"Yeah."
Upon hearing Marve''s answer, Sergio put Maeve down and turned to carry ra.
Zion rushed forward and witnessed this scene. He immediately noticed the injury on Marve''s ankle. She seemed to have gotten hurt while trying to break free from the nylon rope
Without any hesitation, Zion approached Maeve and litted her up into his anns.
"What are you doing?" Marve was caught off guard.
Zion walked as he replied, "You''re injured too. Why didn''t you say anything?
"My injury isn''t important." Marve paused and then said, "Besides, he cares more about ra."
Anyone could tell that Sergio''s favoritism toward ra had long surpassed that of a regr friendship. She had to take the hint
"You fool" Zion lifted Maeve gently and said, "Hold onto me tighter.
Maeve kept quiet but held onto Zion tighter.
"Hurry! The bomb is about to go off!" Charlie shouted.
Zion held onto Maeve tightly and rushed out of the abandoned building at thest moment. Within seconds, the abandoned building was engulfed in mes after a deafening explosion "Get in the car!" After setting ra down, Sergio turned to get Maeve, only to see her already in Zion''s car.
"Mr. Brooks, let''s go... I''m terrified."
Sergio sensed ra''s nervousness, so he could only get into the car first.
Meanwhile, Maeve remained indifferent as she witnessed them both in the backseat. It seemed like she was already used to it happening. Marve remained silent throughout the journey. However, Charlie was unable to hold back, and he asked, "Don''t you want to know who kidnapped you?"
"It was Devon," Maeve blurted out the name.
"How did you know?" Charlie was surprised.
"I just guessed," Maeve replied indifferently.
In fact, she had only just thought of Devon. Maeve was well aware of her social connections and couldn''t have possibly offended anyone. Her only recent significant move was buying that piece ofnd for ten billion dors.
If she remembered correctly, Devon had bought that piece ofnd in her previous life. She had obviously affected his ns, However, Devon probably didn''t know the future value of that piece ofnd, so he probably had ulterior motives for wanting it.
Besides, Devon was under Zion. That was why Zion could arrive so promptly.
Marve seized the opportunity and said, "Zion, the people under you just kidnapped me. How are we going to settle this?"
"I owe you for this," Zion said indifferently.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
Charlie nced at Zion from the rearview mirror. He was puzzled by Zion''s intentions
Clearly, Devon''s actions had nothing to do with him. And he had also risked his life to rescue Maeve. How could he still owe her anything now?
Charlle made an abrupt stop in front of the Brooks'' residence, Outside the gate, Sergio carried ra into the mansion without any signs of waiting for
Marve.
"I''ll be going now. Thank you, guys," Maeve said as she opened the car door and walked toward the house alone.
"I thought you would stand up for her," Charlie said.
"She''s not that delicate." Zion closed his eyes and said, "Let''s go."
Inside Brooks Manor, ra was seated on the sofa, and Sergio was in the midst of applying some medicine to her ankle.
As Marve walked in, ra immediately stood up and exined, "Mr. Brooks just wanted to help me with my inpry But before ra cold finish speaking, Sergio Interrupted coldy, "There''s no need to exin anything to her "
