The Heir's Secret Bride

Chapter

60

Byron avoided Karen's hand. Flis gaze was sharp. "Karen, don't make us enemies."

These words made Karen's heart ache. She couldn't believe it. She thought, 'He clearly has feelings for me. Otherwise, out of all the women who want to get close to him, why am I the only one who can stay by his side! Even if I am just a secretary. I am the only female secretary in the secretary's office. Karen's eyes were red as she clenched her fists to prevent herself from losing her composure in front of Byron. "Got it. I'll leave now, Mr. Mcdaniel."

nodded casually and returned his attention to the pile of documents.

Karen walked out of the office in her high heels and found a quiet place to calm down. Then, she took out her phone and made a call. "Ms. Reese, this is Karen."

Maeve's work today was surprisingly smooth, probably because there was no more sarcasm. The two prototypes she had made were mostly done. All that was left was the details.

Before she got off work, she received a call from Karen.

"Ms. Reese, you're Byron's maid. You have heard about his wife, right?" Karen spoke faster, "I want to know who she is and where she comes from." Maeve frowned slightly. "Ms. Booth, you should ask Mr. Mcdaniel about this."

Karen only knew Byron was married now, which meant he deliberately hid it from Karen. In that case, it would be best if Maeve did not say anything.

Karen continued, "This is very important to me. I don't know why Byron refused to tell me and even told me not to care about such a small matter. But how can I not care? Please do this as a favor to me. If Byron asks, say that I forced you to say it. He won't do anything to Maeve felt her heart aching. She couldn't explain why but she just felt upset. Tm sorry. I can't help you. You should ask someone else." She took a deep breath and hung up.

Maeve stood there in a daze for a while before packing up and leaving the company.
