The Heir's Secret Bride

Chapter 351

After sending it, Maeve got up and went to the kitchen. She used a small pot to prepare a remedy for the hangover and kept

it warm.

Byron still had not replied to the last message. Perhaps he had not seen it. Feeling a bit sleepy, she sent him another message: [There's a remedy in the kitchen. Remember to drink before going to bed when you get back. I'm going to sleep.]

After sending the message, she stared at the screen for a while, but there was no response. Waving away the inexplicable sadness, Maeve stretched, took her phone, and went to her room to rest.

For the next three days, Byron did not return. Every time Maeve called to talk about Theo, no one answered. After about an hour, a short message came back: [I'm busy.]

Even Maeve, usually slow to notice, sensed his avoidance.

'Wasn't he busy the last time he was overseas on a business trip?" Maeve thought. But still, the three daily video calls never wavered. As soon as he was done, he would contact her immediately. Maeve could tell the difference between being busy and being perfunctory. She did not understand-What had I done to make him avoid me like this?' Thinking it over carefully, she realized, 'It seemed to have started that night when I made the first move...

Maeye pressed her lips tightly. 'Is he really avoiding me?'

That night, Maeve received a message from Bonnie asking if she wanted to go to the bar to have some fun and check out the handsome men to lift her mood.

She had been running back and forth between the hospital and the studio these past few days, feeling completely drained. After a moment of thought, she replied: [Understood. I will be there in twenty minutes.]

She thought for a moment and replied: Roger that. Be there in twenty minutes.

Bonnie: [Okay!]

Half an hour later, at Starlight Pub.

There was a dress code, so Maeve took off her jacket before entering, revealing a black dress with exposed shoulders. The back extended in a V shape, seemingly casually tied with a black gauze bow.

The dress contrasted with her fair skin, making her stand out under the bar's dim, blurry lights.

All eyes on the first floor turned to her-some gazes were stunned, while others were sizing her up.

Maeve calmly made her way to Bonnie's booth and ordered a glass of wine from the waiter.

"Babe, you're too beautiful tonight," Bonnie said, gazing at her with infatuation. "If I were a man, I'd woo you. How could Mr. Mcdaniel ever have a chance?"

Maeve laughed and replied, "He doesn't have a chance anymore. Let's be together."

Bonnie teased. I don't want Mr. McDaniel coming after me with
