Chapter 311 Nevaeh Goes Crazy
Nevaeh’s case caused a stir and attracted the attention of many netizens, creating a huge wave on video websites. Even Maisy, who didn’t usually pay attention to real-time hot topics, had seen it.
She looked at the photo on the video in disbelief, even zooming in on the face with a screenshot.
It was indeed Nevaeh without a doubt.
Oh my god! How could this be?!
Maisy was stunned for a moment, her hand holding the phone was trembling. She clicked on the comments section and saw another link with the title, “Timeline of Suspect Nevaeh’s Crime”.
The article recorded what crimes she had been convicted of in the past few years. Each one was astonishing. Most of them were stuff she already knew.
“How… how is this possible?!” She flipped through it for a long time, the more she read, the more her face wrinkled into a ball. In the end, she was so angry that she passed out.
How could Nevaeh have deceived her for so long? Luckily, that woman had been controlled by the police, or there might be more innocent people being harmed by her. And who knew who would become the next target of her?
Maisy trembled with emotion as she thought about her past intimacy with Nevaeh, and immediately made a decision. She must go and ask that woman in person since she still couldn’t accept the fact that Nevaeh deceived her in the first place.
Maisy glanced at the address on the news and hurriedly grabbed her bag before leaving. As she looked at various messages on her phone along the way, she became increasingly angry, feeling that Nevaeh didn’t have any conscience.
When she arrived at the detention centre, she couldn’t help but tremble. She didn’t know how to judge people. When Nevaeh was brought out, she saw Maisy outside the partition and her eyes lit up, causing her to quicken her pace.
“Maisy… Maisy! You finally come to see me!”
Nevaeh now had serious injuries on her face, and the excited expression made her face look even more fierce. “I… I have been wrongly accused. Can you help me talk to Sion and plead for forgiveness? Please!”
Maisy’s gaze first fell on the handcuffs on her wrist, and compared to before, she now looked like neither human nor ghost. She didn’t hide her disgust in her eyes and spat directly.
“Nevaeh, how dare you say you’re innocent?!”
In the past, she had treated her with such sincerity, but she didn’t know how many times she had been taken advantage of. And now Nevaeh wanted to use her again. This woman must be dreaming.
Nevaeh felt Maisy’s disgust for her, looking like a fool without any reaction. Her eyes were bulging out as if they were about to pop.
After a while, Nevaeh burst into laughter and said, “When you all die, Sion will be mine! His money and his people will belong to me…”
“Are you insane?!” Maisy could tell that something was off with Nevaeh’s mental state but was also angered by what came out of her mouth. “Damn, you! It’s your karma now! A woman as malicious as you deserve to rot in jail!”
After cursing at her, Maisy hung up the phone feeling frustrated.
Nevaeh was pulled back away by the police since she had lost her mind.
Maisy rubbed herself down after leaving the detention centre, feeling contaminated from being around someone who had done so much wrong. Thinking that Sion must have been furious, Maisy decided to check on him immediately.

David walked out of his office just in time for them to collide face-to-face. He politely greeted Maisy before confirming that Sion was inside.
“David, go back to work. I’ll see my son myself.”
David hesitated before nodding his head and walking away with some files in hand.
Maisy took a moment to compose herself before walking into Sion’s office, where he sat holding his forehead looking worried. With Nevaeh behind bars now, if it wasn’t about the company, then it must be Aurora.
Thinking this made Maisy feel uneasy because deep down inside she was regretful-there were plenty of times when Nevaeh caused trouble for Aurora.
Who knew it would end up being such an expensive mistake?
“Sion,” She approached him wearing an awkward smile. “You’re always working hard, have you eaten yet? Mom came by just passing through town.”
Sion glanced at her, a bit surprised. He took his hand off his forehead and furrowed his eyebrows slightly. “Where are you going that happens to be on the way here?”
Maisy’s smile froze for a moment, for Sion busted her pretence directly.
Did her son get triggered by something?
“Well, Mom saw some news about Nevaeh online.” She explained with a smile.
As soon as Sion heard this, he frowned tightly. “Don’t mention that woman again.”
Maisy looked at him and had no choice but to sit down on her own. “Can’t Mom come and check up on you?”
“Sure,” Sion nodded. “I’m fine. You should go home and rest first, Mom. I still have work to do.”
His tone of voice was normal enough, but Maisy knew her son well enough to pout and say, “Don’t think I don’t know that you feel even more guilty towards Aurora because of Nevaeh’s situation. Unfortunately, no matter how much you try to make it up to her she won’t pay any attention!”
This sentence hit Sion directly in the heart. He looked up at Maisy with hope for the first time that his mother would say something useful. But Maisy always had a talent for disappointing people. What she said next only made things worse, “If she doesn’t care about you then forget her! Why hang yourself on one crooked tree when there are so many women who would love your attention…”
“Mom,”
Sion pinched the bridge of his nose with irritation growing inside him. He regretted having any expectations just now.
“If you’re not busy then why don’t you go shopping or something? I still have work.” He said calmly while looking at the time. “I have a meeting in two minutes which will last around two hours before going straight away to see my client…”
“Okay okay!”
Maisy’s head buzzed as soon as she heard this. She stood up immediately saying, “I’ll leave now then! Can’t expect anything from you anyway!”
As soon as she left though, an idea came into mind causing her eyes to light up like stars in an instant.
