Chapter 412
Marve paused. Amusement flickered in her eyes as she looked at Sergio. “What makes you think I’d agree? I’m just a trainee at Hackett Entertainment. How would your investment benefitme?”
“You still have some shares in Mirage Group, right? Mirage Group is connected to Hackett Group The more Hackett Group earns, the more Mirage Group earns, and you get a bizzer dividend.”
Sergio’s logic left Maeve with no room to argue. He was right.
To everyone else, she was the fallen Scott family heiress who now desperately needed funds to pay off her debts. The small dividends from Mirage Group were nowhere near enough to support her former lavish lifestyle.
Seeing Sergio’s confidence, Maeve relented. “Alright, I agree.”
Marve stepped closer and added, “But I have conditions.”
“Tell me.”
“I’ll only accompany you for today, and we need to keep a safe distance”
Maeve took a step back. “This distance is what I mean by safe”
“Alright,” Sergio said without hesitation “If you have any other requests, just let me know.”
For now, that’s it.”
Seeing Sergio’s straightforwardness, Maeve looked away and walked toward the amusement park. For once, a faint smile appeared on Sergio’s face as they both entered the park. Maeve remembered visiting the amusement park once or twice with her parents when she was young But after they passed away, she never went again.
“You can ride anything you want,” Sergio said. “We don’t have to wait in line.”
“Of course, there’s no line. There’s no one else here.”
Sergio had booked the entire park. At this rate, they could ride every attraction in less than two hours, with each ride taking just five minutes. Maeve smiled faintly. “So I can choose any ride?”
“Tesh”
“Alright,
t, I want to ride that one.” Maeve pointed to the high–speed roller coaster in the distance.
Sergio didn’t hesitate “Sure.”
Maeve was taken aback. In her mind, Sergio had no weaknesses except his fear of heights. But now he was daring to ride a high–speed roller coaster?
Sergio showed no signs of hesitation. Maeve, still skeptical, followed him to the roller coaster’s ticket booth.
They could have walked straight in, but she expected him to change his mind hallway. Yet, even when they were strapped into the safety harnesses, Sergio showed no intention of backing down.
“Mr.Brooks, are you sure? This is really high.”
“As long as yo
s you want to ride it, I’m okay with it.”
Maeve fell silent.
The roller coaster soon started, and Maeve glanced at Sergio. He was usually composed, but now, though his face remained calm, his white–knuckled grip on the handle betrayed
his nerves.
Mare closed her eyes, and within seconds, the roller coaster looped around.
She thought this experience might make Sergio give up on spending this tedious birthday with her, but when they got off, he simply said, “Pick the next ride you want.”
If Marve could handle the roller coaster, nothing else would be intimidating So, she decided to fully enjoy herself. After all, she was being paid to have fun.
“Alright, that one then.” Marve pointed to the nearby log flume ride.
