Never See You Again (Sergio and Maeve) novel Chapter 430

Mason scowled. "What's it to you?"

As far as he could remember, he and Cathy were barely acquaintances. They were just neighbors. Yet Cathy seemed intent on meddling in his personal affairs by constantly bringing up his family's issues.

Mason shrugged off Cathy's hand as he was visibly uncomfortable with her touch.

Embarrassment flushed Cathy's cheeks, leaving her frozen in place.

At that moment, Zander walked over, having overheard the entire exchange.

"Mason, that was uncalled for. You can't talk to a lady like that. Don't worry, Cathy, I'll talk to him," Zander assured Cathy as he hurried after Mason.

Unbeknownst to him, Zander's words only deepened Cathy's wounded pride.

Meanwhile, Cathy stormed into the training room where Maeve was practicing. She charged at Maeve, ready to slap her, but Maeve caught her hand in mid-air.

"Are you out of your mind?" Maeve demanded.

Cathy was usually the calmest one, but now she had completely lost her composure. "You're shameless! How dare you try to seduce Mason too, when you already have a man!"

As Cathy tried to strike again, Maeve tightened her grip on Cathy's wrist. "I don't understand a word you're saying. Why? Are you jealous?"

"You!"

Maeve's words hit a nerve, making Cathy's face twisted with anger.

"So, I was right," Maeve said and released Cathy's hand. "If you like someone, you should tell him yourself instead of taking it out on me. We're both women."

Dorothy seethed, but Maeve grabbed a towel and walked away, leaving her no opportunity to respond.

Maeve hoped that the afternoon inspection would keep Conner too preoccupied to meddle in her affairs with Mason.

Her wish seemed to come true as the female trainees who were eager to impress, got dressed in their finest outfits and makeup during the lunch break.

As Conner entered the training room, he felt like he had stepped into a high-end club.

Edward was pleased with the effort of the trainees. But he couldn't help but cough in surprise when he spotted his own daughter among them.

"Wendy, come and meet Mr. Jefferson," Edward called out.
