Chapter 208 Clara was surprised. Maeve was just a spoiled heiress of the Scott family, right? How could they trust her with the family affairs? "This doesn't seem right. You must have misunderstood something!" It did not add up at all! Rob spoke seriously, "Ms. Stewart, why would I lie to you? This news has been spreading like wildfire in our industry. Offending the CEO of Scott Media is one thing, but not the CEO of the Scott Group!" Clara felt her confidence wane at Rob's words. Her strength drained away.

Why did I have to work so hard for years to end up like this?" "Ms. Stewart, I hope you understand." Rob had already said it as much. Even though Clara was bitter, she still had to leave.
In the office area, the employees who had previously flattered Clara began offering snacks to Maeve. "Ms. Scott, we were wrong about you. Please forgive us." "Yeah, I really look up to you, Ms. Scott. It's just that Ms. Stewart and Ms. Sweedney wouldn't let us talk to you!" "Ms. Scott, you're so gorgeous. Sermust be blind to be with Clara." Maeve didn't react much to her colleagues' change in attitude. Flattery and criticism were par for the course in the workplace.
When she glanced up, she saw Clara coming out of Rob's office, visibly upset. She leaned in her chair to observe Clara's grim expression.
"M-Ms. Stewart!" A few female employees were startled and quickly backed away. They didn't want to offend Maeve or Clara! "Are you happy now that I've been fired?" Clara glared at Maeve.
Maeve smiled and replied, "You were fired because your work abilities couldn't keep up. What does that have to do with me?" "Clara, you only got to manage the Scott family because of Sergio. Who are you to question my work abilities? Just you wait. I'll prove that I earned this position through hard work!" With that, Clara turned and left.

Maeve found Clara's words amusing. Everything Clara had was because of Sergio. The woman never achieved anything through her own efforts!
Even Clara's admission into Amenam m University was thanks to Sergio! Otherwise, they would have never accepted someone with her background.
