Chapter 371
“Conner Jefferson, why aren’t you staying in Lentimas City to dominate the business industry there?” are you here in Seathburn City to make our lives difficult? What exactly are you trying to do?”
Lyra law Conner, as she was a reputable figure in Lentimas City too
Conner looked calm. “I’m not making things difficult for you, Ms. Jansen. I’m simply teaching Maeve a lesson.”
Now that Scott Group had gone bankrupt in Seathbum City, those from their circle thought they could trample the Scotts as they wished. It was normal in the upper class. Lyra’s face fell as she questioned, “Are you going against us then?”
“Yes, What about it? Conner was firm.
Lyra scoffed. “Mr. Jefferson, I bet you’ve been dominating Lentimas City for so many years that you don’t know the rulles in Seathbum City. Even if the Scott family has gone bankrupt, they still have me, Zee, and the Foster family backing them up!
“If you help Clara go against Maeve today, I don’t think you’ll be able to leave Seathbum City.”
“Are you threatening Conser?”
With Conner backing her up, Clara spoke as she wished. She looked at Lyra and asked, “Lyra, are you related to Maeve? Why are you siding with her? She refuses to divorce Sergio, but at the same time, she’s playing with Zion’s feelings. You should hate her!”
“Shut your filthy mouth!”
Lyra wouldn’t be able to control herself once she lost her temper. Maeve was afraid that Lyra would offend the Jefferson family, so she immediately advised, “Ms. Stewart, don’t be med. It wouldn’t be nice if you hammed your baby.”
With that, everyone fixed their gaze on Clara’s belly.
Everybody in the country knew that Clara was pregnant with Sergio’s child.
At the mention of the child, Clara tightened her grip around Conner’s arm and said, “Maeve, stop sowing the discord here. I’ve told Conner about my pregnancy. He told me that he’ll treat my baby as his own.”
Oh? You were still crazily in love with Sergio not long a

gago, and you took the Mrs. Brooks position more seriously than anything else. But now, you’ve forgotten
Lyra taunted as she looked at Conner “Mr. Jefferson, it’s great that you’ve accepted Clara, but I have no idea why you’re interested in her, she’s just a liar. You have such a unique taste, Mr. Jefferson.”
Conner slightly furrowed his brows. Then, his men instantly slapped Maeve’s tight cheek, causing it to swell and turn red.
Lyra saw that and fumed. “Conner Jefferson!”
“I’ve already told you that even if I can’t lay my hands on you, I can still do anything to Maeve.”
“You”
Clara felt delighted when she saw the blood at the corner of Maeve’s lips
Back then, Maeve had been looking at her condescendingly. Now, she could finally trample on her.
“Nathalie, let’s go.”
Conner held Clara’s hand, and the two left the restaurant. The Jeffersons‘ bodyguards left with them too. After they left, Lyra swiftly walked up to Maeve to check on her injury. “Let me have a look Is it bad?”
Maeve shook her head. “My ears are ringing a bit. I’ll be fine after awhile.”
“This damn Clara. How did she get in contact with Conner? Why would Conner fall for someone like Clara? He has such bad taste!”
“I think Conner is defending Clara because of the Ramoz family.”
Lyra was puzzled. “The Ramox family? What do they have to do with this?”
Lyra then brought Marve to the hospital to get the injury on her cheeks treated. Meanwhile, Charlie followed Lyra’s orders and looked into the connection between the Hamne family from Seathbun City and the jetterson family from Lentimas City.
