Chapter 716

"Maeve kept her eyes straight ahead, but Sergio's gaze never left her." Maeve felt a wave of disorientation as she read the caption on the video. During the live stream, she hadn't noticed these details. But soon enough, Sergio's cold, piercing gaze flashed through her mind. The last time they met, he hadn't looked at her that way. Was this his true self showing, or was there… something deeper beneath the surface? Maeve pulled out her phone and scrolled through her contacts. Her finger hovered over Sergio's name before she decided to call Larry instead. In the CEO's office at Brooks Group, Larry glanced at the caller ID, then looked up at Sergio, who was absorbed in his paperwork. Without lifting his head, Sergio said indifferently, "Put it on silent." "Mr. Brooks, it's Ms. Scott." Hearing it was Maeve, Sergio frowned slightly and ordered, "Reject it." Larry was bewildered. He wanted him to reject it? For a split second, he thought he saw a flicker of disdain in Sergio's eyes.
