Maeve stepped out of the car, still not having told Lyra about Sergio buying a house for ra. She hadn''t anticipated Sergio''s eagerness to have ra move in.


    "Madam..." Larry was surprised at her arrival. Did Mr. Brooks n this intentionally because he knew Madam would return at this time?


    "It''s alright, Larry, you can continue," Maeve said nonchntly, though Larry''s heart raced nervously. The current situation resembled a battlefield!


    "Maeve, you''re not upset, right? We''ll be neighbors from now on, and I may need your help in the future," ra said..


    Maeve, who had already turned away, pivoted back. "Neighbors? What kind of neighbors?"


    ra seemed emboldened. "I also live in thismunity. Doesn''t that make us neighbors?"


    "Do you really think living in the samemunity makes us neighbors?" Maeve chuckled and pointed to ra''s building, then to hers and. Lyra''s building. "Hasn''t Sergio told you about the price difference between these two buildings?"


    ra''s expression changed slightly, and she asked, "Told me about what?"


    Lyra then ced her hand on ra''s shoulder. She deliberately told ra, "It seems like Mr. Brooks doesn''t value you much. The building you''re in is the cheapest in the entiremunity, with five households on each floor.


    "Those who live there are either nouveau riche or mistresses. Therefore, there''s no need for identity verification. You can get in as long you have the money."


    ra''s expression changed drastically.


    Lyra continued, "As for the building we''re in, it''s ten times the price of yours, with only one household per floor. You can''t moveContent from N?velDr(a)ma.Org.


    e in no matter how wealthy you are unless you''re among the esteemed and prestigious in Seathburn City. So, do you think you still deserve to be our neighbor?"


    ra couldn''t contain her expression any longer. Maeve couldn''t be bothered to argue further with ra and pulled Lyra towards the car.


    Maeve asked, "Where did Charliee from if there''s only one household per floor?"


    Lyra cleared her throat and sounded uneasy. "Zion had originally bought one unit. He was worried that you wouldn''t stay here since it''s too big, so he had it slightly renovated to look like two units, but it''s actually one."


    Maeve was lost in her thoughts. No wonder, she had found it strange when she moved in. Judging by how high-end this building was, each floor should have only one unit, but there were inexplicably two when she moved in. It turned out that Zion had altered theyout of this unit.


    Lyra whispered, "You mustn''t let Zion know about this. He''ll be mad at me if he finds out."


    Maeve reassured Lyra, "Zion has a good temper. He won''t."


    "He has a good temper? How is that?" Lyra was greatly surprised, but then she quickly added, "Well, it''s true. He''s good to you, but he''s never been nice to anyone else." Marve just smiled and didn''t dwell on it.


    The next day, Maeve went to school early. The ssmates were discussing something important, but they all fell silent as soon as they saw Maeve enter the ssroom.


    Maeve found it strange to see Sheldon also there. Normally, he wouldn''t bothering to ss if it wasn''t for something important. There was always something going on if he did show up.


    "Did something happen?" Maeve sat in her seat and pretended to ask casually.
