Never See You Again (Sergio and Maeve) novel Chapter 434

"Tango." Maeve extended her hand to Conner.

Conner accepted without hesitation. Seeing this, Edward signaled for the music to begin.

Within moments, the training ground was filled with the rhythm of a tango.

Conner wrapped an arm around Maeve's waist and felt how supple it was. He leaned in and whispered, "No wonder Sergio won't give up on you, Ms. Scott. If I were him, I wouldn't either."

"Oh, really?" Maeve replied. The next second, she stepped on Conner's foot.

He winced, but Maeve wasn't done. She stepped on him again.

Conner instinctively backed away a few steps, but Maeve followed and stepped on him repeatedly.

"Mr. Jefferson, I heard you're planning to invest in Hackett Entertainment's trainee project because of Sergio. Is that true?"

"It seems Sergio really values you. Even in the midst of a divorce, he confides everything in you."

"You've invested hundreds of millions. Aren't you worried about losing it all?"

Conner shrugged. "If Sergio's investing in a project, it's a safe bet."

"Who says Sergio's investments are always safe?" Maeve looked at Conner with a mischievous glint flashing in her eyes.

"Believe it or not, I can make the trainee project go down the drain within three months."

Conner dismissed her threat with a smirk. "If you can pull that off, I'd be impressed. How would you even manage to sabotage a hundred-million-dollar project?"

Maeve replied, "By making things tough for the trainees, you're jeopardizing your future cash cows. They have a new show the day after tomorrow.

"If they all fall ill and the first episode flops, the project will lose credibility. Mr. Jefferson, I'm sure you know this business is lucrative but risky. Without funding and no rising stars, it's a losing game."
