The Heir's Secret Bride

Chapter 144

Byron frowned and his voice gradually became cold, "Maeve, be rational. Don't be controlled by your emotions"

Rational

At this moment, he actually thought that she was irrational? He thought that she was controlled by her emotions and she was slandering Karen?

Maeve almost laughed. Her heart was filled with sorrow,

She rubbed the corners of her eyes and did not try to explain to him. Instead, she said, "Byron, do you know how long you've been missing? A whole week. You didn't show up when I was locked in Karen's dark, cold basement. You weren't there when Karen dragged my hair against the bars and my head was dovered in blood. I wanted to call you for help, but your phone would always be switched off."

Hearing this. Byron had some other emotions in his eyes.

Maeve swallowed the bitterness in his throat and looked up at Byron. She asked word by word. You weren't even there when I needed you the most. So, what right do you have to question me about this now?" Her heart bled with every word.

She had been waiting for him to come back, but this was the result.

Byron's complicated gaze landed on Maeve's pale face. His Adam's apple bobbed a few times as he recalled those photos

He said mockingly. "Do you really need me, or are you afraid that I'll continue to pursue the matter of Karen and change the topic?"

Maeve closed her eyes. All the strength in her body was sucked away in an instant. "You can go. I'm going to rest."

Byron glanced at her coldly. Without saying a word, he turned around and left without hesitation.

Just as he was about to step out of the ward, Maeve suddenly asked, "Where have you been all week?"

Byron stopped in his tracks. The aura around him was clearly different from before.

He was like a ferocious beast that was angered, emitting a dangerous and terrifying coldness.

His jawline tightened slightly. Without answering Maeve's question, he walked out of the ward.
