Chapter 494
“No matter what, Mr. Brooks, you owe me an explanation! What’s going on with you and my daughter? Nathalie is determined to marry you. She even lost a child for you. Is this how the Brooks family operates?
Henry’s Jurious outburst was met with a heavy silence.
Sergio’s eyes bore a cold, indifferent gleam as Henry stood dumbfounded. He felt a chill run down his spine as the one before him was none other than Sergio
“Sergio, you promised to be engaged with me. Why… Did Ms. Scott say something to you?”
Clara immediately turned to Maeve with her eyes brimming with tears. “Ms. Scott, if I’ve made you upset in the past, please forgive me! I beg you not to take Sergio away from me. I can’t bear to lose him.”
Cara lost her composure and collapsed into Henry’s arms, who could barely hold her.
But when faced with Sergio, he couldn’t muster the courage to speak too harshly. “Mr. Brooks, given my daughter’s condition, don’t you think you owe us an explanation?” Everyone awaited Sergio’s response. But Sergio only held Maeve’s hand and said, “I’ve never intended to divorce Maeve. As for today’s engagement rumor with Ms. Ramoz, I’m curious to know who started it too.”
Sergio glanced at Clara and Henry, who looked guilty and avoided his gaze.
He had indeed misled Clara and Henry. However, they went lightheaded by assuming they had gained favor with the Brooks family and immediately severed ties with Conner. They even spread the news of the engagement. Now the entire Seathburn City thought tonight’s banquet was about Sergio’s engagement to Clara.
But Henry forgot that Sergio never succumbed to such tactics. Hoping Sergio would marry Clara by going with the flow was pure fantasy.
“What’s going on? Mr. Brooks isn’t getting engaged to Ms. Ramaz?”
“I told you, Ms. Ramoz is just a mistress. She couldn’t even secure a place in the Brooks family when she was pregnant. Now that the child is gone, why would the Brooks family welcome her as a daughter–in–law?”
“Ibet today’s engagement rumor was probably started by the Ramoz family to pressure the marriage to take place. How ridiculous.”
The surrounding chatter pierced Clara’s ears, and several socialites who had just flattered her left to watch the drama unfold elsewhere. Only Dorothy, who stood beside Clara, hadn’t had time to leave.
Clara seemed to recall something and immediately said, “Sergio, did you know Marve slept with an old man during your separation? How can you remarry such a woman?” Clara’s words caused a stir in the crowd.
Maeve raised an eyebrow. “Oh? Ms. Ramoz, where did you hear these rumors?”
Clara immediately grabbed Dorothy’s hand and pushed her forward.
Suddenly, Dorothy was thrust into the spotlight
Dorothy’s face turned pale as Clara continued, “You know her, right? She’s a trainee from the Hackett Group! She’s seen you being picked up by a bury car every night! “Apparently, you even seduced the other trainer’s boyfriend! Last but not least, you entered the Hackett Group through connections. She can testify to all of this!” “..” Dorothy was at a loss for words.
“Really How come I don’t know about all this?” Maeve looked at Dorothy with a smile. “Ms, Reeves, is what she said true?
Instantly, all eyes focused on Dorothy
