Never See You Again (Sergio and Maeve) novel Chapter 557

Chapter 557 

“I’m not here to cause trouble. I’m just here to talk to you,” Hailey insiste 

Hailey insisted, trying to maintain her composure despite her unease around Maeve. 

“Is that so? Well, that’s good to hear. But let me be clear–if I catch you causing a scene at the company again, I won’t be as polite,” Maeve warned, her tone frosty. 

Hailey’s anger flared up at her words. “Maeve! I’m your grandmother–in–law! Are you threatening me?” 

“Why would I need to? But remember, I still have that 10U of yours. If I decide to enforce it, I doubt you could pay off that amount quickly,” Maeve replied calmly. 

“You–Hailey seethed, realizing she was at a disadvantage. With Maeve holding that leverage, she had no choice but to swallow her anger. 

“It seems you don’t want to escalate things either, so just remember my words and not push my limits,” Maeve said. 

With that, she restarted the elevator, and Hailey, though displeased, remained silent. 

As they entered her office, Hailey glanced around and commented, “Mr. Davenport treats you well.” 

“Let’s get to the point,” Maeve stated as she took a seat on the couch. 

Hailey sat across from her, not mincing words. “I’m here to ask you to spy for Sergio within the Mirage Group.” 

“Oh?” Maeve smiled at Hailey’s words, amused, “Why would you think that’s a good idea?” 

Hailey explained, “You know the Brooks family has lost a lot of money recently. After you brought it up, I delved into our finances and spoke with some board members. 

“It turns out that the stock plunge was orchestrated by Mirage Group. Zachary Davenport isn’t as clean as he appears. He’s resorting to underhanded tactics because he can’t compete with Sergio openly…” 

“Stop right there,” Maeve interrupted. “Mrs. Brooks Senior, let’s cut the crap. What exactly do you want me to do?” 

“I know Mr. Davenport and you are close. He must like you. Otherwise, why would he give you such a big office?” Hailey insinuated. 

Maeve raised her eyebrows hearing Hailey’s words. “What do you mean?” 

“Don’t play dumb. I know you well, Maeve. If he didn’t have a personal interest in you, he wouldn’t have given you this position in the group. You’re Sergio’s wife now, part of the Brooks family, and you should act accordingly,” Hailey snorted. 

Gazing at Marve, she leaned in, her tone bolder. “I want you to gather insider information from Mirage Group. Since Mr. Davenport likes you, he’ll tell you anything. Use that information to help Sergio recover the Brooks family’s stocks. There will be a generous reward for your efforts.” 

Maeve couldn’t help but laugh at the absurdity of her request. 

Hailey frowned at her reactions. “What are you laughing at?”
