Divorce Failed My Wife's Secret Identities Shock the World novel Chapter 789

In less than half an hour, Maeve finalized the agreement with the Duke family.

As she was leaving, Daisy walked her to the door.

"Maeve, thank you. Thank you for giving us a place to live and for securing our livelihood."

Her father had already quit his night shift at the warehouse.

The salary Maeve offered wasn't considered a fortune in Aethelburg, but for the two of them, it was a substantial income.

Maeve wasn't one for overly sentimental displays.

"Don't call this 'helping.' We're just using each other."

"If you didn't have skills I needed, I wouldn't be playing the saint. We're both just getting what we want."

That was Maeve's brilliance in handling people.

She helped them without ever making them feel inferior, offering them absolute respect and trust.

Daisy didn't force any more dramatic words of gratitude.

She had already made a vow to herself to repay Maeve's kindness through hard work.

With Daisy watching, Maeve climbed into the luxurious black SUV waiting nearby.

"Everything settled?"

Inside the car, Andres handed her a cup of hot milk.

The weather had been getting colder lately. Just standing outside the estate for a few minutes had left Maeve's cheeks flushed from the autumn wind.

Murmuring a thanks, Maeve took the cup to warm her hands.

"It's settled. Daisy's dad seems very reliable."

"With them watching the house, you can pull your men out."

"I'm going to be pretty busy for the next little while. Lend me someone you trust to handle communications with him."

Andres was thrilled that she was finally asking him for a favor.

"Done. I'll have Hans pick someone personally."

Thinking back to when they first met, Maeve had completely closed herself off, never even mentioning her friends.

Though she was still harboring many secrets, Andres believed that sooner or later, she would open her heart and be completely honest with him.

"I'll see him. Sometime this weekend."

The car pulled up to the entrance of the restaurant.

The weather had turned sharply that evening, the temperature plummeting. Maeve was only wearing a light wool coat and knee-high boots.

It looked stylish, but it offered zero protection from the cold.

A gust of freezing wind hit her, making her shiver.

Andres quickly grabbed a scarf he had brought along and wrapped it snugly around her neck, his tone laced with mild reproach.

"It's freezing. Wear more layers tomorrow."

He was wearing a thick, knee-length coat himself.

To any onlooker, their outfits looked perfectly coordinated, like a couple's set.

The sight of the striking man tenderly wrapping a scarf around his beautiful girlfriend instantly drew the attention of passersby.

They looked like the picture-perfect couple, leaving everyone watching green with envy.
