The Heir's Secret Bride

Chapter 288 Byron,

Who had been silent all this while, suddenly said, "Before Lynn died, she askedto take good care of you. She

wants you to live well."

In an instant, Leon's pale face was covered in tears, and tears rolled down from the corners of his eyes.

For a moment, he seemed to see his dead sister standing in front of him.

She reached out her bloody hand to him, her young voice filled with nostalgia. "Leon, you have to live a good life

with my share."

Those were memories that he had long forgotten.

Now, it had recovered again.

Leon closed his eyes. His Adam's apple kept moving as he tried to swallow back the bitterness in his throat.

Seeing that he seemed to have calmed down, Maeve and Byron looked at each other and asked him tentatively,

"It's too dangerous where you're sitting now. Shall we help you down?" Leon turned his head and looked at her

outstretched hand

The last the held her hand, he realized that it was a pair of warm and soft hands.

He couldn't help but give her his hand.

Unexpectedly, Leon slipped and fell out of the fence.

Maeve and Byron's hearts skipped a beat. They quickly went forward and grabbed his raised arm.

"Hold on tight." Byron's eyes were as deep as water. His slender arms tightened into lines that were filled with

power. Then, he pulled Leon up in one go.

The doctors and nurses who followed behind hurriedly rushed forward.

Leon had fainted, but his hand was still holding Macve's hand tightly. Maeve had no choice but to follow hirn back

to the ward.

Upon seeing this scene, Byron's eyebrows twitched slightly.

Not long after, Hudson and Clarrisa received the news and rushed over. When they found out that Leon had

almost off the building, they were surprisingly angry. fallen

"Mr. Mcdaniel, the news on the Inteis obviously targeting you, but it's our child who's injured. Shouldn't you

give us an explanation for this?" Hudson asked aggressively.

Byron's voice was indifferent. "According to your words, do | have to be responsible for the words of others?"

Hudson asked, "Shouldn't you? All these years, Leon has always thought of himself as Lynn because Lynn always

said that she wanted to marry you when she grew up! You know that he can't withstand any stimulation!" Byron

raised his eyelids. His dark eyes were calm. "You seem to have made a mistake. My care for Leon is based on our

past relationship, but it doesn't mean that | have to pay for the rest of his life.

"Tomorrow is the anniversary of Lynn's death, I'll treat this engagement as a favor from the past. From now on,

we don't owe each other anything. Your Excellency, you don't have to use this to threaten me. This isn't Erancia,

and | won't fall for it 07:23 Mon, Nov 4 T.

Horson's expression instantly turned ugly. In his position, no one had ever dared to speak to him like this.

He thought, 'This man is just a businessman. How dare he talk tone like that?

Clarissa stopped Hudson, who was on the edge of anger. "Alright our purpose here was to wake Leon up. Why did

you take this whole thing seriously?"

She thought, 'He actually treated Byron as his son-in-law and even reprimanded him!

After being reminded by his wife, Horson calmed down.

He was angry because Leon was almost hurt. He didn't really wat Byron to fulfill the engagement.

However, it was one thing to understand, but he still did not have a good expression. At this moment, Maeve

cout of the ward.

When she saw Hudson and Clarissa, she walked over and asked Byron softly, "What happened?"

"It's fine, Let's go," Byron said calmly. He slid his palm down and grabbed her wrist, bringing her out of this

place.

"Wait a minute, Mr. Mcdaniel Horson thought of something and asked him with a straight face, "With your ability,

you

this to for could have stopped everything before the situation developed. You didn't do that. Did you deliberately

use Leon to recognize the truth?"

He thought, "From what Byron had just said, it seemed like he only planned to tolerate it until the anniversary of

Lynn's death tomorrow. And after that? It is obvious that he will not let Leon immerse himself in his own world

anymore"

Byron stopped in his tracks and casually turned his head. Instead of answering, he asked, "It's not a good thing

for a person to indulge in an illusory world for too long. What do you think, Your Grace

Hudson sneered but didn't answer. Chrisa was more open-minded than him, so she was not dissatisfied.

Suddenly, she saw Maeve's side profile beside Byron and could not help but be stunned.

She wanted to take a closer look, but Maeve had already entered the elevator.

"Fortunately, he's not the son-in-law of the royal family. Otherwise, with his arrogant temper, | wouldn't be able

to suppress him even if | relied on the Princess. | don't know how much anger I'll suffer after he joins the royal

family!" Horson complained to Clarissa unhappily.

Unexpectedly, Clarissa did not listen. Instead, she asked him, "Did you see the girl he took away?"

"I don't care. What's wrong with her?"

Chrisa said hesitantly, "She looks a little... like Lynn."

"There are many people who look like Lynn in this world" Hudson did not care. "Princess Flora and Prince Loren

are not related by blood. Don't they look a little alike?"

"That's true." Chrisa's brows relaxed and she didn't dwell on this matter anymore.

After getting into the car, Maeve asked Byron in confusion, "Was that couple Leon's relative? They look a little

familiar."

"Yes, they are the Duke of Erancia's royal family and his wife, Hudson Nolan and Clarissa Nolan. They are Leon's

uncle and aunt." Byron fastened his seatbelt and asked calmly, "You've never seen them in Erancia's palace?"

Maeve shook her head. "I spend most of my tlearning from the chief designer. | had a lot of things to do. So |

had seen all the members before."

The ones she had seen the most were the Queen, Loren, and a few other members of the royal family who often

entered the palace.

Byron asked, "Is that so?"

"Oh, right." Maeve hesitated for a moment. "What's going on with your engagement with Leon?"

Byron looked at her with a faint smile. "Didn't you hear everything behind the door?"

Maeve's ears turned slightly hot. She could not help but defend herself, "I didn't do it on purpose. | just

happened to hear it when | went out!"

Although she said she heard a little, she had actually heard everything, including tomorrow's wedding which was

actually meant for the last wish of Lynn, who had already passed.

"Then what else do you want to know? Byron rested his elbows on the steering wheel and asked casually.

Maeve bit her lip. "Why didn't you tellanything before?"

"Would you believe it?" Byron stared into her eyes. "If you didn't see it with your own eyes, would you believe

that Leon is a man?"

Maeve was silent.

When she first saw the news online, she thought that someone had spread the rumors,

This was because "Lynn Anderson" was a delicate girl no matter how she looked at her. Therefore, she might not

believe it

"Even so, can't you tellclearly first?" Maeve lowered her eyes No matter how ridiculous this matter is, as

long as you tellnicely, | might accept it. It's better than makingfeel like a clown who has interfered in

other people's relationships." SEND GIFT
