Chapter 2

Sergio followed Larry’s gaze.

The red color stood out from the crowd

Maeve wore a wine–red gown. Every expression she made seemed to stir everyone’s hearts, whether it was a slight furrow of her brows or a smile.

The media’s cameras were all focused on her, making her seem like a superstar walking on the red carpet,

Maeve?

It took Sergio a moment to recognize her.

Mave had always preferred light makeup and simple dresses before. This was the first time Sergio had seen her dressed like this.

Clara’s complexion didn’t look good. It was her first time sering Marve

In contrast to Marve’s allure, she seemed too plain. She was like an underage student who wasn’t mature enough.

“Marve looks so beatiful.”

There was a subtle undertone of jealousy in Clara’s weder.

On the other side, Marve had already noticed Sergle and Clare. She walked straight toward them.

Clara had thought that Marvo was aware of the situation and would feel embarrassed or surprised upon seeing her and Sergio together

However, Maeve acted as if she already knew everything. Her face was composed with a calm smile.

“Mrs. Brooks is here. Then, who’s the lady beside Mr. Brooks?” a media personnel whispered.

Marve reached out and held Sergio’s hand. She then extended her hand toward Clara and said with a smile, “You must be Clara, the student that Sergio had mentioned, right? Hello, I’m Maeve. You can call me Mrs. Brooks.”

Clara awkwardly withdrew her hand that had been holding Sergio’s ann before shaking Marve’s hand.

“Nice to meet you, Mrs. Brooks.”

The title “Mrs. Brooks” felt like a thorn in her throat.

Maeve said, “I heard Sergio mention that you plan to go abroad for your studies in the next two years?

Clara glanced at Sergio discreetly.

Sergio said, “Clara excels in her studies. She plans to study abroad this year, but she’s a little timid. So, I’ve brought her here today to broaden her horizons.”

Yes, this time, it was just to let Clara see the world.

At this moment, Sergio hadn’t completely fallen for Clara yet. It was only after Clara had retured from studying abroad that Sergio had truly fallen love with her.

But even now, Sergio had already brought Clara with him to various events, to the extent that everyone in Seathburn City knew that Sergio had feelings for a female university student

But none of this mattered to her now.

She had come to the auction not to compete with Clara for Sergio’s affection, but for a more important purpose.

“Then, Serglo, please take good care of Ms. Stewart. I’ll head inside first.”

Maeve let go of Sergio’s arm

Sergio was taken aback

He hadn’t expected these words to come from Marve

By the time he came back to his senses, Maeve had already entered the venue.

Sergio frowned

Since when had the once rebellious Maeve become so accommodating?

Maeve sat in a relatively inconspicuous comer. The entire auction was attended by the highly–renowned and influential people of Seathburn City.

If she remembered correctly, there was a plece of wasteland that no one had wanted at this auction.

It was eventually bought by a small business owner, and it later became extremely valuable due to the upscale developments nearby. This piece of land could also be described as “prime real estate“.

This also led to the transformation of an unknown small businessman into a commercial magnate.
