Halley’s eyes widened in shock as she heard Sergio’s outrageous promises. She whirled around to face him, and she sternly demanded, “Sergio, is this true?

Sergio knew Maeve was pushing his buttons on purpose, but he decided to play along. “Maeve enjoys her job. Let her do what makes her happy, Grandma, you don’t need to worry about”

Sergio guided Marve through Brooks Estate, a place with a long history and numerous renovations.

Marie’s thoughts drifted to the secrets of the four major families. Unfortunately, since the Brooks family had risen to prominence later, it probably had no connection to them White Merwe was lost in thought, Sergio had already led her to a room on the top floor. The walls were adorned with photos of Sergio’s parents and grandparents, with two wooden memorial plages hanging above them.

Marw was puzzled. “Are those for your great–grandparents?”
