Never See You Again

Maeve stopped struggling. When she looked up, she met Zion's eyes, which hinted at a faint smile.

"Come with me." Zion took Maeve's hand and led her toward a secluded corridor.

The makeup artist was already in position. Maeve was seated by Zion and joked as she observed his exaggerated makeup in the mirror, "With this much makeup, I wouldn't recognize you even without a

mask."

Zion replied, "Even if you wore a mask and had even more exaggerated makeup, I would still recognize

you," Maeve blushed upon hearing this.

The makeup artist quickly touched up Maeve's makeup and brought out the outfit that had been prepared earlier. As per Maeve's request, it was a clown costume.

"Is Sergio here already?" Maeve asked.

Zion looked a bit displeased when Maeve mentioned Sergio's name. He replied indifferently, "I don't know.

"You don't know?" Maeve turned around in shock and said, "If he doesn't come today, then won't I be

performing this act for nothing?"

"Whether he comes or not doesn't matter. As long as he knows that the guests at today's Mirage Group masquerade ball are all in attendance."

Maeve could sense a hint of jealousy in Zion's words.

"True, that's one way to put it..."Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

"But you do want to rile him up, don't you?"

Maeve couldn't deny it, though she wasn't that childish,

"Well, if he comes and sees that Zachary and I look nothing alike, he won't suspect me anymore."

Maeve had put a lot of effort into fabricating Zachary's identity. She would wear flat shoes, put on the clown's coat, and appear in front of Sergio, completely dispelling his concerns about her. "Mavy? Are you ready?" Lyra's voice came softly from outside the door.

Maeve, dressed in the clown costume, opened the door to see Lyra in a Lolita outfit. Maeve nodded and

said, "I'm ready."

*Sergio is here. You should go out now."

As expected, Sergio attended the ball. Maeve went out in her clown costume, and the spotlight shone on her, making her stand out amid the crowd.

Maeve casually tossed some small dolls out. Amid the excitement, laughter, and cheers, the crowd's excitement peaked.

"Hello, everyone! I'm your clown and also the mastermind behind Mirage Group, Zachary."

Maeve stood in the center of the stage, using a voice changer that made her sound deep and powerful.

The crowd suddenly realized that the person who had been amusing them all along was the boss behind Mirage Group.

Meanwhile, Sergio, dressed in gothic attire, quickly noticed the scene. He wanted to take a photo, but his phone had been confiscated upon entering the venue. It was clear that Zachary wanted to maintain strict confidentiality for this event.

Larry observed from the sidelines. "Mr. Brooks, this is Zachary. He looks like just a little guy. He's nothing special."

Sergio frowned and asked, "Don't you think he looks familiar?"

"He... looks like a fresh face. I haven't seen him before. I've never heard of such a figure in Seathburn City

before."

Upon hearing this, Sergio left Larry behind and walked toward the center of the stage.

Larry was too late to stop him and exclaimed, "Mr. Brooks!"
