The Heir's Secret Bride

Chapter 383

There were still many VIPs who hadn't left and wanted to get to know Maeve representing Dreamscape.

Dreamscape had already gained fame in Kleymond and was just taking its first step in Greenhaven.

However, the feedback from the VIP'S on the spot proved that Dreamscape had taken this step very successfully.

It was almost half past eight when Maeve finally got away from those VIPs and returned backstage. She was a little surprised to see Jaylen standing there with a bouquet of flowers.

Maeve said in a surprising tone, "I thought you were going to rest at the hotel today."

After all, he looked very uncomfortable in the morning.

"I said I'd come to see your exhibition. Of course, I won't go back on my word." Jaylen handed the flowers to her with a smile on his lips. "Congratulations. This fashion exhibition was a success. I sat down and heard everyone praise you." There was nothing happier than having a career affirmed. Maeve smiled and took the bouquet of flowers. "Thank you. Do you want to go to the celebration banquet with me later?"

Jaylen nodded happily. "You've already invited me. How can I not go?"

Maeve smiled. She could not help but look around from the corner of her eye. Perhaps she did not see the person she wanted to see, but a hint of disappointment flashed across her heart.

*****The restaurant for the celebration banquet was chosen by Maeve. Together with Trazir's higher-ups, the entire second floor was booked.

Mr. Warren was unable to come due to an emergency and expressed his regret to Maeve over the phone.

Maeve was already hungry. After giving her speech on stage, she sat down and started eating.

There were more dishes ordered. She was halfway through her meal when more dishes arrived one after another.

Jaylen picked up a serving of fork pork ribs for her. "Are these dishes that delicious?"

She had an elegant way of eating. Even when she ate quickly, it didn't seem rude. Instead, it made people think that the food in front of her was very delicious. He, who had a poor appetite, ate half a bowl more rice just by looking at her. Maeve had something in her mouth that she could not answer, so she nodded.
