Chapter 307 

“What rules? Do you even know who you’ve arrested? Do you still want to remain as the chief?” 

Hailey’s words left Richard feeling utterly embarrassed in front of his subordinates. 

In an instant, Richard’s demeanor shifted from composed to intense, his palm crashing down on the table in frustration. “Mrs. Brooks Senior, mind your tongue. My position as chief isn’t up for debate. 

“Do you think the Brooks family can rule over everything? Our investigations abide by the law. If you continue to cause trouble, I’ll have you escorted out!” 

Hailey didn’t expect Richard to be so disrespectful. She glared at him in disbelief. “You!” 

“Mr. Carter, there’s no need to be mad.” At the side was Zion, who intervened calmly, “Mr. Brooks is a prominent figure. Arresting him in such a manner won’t serve well I suggest releasing him after documenting the proceedings.” 

Richard agreed, saying, “We will, of course, proceed following the law.” 

At the sight of this scene, Hailey turned grim. 

Zion continued, “But Mrs. Brooks Senior doesn’t seem to understand the protocol. Perhaps a lesson from your team would enlighten her.” Zion’s 

suggestion 

ion sent a chill down Halley’s spine. Cecilia frowned. “Mr. Spencer, Mrs. Brooks Senior is elderly. Don’t be too harsh on her!” Seeing Zion disregarding Cecilia, Richard approached and asked, “And who might you be, young lady? While I’ll excuse Mrs. Brooks Senior’s misunderstanding for her age, do you share the same ignorance?” 

“…” Cecilia hesitated, unsure of how to respond. 

Hailey intervened, asserting, “Cecilia is destined to be a part of the Brooks family. Mr. Carter, watch your words. Once Sergio is released, you’ll have to face the consequences!” 

Richard, still wary of Sergio’s power, hesitated upon Hailey’s declaration about Cecilia being the future Mrs. Brooks. He struggled to respond, not wanting to escalate matters further.

Maeve chuckled lightly at the remark. “Mrs. Brooks Senior, becoming a daughter–in–law in your Brooks family seems quite effortless. Why 

constant turnover? 

“I recall not long ago, Ms. Stewart, pregnant and all, claimed she’d marry into the Brooks family. Is Sergio planning to have two wives now?” Hailey sneered, “This is our family’s matter. It’s none of your business.” 

Just as Hailey finished her words, Sergio emerged from the interrogation room. His gaze fell upon Maeve, his expression inscrutable. 

Seeing Sergio, Hailey felt einboldened. “Can we go, Mr. Carter?” 

“Mr. Carter, we’ve interrogated him. The allegations of kidnapping and rape appear to be credible. Should we press charges?” 

“What charges?” Hailey fumed. 

“Have you all lost your minds? Can’t you see that the future daughter–in–law of the Brooks family is here? Sergio already has a fiancée. 

“How could he possibly resort to kidnapping his ex–wife? Are you being coerced into making false accusations?” 

With that, Hailey’s gaze shifted accusingly to Zion, as if insinuating his involvement. 

Taking the cue, Cecilia spoke up, “Mr. Carter, there must be a misunderstanding. Sergio and I are deeply in love. He wouldn’t betray me and commit such acts.” 

“How peculiar. The man who begged me not to divorce him is now madly in love with Ms. Hoffman, 

“It seems Mr. Brooks is quite erratic. Perhaps he’s made similar promises to all women,” Maeve remarked, her gaze fixed on Sergio. 

Sergio’s eyes remained locked on Maeve. He said, “My heart belongs to one person, my wife, Maeve Scott.” 

“Sergio! Are you insane?” Hailey’s complexion turned pale, and even Cecilia, who had tried to defend Sergio moments ago, paled at his words.
