Maeve watched Levi's figure for a moment. Levi seemed frail, yet he b intimidating.
had sustained the Hackett family for years, which was somewhat
"Sir, she's here." At that moment, a bodyguard had escorted a tarty-looking woman over.
Maeve observed the scene and pretended to sip her drink aside. As the woman laid eyes on Levi, she adopted a seductive demeanor with her eyes flashing flirtatiously. Maeve recalled seeing her attempt to approach Sheldon downstairs earlier, only to be rejected.
"Mr. Hackett, is there anything that I can do for you?" The woman's voice was low and soft, sending shivers down the spine.
Maeve couldn't resist stealing a few glances. The woman was practically clinging to Levi, who remained unfazed with a faint smile. Yet, that smile was tinged with coldness.
"What are you doing? Let me go!" The woman's arms were firmly held, and she was pinned to the ground. As she trembled in fear, her glamorous demeanor faded.
"Tell the person behind you that he's got the wrong idea if he's planning to gather information on the Hackett family through women. Levi's tone was icy and devoid of any warmth. He paused, then chuckled, "Forget it, let my men handle it instead."
The woman had been struggling, but her face turned deathly pale after hearing his words. With a simple gesture from Levi, the bodyguard grabbed the woman's hair and tossed her from the second floor. A piercing scream echoed, and Maeve's heart trembled along with it.
Although falling from the second floor wouldn't be fatal, it would likely leave them crippled for life. Levi... was truly ruthless.
But then again, if he wasn't ruthless, how could he hold such a powerful position in the Hackett family? No wonder people in this circle trembled at the mention of Levi; this man was truly formidable. "Ms. Scott, are you done watching?" Levi turned his wheelchair to meet Marve's gaze.
Maeve quickly averted her gaze, realizing she had been caught satisfying her curiosity. She had it coming.
"Mr. Hackett, about that woman..."
"She's just an escort, a plaything for the elite "Levi's tone was indifferent as if the woman thrown down moments ago was nothing more than a bag of trash.
Then, he continued with a hint of amusement, "I've heard Sheldon mention you several times, Ms. Scott. It seems you and my brother get along quite well."
Maeve's heart skipped a beat at this. She couldn't detect any warmth in Levi's eyes. She had approached Sheldon initially because of his identity and future status, but even he had seen through her intentions. let alone Levi.
Maeve thought back to the woman earlier. It was clear Levi had intended for her to witness it, as a warning: Though Maeve's heart raced, she kept her composure and replied, "We're just classmates, we're not that close."
Levi chuckled and said, "It's windy here, Ms. Scott. It's better to stay downstairs. My brother's there tob, you two can chat."
Maeve couldn't grasp Levi's motives, but one thing was for sure he didn't want her near the terrace. Of course, Maeve wouldn't challenge Levi. She went downstairs after nodding politely..
As she reached downstairs, she spotted Sheldon drinking alone. At the sight of her, he immediately approached and asked, "Why did you go upstairs?"
