Never See You Again

As Maeve was lost in her thoughts, Sergio suddenly lunged forward and shielded her with his body. She was caught off guard as she heard the sound of eggs cracking. Maeve turned and saw the crowd throwing rotten eggs at them while Sergio stood protectively in front of her.

"You" Maeve began, taken aback.

At that moment, Cecilia, who had witnessed the scene from inside, rushed out and shouted at the security guards, "What are you all waiting for? Get rid of them!"

"Understood!" The guards quickly dispersed the crowd, who fled upon seeing Cecilia.

"Sergio..." Cecilia gave a disapproving look as she looked at Sergio, whose suit was now filthy. "I'll get you a clean suit."

"There's no need for that." He gave Cecilia a cold glance and said, "I don't want this to happen again

Cecilia was daunted by his gaze. She bit her lip and said, "Sergio, I don't understand what you mean." "Come on, let's head inside so that you can change your clothes," Maeve said, leading Sergio back inside. Hailey, who had been disturbed by the commotion, appeared with a displeased expression. "What happened?"

"Some of Bryce's fans were making a scene at the gate," Maeve explained, glancing at Cecilia. "They'd nearly hurt Sergio. However, I'm curious to know how they'd managed to find Brooks Manor." Halley, who was experienced and astute, was aware of Cecilia's little tricks.

"It's my job to protect my wife," Sergio replied, unbuttoning his dirtied suit and tossing it into the trash can.

Seeing Sergio start to undress further, Maeve quickly turned away. "What are you doing?"

"I'm going to take a shower. I feel dirty

Hearing the sounds of Sergio undressing, Maeve frowned. "Well, you should wait until I leave to do that." "Grandma is right downstairs. She'll be suspicious if you leave."

Before Maeve could finish speaking, Sergio took the clean clothes from her hands and said, "I'll be quick." With that, he turned and walked into the bathroom, and soon, the sound of running water filled the

Maeve sat on the bed, her mind drifting to memories from her previous life. She remembered wearing a white dress and waiting nervously on the bed for Sergio to return.

Hailey bad drugged Sergio that night. So, it had seemed like he was drunk. He had tom off her dress and touched her for the first time, his face flushed and his eyes hazy. She had called him by his name softly, but he had only mumbled "Clara" over and over.
