The Mafia Heiress's Comeback: She's More Than You Think novel Chapter 301

Chapter 301 Sawyer Is Our

Friend

Unlike Wilbur’s impulsive questioning, Nadia’s words were carefully crafted.

She was no match for Maren now. Voutsas belonged securely to the Marshall family, and with Lucien by Maren’s side, she didn’t stand a chance against them. Instead, she chose a subtler route–attempting to sabotage Maren by planting seeds of doubt in Lucien’s mind.

She anticipated Lucien’s fury upon discovering Maren’s supposed secret relationship, expecting him to punish Maren to preserve his family’s dignity.

Wilbur quickly grasped Nadia’s intentions, pressing his bleeding lip thoughtfully. Familiar with Sawyer’s fierce possessiveness, he knew Maren would face severe consequences, not just from Lucien but from Sawyer himself.

Then, Maren was bound to be dumped by both men.

However, Lucien’s reaction shattered their expectations.

Masquerading as Lucien, Sawyer exchanged an amused glance with Maren before they both erupted into laughter.

Their shared laughter mocked Nadia’s ignorance openly.

“What’s so funny?” Nadia was both confused and angered. “Aren’t you angi

ien?”

“Angry about what? Sawyer is our friend. We know him better than you,” Sawyer replied smoothly.

His carefully chosen words weren’t just for Nadia and Wilbur–they were also crafted for the ears of the Marshall family spies lurking nearby.

They had just managed to fool the Marshall family before, and one wrong move now could blow everything.

“What did you say?” Wilbur and Nadia exclaimed simultaneously, unable to believe their ears.

It made no sense; Sawyer and Lucien had no prior connection.

“Let’s go.” Ignoring the stunned pair, Maren confidently linked arms with Sawyer and left the restaurant amidst

murmuring diners, leaving Nadia and Wilbur frozen in shock.

“Alright, I’ve treated you to a meal. I’d better head home,” Maren whispered to Sawyer once outside, cautious of prying ears.

“Really? You think one meal covers everything? I’ve done plenty for you,” Sawyer teased, feigning annoyance at Maren’s assumption that a single meal settled their debts.

Maren arched an eyebrow playfully. “What else do you expect? Should I write you a check?”

Getting Maren to trest him to meals was just his way of hanging around her more

Now that she’d said it herself, he finally had a solid excuse to bek her out–and that thrilled Seryer, who

usually had a hard time coming up with reasons to see her.

The conversation lingered briefly before they parted ways.

Although Sawyer was reluctant, Maren had pressing obligations in Voutsas. Having been stuck at the Marshalls

for so long, she had many things to handle now

After leaving Sawyer, Maren made her way to Voutsas Middle School

Construction was already underway due to the donated funds, Isla was flourishing under Gregory and Olivia’s watchful care, surrounded by new friendships and a supportive environment.

Maren finally breathed easier seeing Isla’s happiness. Yet, one lingering worry persisted.

Even as evening descended upon Voutsas, Maren still hadn’t heard from Stormclaw. Despite thorough searches by Simon’s and Lucien’s contacts, no trace surfaced.

“Did something serious happen?” Maren muttered, her anxiety intensifying

Perhaps Stormclaw was no longer in Voutsas, and his absolute silence alarmed her further.
