Divorce Failed My Wife's Secret Identities Shock the World novel Chapter 449

Maeve's brutally grounded reality check caught Simon entirely off guard.

He had always assumed Maeve was just a little sugar baby Andres kept on the side.

After all, she had a face that defied nature and was in the prime of her youth.

When men saw a girl with that much energy and intelligence, it was hard not to have some thoughts.

Andres had carefully crafted the image of a cold, untouchable god to the public, but behind closed doors? Who knew what he was really like.

So when Simon first learned that Maeve was with Andres, he immediately slapped a label on her:

A beneficiary of money and power.

He never expected his judgment to be so wrong, or to be verbally destroyed by a girl half his age.

Seeing Simon at a loss for words, Maeve pressed on aggressively:

"In your mind, is my relationship with Andres just a sugar daddy and his mistress?"

Without giving him a chance to respond, she fired off rapidly:

"I'm only going to say this once. I am not his kept woman."

"Whatever twisted soap opera you've concocted in your head is purely your own speculation, and it has nothing to do with me."

Simon opened his mouth to defend himself, but Maeve steamrolled right over him.

"And let me make another thing perfectly clear. We are here strictly to talk business, not romance."

"If you're using 'work' as an excuse to get close to me, I highly suggest you drop that ridiculous idea right now."

"What I want are achievements, reputation, and the absolute glory of developing new projects."

"Romance and all that nonsense is a complete waste of time and entirely meaningless to me."

"If you can't even grasp that big picture, then there's absolutely nothing for us to talk about."

This was exactly why men were such a hassle.

She was forced to be tied to Andres; she had no choice but to deal with him morning and night.

But if Simon was also approaching her with romantic intentions, there was absolutely no reason to waste her time.
