Chapter 193 Maeve put down her phone.
Syndy Sweedney was waiting in the office for Maeve to enter. When she saw Maeve, she didnât have a friendly expression.
âBryce specifically asked for you to follow up on his shoot, Just assist on the side. There is no need for other tasks for now.â
Sydneyâs tone was harsh. Her gaze clearly showed she thought Maeve pulled some strings behind the scenes.
âAlright, I understand.â
As Maeve was about to leave, Sydney sarcastically remarked, âSome interns really learn nothing good. They just like to focus on men. Todayâs young people are truly spoiled, making the workplace a mess!â
Maeve ignored her. She didnât plan to explain matters to such a person.
âDid you hear? Bryce specifically asked this intern to assist him. No one knows what kind of relationship they have.â
âWhat relationship could it be? She uses her good looks to seduce people.â
âI even saw her secretly meeting Bryce in the hallway, She looks so pretty, but who would have thought...â
Those working in the Tomkins Corporation loved to gossip, Maeve was just here for a monthâlong internship required by the university, yet she had heard almost all the companyâs gossip.
When Bryceâs agent came to call her, people around looked at her with peculiar gazes.
âDid you realize it or not? By singling me out to assist with the shot, youâve made me the target of all the women in the company.â
She felt helpless, but Bryce gave a small smile. âEven if I hadnât done so, theyâd still come after you.â
Maeve admitted that even before today, she never had an easy life. An endless amount of nonsensical work would fall into her hands.
She felt that being attractive was a sin sometimes.
âMs. Scott, please help to organize this,â Bryce teased. He stretched his arms, revealing his delicate collarbone.
Maeve was holding Tomkins Corporationâs latest design for their menâs jewelry. However, with Bryce in front of her, the rush of hormones left her unsure of where to start.
She answered with difficulty, âIâve never helped a man to wear earrings... or a belt.â
The theme for this time was Wild Style, which created a strong contrast on Bryce.
âNo worries. Iâll teach you,â Bryce said in a low volce, leaning close.
His acting was so perfect that for a moment, she felt his deep affection from just looking at his eyes.
âDonât use me e to practice your acting. Iâm already taken.â
Maeve clumsily tied the belt around Bryceâs waist. Her movements were Bryce looked down and asked, âAre you talking about Sergio?â
awkward.
Maeve paused.
He continued, âYou havenât planned on divorcing yet?â
âWho said I havenât planned on it? Itâs just not the right time.â
Mirage Group had indeed given Sergio a significant blow, but it was not enough She had to produce something she could use to threaten Sergio to let her go. That meant threatening his position through Mirage Group, making it impossible for him to compete.
Tryce was silent for a moment, then asked, âDo you need any help?â
