Never See You Again (Sergio and Maeve) novel Chapter 224

Chapter 224 

The authority one held in a company was directly tied to the per 

percentage of shares owned. 

With 20% of the shares transferred to Maeve by Sergio himself, the entire Brooks Group could face a major upheaval if they ever had a falling 

out 

“Don’t worry.” Sergio’s gaze darkened as he watched Maeve’s retreating figure. He said, “This is just a high–stakes gamble.” 

Meanwhile, Maeve returned to Scott Media and handed the contract to Zayla for precautionary purposes. 

Zayla glanced at the contract and asked, puzzled, “Ms. Scott, what’s this for?” 

“Send it to the legal department, and have them examine it closely for any potential loopholes.” 

“Yes, Ms Scott.” 

When Zayla was about to leave, Maeve frowned and said, “Wait a moment.” 

“Go and dig into Clara’s background, including her academic records from middle and high school, along with her personal life.” 

I got it, Ms. Scott.” 

With that, Maeve said, “You may leave now.” 

“Yes, Ms. Scott” 

After Zayla left, Maeve leaned back in her chair, feeling exhausted. 

Just then, a knock on the door made Maeve open her eyes. She saw Bryce standing at the door. “You look really tired today.” 

“What brings you here?” Maeve glanced at the time, knowing that Bryce should be on set just then. 

“The shoot ended early today. I saw you returning to the office, so I thought I’d check up on you.” 

Bryce sat across from Maeve. He had become very popular recently, receiving various deals for movie roles and numerous advertising endorsements. He was now a top–tier celebrity. 

Maeve took a sip of tea to refresh herself. “Did you come just to check on my well–being?” 

“Well, I’ve got something to ask you too.” 

“Oh? What is it?” 

“Do you know Clara?” 

Maeve frowned, surprised that Bryce had mentioned Clara. As far as she knew, they had no connection to each other. 

“You know that I’ve been working closely with the Mirage Group lately.” 

Bryce then paused, seemingly gauging Maeve’s reaction, but Maeve didn’t interrupt him. 

He continued, “I saw Clara at one of Mirage Group’s media companies. I remember that she’s rumored to be Sergio’s mistress and that she doesn’t get along with you.” 

“And?” Maeve listened calmly, her tone even. 

“Since it’s something related to you, I paid attention. Then, it clicked. I actually know her.” 

Maeve paused, setting her to 

tea down. She frowned and looked at Bryce. “You’re saying that you know Clara? From where?” 

“Are you curious?” Bryce asked. 

“Of course I am!” 

Seeing Maeve’s interest piqued, Bryce’s grin widened. “Treat me to dinner tonight, and I’ll tell you,” he said. Maeve’s enthusiasm waned. “You’re a big star now. Do you still need a free meal?”
