Chapter 205
The surrounding employees were stunned to witness such a grand scene for the first time.
Even Clara had a change of expression. She knew that Maeve was from the Scott family, but she never imagined that Maeve would actually be in charge of the Scott family’s company!
“Why? Ms. Stewart, didn’t you inform them of my identity?” Maeve stood straight with a smile. “I am Maeve, the heiress of the Scott Group and the legal wife of Sergio Brooks.”
Upon hearing this, everyone’s expression changed. Then, they all shifted their gaze to Clara. If Maeve was Sergio’s legal wife, didn’t that make Clara the mistress?
Clara felt the strange looks around her. She couldn’t help but clench her fists secretly.
“Ms. Stewart, why aren’t you saying anything? If you are okay with it, could you please inform Mr. Tomkins to come and talk to me?” With that, Maeve handed the documents to Zayla beside her.
“I’m not in a good mood today. Let’s have the contract until this year only.”
Syndy heard the commotion in the office area and frowned as she walked over. She looked at Maeve and said, “Maeve, what’s going on with you again? Can’t you work properly?”
The moment Syndy finished speaking, she sensed the tense atmosphere around her as everyone shushed her with a look.
Then, she noticed Zayla beside Maeve and walked over with a smile. “Isn’t this Ms. Bellingham? Are you here to discuss Mr. Grant’s contract today? Follow me, please.”
Zayla remained expressionless. “Not me. It’s Ms. Scott who would like to talk to Mr. Tomkins.”
“Ms. Scott? Is she here?” Syndy glanced around but couldn’t spot “Ms. Scott” anywhere.
Zayla extended her hand and introduced, “Meet Ms. Scott. The heiress of the Scott family, Maeve Scott.”
Following Zayla’s gesture, Syndy looked over to see Maeve leaning against her desk. Maeve was staring at Syndy with a mocking gaze.
“Ms. Scott?” Syndy was left dumbfounded. How could Maeve be the CEO of Scott Group?!
Maeve smiled and reminded Clara, “Ms. Stewart, I asked you to inform Mr. Tomkins to come over for a chat. Did you not hear me? Do I need to repeat myself?”
Although she was previously mild–mannered, she now seemed to be calling the shots.
Clara bit her lip as she was reluctant to comply.
Seeing Clara’s reluctance, Syndy hesitated for a moment. She knew better than to offend anyone in this situation. “I’ll go and call Mr. Tomkins right-”
Maeve interrupted, “No. Ms. Sweedney, you’re the head of the planning department. How could we get you to do it? You should do it, Ms. Stewart.”

Clara’s expression turned grim.
“It seems Tomkins Co
isn’t keen on collaborating with us on Bryce. We might as well rescind the
contract altogether,” Maeve remarked.
At this, Syndy panicked. They had invested so much effort into planning to work with Bryce. If they couldn’t collaborate with Scott Media, all that hard work would be for nothing!
Reacting quickly, Syndy nudged Clara with her hand. Clara, what are you waiting for? Get Mr. Tomkins now!”
Although Clara was reluctant, the pressure of everyone watching her forced her to leave with a disgruntled expression.

At that moment, all fixed on Maeve. They were nervous. Who would have thought that the heiress of the Scott family would intern here?
“Ms. Scott, about what just happened… It was Ms. Stewart’s instructions. I had nothing to do with it…” Erika stammered, trembling with fear.
