The Heir's Secret Bride

Chapter 481 Maeve's expression darkened./"Is this what Mr. Mcdaniel wants?" "Yes," Molly looked at her without giving in. "Please make an appointment before coming." Maeve looked past Molly to the closed door of Byron's office. Her lips curled into a self-deprecating smile.

I have sent him a message saying I am coming over, thought Maeve. If he does not wantto come, he can reply to me.

What does he mean by asking Molly to stop me? Does he not know I mind what happened between him and Molly, his first love? No, he knew It was precisely because he knew but still did it that Maeve couldn't accept it.

Maeve's jealousy and grievance that cto an abrupt end yesterday had reached its peak at that moment. Maeve did not want to stay there to see Molly's expression. She grabbed her handbag and turned to leave.

She walked to the elevator angrily and accidentally bumped into a cold and hard human wall. "What's wrong?" Byron's cold voice sound from above her head. "You're also walking so recklessly." Maeve looked up in surprise. "You weren't in your office just now? "No" Byron's expression was indifferent. "What's the matter?" He did not mention he had rushed back after receiving her message at the inspection site.

free now?" Maeve was taken aback by his attitude and pursed her red lips. "I need to talk to you. Are you Byron stared at her quietly for a few seconds. Then, he nodded calmly and led the way to his office.

Maybe it was because he had developed a habit of holding her hand recently, Maeve subconsciously reached out to his hand but realized he had walked far away, leaving her feeling hollow inside. 'Have I been subconsciously influenced by him?' thought Maybe.

Molly was still standing there. Maeve glanced at her without stopping when she passed by her.

Molly bit her lower lip, feeling a little indignant.

'I had almost succeeded. Would Maeve complain to Mr. Mcdaniel?' thought Molly.

Sitting casually on the sofa, Byron flipped through the documents in his hand without even looking up. His face as cold as if was talking to a subordinate at the company, "What's up?" Maeve didn't know where to start.

D Perhaps she had been spoiled by him recently. She could not even stand his little coldness.

Maeve placed the notebook on the table. Byron only glanced at before turning a blind eye and looking away. She immediately felt it was troublesand braced herself to say, "You can keep this forif you want. It doesn't matter if you burn it. You can do whatever you want." "What do you mean?" Byron asked faintly, "You might have misunderstood last night. I'm not crying because I still have feelings for my high school crush. I've even 1/3 111 r 17:10 Sat, Jan 4 B BB Chapter 481 forgotten what he looks like, How can I still have feelings for him?" At this point, Maeve lowered her voice. "Anyway, it's not what you think." 0 +5 Byron paused as he flipped through the documents. His well-defined fingers pinched the edge of the paper, giving it a sharp sense of beauty.

He looked up at Maeve expressionlessly. "Prove it to me." "What?" Maeve was confused.

"Didn't you say you no longer have any feelings for that person?" Byron's thin lips curled into a mocking smile. "I want you prove it to me." Maeve was at a loss for words and didn't know what kind of expression she should have.

How am I supposed to prove it? I don't even remember what he looks like or where he is now. Where am I supposed to go prove it to him?' thought Maeve.

"Isn't your request a little too much?" Maeve hesitated. "Such matter...isn't it the matter of personal belief?" Byron gave a half-smile. "So you can't prove it? Then how do you expectto believe you?" Compared to what she said, her tears and sleep talk I saw with my eyes reflected what she was really thinking. There is no doubt she has that man in her heart, thought Byron.

Hence, he did not believe a single word Maeve said.

Maeve felt Byron was a little arrogant. She felt helpless and said, "You don't believe me?" "Maeve, if you want to persuade the other party during negotiations, you should show your sincerity by offering equivalent value chips, which will facilitate subsequent progress," Byron said indifferently. "I can't see your sincerity." "But I'm not one of those people you meet in business." Maeve refuted, holding back her urge to cry. "Is it fair for to holdto the sstandards as them?" The air in the room froze for a moment.

Byron turned his head slightly and looked at her coldly. "If I used the sstandard on you, you couldn't even enter this door today.

"Maeve, you don't even seem to understand why I'm angry, and you wantto believe your explanation. Am I that easy to fool in your eyes?" 'Maybe it's because I've been too nice to her recently, so nice that she's started to believe I'm a good person. That's she keeps testing my limits again and again,' thought Byron.

Maeve choked. "I'm not fooling you. It's you who don't believe what I said." "I also said you have to show your sincerity if you wantto believe you." Byron tapped the table with his fingertips. "Where is your sincerity? Is it just this notebook?" The notebook with a cartoon sticker on the cover lay quietly on the table. For sreason, it felt ridiculous.

it even reminded Maeve of herself.

The way I'm trying to explain myself to Byron is as ridiculous as the notebook. He doesn't believe a word I say, so it's useless no matter how I explain it. Anything said by someone who doesn't trustis an excuse,' thought Maeve.

2/3 17:10 Sat, Jan 4 GBB.

Chapter 481 Maeve's shoulders suddenly relaxed. Her heart felt as if it had been torn open by someone, and a cold wind filled it.

She felt a little powerless and no longer had the rationality and impulse to explain herself.

Maeve picked up the notebook on the table and left without saying another word.

Perhaps it is a mistake forto chere today,' thought Maeve.

59% Maeve walked out of the office and saw Molly walking toward her with a cup of coffee in her hand. The helplessness in her heart intensified.

"Ms. Reese, I'm sorry just now. I'm just following the rules, Molly said to E Maeve in a soft voice. "Please step aside. I need to bring the coffee in." Maeve's eyes turned bitter as she made way for Molly.

Recalling Byron's cold attitude just now, Maeve's heart ached even more.

She thought, 'He insists I still have feelings for my high school crush, Is m it because I cried last night for... he is the same, judging others by himself? Otherwise, I can't understand why he minds the matter so much. Molly quietly tidied up her clothes at the door, then nervously walked into the office and placed the coffee before Byron who exuded a cold aura.

"Mr. Mcdaniel, your coffee." said Molly.

Get out." Byron's gaze fell on the document, but he could not read a word.

Molly muffled, "I consulted someone about the coffee this time."

"I said, get out." Byron cast a cold glance at her, like a deadly cold m sword. "Do you not understand human language? If you don't want to work here, get lost." +5 3/3 SEND GIFT
