After Divorce She Becomes the Billionaire Heiress (Sylvia and Cyril) novel Chapter 508

Chapter 508 

Maeve rose, and her face flushed with anger. 

“How could you not know? You’re the head of the Hackett family, with access to so much information. The fact that you know about these events proves you’ve been investigating all these years. You must know who’s behind it!” 

Levi was suddenly seized by a violent coughing 

Seeing this, Maeve realized she had been too harsh. She immediately stepped forward to help him catch his breath. 

“I–I just want to know who killed my parents,” she stammered. 

“Maeve, stop asking.” Levi said, his face pallid and lined with exhaustion. “It wouldn’t change anything even if you knew. Isn’t it better to find peace and move on with your life?” 

“I’m the heiress of the Scott family, and it was my parents who were killed. I have the right to know everything!” she blurted. 

Seeing Maeve’s resolve, Levi gripped the table’s edge, straining to support himself as he leaned heavily against his wheelchair 

“I can share about the four major families, but I truly don’t know who killed your parents, just like I’m still clueless about who was responsible for the deaths of Mr. and Mrs Spencer after the long search,” he uttered. 

Levi’s expression appeared earnest and truthful. 

After a moment of silence, Maeve inquired, “Do you know the full story about those four families from back then?” 

“I have a general understanding of it,” Levd replied. 

“The Spencers, with their military power, held absolute authority. The Hacketts, on the other hand, possessed the strongest network. The Scott family, under Mr. Otis Scott’s leadership, served as renowned strategists. 

“Meanwhile, the Fosters, who began as deputies to the Spencers, were known for their wealth and close bonds to the Spencers, making their place among the four major families 

Maeve listened quietly. She had heard Philip mention the Scott family’s former glory under Otis‘ leadership. It was his astute planning that had allowed the Scotts to settle down and establish such a formidable business in Seathburn City 

Levicontinued, “The Spencers, Hacketts, Scotts, and Fosters worked as one, dominating Seathburn City together. 

“There were rumors that their rapid rise to power was fuelled by a treasure from the late 17th century, which gave them immense wealth. With such financial might, it was effortless for them to dominate the city.” 

“A treasure from the late 17th century? That’s unbelievable.“Maeve commented, incredulous, but Levi’s steady gaze kept her from dismissing it outright. “Please, continue. 1 won’t interrupt.” 

“Though it sounds impossible, such rumors often have a basis in truth. Seathburn City does harbor a secret that has drawn the attraction of many covetous eyes. The Normans abroad and the Jeffersons in Lentimas City are two examples.” 

Levi’s words left Maeve deep in thought. 

This shed light on a mystery that had long troubled her: why Conner, despite his comfortable life in Lentimas City, would spend over a decade trying to ingratiate himself with the Ramez family just to gain a foothold in Seathbar City.
