Never See You Again

Serglo ignored the maid in front of him and gently placed a robe over Maeve's shoulders.

Maeve glanced at the housekeeper, who lowered her head nervously. She seemed to be behaving as if she had witnessed something she shouldn't have.

Her innocent appearance reminded Maeve of Clara. Hailey was astute enough to recognize why Sergio

was drawn to Clara, hence her choice of someone with a similar personality.

Maeve asked, "What's your name?"

*Madam, my name is Cecilia Hoffman." Cecilia seemed timid, but her speech and demeanor were decent.

Maeve nodded, "It's not time for me to have breakfast yet. From now on, I'll have Allie prepare my

breakfast. Do you understand?"

"Madam, Mrs. Brooks Senior has granted Allie a long holiday to get some rest. Could you please tell me what time you'd usually have breakfast? I can prepare in advance."

Maéve fell silent for a moment. Hailey usually favored Allie. It seemed that she was determined to create

a crisis this time.

Maeve smiled and said, "At eight."

"Okay," Cecilia said and then stepped aside.

After washing up, Sergio came out of the bathroom and approached Maeve. "I'll go and keep Grandma

company."

"Okay." In front of outsiders, they still had to appear like a married couple. So, Maeve didn't act too coldly. Downstairs, Hailey frowned when she didn't see Maeve. "Hasn't she gotten up yet?"

"I asked her to sleep a little longer," Sergio replied, taking the blame directly. He knew that Hailey wouldn't

a lazy daughter-in-law.

Cecilia couldn't help but glance at Sergio. It was obvious that Maeve hadn't wanted to come downstairs just now.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Hailey sneered. "She's acting all high and mighty after marrying into the Brooks family. It seems like she's forgotten how she used to plead with me so that she could marry into our family." Hearing this, Sergio frowned slightly. His tone carried a hint of warning. "Grandma, today isn't a workday. She rarely gets to rest.

"I know. Your wife is more important than your grandma now, right?" Hailey changed her tone.

She then looked at Cecilia with admiration. "Cecilia, the soup you've made is delicious. Get a bowl for Sergio to try some." "Yes, Mrs. Brooks Senior."

Cecilia obediently went into the kitchen to get a bowl of soup before placing it in front of Sergio. Sergio accepted it without a word.

Hailey raised an eyebrow, asking, "Sergio, don't you recognize her?"

Sergio looked up, not understanding the meaning of Hailey's words.

Cecilia smiled and said, "Sergio, it's me."

"Sorry, I don't know you." Sergio remained disinterested in Cecilia's attempt to jog his memory.

Cecilia looked disappointedly at Hailey. "Mrs. Brooks Senior, as I'd mentioned, Sergio seems to have forgotten about me."

Hailey patiently reminded him, "Cecilia's last name is Hoffman. Don't you remember her?" Sergio remained indifferent and showed no inclination to engage in the conversation.
