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,

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 queen. He's pretending to be a devoted lover while
messing around behind the scenes!” Marve’s comment successfully misled everyone about Conner’s .
“Cwithfor 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 sedyeing ned! How!
