Chapter 259

Halley, who had fallen asleep, heard the noise at the door. So, she had Cecilia help her to the entrance.
When she arrived at the living room, she saw the grim–looking Sergio.
She furrowed her brows slightly and asked, “What’s wrong with you?”
“Come here!” Sergio went forward and pulled Cecilia, looking fierce.
Cecilia had never seen Sergio this furious before, so she was startled.
“Sergio, what are you doing?”
“Stop calling me! How could you be this vicious and replace the ten billion dollars?”

“The best for me?”
Sergio took a step back, his broken expression gradually turned cold.
He had always been calm, but he couldn’t t remain the same when it was something related to Marve

Sergio didn’t turn around despite Hailey’s request.
Hailey snapped, “He’s going against me! Maeve is such a jinx! I shouldn’t have allowed her to marry into the Brooks family back then!”
