Never See You Again

Maeve smiled faintly and said, “Mrs. Brooks Senior, I’ve recently bought a new house closer to my workplace. Sergio knows about it, and we’ve both agreed on it. There’s no need for you to get involved.”

“Mrs. Brooks Senior, don’t you trust me? The contract is right here. If anything is missing, I’ll have to cover the full amount.”

Maeve continued dismissively, “Besides, Sergio and I are married now. I can spend his money as I please. Do you really think I care about this little suitcase, Mrs. Brooks Senior?”

Hailey felt a pang of discomfort at Maeve’s bragging. She couldn’t understand why Sergio could fall for such a woman.

Allie, holding the leather suitcase, asked, “Mrs. Brooks, this suitcase is quite heavy. Should I take it over for you?”

“No need. Someone will help with it shortly.” As Marve spoke, she stood up.

Hearing the sound of a car engine outside, Maeve said, “Allie, there’s no need for you to take it. My car is here, so I’ll be off.”

Allie was worried Maeve couldn’t carry the leather suitcase alone and was about to offer help when Hailey snapped, “Let her go. If she says she doesn’t need help, we won’t offer any! If she ends up with a lover or two, it’s none of our business.”

Maeve ignored Hailey’s insinuation and carried the leather suitcase outside, where Zion naturally got out of the car and put the leather suitcase in the

Trunk

Hailey watched the scene through the floor–to–ceiling window. With a frown, she asked, “Who is that driver? Have we seen him before?”

“I don’t think he’s one of our drivers, Allie replied. From a distance, she could only make out a tall figure with a handsome profile.

Halley said, “Maeve and Sergio have been at odds for a while now. Do you think she hasn’t been seeing anyone else?”

“Mrs. Brooks Senior, Mrs. Brooks isn’t that kind of person…”

Hailey grew displeased. “Why are you always defending her?”

“I”

“Never mind.” Hailey waved her hand dismissively. “Keep an eye on Maeve. Don’t let her do anything that will disgrace the Brooks family. If she is seeing someone else, I don’t care if the family profits or not. Sergio must divorce her by then!”

“Yes, Mrs. Brooks Senior.”

“And if you find any evidence, report to me immediately,” Hailey said coldly. “I want to make Maeve regret ever stepping foot into the Brooks family!”

Yes.

Meanwhile, Zion helped fasten Maeve’s seatbelt. “Is everything settled?”

“Yes, and look what I found! Maeve flashed a ring in front of Zion. “This used to belong to royalty. I think there’s a big secret here.”
