kes me feel important"


    "It''s different. Being treated by you makes me feel important," Bryce said.


    Maeve didn''t quite understand Bryce''s logic, but she still went along with it. That evening, she reserved a private room in a high-end restaurant to match Bryce''s status.


    In the passenger seat of Bryce''s sports car, Maeve felt the rush of the ride. She hadn''t expected Bryce, who was usuallyposed and a bit cunning, to enjoy such an adrenaline rush "Please step out of the car, princess," Bryce said, opening the car door for her.


    Maeve was dressed casually today, without any makeup on. She had even bought a mask to wear to help keep Bryce''s identity under wraps,


    In contrast, Bryce seemedid-back, as if he were just running errands. He made no effort to conceal his identity.


    "Bryce, you''re a famous celebrity now. You''ll be recognized easily if you were to walk around like this. Tomorrow''s headlines will be all about Bryce''s mysterious dinner date..." "Isn''t it good to create some news?" Bryce asked.N?velDrama.Org is the owner.


    Maeve recalled that Bryce had managed to avoid any scandals since his debut. "But still, it shouldn''t be with your boss," she said.


    "More like my partner.


    "To the world, I''m your boss."


    They continued their banter as they walked to the restaurant. The owner was used to serving people from the entertainment industry, so he was able to ensure their privacy.


    "This way, please," the server said, guiding Maeve and Bryce to their private room.


    Once inside, Maeve removed her mask, but when she looked up, she saw ra. ra was wearing the same dress that Maeve had seen her in at a previous event. It was a dress that Sergio had bought for her.


    ra''s expression changed slightly.


    Another woman came out of the private room and pulled ra by the arm. "What''s taking you so long with the wine? Hurry up!"


    ra quickly followed the woman into the room without saying a word to Maeve.


    "Did you intend for me to see that?" Maeve asked. It was clear that this gathering hadn''t been arranged by Olivia. It seemed to be one of ra''s "private engagements". Typically, the people who visited this restaurant were industry insiders who preferred to remain discreet. So, what kind of shady dealings was ra involved in?


    "Follow me," Bryce said, leading Maeve to their private room.


    Inside, the table was already set with food, but Maeve had lost her appetite.


    Bryce handed her ra''s resume, saying, "This is ra''s resume."


    Maeve frowned. "I''ve seen her resume before. I''ve asked Za to start investigating it this afternoon. What''s wrong with it?"


    "Her resume states that she had attended a prestigious private girls'' school for her sophomore year. But in reality, she had gone to Pioneer High School." "Pioneer High School? What do you mean?" Maeve asked, puzzled.


    She remembered ra being chosen by Sergio during her sophomore year as a part of the Brooks Group''s charity initiative that funded various high schools.


    Brooks Group had chosen ra from the prestigious private girls'' school during that time. "I was at Pioneer High School with her, ra and I were in the same ss," Bryce exined.
