you. It’s all your fauld”
Cecilia lunged forward, and Halley, caught off guard by the sudden aggression, stepped back in fear. In the blink of an eye, Cecilia had a knife pressed against Hailey’s throat. Only then did true fear show on Hailey’s face “What are you doing? Are you crazy?”
“Yes, I am crazy! You drove me to this!” Cecilia’s expression was twisted. She had lost her virginity and came here seeking justice, only to face even more humiliation, Though her family was no match for the powerful Brooks family, she had still been pampered all her life and had never been subjected to such disgrace.
Cecilia was inherently good–natured, but Hailey had exploited her weakness and never treated her with any decency.
“Cecila! Put the knite down!”
Sergio’s command seemed ridiculous to Cecilia. She had loved Sergio since the first moment she saw him. So when Halley approached her, she had genuinely hoped to one day stand by Sergio’s side as his wife,
But she had been painfully naïve. How could she have believed Sergio would ever have feelings for her? How could she have thought she could be with someone like him?
In the past, she would have followed Sergio’s words blindly. But now, all Cecilia wanted was the thrill of revenge.
“Sergio, you and your grandmother humiliated me! You let someone take my virginity and watched as 1 foolishly dreamed of marrying you.
“Are you both very pleased with yourselves? Are you both feeling great about the achievement? Is it your family’s privilege to toy with others?
Cecilia voiced Maeve’s hidden thoughts while pressing the kite harder against Hailey. Maeve watched her with a sense of recognition as it seeing her own past reflected in Cecilia “Do you really think you can harm anyone here? Don’t be foolish.”
Maeve spoke slowly, “Think about your family and your future. Consider the consequences of killing her. Do you really have the courage to go through with in?”
Hearing Maeve’s words, Cecilia’s aggressive stance faltered.
Maeve continued, “If you’re looking for justice, I believe Mrs. Brooks Senior can give it to you. She can’t restore your virginity, but she can offer financial compensation.” “Mave! What are you talking about?
Hailey glared at Maeve as she was clearly displeased with her suggestion.
But Maeve continued indifferently, “Let’s say a billion dollars. I heard Mrs. Brooks Senior has quite a bit of cash stashed away. A billion should be enough to make up for your emotional damage”
