Chapter 170 At Sheldon's birthday party, the sons and daughters of several wealthy families had all their eyes on Maeve.
"Isn't she Sergio's wife? Is she the one Mr. Hackett has been waiting for?" "I heard Serhad a falling out with her and found a mistress outside. They're probably getting a divorce." "Could it be that Mr. Hackett has taken a liking to her? But she's a woman of questionable reputation. What is Sheldon thinking?" The murmurs continued incessantly.

"Princess, please." Maeve couldn't help but laugh at Sheldon's childish gesture. Just as she reached out for his hand, the front door of the Hackett Manor opened, and several men in black entered. They formed two lines, with Larry walking in between.
Sheldon furrowed his brows when he saw Larry. "Who allowed you to enter?" Sheldon stood in front of Maeve. The guests present dared not speak. Everyone recognized Larry, who was always by Sergio's side. Something big was happening! "Apologies, Mr. Hackett. Mr. Brooks has instructedto bring Madam back home." Larry then looked at Maeve and said, "Madam, Mr. Brooks is very concerned about you. Please cback with us." "And if I refuse?" Larry remained silent momentarily before saying. Then we'll have to use force." The bodyguards behind Larry stepped forward, but Sheldon shielded Maeve and said, "Don't worry, I'm here!" Maeve wasn't afraid. Even if Larry couldn't take her away, he wouldn't dare do anything to her at Hackett. Manor. However, she was shocked that members of the Brooks family could easily appear there. Sergio's influence in Seathburn City seemed well-founded. It wouldn't go well for anyone if things were to escalate.
"Walt a moment!" Maeve patted Sheldon's back and walked up to him. "Today is Mr. Hackett's birthday. Making a scene with all these people here seems a bit disrespectful to him, doesn't it?" "Madam, we were blocked by the people outside the Hackett Manor. I have no choice. I have to fulfill Mr. Brooks's instructions." Chapter 170.
"I understand it's not your fault. But how about this? You let your people walt here. I'll go with you after Mr. Hackett's birthday cake is cut." "Maeve!" Sheldon looked anxious. "If you don't want to go back, I...”
"Shh." Maeve lowered her voice. “I can handle it. Today, celebrating your birthday is the most important thing. Let's not stir up any trouble." She never liked causing trouble for others.

At the last Hackett family jewelry banquet, they had already clashed with Serover her. She couldn't afford to cause any more trouble for them this time. Sheldon pursed his lips, looking displeased. But since Maeve had made up her mind, he could only lead her to cut the cake.
After cutting the cake, Maeve took m out the gift she had prepared for Sheldon and said, "Happy birthday! I wish you joy and happiness every day." Sheldon looked at the gift Maeve had prepared, struggling to find the right words to reply.
