Maeve tried to keep a straight face. She said, "I don't think I've agreed to be your girlfriend, yet you're taking advantage of me right off the bat. Where's your sense of chivalry?"

Moreover, they were right in front of the studio. Maeve was concerned that someone she knew might spot them.

Byron chuckled and pinched her delicate earlobe. He teased, "Compared to taking advantage of you, chivalry is worthless to me."

Maeve's cheeks instantly puffed up. She was about to retort when she heard someone knocking on the car window.

She thought, 'Were we seen?'

"Tom, can I help you?" Maeve asked guiltily as she lowered the car window.

Tom handed her bag over. He said, "You left this."

Maeve scolded herself internally for being so careless. She said, I forgot. Thank you!"

Tom shook his head slightly. He looked past her, and his gaze met Byron's in the driver's seat. There was a hint of scrutiny.

"Don't stay out too late. Take care of yourself," Tom reminded Maeve in a low voice before turning to leave.

Maeve asked, "How so?"

Byron said, "He looked at me as though I was the bad boy who wanted to elope with his precious daughter."

Maeve was speechless.

She thought, 'What kind of description was that?'

Maeve chuckled. She asked, "How can Tom be my father at his age? At most, he'll be like an uncle."

Actually, Maeve also felt that there were times when Tom did look at her like a father.
