Chapter 70
Jenny lied through her teeth. The security guard glanced up and down at Jenny, and also at Tiffany and Clara who were behind her.
“Sorry, but any visitors to this apartment complex will have to verify their identity. Also, visitors are only allowed to enter after a homeowner has given permission in person.”
The s
security guard refused to budge.
Jenny said, “I’ve never heard of people having to verify their identity just to visit a friend. I’ve already told you that the woman just now is my friend, haven’t 17 We go to the same school!”
“Sorry, but please contact the homeowner and ask her to call us. Only then can we allow you entry.”
The security guard sounded a little impatient now.
The people living here were all wealthy and powerful. Even the security guards‘ standards had been
elevated.
Jenny was furious, but she couldn’t do anything about it. In the end, she had no choice but to leave in
defeat.
On their way back, Tiffany finally voiced her doubts. “Who exactly is that woman? I heard that the residents of that apartment complex are not common people. Is she… really an escort girl?”
“What do you mean by this, Tiffany? If she’s not an escort girl, what can she be? A rich young lady? Quit joking! Why would a rich young lady snatch other people’s boyfriends?”
Jenny was disdainful.
When Tiffany heard Jenny say that, she fell silent.
Clara said, “Since we didn’t find anything out today, let’s just go back…”
“We don’t have a choice, do we?”
Jenny looked dejected.
It was a pity that she didn’t get to figure out Maeve’s weakness today.
Meanwhile, on a floor high up in the apartment complex, Maeve watched as Clara and the others left.
The security guard of the apartment complex dialed Maeve’s number, asking, “Ms. Scott, there were three
who claimed to be your friends. Should we let them in?” people at the gates just now
“No. If they come back, just drive them out.”
“Understood, Ms. Scott.”
After Maeve ended the call, Zion’s composed voice rang out in the room. “You’re letting them go just like
that?”
Chapter 701
“What else am I supposed to do? Start a fight downstairs?”
Maeve didn’t want to waste her time on meaningless people like them.
She wasn’t sure why Clara disregarded her when she tried her best to get close to Sergio in her previous life, but after her reincarnation, Clara began to attack her when she didn’t want to approach Berglo
anymore.
But no matter what Clara did, Clara would always be the woman Sergio treasured the most. This was probably an unchangeable fact.
After all, in Maeve’s second chance at life, she had gotten out of the way of Sergio and Clara’s relationship.
No matter how Maeve looked at it, she was sure that Sergio and Clara would get together in the end. So, she decided not to get involved in anything that had to do with Clara in the future. She didn’t want to get herself into unnecessary trouble.
*Still, why do you suddenly have the time to come over today?”
Maeve sat opposite Zion and began making some tea for him.
“This morning, Charlie called me in a panic and said that someone was spreading rumors at school. In the afternoon, he called me again and told me that you almost got into a fight at the cafeteria. So, I came over to watch the fun.”
Zion was quite convincing when he said that.
Maeve was impressed by Charlie’s ability to spin stories.
He was indeed quite adept at embellishing facts.
Maeve said, “That’s not true. How could I possibly get into a fight at the cafeteria? You shouldn’t believe
his nonsense.”
“But someone was indeed spreading rumors,” Zion said meaningfully, “Good–tempered women will always get bullied by others.”
Maeve didn’t take Zion’s words to heart. She just pretended that Zion was joking.
The next day, when Maeve went to school, she saw Clara in a white dress standing at the entrance of the classroom. Clara seemed to be waiting for someone.
