Chapter 472 Besides, Sergio had never intended to keep Claraâs child.
âHande it immediately. I expect results by tomorrow,â Sergio ordered âYes, Mr. Brooks.â
After handing the phone to Larry, Sergio headed straight upstairs.
In the study, Richard anxiously awaited Sergioâs arrival When Sergio entered, Richard approached quickly. âMr. Brooks, my condolences about Ms. Bamozâs baby-â
Sergio cut him off kelly. âTodayâs events should remain private. You understand?â
âOf course. Family matters should stay private. I get itâ Richard nodded vigorously.
But Sergio continued, âI want you to arrest Clara tomorrow â
âYes, yes... wait, what?â Richard looked up, baffled, struggling to comprehend Arrest Clara on the same day he lost his child? How could this be?
âBut... Mr. Brooks, strictly speaking, inducing your own miscarriage isnât a crime. We need a valid reason to arrest her.
âAnd.. you just said you want this kept quiet. Arresting her will cause a scandal Fearful of the repercussions, Richard hesitated.
Sergio fixed him with a cold stare. âShe caused a scene today and falsely accused Maeve just arrest her openly. You can release her the same day. Thatâs all you need to doâ
Richard was baffled but finally saw the path Sergio had laid out for him.
After thinking it over, he said, âGot it. Iâll have Ms. Ramoz brought in for questioning tomorrow. If her miscarriage was accidental, it wonât implicate anyone else. But if it was deliberate.â
Richard thought he had figured out Sergioâs intentions- to frame Maeve for causing Claraâs miscarriage. After all, if Maeve pushed Clara down the stairs, sheâd face charges for intentional hara, But before Richard could finish his words, Sergio grabbed him by the collar and glared at him menacingly. âI said arrest Clara, not frame Maeve! Youâll answer for any implications on Marvelâ
Sergio shoved Richard away forcefully.
Terrified, Richard stammered, â1âEmisjudged your intentions, Mr. Brooks! Iâll handle Ms. Ramozâs arrest first thing tomorrow.â
Once Richard departed, Sergioâs face returned to its usual stole expression.
Larry stood outside and spoke softly, âMr. Brooks, Ms. Stewart is asking that you visit her in the hospitalâ
âIâm not going.â
As Sergioâs words left his mouth, Maeveâs earlier remarks echoed in his mind.
âSheâs your woman, and she just lost your child. Shouldnât you go and check on her?
âSergio, would you just stand there and watch the woman carrying your child die on the operating table..â
Sergio frowned deeply. What did Marveâs last words mean?
