Chapter 101 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 Serwith 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.

"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 Serwas 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, Sershouldn'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 Serand Clara. But now, she realized she had been too lenient as Serhad no plans of letting Lyra off easily.
Now, Sershouldn't blher for being ruthless. He should blhimself 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 Sergetting 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.

Unfazed, Maeve casually waved her phone in front of them Upon seeing this, Serimmediately rushed towards Maeve to snatch her phone. However, Maeve swiftly tucked it away. Serdidn'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 Sernow for money or sympathy? Clara's expression soured. "Maeve, that's not what I meant!" "Stop it, Maeve!" Serfrowned. "Clara's injured and got kicked out now because of you. Show scompassion!" "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 JLyra? car herself. Why blLyra? Clara had disrupted the Jansens property launching event and insultedin 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 accusedof being a homewrecker without 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. Chapter 100 X
