Chapter 285 Sharon almost lost her composure when she saw Maeveâs beaming smile. âMaeve! Are you out of your mind? What benefit does divorcing Sergio at this critical moment bring to our family?
Sharonâs loud voice caught Philipâs attention from upstairs and he hurried down.
Upon seeing Marve, his face lit up with joy. âMavy, I knew youâd be fine! Are you hurt?â
As Philip descended the stairs, Maeveâs smile became more genuine.
âUncle Phil,â She called out to him.
Philip nodded, his eyes misting with tears. Once he assured Marve was safe, he couldnât hold back his emotions.
âSergio, that jerk! Iâd entrusted you to him, and what does he do? He goes off and has an affair, and gets that woman pregnant!
The moment you fall into the sea, heâs already welcoming her into his house!â
Maeve reassured him tenderly, âDonât be upset, Uncle Phil Look, Iâm not even angry.â
Upon seeing the situation, Sharon spoke hesitantly, âItâs. Itâs normal for men to cheat. Itâs just a fling, right? Ms. Scott is still Mr.
Brookâs wife, and he treats her well too. Thereâs no need to divorce him right away...
Philip became furious upon hearing this. âWhat are you saying? Maeve has suffered so much, and you think she shouldnât divorce him?â
âPhil, Iâm just trying to do whatâs best for the Scott family. What good does it do to us to anger the Brooks family?
Sharonâs gaze remained fixed on Marve. âMoreover, Ms. Scott is going to sell the Scott Group to the Mirage Group. She doesnât care about the Scott family at all I donât know whatâs going through her mind, but isnât she steering us straight toward disaster?â
âShut up!â Philip felt annoyed when he heard Sharonâs nonsensical words.
Maeve glanced at Sharon and remarked, âOh, Aunt Sharon, you re dissatisfied because I merged the Scott Group with the Mirage Group,â
Maeve remembered how, in her past life, the Scott family went almost bankrupt because of Sergio.
off with all the assets.
When Sharon saw the familyâs dwindling wealth, she immediately kicked Philip out of the family and ran This time, Sharonâs dissatisfaction with Maeve divorcing Sergio likely arose from that concern. If the Scott Group merged with the Mirage Group, it would further upset Sergio, leaving the family penniless.
Sharon suggested, âMs. Scott, perhaps itâs best to let James take the reins if you donât feel confident in your business skills. After all, he studied finance and should be able to manage the Scott family effectivelyâ
As Sharon became increasingly excited, Maeve interjected, âAunt Sharon, did you forget that Iâm a graduate student in finance at Amenam University?â
âDidnât you buy your way in? Does that even count? James got into university on his own merits!â
Maeve remarked and pretended to show pity, âConsidering he attended a mediocre university, I think itâs best to forget about him.
Especially since one of Scott Groupâs interns has a higher education level than him.â
Upon hearing Maeve belittling James, Sharon immediately narrowed her eyes. âMaeve! What do you mean by that? Do you look down on James?â
Maeve responded calmly, âWell, whether I think highly of him or not, now that Scott Group is merged with Mirage Group, weâre just shareholders. I canât really call the shots at Scott Group anymore, so I canât exactly hice people.â
Sharonâs tone was full of frustration. âYou know, Ms. Scott, if it wasnât for your randorn decision to sell the company to Mirage Group, we wouldnât be stuck living like this. We also wouldnât be worrying about what others think about us.â
Philip, who was holding back his anger said, âHave you said enough?â
Sharon remained silent after being scolded by Philip.
The maid from outside walked in and said, âMr. Scott and Madam, we have guests.â
âGuests? Who are they?â
Philip looked up and saw Sergio entering with Larry.
Philip immediately stood up. âWho let him in? Get him out!â
Upon seeing Sergio, Sharon quickly interjected, âPhill, donât get mad. He might not necessarily be here to see you, right?â
Sergioâs gaze fell on Maeve, but she didnât even bother to look at him.
âIâm here to take Maeve back.â Sergioâs voice was somewhat hoarse.
Maeve set down her tea cup and spoke calinly, âMr. Brooks, have you signed the divorce agreement? If youâve done so, you can just pass it to Chapter 285 me. I donât think thereâs any need for me to return...â
