Chapter 91
"That works too. If we let them go home, their neighbors will have to put up with the noise throughout the night."
Charlie put on his seatbelt and then patted Lyra on the face. Lyra him. "Lyra, don't fall asleep! You might catch a cold later."
was sitting in the passenger seat next to
Lyra was already sound asleep, so she didn't hear anything Charlie said.
In the backseat, Maeve was also feeling sleepy thanks to the warm air in the car. Her already flushed face reddened even more.
Zion retrieved a blanket from the back. Then, he draped it over Maeve's body.
"You can take a nap for now. We'll be there soon."
Maeve nodded obediently. She was indeed feeling exhausted. Before she knew it, she had fallen asleep while leaning against the car window.
Meanwhile, Sergio turned off his computer in the study. The house was quiet. Rubbing between his eyebrows, Sergio picked up his phone. He still hadn't received any news of Maeve. Soon, Larry called him.
Sergio answered the call. "Where's Maeve?"
"Madam seems to be in a nightclub."
"A nightclub?"
Sergio frowned.
Maeve rarely went to such places. Her most recent visit was the time when she was meeting up with Sheldon.RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
After causing a huge ruckus on the internet last time, how could she possibly dare to go to such places again?
"Probably. I couldn't hear it very clearly, but I could tell that it was quite noisy on the other end of the line. Madam seemed to be drunk, and... she wasn't quite willing to come back." When Sergio heard Larry saying that, he flew into a rage.
"Send some men to look for her! Why did she go to a nightclub all alone in the middle of the night? Is she
out of her mind?"
*Please calm down. Mr. Brooks. I've already sent men to look for her. We should receive news soon." They had connections to all the famous nightclubs in Seathburn City. So, they could easily figure out
where a member of their social circle had been.
Sergio said, "Call me as soon as Maeve is found." Chapter 91
"Understood, Mr. Brooks."
After ending the call, Sergio felt a little upset inside..
Just then, knocks sounded on the door of the study. Opening the door, Clara saw Sergio retrieving his suit jacket from the rack. She was stunned as she asked, "Where are you going this late at night? "I'm going out for a while. It's getting late, so you should rest early."
Sergio didn't intend to mention the details.
Holding a mug of coffee in her hands, Clara asked, "Are you going to discuss matters about work? I've just made some coffee, so you should drink it before you leave. You'll be more energized for the discussion later, too."
"I'm going to look for Maeve."
Clara froze. "You're looking for Maeve?"
"Yes."
Holding the car keys in his hand, Sergio said comfortingly, "Put down the coffee and go to bed. If you need anything, you can talk to Allie."
"But I-"
Clara wanted to say something, but Sergio had already strode off.
Clara felt upset.
Sergio knew that Maeve had hurt her, but he still went out to look for Maeve in the middle of the night..
Clara couldn't understand it. Before Maeve was even part of the picture, Clara was the only person Sergio loved.
Sergio drove along the streets lit up by neon lights, searching for Maeve in the night. Larry called, and he picked up. On the other end of the line, Larry said with hesitation, "Mr. Brooks, the owner of Allure said that Madam had visited his nightclub with Ms. Jansen. After that, Charlie and Zion took them away."
Sergio paused for a moment halfway through his driving. A long while later, he finally said, "Got it." With that, he ended the call.
"So they were taken away by Charlie and Zion?" he thought.
He couldn't help but let out a sneer.
He should have known that Maeve and Zion had a special relationship with each other.
