The Heir's Secret Bride

Chapter 379 Knowing Maeve, Byron was not sure if he should really keep everything from her. But it was just a fleeting thought and did not sway Byron at all.

"If that's what you believe, then why are you still helpingkeep it from her?" Byron questioned. Caught off guard, Theo mumbled softly, "I have my reasons, I don't want to see my sister upset.

"Then why are you tellingthis?" Byron said, amused.

"It's different for us!" Theo huffed, turning his head away.

Before Byron could ask what he meant. Theo turned away with pout. With his hands clasped behind his back. Theo walked off.

Byron could not help but laugh at this sight.

To Maeve's relief, this tTheo had finally packed her suitcase without slipping in any of his odd little weapons. He probably realized that things are different at hand in Erancia.

After arriving in Greenhaven, Maeve, Jaylen, and Daryl checked into the hotel that Trazir had arranged for them. Maeve was here for work. As soon as she put down her luggage, she had to make her way to the exhibition venue. To Maeve's surprise, Jaylen offered to be her temporary assistant and go with her.

Hearing this, Maeve hesitated, and asked, "Are you sure? Is your body up for it?" Jaylen tugged at his sweater collar and said, "You've seen it yourself. I'm doing great now, not coughing up blood anymore. Actually, I have to thank Byron for this." "Byron' What's he got to do with it? Maeve asked.

"He arranged for a world-class medical team to treat me. Thanks to him, I've been doing well lately, and the disease has been kept in check." Jaylen replied. But his mood grew more conflicted as he spoke.

After the antidote was created, Jaylen felt as if his life was slipping away bit by bit. He even collapsed in the lab. When he eventually woke up, he found himself surrounded by a sea of doctors When Jaylen learned that the doctors were sent by Byron and had saved his life, he had no idea how to feel. Byron's intention was simply to repay the favor Maeve owed him on her behalf. Because of that, Jaylen not only did not feel grateful but instead felt a heavy sense of frustration.

Bryon was Maeve's fiancé, even if it was only in name. Besides repaying a favor, it was also a subtle way of asserting his claim over Maeve.

They were both men. Bryon's intentions were as clear as water to Jaylen.

Maeve did not know that Bryon had intervened. Her eyes widened in shock as she listened to Jaylen speak. Seeing her reaction, Jaylen asked, "You weren't aware of this?" "I didn't know about this, Maeve murmured. Byron did not bring it up to her at all.

1/3 Chapter 879 NOV Jaylen chuckled and said half-jokingly, "I probably shouldn't have told you. Here I am boosting my rival's image, what a loss for me." Maeve could not bring herself to even smile at Jaylen's joke..

The tension between Byron and Jaylen was because of Maeve. Now that Byront put aside their differences to help treat Jaylen's illness, there was no doubt it was also because of her.

Compromise was not a difficult thing, but for Byron, it was almost unthinkable, Yet he still decided to help Jaylen, without even letting Maeve know. It was clear that Byron did not expect anything from her in return.

It did not seem like Maeve had anything to offer that would be worth Byron's effort anyway.

Even when Byron treated Maeve so genuinely, she kept it from Him that she was traveling to Greenhaven. At the thought of this, a pang of guilt crept over her.

Meanwhile, at First Hospital, Byron casually brought it up to Will over lunch to ask why Maeve had not visited even though it was the weekend.

"Dad, Mom went to Greenhaven for work. She will probably be back in about a week," Will replied after swallowing his mouthful of rice.

Byron frowned slightly and said, "She'll be gone for that long?" Will responded, "Mom has been under a lot of stress lately, so it's good for her to get away and clear her mind. Theo...I mean Leo and I believe this will help her health improve." "I know it's Theo, you don't have to hide it from me," Byron said, hearing that Will corrected himself.

"Dad, how did you find out? Will asked. His eyes flickered with hint of guilt. He was not sure if he had accidentally revealed it when he said something in his sleep.

Byron scoffed lightly, "I may be blind, but I'm not deaf. Haven't you two been talking in front offor days?" 'Do they really think that I've becso insensitive and unaware after losing my sight, Byron thought silently. "Just tell me. It's only a name. What's the big deal that you have to hide it?" Byron pressed further.

After a moment of thought, Will said, "Leo is a nMom made up when our great-grandfather was ill. She mentioned it when she was speaking to my grandparents, and that's how it stuck." It was the sexplanation that Theo gave to Bryon Byron's expression remained unchanged as he asked, "Why did she give him a fake name?" "Maybe it's because Theo is the younger miracle doctor, and it's for his convenience while traveling around?" Will speculated.

Byron chose not to push the matter and said, "Let's just eat Will agreed.

Byron's brows furrowed as he thought to himself. "Theo and Will Is this fate? Even their nicknames were matching" Recalling Theo's tiny stature, Byron suddenly felt that the nicknsuited him perfectly.

This reminded him. Will and Theo had similar physiques as well Byron could not help but wonder if this was simply just a coincidence. 413 Tue, Nov 19 Chapter 379 "By the way, Dad," Will hesitated for a moment but decided to tell the truth, "Mom went to Greenhaven with Jaylen this time." "What?" Byron asked furiously. The next moment, Will heard a loud snap.

He watched helplessly as the fork in Byron's hand broke. He quietly edged away a little.

On the other side, Maeve had been incredibly busy for the past two days in Greenhaver Even though Jaylen offered to be her temporary assistant, she could not actually boss him around. There were stasks that she needed to handle personally.

Fortunately, the designer from Dreamscape arrived soon after, alleviating much of the pressure she was under. She could avoid getting O involved in every little detail. All she needed to do was ensure the overall direction was on track. Warren was also in attendance for the exhibition this time, which clearly showed how much YOKE valued Dreamscape. The evening before the exhibition, Warren invited Maeve and her assistant, who was Jaylen, to join him for dinner at the most iconic restaurant in Greenhaven. Warren was easygoing and humorous. His gentlemanly demeanor made the dinner a very enjoyable experience for Maeve.

Jaylen remained mostly silent, only offering brief responses whenever Warren addressed him. He was generally not too patient with people he was unfamiliar with Warren brought up his daughter once more, expressing his desire to leverage his connections after the exhibition to pick out a few outfits his daughter might like. "You really love your daughter, even though you've never met her. Maeve said to Warren.

She thought back about the packages she had received not too long ago. She did not go to meet the blologikowho were ΟΠ people who were supposedly her biological parents as indicated on the note that day. After that, there were no more packages. Maeve could not quite pinpoint whether it was disappointment or sother feeling stirring inside her. She didn't have any strong feelings for her biological parents. She just wanted to know who they were and why they had never tried to look for her.

Warren smiled gently and replied. "These gifts are meaningless, to be frank. They are more for my peace of mind." Maeve shook her head and said, "Speople out there won't even bother with these. You've already done better than most Warren seemed touched. His gaze carried a hint of affection as he said to Maeve, "Thank you for your kind words. SEND GIFT
