Never See You Again

Chapter 99

The Brooks family had always been strict in their education. Also, since Sergio was raised by Hailey, he didn't even dare to dodge the punishment.

Hailey exerted all the strength she had. After several lashes, Sergio's body had turned black and blue

Maeve watched everything coldly. Sergio gritted his teeth, suppressing his urge to cry out in pain.

In the end, the belt Hailey was holding had snapped in half. Finally, Halley said, "Are you going to apologize or not?"

Sergio still didn't utter a word.

Maeve knew Sergio very well. He was beaten to this extent, but he still refused to speak up, so it must mean that he didn't want to apologize at all.

Maeve said, "Grandma, please calm down. Actually, I don't blame Sergio at all. Look at the state he's in!! think we should get a doctor to have a look at him."

Maeve put on an understanding demeanor. Hailey was slightly appeased.

She was Sergio's grandmother, so of course, she knew the sort of temper her grandson had.

It was impossible for her to get Sergio to apologize.

The punishment just now was only a performance for Maeve so that Maeve could calm down.

Patting Maeve's hand, Hailey said, "Child, from now on, I'll help you discipline him. I promise on his behalf that that woman will never walk through the doors of Brooks Manor. You'll always be the sole lady of the

Brooks family."

Maeve simply smiled.

Sergio, who was still kneeling on the floor, had a cold look in his eyes as he looked at Maeve.

It was getting late. In the end, Hailey still asked Larry to summon the doctor. Then, she left Brooks Manor.

Maeve sat on the couch, calmly drinking tea. Sergio got on his feet and said in a slightly disgusted voice, Maeve, haven't you had enough of pretending?"

Maeve didn't say a word.

Sergio continued, "You threatened to file a divorce, and you managed to get Grandma to chase Clara away. You're such a cunning woman! I've underestimated you!" "Make of it however you will."NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

Maeve never once cared what Sergio thought of her. She got up, for the doctor had already arrived at the door. Maeve said to the doctor, "You can exert more force when applying ointment on him. Mr. Brooks is a strong man, and he doesn't fear pain at all."

The doctor lowered his head in panic, glancing at Sergio out of the corner of his eye. Sergio had a dark

expression on his face.

In the next few days, Hailey had grounded Sergio, so he couldn't take even a step outside of Brooks

Manor.

The staff at Brooks Group didn't dare say anything about it, and they could only complain among themselves. After all, Hailey was extremely powerful in the Brooks family. Hence, they had no choice but to allow Sergio to work from home.

Maeve knew that Hailey was creating an opportunity for them.

On the third day, Sergio finally couldn't stand it anymore. He opened the door to Maeve's room.

Maeve was sitting by the bed, watching the stock market. When she saw Sergio coming in, she navigated away from the stock market display.

"What's the matter?"

Maeve put on an indifferent expression.

In the past few days, Sergio couldn't go out, so he didn't know how Clara was faring. By the looks of it, Sergio must be worried about Clara's condition, so he had no choice but to talk to Maeve. "Maeve, if you don't want Grandma to hear about you attending Amenam University, tell her to let me out."

"Sergio, you're not making sense, Mrs. Brooks Senior was the one who grounded you. How am I capable of getting Grandma to let you out?”
