Chapter 472
Besides, Sergio had never intended to keep Clara’s child.
“Hande it immediately. I expect results by tomorrow,” Sergio ordered
“Yes, Mr. Brooks.”
After handing the phone to Larry, Sergio headed straight upstairs.
In the study, Richard anxiously awaited Sergio’s arrival When Sergio entered, Richard approached quickly. “Mr. Brooks, my condolences about Ms. Bamoz’s baby-”
Sergio cut him off kelly. “Today’s events should remain private. You understand?”
“Of course. Family matters should stay private. I get it” Richard nodded vigorously.
But Sergio continued, “I want you to arrest Clara tomorrow
”
“Yes, yes… wait, what?” Richard looked up, baffled, struggling to comprehend
Arrest Clara on the same day he lost his child? How could this be?
“But… Mr. Brooks, strictly speaking, inducing your own miscarriage isn’t a crime. We need a valid reason to arrest her.
“And.. you just said you want this kept quiet. Arresting her will cause a scandal Fearful of the repercussions, Richard hesitated.
Sergio fixed him with a cold stare. “She caused a scene today and falsely accused Maeve just arrest her openly. You can release her the same day. That’s all you need to do”
Richard was baffled but finally saw the path Sergio had laid out for him.
After thinking it over, he said, “Got it. I’ll have Ms. Ramoz brought in for questioning tomorrow. If her miscarriage was accidental, it won’t implicate anyone else. But if it was deliberate.”
Richard thought he had figured out Sergio’s intentions- to frame Maeve for causing Clara’s miscarriage. After all, if Maeve pushed Clara down the stairs, she’d face charges for intentional hara,
But before Richard could finish his words, Sergio grabbed him by the collar and glared at him menacingly. “I said arrest Clara, not frame Maeve! You’ll answer for any implications on Marvel”
Sergio shoved Richard away forcefully.
Terrified, Richard stammered, “1–Emisjudged your intentions, Mr. Brooks! I’ll handle Ms. Ramoz’s arrest first thing tomorrow.”
Once Richard departed, Sergio’s face returned to its usual stole expression.
Larry stood outside and spoke softly, “Mr. Brooks, Ms. Stewart is asking that you visit her in the hospital”
“I’m not going.”
As Sergio’s words left his mouth, Maeve’s earlier remarks echoed in his mind.
“She’s your woman, and she just lost your child. Shouldn’t you go and check on her?
“Sergio, would you just stand there and watch the woman carrying your child die on the operating table..”
Sergio frowned deeply. What did Marve’s last words mean?
