The Heir's Secret Bride

Chapter 204

Maeve had never seen Byron so gentle and doting to anyone, not even to her.

Maeve looked at the couple on the screen in a daze. A hint of bitterness surged in her throat.

A week ago, she foolishly waited for him in the detention center. She thought something important had held him up and thus did not come to see her.

He actually had someone else in his arms and seemed too preoccupied to care about anything else. 'Next month, on the third, they're getting engaged. That's fast, isn't it?'

Maeve thought to herself self-deprecatingly as she walked forward in a daze. She did not even notice that a car was approaching.

"Watch out!" A shout came from her back, then a pair of hands grabbed her arms and pulled her back.

A car almost brushed past Maeve's back as it sped by. Maeve's heart pounded wildly, and her limbs bad gone weak when she

came to her senses.

Not far away, a black Rolls-Royce was parked by the roadside. The window of the backseat rolled down, and a pair of brown and cold eyes looked straight in their direction as if they wanted to burn through the bodies of the man and woman who were hugging by the roadside.

Byron's lips curled into a mocking smile. He instructed the driver to start driving coldly. "Yes, Mr. Mcdaniel, the driver said.

As soon as Maeve regained her senses, she immediately withdrew from Alex's arms and thanked him with a pale face. "Alex, thank you"

"Not at all, as long as you're fine, Alex said gently and forcefully "But what's wrong with you? You were so distracted even when crossing the road. Do you know it's so dangerous?"

Maeve's face instantly turned even paler. T'm sorry...
