Never See You Again

"Yes, Mr. Brooks." The bodyguards left the office too.

At this moment, Sergio was the only one left in the office. He felt slightly tired and sat on the chair. Then, he took the only photo he had with Maeve from the drawer and smiled bitterly.

It was his first time going out with Maeve. He had secretly taken a photo of them with his phone when Maeve was eating

Only half of his face was in the photo while Marve was eating with her head lowered. He had never told her about the photo.

When he pressed the shutter button, he was surprised too. At that time, he hadn't had any feelings for Maeve and had always been cold to her.

Sergio massaged his forehead and leaned against the chair.

"Maeve, you're not dead, right? Why aren't you coming back?" he muttered inwardly.

The sky had turned dark. The news of the Brooks Group CEO's wife getting kidnapped and falling into the sea was playing in the living room.

Meanwhile, at this moment, the main character of this incident was sitting on the couch and quietly watching the news.

Zion placed a glass of medicine in front of Maeve and said, "You're going here and there when you haven't recovered from the flu."

Maeve looked up and saw Zion. Then, she held the glass of medicine. "It has been three days. I shouldn't have decided to jump into the sea. I should've made a video to fool Sergio."

She had made a deal with the kidnappers. She would fake her death and would pay them one hundred million dollars after that. They would be willing to accept extra money, so they agreed to it happily.

After falling into the sea, she had wanted to swim back using the lifeboat, but Zion and Charlie had suddenly appeared. Hence, she had followed the two and avoided the rescue team. Then, she returned to Zion's house,Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

Everything had happened so suddenly, and she hadn't expected Zion to find her exact location.

you, they'll get ten million dollars. It seems that he

Zion said coldly, "Sergio's offered a lot of rewards these days. If someone manages to find you, they'll get doesn't believe you're dead."

Maeve finished the glass of medicine in one gulp.

Sergio was unfathomable, and she had no idea what was on his mind. Now that she had escaped by faking her death, this also meant the end of her relationship with Sergio. However, she needed more time.

Zion remarked, "Think about it carefully. Faking death is just temporary. It's just a matter of time before you return to the Brooks family and cut things off completely with him."

"I've thought things through. The identity as Sergio's wife has brought me so much trouble and affected so many matters. Many people are watching me out there too. I could only do this so that he wouldn't find me." Maeve couldn't help but chuckle.

Then, she added, "The kidnappers helped me indirectly, But I have yet to figure out the person who hired them."

The three kidnappers looked like professional killers. Not many people could get in contact with people like them. The ladylike Cecilia certainly wouldn't do something like this.

Just when Maeve was deep in thought, Zion reached out one hand to touch her forehead.

Maeve was startled, and Zion said in a deep voice, "It's still a bit hot. Go back and get some rest. Charlie will look into the other matters."

Hearing that, Maeve fell silent for a while before she asked, "You went abroad for so many days. What did you do?"

She was aware that Zion had all his business overseas. According to the timeline of her previous life, Zion had yet to dominate Seathburn City and compete against Sergio. Since she had been reborn, everything changed too quickly. She was unsure if things would go according to how they were in her previous life.

At least for now, it seemed like Zion had yet to make any significant move in Seathburn City.

Zion saw Marve's serious look and smiled faintly. He knocked her forehead and replied, "L... went to get the wedding gifts."
