The Heir's Secret Bride

Chapter 318

"This is for you." Maeve handed the bag in her hand to Tom.

Confused, Tom asked, "What is this?"

Maeve explained, "These are some medicines that help with burn scar removal. The instructions on how and when to use them are written on the packages. I consulted a doctor. Since your scars are old, the treatment will take longer. However, there's still a good chance of removing them, so you don't have to worry too much."

Of course, she said this to comfort Tom.

Maeve decided to ask Theo later to see if he could remove the burn scars on Tom's face completely.

Tom's fingertips trembled. He looked at Maeve with mixed feelings.

He asked, "Why are you being so nice to me?"

Not only did she not despise him for his ugly appearance, but she had also been comforting and encouraging him.

They were not even that close to each other.

Maeve had helped him a lot. She had found him a house and a job. On top of that, she cared for him sincerely. He seemed to have gotten too much from her. Everything Maeve had showered him with were things he could no longer have since his disfigurement. Maeve smiled and answered, "The answer is very simple. Of course, it's because I'm kind-hearted."

Tom laughed and said, "Don't be so good to everyone though. Otherwise, you'll be handing your weakness to others. They might use this against you."

From Tom's point of view, Maeve trusted others too easily. He felt somewhat worried for her.

"Will you use my kindness against me?" Maeve asked.

"I won't," Tom said. He then repeated himself, as though he was making a promise to her. "I will never do so to you."

The next day, to Maeve's surprise, Hudson and Clarissa actually came knocking on her door.

Unlike yesterday, they did not rush over excitedly to talk to Tom when they saw him. Instead, they observed him from afar with complicated expressions.

Maeve invited them to the reception room and asked why they had come to the studio.
