Never See You Again (Sergio and Maeve)
Chapter 199

Chapter 199

"What are you talking about?" Maeve quickly pushed the family crest back to Zion.

The significance of the Spencer family crest was well known even to outsiders, and she couldn't believe Zion had just given her this incredibly Important crest. "Maeve, I don't accept returned gifts."

Zion pinned the crest on Maeve's chest.

The Spencer family crest not only represented the head of the Spencer farmily but also granted absolute authority within the family.

Zion smiled at Maeve and said with a low voice, "I choose you as my wife."

Marve's heart pounded, and she was unsure how to respond. In her past life, she had focused solely on Sergio. She had never been chosen with such certainty. Zion's words stirred something within her.

Just as Maeve was about to speak, a voice from outside interrupted, "Zion, I've bought..."

Charlie stopped abruptly as he saw them.

Maeve quickly stepped away from Zion.

Holding a beautifully packaged food box, Charlie realized he had come at the wrong time upon seeing Zion's grim expression. "Should I leave?"

"Don't go! I need your help." She felt that her mind was in turmoil.

She muttered, "I'm actually a bit hungry. What did you buy?"

"Zion asked me to buy dinner... He said you haven't eaten after work," Charlie explained while cautiously gauging Zion's reaction.

Zion's gaze held a murderous intent.

Maeve opened the food box, which surprisingly contained her favorite dishes from a restaurant nearby.

She paused and asked, "Is that place doing takeout now?"

"Well, I went there personally. With enough money offered, they'll make anything," Charlie remarked. "Zion really went out of his way for you. Even I haven't received such treatment from him." Even as Charlie winked at Zion, Zion's expression did not improve.

Charlie felt uneasy. He wondered if he had just interrupted Zion's heartfelt confession.

Then, he saw the family crest on Maeve's chest.

He thought he was mistaken and looked again. A second later, he confirmed that it was the Spencer family crest!

"Zion! That's really low of you!" Charlie shouted, startling Maeve so much that her cutleries dropped to the floor.

Zion frowned. "Get the hell out!"

"How can you propose like-mmmph!" Charlie's complaint was cut short as Zion covered his mouth and forcefully dragged him out of the

room

Watching the scene unfold, Maeve touched her slightly warm cheeks. She felt that she might be falling for Zion.

The next day, the Brooks Group convened an emergency meeting-

Since the masquerade ball at Mirage Group, the Brooks Group had severed ties with many businesses that quickly switched allegiance to Mirage Group.

This shift had led Mirage Group to launch multiple projects similar to those Brooks Group had developed over the years. Now, the two companies were direct competitors.
