The Heir's Secret Bride

Chapter 320 +5

Maeve returned to the living room and saw Jaylen leaning against the chaise lounge, seemingly asleep. His eyes were tightly shut, and his face was sickly pale.

When she saw that the tray on the table was empty, she heaved a sigh of relief. However, she choked when she saw some residue of the medicine in the potted plant beside Jaylen. Just as Daryl had said, Jaylen had thrown the medicine away.

"Why are you back?" Jaylen heard the commotion and slowly opened his eyes. He looked at Maeve in surprise. "Did you come back to check if I've taken the medicine? Don't worry. I've taken it." Maeve thought to herself, 'As if.

Maeve was very upset, but she did not expose him. She walked over and squatted by the side of the chaise lounge. She said, "After I gave birth, I suffered from depression. I was barely holding on for the sake of Theo. At that time, you were the one who kept encouraging me to overcome my depression and survive."

She thought to herself, 'Now, it is my turn to help you. I owe you this, so I should pay you back!'

Maeve looked Jaylen straight in the eyes and said seriously, "I promise to fulfill your wish. Now, please live for my sake."

Jaylen's eyes, which were devoid of hope, suddenly lit up.

He asked, "Are you really willing to be my fiancée?"

Maeve clenched her fists and forcefully suppressed the panic in her heart. She nodded and said, "I'm willing."

Jaylen stared at her for a long time. He initially wanted to hug her, but in the end, he only patted her head.

He knew very well that her promise had nothing to do with her romantic feelings for him. She was just pitying him because he did not have much time left.

Jaylen thought, 'So what? At the very least, she would be mine for a short time during the last part of my life. That is enough.

"For you, I will try my best to live," Jaylen murmured, as if he was making a promise.

With his assurance, the burden in Maeve's heart eased a little.

After watching Jaylen take the medicine, Maeve left and drove back to her apartment.

Byron had brought the kids back in the afternoon. When Maeve reached home, Will and Theo were sitting on the carpet in the living room doing handicraft homework.

Will was better at handicraft. He used white plasticine to make a cruise ship. The details were so exquisite that the ship was comparable to a figurine. When placed on the table, it looked impressive.
