The Heir's Secret Bride

Chapter 322

She had no intention of treating him as a backup and there were no feelings between her and Jaylen.

Anyway, Byron had once treated her as someone's substitute. The crisis in their relationship never cfrom

outside.

Following Maeve's silence, a hint of mockery appeared in Byron's eyes. "Maeve, if you want to be his fiancée,

leave now. | won't stop you. So we're done here

The bitterness in her heart reached its peak in an instant, and Marve almost couldn't control it from gushing out

of her

eyes.

She bit her lower lip hard and tried so hard to expel the painful emptiness in her body as she turned around and

twisted the doorknob. She forced herself not to look back as she trudged out of the study. When her figure

disappeared from his sight, the air dropped to the freezing point. His dark eyes were malicious and cold. ‘Good

So good..

When she returned to her apartment and closed the door, the calmness that Maeve had put on was instantly

shattered. She leaned against the door dejectedly and sat on the cold floor, her heart throbbing in pain. God

seemed to like to joke with her. Every tshe thought she could be happy, her hope was shattered completely.

Ever since she was young, she had never liked someone so much. Byron was the first. She liked staying with

him. Every tshe turned around, he was always behind her. However, it ended so quickly in less than half a

year. "Mom, are you okay?" Will cout to drink water. When he saw Maeve sitting on the floor in a daze, he

ran o her up. "What happened? Are you feeling unwell?" over to help

Maeve forced a smile, but it was even uglier than crying. "Mommy is fine. | have a cramp in my leg, so | sit there

for a break."

"Then hurry up and sit on the sofa. I'll rub it for you." Will's words were filled with concern.

"There's no need. Mommy is much better now. Thank you, my sweetie." She patted his little head

Will's face was slightly blushed. When he looked down and saw the blood on Maeve's palm, his expression

changed drastically. "Mom, why is your hand bleeding?"

Her palms were covered in blood. She had probably exerted too much strength to control her emotions.

Will pulled her to the living room and sat down. Then he brought the first aid kit over to wash and apply medicine

for her scars. The little guy felt worse than her. He frowned tightly, afraid that it would hurt her, and blew on it

softly. Maeve's broken heart flowed with a trace of warmth.

At this moment, a small head popped out from the armrest of the sofa. "Mommy, your hand is bleeding. Who did

this Theo was wearing cow pajamas, crawled over the armrest, and stuck to Maeve with an indignant expression.

"It's a mistake. It's fine. It doesn't hurt at all, Maeve explained.

At the thought that her mother had just returned from her father's place, a guess arose in Will's heart. 'Did Mom

and Dad have a fight?"

Theo was more careless. He just pouted and blew on Maeve's palm.

Will pushed him away. "You're disturbing me."

Theo retorted. "Letdo it. I'm a doctor!"

Will turned his back to his brother in rejection. "It's almost done Tomorrow is your

Theo nodded reluctantly. "All right." As a mature brother, he should be magnanimou

"Good boys, | want to tell you something." Maeve hesitated for a long tand decided to talk to the two little

ones. She didn't want to hide this from them.

The two cool little faces looked up at her cutely. "Mommy, just say it

Marve took a deep breath. "Your father and | might live separately in the future. And for sreason, I'm

someone else's Giancee now."

Will had already guessed that her parents had quarreled, but he didn't expect the rest.

"Mom, don't you like Dad anymore?" Will was puzzled. "Or are you forced?" He could tell how genuine the

affections in their parents eyes were when they were together. Will was more inclined to believe that her mother

had sdifficulties. Theo thought of something and asked in a cute voice, "Mommy, is he my senior?"

Maeve nodded. "He only has half a year left. He hopes that Mommy can be his fiancée during his last moments.

I'm sorry. Mommy has agreed."

Theo shook his head. "Mommy, you don't have to apologize to us. This is your life. No matter what choice you

make, we will support you unconditionally."

Will agreed, but he was a little puzzled. "Who's your senior?"

Theo leaned over and whispered something in his ear.

Will knew that her mother and brother used to suffer, but when he heard that her mother had depression

because she missed him too much, he still felt guilty. He could understand why his mother had agreed to that

man. The favor meant a lot, and she had to repay it. But it was not fair for his dad.

Will stayed in Maeve's arms for a while. Suddenly, he raised his head and asked, "Mom, do you still love Dad?"

Maeve was silent for a few seconds. "I love him. I've always loved him."

Will breathed a sigh of relief. That's all | need. As long as Mommy's heart is still with Dad, Dad still has a chance!"

Maeve was originally worried that the two little ones would not be able to accept this, especially Will, who wished

his to be together forever.

parents

On the surface, Theo seemed to be at odds with Byron, but he knew that this was the way they had fun together.

So he had expectations for his father. "Mommy, | don't mind that you love him, but you must lovethe most!"

Theo wriggled his little butt into Maeye's arms. "He doesn't smell good like me."

Maeve was silent. It seemed that the little guy was more enthusiastic about competing with his father for love.

Not to be overshadowed, Will hugged Maeve's arm. too. I'm not greedy. | can be behind Theo." In terms of

status in her mother's heart, even his biological father had to take a step back.

Maeve felt both amused and touched as she hugged the two chubby children. "Okay, Mommy loves my boys the

most. No one can compare to you.

The two little ones smiled brilliantly.

"By the way, Will, Mom wants to ask you something" Maeve blinked, "Have you seen the photo frin your

dad's study?"
