Chapter 62
Sergio didn’t expect Maeve to actually cook. He put down his coffee and looked in her direction.
Maeve remained expressionless. She was born with a silver spoon in her mouth and never had to set
food in the kitchen.
In her past life, after she married Serglo, she heard Hailey say that the way to a man’s heart was through his stomach. So, she began experimenting in the kitchen despite not cooking before.
But in the end, Sergio never tasted her cooking. After all, Sergio loved Clara more.
After breakfast was ready, Sergio noticed she hadn’t prepared any for him and frowned. “Where’s mine?”
“Make it yourself.” Maeve rolled her eyes.
Sergio’s anger flared. “Maevel”
Maeve ignored him and tore into her bread. Since she no longer liked Sergio, she didn’t need to go to such lengths to please him.
“I’m done,” Maeve said after finishing her meal. She took her dishes to the kitchen and grabbed her bag, ready to leave.
Sergio asked, “Where are you going?”
“I have classes in the morning.” Maeve clicked her tongue.
“Take the day off,” Sergio demanded.
“Are you crazy?” Maeve reached her limit.
Sergio had been acting strange the entire morning. First, he gave Allie the day off, then made her cook breakfast, and now he wanted her to skip class.
After a while, Sergio spoke, “What’s the deal with that piece of land?”
Maeve thought Sergio wouldn’t ask. No wonder he was acting so strangely today. It turned out it was all
about profit.
Maeve shrugged. “I sold it.”
“You sold it? To whom?” Sergio cocked a brow.
“That’s none of your business.” Maeve huffed.
“Maeve!” Sergio’s voice turned cold. “Do you know how much that piece of land is worth now?”
“I don’t, but I’ve held onto that land for far too long. Since the opportunity arose to sell it, I did,” Maeve said nonchalantly.
“You!” Sergio gritted his teeth.
Maeve was pleased seeing how angry Sergio was.
Chapter 62
“What’s wrong, Mr. Brooks? Didn’t you always hate that land? Yet you suddenly think it’s valuable?” Maeve
sneered.
Sergio bit down his anger. “Who did you sell it to?”
Sensing Maeve’s silence, Sergio asked again, “Did you already know that the land would be part of a green city project?”
