Chapter 305 Cecilia looked at Maeve with a hint of smugness in her eyes.
Noticing this, Maeve couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.
It seemed Hailey had struck a deal with Cecilia. With Cecilia's confident demeanor, it wouldn't be long before she entered the Brooks family as Mrs. Brooks "Hold on." Zion's unexpected interruption halted Hailey, who turned back with a puzzled expression.
Her eyes filled with disdain as she looked at Zion. "What's wrong? You're just a mere illegitimate child of the Spencer family. Do you have the guts to lecture me?" "You're right." Zion's seemingly casual remark stirred a whirlwind of emotions within Maeve, Hailey was an elder and a prominent figure in Seathburn City. Men might wage business wars, but this was a matter between women. Yet, Zion still stood up for her.

"You've betrayed Sergio, and now you've hitched your wagon to Zion, right? No wonder you're so eager for a divorce. You must have thought you'd found yourself a better catch!" "Mrs. Brooks Senior, I respect you as an elder, so I usually give you sleeway. But don't push it. If you go too far, I won't hold back," Maeve sakl In her past life, she had poured her heart and soul into treating Hailey, but it had ended in tragedy. People of the Brooks family were inherently ruthless.
Maeve had refrained from retaliating against Hailey out of respect for her age, but that didn't mean she could insult her openly.
"Well, I'd like to see how you'll deal with me! Do you think Seathburn City is a wall in the park? Is the Brooks family easy to push around? If you dare to lay a finger on me, Serwill never let you off!" With that, Halley dragged Cecilia toward the palice station.
Maeve glanced at Zion and asked, “Did you really consider laying hands on her just now?" "Hit an old woman?" Zion frowned. "I haven't done it before, but I could give it a try." "Seriously?" "Don't worry. Violence is the weakest measure." Zion patted Maeve's head and said, "Since she had the guts to insult you, I'll make her witness the consequences of her actions and regret everything she's done tonight." "Mr. Spencer, Ms. Scott, are you going in?" The nearby police officer asked.
Maeve nodded, and Zion embraced her as they walked inside.
Inside, Hailey assumed an air of authority, coldly saying, "I'll wait here for your chief to come!" "Mrs. Brooks Senior, we're not trying to make things difficult. It's just that Mr. Carter has something urgent today and can't cover..." "Tell him that Hailey from the Brooks family is here! Tell him to cto me!" "Mrs. Brooks Senior, why can't you seem to understand..." The police officers' impatience grew.
At this moment, Maeve and Zion walked in, and the person next to them approached Zion and said, "Mr. Spencer, Ms. Scott, you've finally arrived. Please, cin!" The contrast in their attitudes before and after was shocking- up and go go!" Hailey's composure cracked. "I told you to call your chief over! Can't you understand? Hurry up "Why can't you understand what we're saying? Listen up, Granny. Mr. Carter has something to attend to and can't come!" Chapter 306 1/1 Chapter 306 "You! How dare you speak tolike that?” Halley had never been addressed with such impatience by an outsider before, and the humiliation made her tremble with anger.
"I've been very polite to you! Ever since you walked in, you've demanded to meet the chief. Do you think Mr. Carter is available to anyone? You are simply outrageous!" "You..." Hailey pointed at the person in front of her, trembling in fury.
"Who do you think you are? This is a police station, not a place for you to act out!" Halley's vision blurred with fury. Seeing this, Zion raised a hand to silence the officer Zion spoke calmly, "We should treat our elders with respect." "I apologize for my attitude," the officer said sheepishly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZion smiled. "Well, if Mrs. Brooks Senior wants to see your chief, have him cover."
"Yes, Mr. Spencer, I'll call Mr. Carter immediately." The officer hurried out to make the call and returned shortly ΝΩ after breathless. "Mr. Spencer, Mr. Carter said he'll be here soon. Please wait here for a moment.” Hailey's expression turned grim at the sight. Zion was making it clear that her authority in Seathburn City was nothing compared to his! Hailey slammed her hand on the table. "Well, well, Richard Carter! You clearly have no respect for me! "Has he forgotten how he tried to curry favor withwhen he was just a sergeant? And now he won't even listen to me?" Cecilia tried to calm Hailey down, saying, "Mrs. Brooks Senior, don't get agitated. You can reprimand Mr. Carter when he arrives!" Halley's anger simmered slightly at Cecilia's words. Meanwhile, Maeve observed with a cold sneer.
Hailey had always been pampered and worshipped, so she was perhaps unaware of her waning influence in Seathburn City Rowadays. Back then, Richard was just a sergeant who needed to curry favor with Halley. But now, as the police chief, he had no reason to bow to her whims As expected, Richard arrived shortly after. Upon seeing Zion, he approached immediately. "I heard you wanted to see me, Mr. Spencer. What can I do for you? I'll do my best to help." Zion glanced at Hailey, and Richard understood. After catching sight of Hailey, his expression changed slightly. "Mrs. Brooks Senior, were you looking for me?"
Halley shot Richard a cold look. "Mr.
Carter, I see you've been quite well off. I asked someone to call you and they couldn't even manage that." Riehard's displeasure towards Hailey's attitude was evident, but he kept his composure in front of Zion.
"Mrs. Brooks Senior, what do you need?" Hailey stood up in anger. "Your people brought in my grandson. Do you call that nothing? Tell them to release Sernow!" Richard said, "So it's about this matter. It isn't easy, you see. We have rules to follow." Area - Registration Free Deepen Dis with Singles on CouldSee! Registration Is Free! X
