Never See You Again

"Maeve, must you always be so harsh?" Sergio stood protectively in front of Clara as his voice turned colder.

Maeve ignored his question and got straight to the point, "It's best to do as I say if you don't want Mrs. Brooks Senior to see this photo."

Sergio's eyes narrowed slightly. "What do you want?"

"I want you to spare the Jansen family and compensate them simultaneously," Maeve said. Since demanding an apology from Sergio was impossible, a fair compensation would hold more significance compared to a mere apology.

Sergio coldly rejected, "Impossible."

"Impossible? Fine. Then I'll just show Mrs. Brooks Senior this photo. I have to let her know that you've deceived her, and even today's outing with me was a disguise to continue your relationship with Clara." Maeve continued calmly, "In any case, I have nothing to lose. But Clara has already been stripped of all her scholarships and living expenses by Mrs. Brooks Senior. I dread to think what would happen to her if this photo ends up in Mrs. Brooks Senior's hands."

Upon hearing Maeve's words, Clara's face turned even paler.

"Are you threatening me?" Sergio asked.

"Exactly, I am threatening you." Maeve didn't want to waste words on Sergio. After all, she has the full power to threaten Sergio with evidence on hand.

"Sergio." Clara looked at Sergio helplessly, her eyes filled with tears.

Sergio looked at Clara's expression and could only say, "How do you want me to compensate them?"

"Double the damages suffered by the Jansen family and cease any further disruption," Maeve answered.

"Okay." Sergio agreed readily, and Maeve knew it was because of Clara. After all, Clara was already in such a miserable state, how could Sergio

bear to let her suffer further?

"Maeve, do you have to be so overbearing?" Sergio asked.

"I've always been this way," Maeve replied indifferently, leaving Sergio momentarily speechless. In the end, he could only make a call to the finance department.

Later, Clara stood beside Sergio with tears streaming down her face. "It's all my fault. If it wasn't for me, Maeve wouldn't have found anything to use against you, and you wouldn't have to lose so much..." Maeve simply watched Clara's act with a cold smirk.

"It's not your fault," Sergio consoled Clara before shooting a cold glance at Maeve. He was clearly laying the blame on her.

Shortly after, Marve received a message from Lyra, confirming the resolution of her crisis. Maeve then turned to Sergio and said, "Thanks Mr. Brooks, you're so generous. Enjoy your shopping spree, I'm leaving "With a casual demeanor, Maeve turned and left.

Sergio called out after Maeve, "Maeve, remember, Lyra's just an outsider. You'll regret siding with her one day!!

"Sergio, I'm waiting for the day you regret it first." With a meaningful glance at Clara, Maeve left. But Sergio couldn't understand the meaning in Maeve's eyes at the moment.

Clara was still pretending to be vulnerable by Sergio's side as her eyes were red from sobbing.

After leaving, the mall, Maeve drove away in her luxury car. Maeve arrived at Lyra's company, greeted by Lyra jumping around happily as she looked at the newly received funds. "Mare, you're amazing! Doesn't that scumbag look utterly defeated now?" Lyra exclaimed in joy.
