“Just do as you please,” Zion said coldly before turning and walking away. Charlie quickly followed, not wanting to be left behind. Serena stood alone 
After observing the scene, Marve turned to leave as well 
“Did you hear what they were saying?” Lyra asloed as she caught up to her. 
“Yes, I did,” Maeve replied, Charlie’s voice had been loud enough for anyone nearby to hear. 
However, Serena had caused Maeve considerable trouble. 
Seeing Mawe’s grim expression, Lyra became serious. “Is Serena joining Brooks Entertainment going to cause you problems?” 
Maeve remained silent, but her expression spoke volumes. Lyra picked up on it immediately. “Is it really serious?” 

“I hope not.” Marve sighed 
The Norman family’s prominence overseas, combined with Zion’s backing, made them a formidable force. Brooks Entertainment’s decision to sign Serena seemed like a strategic damage control to overshadow the recent scandal involving Lucas. 
With Serena’s background, she would likely attract significant overseas investment. 
It was clear now why Serena and Zion’s news that were trending earlier, as it was all part of Brooks Entertainment’s plan to boost Serena’s Image after the Lucas debacle. 
It looked like Brooks Entertainment, nearly ruined by Lucas, was on the verge of a comeback

“Who helped her out?” 
“We’re not sure who arranged it, but it doesn’t seem to have been done by the Brooks family.” 
Maeve found it ironic. “It wasn’t the Brooks family, then who? Did she break out on her own? 
“No, it was a legal release. She was bailed out.”

“You’re saying that Belle has managed to bail her out?” Maeve chuckled. “Thave people watching her. She’s drowning in debt and has been dodging her creditors. She definitely doesn’t have the money to bail Clara out.”

“Take your time with it. This isn’t urgent.” 
“It isn’t urgent?

“Since Clara managed to get out, it means that she has the resources. And now, she has Mrs. Brooks Senior, who desperately wants a grandson, protecting her. Who could possibly lay their hands on Clara now?” 
Zayla paused, then nodded. “Understood. I’ll proceed carefully.” 
“Be thorough. The information will be useful someday.”
