Chapter 50

Sergio had never been wary of Hailey, who had raised him since childhood.

But Maeve knew about Hailey’s tactics.

In her previous life, Halley had facilitated Maeve and Sergio’s relationship.

Back then, Hailey had slipped something into the red wine without even telling Maeve beforehand.

That was why Maeve intentionally avoided drinking any alcohol earlier.

“Am I overthinking this?”

After a fruitless search, Maeve was filled with confusion.

In the middle of the night, Maeve tossed and turned in bed and faintly heard some noise downstairs.

Ever since Sergio started coming back more frequently, he had fixed up a room for himself. They still slept in separate rooms every night.

Maeve pushed open the door and saw that the kitchen light downstairs was on.

She went downstairs and saw Sergio in just a loose bathrobe, drinking cold water from the refrigerator.

“Sergio?” Maeve called out softly.

The dim light in the kitchen made it hard to see, but Maeve could see Sergio’s body stiffen.

“Why are you here?” Sergio’s voice was hoarse. “Go back upstairs!”

Maeve realized something was wrong. She saw Sergio’s cheeks were slightly red, but it wasn’t a normal flush.

A bad feeling arose in her heart.
