Henry stormed off in a hurt, leaving the crowd next door stifling their laughter.

Watching a well-known philanthropist and a respected noblewoman argue so intensely was quite a sight,

Charlie's face even flushed as he struggled to hold back his amusement

From the adjacent room, the crash of Hailey flipping a table echoed, prompting a waiter to rush in for cleanup.

Only then did laughter erupt.

“I never imagined that old hag would almost start cursing!” Lyra shook her head as she savored the .

“Gossip has never been this juicy. None of the past scandals even cclose.

Lyra turned to Marve and asked, “So, with this fiasco, Clara’s chances of joining the Brooks family are pretty

much zero, right?”

Maeve raised an eyebrow. “With things blowing up like this, Hailey will never accept Clara”

Considering Nathalie’s background, she should have been the perfect candidate the right age, reputable family

background, scholarly lineage, and her father a philanthropist

Compared to the powerful Brooks family, she’d have been easier to manipulate. So, what really pleased Halley

was Clara's identity as Nathalie.

Since Serhad once been so fond of Clara, Halley might have assumed that with Clara pregnant, Serwould

eventually divorce Maeve. Unfortunately, this move severed Clara’s path into the Brooks family.

A counterfeit socialite who isn’t easily controlled would never catch Hailey’s eye, especially since the Barnoz

the baby Clara’s carrying? Serwill be even less inclined to

divorce you now.”

“Conner will take care of the baby. As for Sergio..” Mentioning Sergio, Marve noticed Zion's jealousy simmered.

Even his movements slowed as if he was waiting for her next

words.

Maeve cleared her throat and said, “Let's eat first. The food's getting cold.”

Marve focused on her meal while occasionally stealing glances at Zion. With perfect composure, he continued

serving her food and handing her napkins from tto time.

Charlie and Lyra exchanged puzzled looks at the tension between the two.

That evening. Zion drove Maeve back to her apartment. When they reached the parking lot, zion opened the

passenger door and took Maeve’s bag. “I'll walk you up ”

Marve’'s breath caught as she got nervous. In the elevator, neither of them spoke.

At her door, Maeve had just unlocked it and was about to burn on the light when Zion caught her wrist. He

pinned her against the wall and leaned in to kiss her.

With Zion’s hand around her waist, his warm palm radiated heat through the thin fabric.

“Zion...” Marve's face was flushed with embarrassment, but Zion gently pushed the door shut

His voice was low. “So, that was the “show” you meant.”
