Never See You Again (Sergio and Maeve) novel Chapter 463

"That's a shame…" A look of sympathy flashed in Patricia's eyes.

Seizing the moment, Maeve said, "I really admire your marriage with Mr. Johnson. You two seem so in love."

"Yeah..." Patricia's smile seemed a bit forced.

Maeve raised an eyebrow and then feigned confusion. "Mrs. Johnson, have you and Mr. Johnson been facing some troubles recently?"

"Of course not. Our love is as strong as ever..." Patricia's reply lacked conviction.

Maeve continued, "Well, men always take things for granted until they lose them. I've been through it myself."

"There's no such thing as a faithful man... If Sergio hadn't been keeping that woman, I wouldn't have..."

Maeve subtly steered the conversation toward marital issues, and sure enough, Patricia turned sorrowful.

"Now look at her. She's become Ms. Ramoz overnight, and I still have to face them at events like this."

Maeve was referring to Clara. Patricia had already heard about Maeve and Clara's situation. She felt uncomfortable when she saw Clara heavily pregnant, beside Hailey earlier.

Frowning, Patricia said, "How could the Brooks family let a mistress join in so openly like that? He's unwilling to divorce you but still blatantly brought someone home. It's disgraceful!"

Seeing that Patricia was siding with her, Maeve added, "Mrs. Johnson, if it weren't for wanting to see you after such a long time, I wouldn't have come despite the Brooks family inviting me."

Patricia patted Maeve's hand and said, "From now on, let's meet privately. There's no need for you to come to these business events."

"Alright," Maeve agreed with a smile.

"Ms. Scott, Mrs. Brooks Senior would like a word with you." A housekeeper came over to summon Maeve.
