Chapter 207 "Alright," Maeve said calmly. “I'm a reasonable person. I'll handle my responsibilities during the internship, but don't push tasks ontothat aren't mine." As she finished, Maeve tossed a stack of files before Clara, who now looked like she'd just been punched.

"Got it, Ms. Scott. It won't happen again!" Maeve smiled. “Good. I'll get back to work now, and Mr. Tomkins, please sign this." "Of course! I'll sign it right away!" Rob quickly signed the document without a second thought of renewing next year's contract with Bryce.

Angering Maeve was the last thing Rob wanted. His priority was staying on her good side, so he would rather survive than complete the deal! Clara stood there, seething with anger, as Maeve resumed her work with a satisfied smile.

To Maéve, Clara might be clever at times and academically accomplished, but she didn't understand the rules of this circle.

She thought being involved with Serwould ensure her safety, but even if she secured a formal position, the circle would never accept a mistress as a legitimate partner.

Just like Sharon-though she was now the legitimate wife, she was still excluded from the upper-class social circle. Despite Philip's deep love for her, their mismatched statuses meant her position wasn't considered honorable.

Rob handed the signed contract to Maeve, who passed it to Zayla without a glance. "Zayla, take the contract back. You all may leave now." "Yes, Ms. Scott." Zayla shot a sharp look at Rob, her gaze piercing.

At that moment, Maeve's phone buzzed with a message from Bryce asking, "How's it going?" Maeve replied, "It's perfect." Though Bryce hadn't spelled out his plan, Maeve had a pretty good idea of what was going to happen.

Rob waited for further instructions, and Maeve said, “Everyone, back to your workstations. It's office hours now. I'm still an intern here, so no need for formality." Despite her words, no one dared to slack.

Clara snapped, "What are you all standing around for? Get back to work!" Everyone quickly returned to their workstations, and Clara, still fuming, returned to her office.

Shortly after, Rob called Clara to his office.

"Mr. Tomkins, do you need anything?" Clara asked.

Chapié: 201 2/2 "Ms. Stewart, I recognize your capabilities. I believe you're overqualified for Tomkins Corporation-" "Are you firing me?" Clara quickly caught the implication.

Rob replied tactfully, "Our company isn't large enough for two powerful figures, And considering Ms. Scott is still Mr. Brooks' wife, it wouldn't be appropriate for you to stay" He was basically calling Clara a mistress without saying it outright.

Clara remained composed and stepped closer. "Mr. Tomkins, jfm you're afraid of offending Maeve, don't be. Serwill divorce her soon, and I'll put in a good word for you."

"That's not the issue!" Rob said, troubled. The problem is, Ms. Scott has the entire Scott family behind Rumire her. Rumor has it that Mr. Scott had handed over all family affairs to her. We can't afford to offend the Scotts." Clara was taken aback. “What? That's impossible!” X
