Never See You Again (Sergio and Maeve) novel Chapter 243

Chapter 243 

“Clara, have you placed your order yet?” At this moment, Olivia returned from the restroom. 

Clara shook her head. “Not yet.” 

Olivia frowned. “What’s going on? If you can’t handle something as simple as ordering food, then let me take care of it.” 

There was a clear tone of authority in Olivia’s voice. 

Everyone present could tell that this was no ordinary colleague but her supervisor. 

Clara’s expression turned sour. She wished she could disappear just then. She quickly returned to her seat, putting some distance between herself and Sergio’s table.

Sergio chuckled wryly. “I thought you might be jealous. It seems I was mistaken.” 

Sergio used to think that Maeve’s occasional antagonism toward Clara was out of jealousy. But now, it seemed that Maeve wasn’t doing it out of jealousy but to assert her identity as Mrs. Brooks. 

Even so, just this action was enough to make him happy.

To avoid offending Sergio, they would steer clear of Clara altogether. Maeve’s actions had completely severed all of Clara’s options. 

Tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow, everyone would know that Clara and Sergio were no longer associated. 

“Here, try this.” Olivia offered Clara a piece of meat. Clara had just brought it to her mouth when she suddenly felt nauseous. She was unable to hold back the urge to vomit. 

Clara’s voice was loud, and everyone turned their attention to her.

Olivia asked with concem, “What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”
