Never See You Again (Sergio and Maeve) novel Chapter 420

Maeve blushed and glanced at Zion beside her before asking hesitantly, "Zion... arranged a banquet for me?"

"Yeah, at the Royal Hotel! Everything's set. We just need the guest of honor to be here. Charlie and I will come to pick you up. Where are you?" Lyra replied.

Maeve covered the phone and whispered, "Did you arrange something for me at the Royal Hotel too?"

Zion shook his head, and Maeve immediately realized it was a surprise orchestrated by Lyra and Charlie on his behalf.

"So... is Zion there?" Maeve asked.

Lyra stammered, "Y-Yes! He's at the Royal Hotel now. He's waiting for you!"

Maeve couldn't help but ask, "Then who is this person next to me right now if Zion is over there?"

"What? Zee is with you?" Lyra exclaimed, visibly flustered. Charlie joined in, asking, "What? You two are together?"

Both Charlie and Lyra seemed ready to jump out of the car as Maeve heard the screech of brakes from the other end of the line.

Charlie gritted his teeth in frustration. "Why didn't you guys tell us that you two were together? I spent over a hundred thousand dollars to book the Royal Hotel! You guys better be back now!"

"Yeah, celebrating a birthday without us isn't cool!" Despite her words, Lyra was secretly thrilled. She had always thought Zion was reserved, but now it seemed he had some tricks up his sleeve.

"We should be at the port—"

Before Maeve could finish, Zion took the phone and calmly said, "We're not going back tonight. Enjoy yourselves."

With that, Zion hung up.

On the other end, Lyra was stunned, and Charlie was equally perplexed. After a moment, Charlie asked, "What did he mean by that?"
