The Heir's Secret Bride

Maeve held on to a sliver of hope, her fingers trembling as she reached under Jaylen's nose.

Jaylen was no longer breathing. He really passed away.

Jaylen who told her in the morning that he was going to see the lake scenery was now in her arms, having lost all his warmth.

"You're lying. You didn't even drink the coffee..." Repressed sobs rang out in the small parlor and gradually turned into heartbroken wailing. The drops of coffee spilled on the corner of the table fell even faster. Only the coffee at Jaylen's feet seemed to have become still.

The miracle doctor ultimately failed to drink the cup of coffee brewed by his sweetheart.

In the Greenhaven Hospital.

The people of Chatterly family rushed here overnight after receiving the notification. They confirmed from the doctor that Jaylen was dead. Mrs. Chatterly was so sad that she almost fainted.

Others surrounded Maeve and questioned her about how Jaylen could have died while on a perfectly normal trip.

"I'm sorry." Maeve bowed to them and in a hoarse voice explained to them everything that had happened last night and the fact that Jaylen had been ill for a long time.

The Chatterly family did not believe it at all. The doctor said that Jaylen died of illness, but he was still healthy on Charles's birthday bash not long ago!

Betty, who had lost her beloved son and was out of her mind, grabbed Maeve by the shoulders and questioned her if there was something hidden.

Maeve endured the pain in her shoulder and did not dodge. The corners of her eyes were wet and red as she silently accepted the anger and accusations of the Chatterly family. "Jaylen's assistant is here. If you have any questions, feel free to ask him." A deep and cold voice came from behind Maeve.

She turned around in a daze and saw Byron walking over with Archer and Daryl.

He was still wearing sunglasses and walked a little slower. He did not let anyone help him and walked steadily and accurately to Maeve.
