The Heir's Secret Bride

Chapter 158

"I'll fix it!" Maeve raised her hand. "I'll put it in the washing machine for you. You can watch it wash the shirt. Is that okay?"

A faint smile appeared in Byron's eyes. "Sure."

The sharp stone stuck in Maeve's heart seemed to have been sharpened in an instant and no longer hurt.

She smiled and finally felt relieved. "It's just that I won't have a home anymore. I can live on my own."

She didn't care about her family any longer, who had only kept asking her for money.

Hearing this, Byron frowned. "What are you talking about?"

Maeve looked up at him blankly from the towel.

"Maeve, you seem to have forgotten something." Byron raised his eyebrows, his gaze extremely aggressive. "We're not divorced yet."

In an instant, Maeve's heart began to race, as well as her blood.

She widened her teary eyes slightly, and her beautiful eyes shone brightly.

After a while, Maeve suddenly calmed down when she realized that there was another meaning behind his words.

She barely suppressed her joy. As she wiped her face, she pretended to say casually, "It's only a matter of time before we're divorced, right?"

Byron did not say anything about this.

He never made meaningless promises.

Maeve's action of wiping her face slowed down, and she felt that the vigor in her was gone.

Maeve thought that since he didn't deny it, it meant that he still wanted to divorce her, but not now.

She supposed it wouldn't change that their marriage had always been time-barred and would end at any time.

In the bedroom in the Reese family's place, Horace stood by the window with his phone. From there, he could see the situation at the intersection of the neighborhood. When his cell phone rang, he answered it immediately.

It was unknown what the caller said, but Horace slammed the window frame angrily.

Horace yelled, "There's a pile of waste paper in her bag? Where's the card? Where's the money? Doesn't she keep that in her bag? Search it carefully!"

The caller said, "We've searched a few times, and her card isn't in the bag, so how are we gonna get that for you? Seriously. You even said that your sister is rich, but in the end, there are only about 20 dollars in her wallet." Horace pulled his hair. "She definitely didn't bring her card with her. Damn it, I miscalculated. I thought she'd bring it with her whenever she came home."
