My Love Until the Last Goodbye (Mary and Maximus) novel Chapter 768

Chapter 0768 

“In the end, they twisted everything to push the Moriarty family out of the business. 

“The story Catherine told you was true, but the Palmers weren’t the saviors. The truth is, they came to steal the Moriartys‘ place. Your grandmother and great–grandparents created a lie to cover up the crimes your ancestors committed. 

“Anthony Moriarty doesn’t just want to bury the Levett name–he wants the Palmer name erased as well. He wants those names to be associated with shame, not pride. That’s why I pushed you to change your last name to mine. Now that you’re officially an Evans, I don’t have to worry about your future.” 

“What about Peter? He’s still a Palmer.” 

“Peter will come out of this untouched–I can guarantee that. In the end, he was a victim, and that’s exactly how he’ll be seen.” 

“I don’t like how secretive everything has been. I feel trapped, like I have no idea what’s coming next.” 

“Maximus, focus on your brother. Convince him to have the surgery. Once all of this is over, he’s going to need it. And don’t forget–you promised Mary you’d help her. Marcus was furious at first, but by now, he must have calmed down. She needs to go back to her family. Her children need her.”

“With this news, I’m sure he’ll be back soon.” 

“You think so?” 

“Of course. It’s his family’s name they’re trying to restore don’t forget that.”

“Marcus, I think it’s time for you to return to Valentia.” 

“Why? You know I can’t go back–not after what I’ve done. 

“Take a look at this,” Frederick said, handing him the tablet. 

The screen displayed a breaking news article: 

[Breaking News: Frank Levett, son of the infamous Judge Levett, has been arrested. He faces multiple charges, including human trafficking, organ trafficking, drug trafficking, abuse of power, attempted murder, and rape. The country is in shock as the depth of these crimes is revealed. 

Four months ago, Judge Anthony Moriarty reopened the case of the Bartz family massacre, in which the sole survivor was Marcus Bartz. Levett Jr. had previously accused Bartz of kidnapping his father, the ruthless Judge 

Levett.] 

Marcus read the article in silence, his expression unreadable. Frederick sighed. 

“This has already begun, Marcus. You might need to be there for the trial. Anthony is following through on his promise–he’s going to clear your family’s name.” 

“It’s been so long, Frederick, I don’t even know if that’s possible anymore. I’m the only Bartz left from my generation. Even if my name is cleared, nothing will bring…”
