I Stopped Loving Him When He Let Me Bleed Out novel Chapter 467

Maeve paused for a single second, and in that moment, the entire room held its breath.

"I am Finn Fletcher's biological mother."

That one sentence instantly set the venue ablaze.

Finn sat rigidly in his chair, listening to Maeve publicly declare herself his biological mother.

Strangely enough, a profound calmness washed over him.

He stared at her poised back, realizing she was standing there taking every single arrow aimed at him.

The deafening uproar of the crowd faded into nothingness.

It was quiet—unnervingly quiet.

He felt completely enveloped in a vacuum.

He could see the reporters' mouths opening and closing in a frenzy, but he couldn't hear a sound.

A splitting headache ripped through his skull like a drill grinding against his brain, but he forced himself onto his feet.

When he spoke, his voice rang with absolute clarity.

"Today's press conference was scheduled to address operational updates regarding the Westside project. Your questions have vastly deviated from that topic.

Unless you have further inquiries about the development, this concludes our time together."

"Mr. Fletcher, Ms. Thorne claims to be your biological mother. When did you find out?"

"Did you only recently confirm your relationship?"

"Does your father know?"

The questions crashed against the stage like a tidal wave.

Finn looked out over the crowd, his expression completely unfazed.

"Starting today, I will no longer publicly address any inquiries regarding my personal life. The Fletcher Corporation's legal department is on full alert. Every instance of malicious rumormongering, defamation, and character assassination will be meticulously accounted for and dealt with in court."

Maeve turned her head to look at him.

Her eyes were like ancient wells—calm, impossibly deep, and utterly unrippled.

Finn simply turned on his heel, walked off the stage, and beckoned Terrence over.

"Did you find them?" he demanded in a low register.

Terrence hurried over, keeping his voice down.

"Pinned them down. The car didn't make it out; they're still inside."

Finn didn't break his stride.

"Lead the way."

Deep inside the underground parking garage.
