The Heir's Secret Bride

hapter 97

At this moment, Byron turned to look at her and asked, "What are you daydreaming about?"

"Nothing." Maeve said, snapping out of her thoughts. She then walked up to him. "How come there's a tree here?"

"It's a gift from Ray." Byron's expression was indifferent. "He suddenly said he wanted to celebrate Christmas and went up the mountain with Jarrett to look for this kind of fir. He also sent one to me Actually, Ray and Jarrett went to steal trees behind the resort owned by Mcdaniel Group and got caught by someone who was sent to transplant the fir. Hence, the laborers who were supposed to transplant the fir ended up being them.

However, Byron thought there was no need to tell her this.

Maeve opened her mouth. "But Mr. Mcdaniel, Christmas trees are usually placed at home to create a festive atmosphere and are generally small and delicate. Isn't this one too tall?" It was ten feet tall.

Byron frowned slightly. "Are you talking about that kind of trash that is replaced every year and is such a hassle to dispose of? How can this tree not be comparable to that kind of thing?" 'Does this woman have any taste?' he thought.

The corner of Maeve's mouth began to twitch when she heard the words "trash that is such a hassle to dispose of".

She suddenly thought of a question. "Mr. Mcdaniel, is it okay for this tree to be planted in the courtyard? Will the landlord criticize you?"

Byron's expression froze. "No, the tenants have the right to use the courtyard here."

Maeve

e frowned in confusion. "Speaking of which, after living here for a while, I don't think I've seen any other tenants. We are not the only ones in the whole apartment building, right?" She guessed correctly.

The whole apartment building belonged to Byron, so there were naturally no other tenants.

"I'm not sure. I haven't paid attention." Byron looked away calmly. "If you're curious, you can knock on every door and ask."

"Forget it then. Maybe it's just a coincidence that we didn't run into them." Maeve's curiosity wasn't strong enough to go that far. Looking at the bare fir tree in front of her, she was a little tempted. "Can I decorate it then?"

"Up to you," Byron said indifferently. "I'm not interested in this kind of thing."

"Help me hold the ladder when the time comes then."

"Sure."

Sure.
