Never See You Again

"Yeah," Sheldon replied.

"Is it related to me?"

"... Sort of," Sheldon said, "This morning, I heard from my brother about some issue at the Brooks Group. It's insider information, so you probably don't know yet."

"Did you purposely visit the school just to gossip about the Brooks'?" Maeve teased.

Sheldon's face flushed uncontrollably, then he turned away and said, "Don't take me wrong. I just wanted to get some news about the Brooks Group from you."

"I don't know much more than you do." Maeve stopped teasing Sheldon and asked, "What exactly happened at the Brooks Group?"

"According to the insider information, some shady financial records from the Brooks Group had leaked out, causing several funding chains to fail. All of their overseas cooperation had halted. It's likely that the Brooks' house will soon be subjected to interrogation. They're probably going to suffer heavy losses."

Maeve immediately thought of Zion when Sheldon mentioned overseas cooperation. Only Zion had such capabilities abroad.

"Are you sure you don't know who did it?" Sheldon tried to discem something from Marve's expression.

Maeve raised an eyebrow and said, "I wouldn't be the last one in class to find out if I knew who did it." It's quite ridiculous that Maeve, as Mrs. Brooks, was slower to discover Brooks' Group news than outsiders.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

"A few days ago, I saw you and Sergio putting on a show in the media. Weren't you deeply in love? How come he didn't even tell you about the company's crises?"

As Maeve noticed a hint of sourness in Sheldon's tone, she said, "Well you're also aware that it was just a show. When have you seen me deeply in love with him?"

"Just last time..." Sheldon paused as he remembered the scene of Maeve fainting in his arms and Brooks carrying her away. He then shut his mouth as he had decided not to bring it up again Maeve frowned, "Which time?"

"I'we provided you with such important news. How do you plan to thank me?" Sheldon avoided her question.

"I can buy you a meal" Maeve took out a credit card, "I'm rich lately."

Apart from this class, almost no one in the school knew she was Sergio's wife. She had painstakingly crafted an ordinary graduate student life by trying to minimize her presence at this school. After all, there were only so many people in this circle, and she didn't want to attract too much attention. She would be in huge trouble if Hailey found out she was studying at Amenam University,

Sheldon wasn't shy from it either. He found the most expensive restaurant in Amenam University for lunch as if he was afraid that people wouldn't realize that he was dining with Sergio's wife, Sheldon frowned, "What? You're so reluctant to treat me to a meal with your money?

Of course, Maeve wasn't reluctant to spend her money. It's just that most of the people sat there were wealthy students from elite families. They will surely attract attention if she and Sheldon go in together. "Mr. Sheldon, that restaurant over there is actually pretty good, and it's reasonably priced. Why don't we

"Stop talking nonsense and come in!" Sheldon interrupted and dragged Maeve into the restaurant.

As soon as Maeve stepped in, she saw a familiar figure. Clara was sitting in the most noticeable position in the restaurant, with Jenny and Tiffany beside her. The two no longer looked hostile when they saw Maeve.
