Chapter 398 Chapter 398 Gaby stepped back, she didnât attempt to intervene. In no time, a blackcar pulled up.
The trainees who came out from the cafeteria witnessed the scene where Maeve got into the vehicle.
âI told you, thereâs someone backing up Marvel she must have someone spending money on her to be taken away at this hour!â
âAnd just a moment ago, Gaby was covering for her. We trainees hardly ever leave the training room, while Maeve is the only exception.
Meanwhile, in the cat, Maeve called the director of the hospital.
Upon answering Maeveâs call, the director immediately assured her, âMs. Scott, the situation is a little serious, but donât worry, thereâs no injury on his face.â
âIâm asking if heâs alright, not his face!â
âHeâs. Heâs alright now. Heâs free from danger,â the director replied cautiously.
Maeve hung up the phone and tumed to Zayla. âExplain the whole situation to me.â
âAlright. This morning, when Bryce was on his way to Hackett Entertainment, he got into a car accident. The brakes of the car had been tampered with. Someone must have done this on purpose.â
âWhat happened next? Has the culprit been caught?â
âThe culprit has been caught, but...â Zayla hesitated, âIt turns out that the culprit is mentally unstable. Sheâs also a fan of Bryceâs and has been obsessed with him for quite some time. Her mental state is questionable, so it might be difficult to get her convicted.â
âSo, youâre telling me that the culprit is a deranged fan. Does that sound normal to you?â Maeve quickly realized that someone had taken advantage of her absence to hurt Bryce.
At that moment, Marveâs phone rang, displaying an unknown number.
Maeve answered the call, only to hear Claraâs mocking voice. âDid you like the gift I sent you, Maeve?!
Maeveâs pupils contracted when she heard Claraâs voice âYou were once the daughter of the Scott family, and you have nothing now. Iâll make you lose even more!â
âYouâre the one who did that to Bryce?â The call ended as soon as Maeve asked the question.
This time, Clara was cautious, perhaps she was wary of the phone call being recorded.
As Maeve stated at her phone, thoughts of the dream she had flashed through her mind, causing her to grip the device tightly.
She was furious at Clara.
Meanwhile, in a luxurious apartment, Clara lounged on the sofa in a seductive black nightgown.
She had a smug expression on her face after ending the call.
However, as soon as Conner entered the living room and saw Clara in such an attice, he furrowed his brows.
Upon seeing Conner enter, Claraâs face lit up with delight.
She immediately rushed into his arms, her eyes filled with coyness. âYou re back I got some red wine for you. Would you like to have some?â
Conner glanced at the woman in his arms. His eyes hinted at tenderness, but a coldness lingered beneath it. âThe doctor said pregnant women shouldnât drink alcohol. Be a good girl and go to bed.â
Clara pouted with a hint of complaint in her tone. âBut I want to drink with you!â
she shook Connerâs arm, but he showed no signs of giving in. âItâs late. Go to sleep,â
Clara felt dissatisfied. Conner had been fulfilling her wishes recently, but he always avoided physical touch.
Feeling wronged, she said, âAre you disgusted with me because Iâm pregnant with someone elseâs child? I can get rid of this baby If you want.â
Connerâs eyes flashed with disgust at Claraâs words, but he restrained himself. âDonât say such things. This is your child, and mine too, in the future. Iâll take care of it, so donât overthink.â
âBut...â
âIâm tired, Go to sleep.â
