The Heir's Secret Bride

Chapter 212

However, the Queen was very busy. Maeve would only see her when she needed to take the Queen's measurements for her clothes.

On the other hand, Loren would occasionally come to her house for a free meal or to bring some high-tech toys for Theo.

Even when she had another identity, Maeve had never tried to go out of her way to please them, merely treating them with basic human decency.

After chatting for a while, Karina went back to work.

At this moment, the little boy had also spotted Maeve. His round eyes instantly lit up and he pounced at Maeve.

""Mommy! I missed you so much!"

Maeve did not know whether to laugh or cry. "You've only been out for less than an hour. Did you miss me that much?" Theodore shook his head, "As the saying goes, absence makes the heart grow fonder. It's even more so for me!" "You and your silly ideas," Maeve said as she picked him up, tapping the tip of his nose. "If you missed me so much, why didn't you stay here with me?"

"Hehe, of course, I went to help you gather information!" Theo patted the notebook in his arms mysteriously.

Maeve looked at it curiously. "What is this?"

"Mommy's court uniform research report!" Theo answered,

Maeve had not expected that Theo had been running around the palace for this.

"Thank you, Theo." Maeve lowered her head and kissed his soft cheek. She smiled and said, "You've really helped me a lot." Theo blushed as he wrung his hands together, "Not really, just a little."

Maeve carried him out of the garden and climbed into the car that the palace had provided for her. They left the palace and headed home.

As Maeve opened the door, she asked, "Have you finished your homework for today? Don't wait for Jaylen to come back and check on you. If that happens, he'll give you more."

Theodore immediately wrinkled his nose, "Mommy, why don't we lock the door tonight and not let Jaylen in?"

"Who aren't you going to let in?" A disgruntled voice came from the living room.

Maeve was stunned for a moment before Theo was lifted from her arms.

The man was dressed in gray traditional clothes. After a few years, the disillusioned look in his eyes had become more mature and stable, and he was much gentler "Jaylen?" Maeve was a little surprised. "Weren't you supposed to come back in two days? Did you finish what you needed to

do?

Jaylen nodded and weighed the young boy in his arms. He said in disdain, "No wonder your mother calls you Theo. You're getting even chubbier. You should eat less" These words made Theo so angry that he puffed his cheeks up.
