Chapter 124

Sergio rubbed his temples as he felt the weight of Maeve being slandered and bullied. He was surprised that Maeve hadn't brought up such an important matter to him. Did she really consider him that insignificant?

"Now that the director has looked into it, there's no need for further investigation," Sergio said calmly. "Just tell Clara to distance herself from those students. I don't want them influencing her." Larry hesitated briefly but nodded after seeing Sergio's expression. "Understood, Mr. Brooks."

Mave escorted Lyra to Buildin

Lyra hadn't expected Sergio to overhear them and make things worse. "He's defending Clara so openly in front of you. It's infuriating!"

While angered, Lyra was more worried about Maeve's situation. "You just argued with Sergio, What's your plan now?" After all, Maeve was Sergio's wife, and it could make life in the Brooks family difficult for her if they were on bad terms.

Lyra was filled with regret. Yet Maeve replied, "I used to avoid conflicts with Sergio, but I can't always be passive for the rest of my life. I'm not willing to back down every time I see him now." Her path forward was clear; offending Sergio was no longer a concern

"Lyra? What brings you here?" Charlie asked. He wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and held a stack of books, resembling a scholar.

Lyra looked at Charlie and couldn't help but make a face at his appearance. "I came to send Maeve to school. And you... are you playing dress-up?"

"You have no taste! This is a refined and elegant style!"

"Elegant? What's elegant about it?"

Charlie refused to converse with Lyra, and Marve took advantage of their banter to put on her scarf, worried that Charlie might inform Zion upon seeing her injuries. But why... was she suddenly so afraid of Zion replaceing out?

"Ms. Scott, don't leave after school today. Zion said he'd come to pick you up

why?" Maeve's face tensed.

Charlie was puzzled. "Why? Aren't you going to the grand opening today? You're the boss"

Maeve suddenly remembered. The grand opening!

Recently, she had been so preoccupied with the situation between Sergio and Clara that she had forgotten about the company's grand opening today,

"Congratulations, Mavy! This is exactly lucky at cards, unlucky in love. I'll be the largest shareholder in your company!" Lyra patted Maeve's shoulder.

Charlie muttered,

"You won't be the largest shareholder."

Lyra was puzzled and asked, "What did you say?"

"Nothing," Charlie replied and pretended to whistle casually.

Maeve forced a smile and shook her head. "But, I might not be able to make it today."

"Why?"
