Never See You Again

Maeve pretended to sip her water casually when her phone buzzed with a call from Lyra, She heard Lyra's urgent voice on the other end." Maeve! Is Sergio with you, by any chance?" "What's going on?" Maeve asked.

"That bastard! He's been stirring up trouble in my company these past few days! I have to teach him a lesson!" Lyra exclaimed.

"What do you mean?" Maeve frowned. "Sergio targeted your company?"

During her visit to Brooks Manor three days earlier, Lyra had left early due to urgent matters at her company. But she never imagined Sergio would actually target Lyra's company because of Clara. "It's unbelievable! I initially suspected rival companies, but many investors have pulled out lately. I can't seal a single deal.

"Finally, I confronted one of them and revealed that Sergio was behind it. Apparently, anyone who invests in the Jansens is against him!" Lyra's voice grew more furious, while Maeve's expression darkened,

She knew Sergio's tactics, but she never anticipated he would go to such lengths for Clara. After all, everyone knew that Lyra was Kurt Spencer's granddaughter. As going against the Jansens was equivalent to offending Kurt, Sergio shouldn't have targeted Lyra, no matter how foolish he was,

"Don't worry, I'll take care of it," Maeve reassured Lyra before ending the call.

Initially, she wasn't planning to target Sergio and Clara. But now, she realized she had been too lenient as Sergio had no plans of letting Lyra

off easily.

Now, Sergio shouldn't blame her for being ruthless. He should blame himself instead for stirring up trouble in the first place.

Moments later, Maeve stood up and walked towards the restaurant's exit. Sure enough, Maeve saw Sergio getting a milkshake for Clara just outside. They walked side by side, and Clara was even hugging Sergio. Without hesitation, she discreetly captured a photo with her phone.

Sergio probably sensed someone taking a picture of them and glanced in Maeve's direction. Unfazed, Maeve casually waved her phone in front

of them

Upon seeing this, Sergio immediately rushed towards Maeve to snatch her phone. However, Maeve swiftly tucked it away. Sergio didn't dare to use force as there were many people around,

Clara also hurriedly approached to grab Sergio's arm. She pleaded with Maeve, "Maeve, I've already left the Brooks Manor. Please don't put Mr. Brooks in a tough spot!"

"Really? Thon, explain this," Maeve retorted.

Clara's face turned pale. "L. I just didn't know what to do, so..."

Maeve asked, "Are you clinging to Sergio now for money or sympathy?

Clara's expression soured. "Maeve, that's not what I meant!"NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

"Stop it, Maeve!" Sergio frowned. "Clara's injured and got kicked out now because of you. Show some compassion!"

"Me? Compassion?" Maeve sneered. "You didn't seem to care about showing compassion when you went after the Jansens!"

Sergio's expression darkened. "Actions have consequences. I'm just teaching her a lesson."

"Consequences? Clara got hit by a car herself. Why blame Lyra? Clara had disrupted the Jansens' property launching event and insulted me in front of everyone.

"I haven't even confronted her yet and now you're defending her. You both disgust me!" Maeve said,

Sergio's expression darkened, while Clara cried and said, "Marve, I don't understand why you're saying this. I sincerely wanted to apologize to Ms. Jansen, but she accused me of being a homewrecker withou even listening to my side of the story... There's nothing going on between Mr. Brooks and me, we're innocent!"

"Sure, crying in his arms and refusing to leave the Brooks Manor-is that your definition of innocence?" Maeve asked.
