Never See You Again (Sergio and Maeve) novel Chapter 498

Chapter 498 

Bryce and Mason immediately approached Maeve as she descended the stairs. 

Bryce’s concern was evident. “What happened? Why did you reconcile with Sergio? Weren’t you two-?” 

“It’s fake. It’s just for a show.” Maeve interrupted. 

Bryce exhaled in reliet. “Did you agree to this on your own?” 

“Yeah. The divorce agreement has already been signed” 

Bryce frowned. “Did Sergio agree to the divorce?” 

“Yes, but under a condition. I have to play ‘Mrs. Brooks for the next six months, and after that, we’re done for good.” 

“He’s doing this for Brooks Group, isn’t he?” Bryce speculated. 

“Most likely. The Brooks family took a hit from Mirage Group recently. Although they seem to have recovered now, their stock value is still down. 

“This year’s going to be tough for them to tum a profit. These six months are crucial for the Brooks family.” 

“Sergio’s always thinking ahead. Even in a divorce, he’s looking out for himself,” Bryce replied. 

“He’s always been about the bottom line,” Maeve replied. She was familiar with Sergio’s pragmatic approach. Even in her previous life, Sergio bad married her for the Scott family’s connections. 

Mason chimed in, “Well, at least you’re getting divorced.” 

“Exactly. That’s why I agreed.” 

Besides, with the alimony, Maeve was more than content to play along 

“Mrs. Brooks, I always knew you and Mr. Brooks would work things out. Congratulations on your reconciliation!” 

“Yes, Mrs. Brooks, the Scott family has been through a lot lately. We haven’t had a chance to visit you. But now, with Mr. Brooks back, the Scott family will surely recover.” 

The people who once flattered Clara quickly gathered around Maeve 

Some were familiar faces from the business world who had disappeared during the Scott family’s troubles. Now, seeing her reconciliation with Sergio, they were back. 

Out of social obligation, Maeve smiled and clinked glasses with the socialities. 

Upstairs in the study, Henry sat with a displeased expression. “Mr. Brooks, what do you mean by announcing your reconciliation with that woman from the Scort family today? 

“Exactly what it sounds like. I believe I made myself very clear earlier.” 

“But that’s not what you promised me!” Henry slammed his hand on the table in frustration. 

After leaning back in his chair, Sergio said, “All I promised was to take care of Ms. Ramog for the rest of her life. I never mention anything about marrying her.”
