Chapter 68
Maeve just wanted to keep a low profile and experience more of life. Was Sheldon doing the same?
Of course not. She wouldn’t believe that for even a second.
“Sheldon Hackett?”
Jenny couldn’t believe her eyes. After making sure that the person standing before her was truly Sheldon in the flesh, she instantly dropped her haughty attitude.
Sheldon glanced coldly at Jenny. He didn’t even bother to hide the disgust and disdain in his eyes.
Realizing that something was off, Clara hastily stood up. Shielding Jenny, she said, “Mr. Hackett, this is all
a misunderstanding, Jenny doesn’t mean any harm by this!”
“Since when do you have the right to speak here?”
Sheldon didn’t even try to be nice to Clara.
Clara’s expression darkened.
Everyone could see that Sheldon was biased toward Maeve. Jenny could barely hide the jealousy in her eyes.
“You damned woman, what tricks did you pull to seduce Mr. Hackett? Mr. Hackett! Are you aware that this woman is a homewrecker? She even snatched someone else’s boyfriend! She’s an escort girl!”
Jenny shouted at the top of her lungs, but Sheldon’s gaze turned even colder.
Jenny shuddered when she saw Sheldon’s gaze. Sheldon said coldly, “I never hit women, but if you speak another word, I’ll have to make an exception.”
Seeing how scared Jenny was, Maeve said slowly, “You should understand the whole picture before speaking up for someone else. Be careful not to turn into a tool for someone else and end up making a fool of yourself.”
Jenny frowned. She couldn’t understand what Maeve meant.
But beside them, Clara turned pale in the face.
Maeve pulled Sheldon along as she left. Sheldon seemed reluctant, and when he turned around, he even glared viciously at Clara and the others.
“Why are we leaving?”
Sheldon was puzzled.
Maeve said nonchalantly, “It’s pointless arguing with them. Also, I can’t blow this out of proportion. If Sergio’s grandma learns that I’m studying at Amenam University, I’ll be done for.”
“But what about your reputation? Aren’t you going to do anything about it?”

When Maeve heard Sheldon saying those words, she suddenly felt amused. She said, “Mr. Hackett, anyone in Amenam University who came from a slightly more dignified family will know that I, Maeve, om Sergio’s wife. They are all aware that I am the young lady of the Scott family.
“Why would you explain things to the commoners who have no idea what’s going on at all?”
Sheldon thought about it in detail, realizing something.
The people in the cafeteria just now might never reach Maeve’s level even if they worked hard all their
lives.
Indeed, there was no point in arguing with them. It would only be a waste of time.
After all, a crude lie like that would be exposed sooner or later. When that happened, the person who spread the rumors would receive their punishment. But to Maeve, she was completely unaffected by this
whole affair.
Meanwhile, in the cafeteria, Jenny was extremely terrified. Cold sweat had even broken out on her back.
“Clara, d–do you suppose that I’ve offended Sheldon? Will he send someone to cause trouble for me?”
There were many rumors about Sheldon in Seathburn City. Sheldon was a rich young man who would stop at nothing. Not a single soul who had crossed Sheldon before would be completely unscathed.
“Don’t worry, Jenny. Sheldon won’t do anything to you. After all, you’re a girl, and you did this for my sake…
Clara pretended to be remorseful as she said, “I’m sorry, Jenny. It’s all because of me…”
Tiffany comforted Clara, saying, “Clara, this isn’t your fault. It’s that woman’s fault for being so cunning! I can’t believe she even managed to win Sheldon over!”
Jenny suddenly thought of something as she asked in confusion, “But what did that woman mean when she said something about being used like a tool?“
