The Heir's Secret Bride

Chapter 103

Alexis closed her eyes and said, "She's right."

Karen's expression froze, and she said, "Alexis, what are you talking about?"

Alexis i is from a prestigious family and has received strict education since she was young, she thought. She values rules the most. Few people in the Medaniel family dares to talk to her like Maeve does. She should have been angry and dissatisfied. She should have hated Maeve from now on. How come she... Alexis didn't explain. She looked utterly exhausted.

She thought. Ir Byron for

I really haven't considered making an effort to understand my son Byron. With Neville in the picture, I always find myself unconsciously comparing the two. The more I compared, the more distant I became from this biological son of mine. I even resented being so cold toward us and notas considerate and sensible as Neville. When he refused our request for a formal meeting with it's all our fault for forcing him. Maeve, I even thought he had completely detac detached from the family. It turns out that It would be a lie It wo I be a lie to say that she truly didn't mind Alexis's words.

After coming out of the box, Maeve felt as if her heart was stuffed with ice, and her entire body felt cold.

She thought, I really can't understand why Mrs. Mcdaniel would say that Mr. Mcdaniel's future will be ruined by me. I'm not exceptional, nor do I come from a particularly impressive family. But isn't it too much to judge a person's worth solely based on their family background? Marriage is about the compatibility of personalities and habits, not about whose parents are richer. What's more, I didn't get married to someone who will inherit his parents' fortune in the future. I got married to a small-time driver who, despite not having much money, can suddenly produce a Christmas tree. He even occasionally has to work part-time as a bodyguard to earn an extra income.

As I Maeve thought about this, she gradually calmed down. She tucked her hands into the warm pockets of her jacket and relaxed as she continued walking forward.

Suddenly, she saw a a familiar figure walking past her ahead.

Mcdaniel?

She thought, 'Is that a moment. She trotted a few steps forward to chase after the figure.

Maeve was stunned

However, the people who followed quickly surrounded the figure and left with him, as if they were escorting an emperor out on a patrol.

Some of them were even high-ranking senior executives of Eternal Hope. They were all smiling.

The man walking far ahead was like the loneliest and proudest moon in the sky, admirable but out of reach.

"My eyes are playing tricks on me," Maeve mumbled as she stopped in her tracks. She thought, Come to think of it, it's not surprising. There's no way Mr. Mcdaniel would show up here. The big shot who looks noble and elegant is from a completely different world than Mr. Mcdaniel. Besides, given the time now, there's no way he'd be here. He should already be at home waiting for me to come back and celebrate Christmas together. We made plans last night' Maeve smiled and sent Leah a message to ask for leave.

Anyway, the celebratory feast will be fine without me, she thought. I have to go home and celebrate Christmas now,"
