Never See You Again (Sergio and Maeve) novel Chapter 416

Sergio's expression darkened as he spoke in a cold tone, "Grandma, it's time for you to leave."

"What? Sergio, are you seriously going to lecture your own grandmother now?"

"Larry, escort her out!" Sergio commanded.

With Sergio's firm tone leaving no room for argument, Larry nervously approached Hailey. "Mrs. Brooks Senior, please—"

"Get lost!" Hailey snapped. She brushed off Larry's hand and stepped forward to confront Maeve with a cold smile.

"Maeve, I know the Scott family is bankrupt, and you're desperate for money now. But you and Sergio are already in the process of divorcing.

"Let's settle this here and now. As long as I'm breathing, you'll never set foot in the Brooks family again! And don't even think about getting a penny when it comes to marital assets!"

"Grandma!" Sergio's temples bulged with veins as he was clearly enraged.

Larry quickly intervened, "Mrs. Brooks Senior, please return before you further upset Mr. Brooks!"

Before Larry could act, Maeve interjected icily, "Alright, let's get this straight. Have your precious grandson sign the divorce papers, and we can be done. I've sent over a dozen copies, but unfortunately, Mr. Brooks shredded every single one.

"I don't get why he's dragging his feet. Well, maybe he enjoys the suffering. Even though I've made myself clear, he still refuses to divorce me."

Maeve's words stabbed at Hailey, who cherished the Brooks family's reputation.

Quickly, she retorted, "Are you suggesting Sergio doesn't want to divorce you? That's ridiculous. The Scott family is bankrupt, and you remain so arrogant.

"Well, I heard you've even taken up a trainee position at Hackett Group to pay off your debts. Pfft! A scion from the prestigious Scott family stooping to such a lowly role—it's quite shocking!"

Hailey's mocking remarks infuriated Sergio completely. He shouted, "Larry! Are you just going to stand there? Get her out of here!"
