high definh lon 4K UN–Inch TV!”
As the screen shattered, Charlie burst into tears in front of the TV and humed to Zion with a furious look. “You idiot! it’s been with me day and night for so long, and you malted my 98 inch TV just because your were in a bad mood! You’re just…..
“I’ll buy you a new one,” Zion replied coldly.
Charlie sniffed and changed his words, “You’re just too rich!”
Zion was not in the mood to chat with Charlie,
Charlie continued, “Marve is all lovey dovey with her husband on TV. What’s there for you to be upset about? I’m telling you as a friend, you should give up on Maeve as soon as possible. Consider this a friendly advice.”
“It’s all an act.”
“She’s also deliberately getting close to Sheldon in school. Is that also an acti
“I expected it,” Zion said indifferently
He knew that with such a valuable resource like Sheldon in front of Maur, Maeve would definitely take action.
As he expected, in just a few days, Sheldon and Marwe had met. The Hackett family even helped Maeve secretly, which was not entirely for their own reputation.
After all, if they could stay out of it and susar Marve, Har Hacketts would also be pleased to see it happen.
But Maeve was Sergio’s wife.
So, the Hackett family didn’t do that, probably because Sheldon helped her.
“You expected it, so you’re not angry!”
“Sheldon is not her type,” Zion said certainly
Charlie rolled his eyes to the ceiling.
“Oh yeah, Sheldon isn’t her type, but you are! Where did this guy get his confidence from?” Charlie thought
Of course, Charlie couldn’t say this in front of Zion. After a long while, he finally blurted out, “When we go out, don’t say that you’re my brother!”
Shame on him!
In the Brooks Manor, Hailey’s mood improved after watching the press conference.
When Maeve and Sergio came back, they saw Halley ordering Allie to prepare a few more dishes in the living room.
Seeing this, Sergio immediately held Maeve’s hand.
“Grandma, why are you here?”
“I came to see my grandson and granddaughter–in–law. What’s wrong? Are you afraid that I’ll disturb your alone time together?”
Hailey laughed happily, clearly taking the interaction between the two at the press conference seriously.
Maeve forced a smile.
Hailey was getting older and liked to meddle in the affairs of younger people.
Allie brought all the dishes from the kitchen to the table, and then gave Maeve a meaningful look.
Maeve suddenly had a bad feeling.
To play it safe, Maeve didn’t drink any alcohol during dinner. Sergio, who was always cautious, didn’t drink either.
After finishing their meal, Sergio put down his knife and fork, “Grandma, Maeve and I are tired from today. You should go home and get rest as well.”
“I understand, I won’t bother you.”
Hailey stood up and said to Allie, “You can leave early today. Come back tomorrow to clean up.”
Alle nodded knowingly.
Both of them seemed quite happy.
Only Maeve felt something was off
After Hailey left with Allie, Serglo stopped pretending and said coldly, “I’m going upstairs.”
