Chapter 386: Chapter 396

.

Chapter 396 Maeve stood there and watched Gaby with a look that said, “Let’s see how you’ll handle this.”

Wendy and the others hadn’t gotten a satisfactory answer from her earlier, so they had to turn to Gaby.

Now, it was up to her to explain the situation such blatant favoritism would unsettle anyone.

Gaby faced the group and said, “This is a decision made by the company. You have no right to interfere, and I don’t need to explain everything to you.”

As the male trainees walked into the cafeteria, Zander noticed the tense atmosphere.

He immediately stepped forward with a playful grin and draped an arm over Gaby’s shoulder.

“What’s the matter, Gaby? Did someone mess with you? Chill out..”

“Get your hands off me,” Gaby replied coldly, leaving Zander embarrassed.

Zander had n Ino choice but to withdraw his hand.

Gaby scanned the room coldly, her voice was stem. “Only Maeve gets special treatment! If anyone has an issue with it, step forward!”

“All of us do!” Dorothy and Cathy led the charge, with the other trainees echoing their discontent. “Gaby, we’re all trainees. Why is Maeve the only one that gets treated specially?”

“Yeah, Why?”

“I think you’re protecting Maeve because she’s got a sugar daddy, right?”

“Exactly! I saw it too the other day. Marve arrived in a luxury car! Didn’t her family go bankrupt and have to sell their manor?

Where did she get the money for a fancy car?

Everyone’s frustrations spilled out, but Maeve didn’t bother to respond to them. She casually poured herself a glass of water, waiting for Gaby to handle the situation.

“Damn, that’s insane,” Zander whispered to Mason. “I thought Maeve got in got in here through connections, but turns out she has such a background.”

“Why would she ditch Brooks Group’s support for a sugar daddy?”

H ‘Do you think her sugar daddy might be someone from Hackett Entertainment?”

“Hey, Wendy! Do you think your dad’s her sugar daddy? one of the guys shouted, causing an uproar of laughter.

After all, who could have more influence than the director of Hackett Entertainment?

Aside from the director of Hackett Entertainment, the only person with that much power would be the CEO of Hackett Group!

Surely, it couldn’t be Levi, right?

Maeve heard the comments and responded with a playful grin, “Well, that handsome guy’s guess is quite plausible. I’m almost convinced it’s true myself” “Maeve! How shameless can can you be? How old are you, and how old is my dad? How could you even think of seducing him?” Wendy snapped as she took the joke seriously.

Maeve laughed. “I was just joking. There’s no need to get so worked up. My standards aren’t that low.”

The others started to see reason in Maeve’s words.

After all, the CEO of Brooks Group was far more prestigious than the director of Hackett Entertainment.

Besides, Sergio, the CEO of Brooks Group was known to be more handsome than most celebrities, Maeve w wasn’t foolish enough to make such a poor trade–off.

Wendy calmed down as she realized Maeve’s point.

Maeve had always known that Wendy wasn’t the sharpest tool in the shed, but she hadn’t expected her to be this naive.

“Enough! Don’t blame me for being ruthless if you continue gossiping like this,” Gaby intervened sternly.

She turned to Maeve and said, “Follow me to the staff cafeteria.”
