Serglo said, "Get in the car."

Maeve settled into the passenger seat, and Sergio hesitated before speaking, "Grandma's just worried that you're not focused on me."

"I know."

Maeve wasn't oblivious. The Hoffman family was considered modest, and with Hailey's high standards, it seemed unlikely that she'd favor Cecilia as her granddaughter-in-law.

It seemed as if Hailey felt that Maeve had been disobedient lately, so she was using Cecilia to stir things

The Hoffman family still relied on the Brooks family for businesses, so naturally, they were eager to send

Cecilia over.

"If you don't like her, I'll figure out a way to send her away," Sergio said.

Maeve replied indifferently, "Even without Cecilia, there's still Lianna, Zoey, and Sophia. Either way, she's -not a threat to me. I have no problems with letting her stay."

Maeve repeated, "Pull over to the side."

Sergio fell silent and complied, pulling over by the roadside.

Maeve said, "Since you have work, you should go and deal with it. I don't necessarily need you to come shopping with me."

"I only have three months. I don't want to waste any time." Sergio gazed at Maeve soulfully, his eyes sincere and lacking any pretense.

Maeve snapped out of her thoughts. "Even if you don't want to waste any time, you should first deal with-

Before Maeve could finish speaking, Sergio suddenly reached out and cupped her face.
