Chapter 427

Just as the atmosphere grew tense, Maeve suddenly spoke up, “It seems Mr. Jefferson has quite a soft spot for the male trainees. Looks like the female trainees don’t stand a chance at getting the investment now.”

Her insinuation was clear–she was suggesting Conner was gay

Conner frowned slightly and withdrew the hand he had placed on Mason’s shoulder.

Edward nervously wiped the sweat from his forehead after bearing Maeve’s comment. He couldn’t help but marvel at Maeve’s unabashed boldness. She always spoke her mind, no

matter what.

“M–Maeve is just joking around,” Edward stammered “Mr. Jefferson would obviously invest in all of you, not just the male trainees. Besides, Mr. Jefferson is a real man..” As Edward’s explanation only made things worse, everyone around couldn’t help but laugh

“Mrs. Brooks, it appears I’ve somehow offended you, hence your comment.” Conner’s lone shifted mockingly toward Maeve.

Maeve shrugged. “Mr. Jefferson, are you joking? How could you have possibly offended me?”

“The news..” Conner leaned in closer and whispered, “Was that you?”

“I knew Maeve had ulterior motives, but using this tactic to seduce Mr. Jefferson is low!”

“How shameless! She’s acting Ule a slut right in front of everyone.”

Seeing this, Mason frowned and pushed Conner away from Marve. “Mr. Jefferson, mind your distance.”

Cathy noticed this and bit her lip. She was clearly upset.

Maeve flashed an innocent look as she said, “Mr. Jefferson, it has nothing to do with me. Thave no idea why those rumors appeared online. Don’t accuse me of it.”

“You’d better be right.” Conner raised an eyebrow. “I thought Mrs. Brooks wasn’t the kind of person to break promises too.”

Unfortunately, Maeve definitely was.

“I need to review something here. If everything checks out, we can sign the contract. I’ll Invest in both groups of trainees.” “Alright, great! No problem!” Edward exclaimed

As Conner decided to invest, Mason’s frown deepened. Conner gave him a meaningful look before taming to leave.

Zander was bewildered and asked, “What was that look about? Is he actually interested in you?”

“I can’t believe the Jefferson family has such a drama queen. He’s pretending to be a devoted lover while messing around behind the scenes!” Marve’s comment successfully misled everyone about Conner’s .

“Come with me for a moment.” Mason invited Maeve aside for a private conversation, drawing envious and jealous glances from the other female trainees.

“Mason never talks to girls. Why is he so close to Macre?”

“She’s been here only a few days and she’s already seducing men! How shameless!”

Someone nearby asked, “Cathy, didn’t you live in the same neighborhood as Mason? What’s your relationship with him be? Does he have a girlfriend?

Cathy’s face darkened. Even though she lived in the same neighborhood as Mason, he rarely spoke to her and was always distant. She had never seen him actively invite a woman to talk before.

Meanwhile, Mason coldly

coldly asked Maeve, “What’s your relationship with Conner?”
