The Heir's Secret Bride

Chapter 409

The meaning behind her words was too obvious. Byron's expression turned slightly cold and he only said one word, "Yes."

In the end, Maeve rejected Warren's proposal, even if he was doing it for her sake.

However, she did not think that it was wrong to have a bad background. She did not have the right to choose her parents and family, nor was she interested in making herself suffer to please the public for the sake of a good reputation. She only needed to be herself. The rest was up to the heavens.

Warren was very regretful, but he still respected her decision.

Maeve felt guilty and touched. To be able to sacrifice so much for a completely unrelated person like her, it could be seen that Warren really treated her as his junior.

However, other than feeling touched, she also felt an indescribable strange feeling in her heart.

Perhaps she was not used to others being so nice to her.

At night, Maeve was invited to attend Warren's banquet. It was said that he wanted to introduce his son, who had just returned to the country, to everyone. Many celebrities and influential people came.

Among the group of wealthy wives, at least half of them are customers of Dreamscape.

Unlike before when they would greet Maeve with big smiles as soon as they saw her, now, as if they were afraid of being associated with the daughter of a wanted criminal, they would pretend not to see her even when she was right in front of them.

As a result, the area around Maeve was just like the Arctic Circle, cold and ignored by everyone.

She didn't mind and took the cake and drink she had just taken to the garden to enjoy.

As she was walking, suddenly the hem of her skirt sank. Fortunately, she managed to stop in time and clutched her chest. Otherwise, the dress would have been pulled down.

Maeve turned around and saw a woman in a golden gown standing there with a provocative gaze.

"The daughter of a wanted criminal dares to come to such a banquet? How shameless. She's really lowering the standards of our guests."

Her two companions behind her immediately laughed when they heard this.

"You already said that she's the daughter of a wanted criminal. I reckon she doesn't even have any sense of shame. If I were her, I would knock my head against the wall and kill myself." "Do you want security to come in and guard us? There's a descendant of a jewelry thief here. I'm really worried about the valuable items on us."
