Chapter 107
Maeve was confused when Sheldon had already pulled her into a seat and started ordering.
"Tiffany, Jenny, you two are my best friends in this university. I realized I was wrong about what happened last time, so I invited you to dinner to apologize. I hope you guys can forgive me.
"I misspoke last time. I'm truly sorry," Clara said, her attention entirely focused on Jenny and Tiffany as she hadn't noticed Maeve yet.
Maeve sat in the comer and quietly listened to Clara's apology.
"My boyfriend bought me a house just across from the school. Living alone can be dull, so why don't you guys move in with me? You're my best friends after all." Clara held the hands of the two with a sincere expression.
Maeve almost burst out laughing as she heard her words. So, Sergio was the boyfriend Clara was referring to. It all made sense now.
If Clara really wanted to apologize to them, she would have treated them long ago, not now. It was just that she wanted to show off the house Sergio bought in front of them, which explained why she chose to say these things in the most upscale restaurant at Amenam University.
"Why are you spacing out? Order something," Sheldon looked at Maeve with confusion.
Maeve snapped back and said, "Just order me some green tea, I suddenly miss the taste of green tea."Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
"Huh?" Sheldon looked bewildered.
Meanwhile, Tiffany asked, "Are you talking about the neighborhood where that woman used to live?" She glanced subtly at Maeve not far away after finishing her words.
Clara didn't notice it and continued, "Yes, that neighborhood. We couldn't get in last time, but my boyfriend bought me a house there after he found out. I thought of you guys as soon as I moved in."
"Did you think of us or did you want to show off to us?" Jenny's words were harsh. She used to treat Clara as a friend, so she always defended. her. Now, she didn't hold back.
"Jenny, how could you say that? I've always considered you both as my best friends..." Clara began to tear up.
Maeve propped her cheek and watched the scene with amusement.
"What are you looking at?" Sheldon was very dissatisfied with Maeve's attention being elsewhere.
Maeve made a hushing gesture and pointed in Clara's direction. Only then did Sheldon notice Clara. He cursed under his breath and moved to pull Maeve away.
Maeve stopped Sheldon and whispered, "Let's not leave in a hurry. Let's stay and watch the show." She really wanted to see this drama unfold
as Zion's scheme had worked.
"Stop pretending. It's been so long since that incident, and you never asked us out for dinner to apologize. What's the deal now?
'Are you trying to show off that your wealthy boyfriend bought you a house?" Jenny's voice wasn't loud, but it easily reached the ears of those around. People began to glance over.
Since her interrogation with the director, Jenny had been regarded as the one who started the malicious rumors. She had been given a lot of dirty looks throughout the period, so she didn't have a good temper towards Clara now.
Clara didn't expect Jenny to react so strongly, nor did she expect Jenny to directly expose her vanity. Her face turned pale instantly. "Jenny, let's talk nicely. That's not what I meant..."
