Never See You Again (Sergio and Maeve) novel Chapter 454

Serena watched anxiously at Cathy, waiting for her to stab the sharp blade into Maeve's neck. But Cathy's grip on the blade faltered.

As Cathy withdrew her threat, guards swiftly intervened and pulled her away.

Maeve stepped back, and Sergio hurried forward to inspect her for injuries.

His eyes caught a prominent red mark on her collarbone, causing him to pause momentarily.

"I'm fine. Thank you, Mr. Brooks," Maeve said, adjusting her clothes. With that, she distanced herself from Sergio.

Serena's expression soured as she stared intensely at Cathy, who stood caught in the moment. She wondered why Cathy hadn't followed through with the attack on Maeve's neck.

Cathy shot a cold glare back at Serena as if seeing through her malicious intentions.

Her stare made Serena panicked. She hadn't anticipated the consequences if Cathy failed to harm Maeve and exposed their scheme.

Since Cathy hadn't harmed Maeve, her incriminating words could lead to suspicion and alert Maeve of their plans.

"Mr. Brooks, what should we do with her?" one of the guards inquired.

Sergio's chilly voice cut through, "Take her to the police station."

"Hold on," Maeve interjected. "Leave her with me. I had something to ask her."

Her gaze lingered pointedly on Serena as she finished speaking.

Serena's heart sank. She was certain Maeve had seen through her involvement, suspecting she had directed Cathy.

"Proceed as she says," Sergio instructed.

With that, the guards escorted Cathy backstage.

Unable to stay seated, Serena approached Maeve with concern. "Are you alright, Mrs. Brooks? Are you hurt?"

Maeve remained indifferent as Serena reached out to hold her hands. Pulling her hands back, she uttered, "Thanks, Ms. Norman."

"Come with me," Sergio chimed, leading Maeve away.
