The Heir's Secret Bride

Chapter 411

Maeve rejected his good intentions. "You still have to take care of Mr. Ricard, so I won't trouble you. Goodbye."

"That's a pity. I hope we meet again next time." Arthur sounded regretful. "I heard my father praise you before. He said you were a very talented and smart girl. I've always wanted to have a good chat with you." Maeve smiled faintly. "Thank you for the compliment. There will be a chance in the future."

But she probably wouldn't attend such a banquet again.

The back window was half lowered, and the light inside was dim. The streetlights shone down, outlining a figure.

From a distance, Maeve could not see the man's expression clearly, but he could feel his solid gaze on her.

Like a beast lying dormant in the shadows, patiently waiting for its prey to approach.

Maeve's scalp went numb. Thinking of what the female bodyguard had just said, her heart calmed down a little.

She got into the car and deliberated for a while before typing out a script. She asked him, "Did you specially come to pick me up after the show?"

The first two times had not been pleasant. She had thought that he would draw a line between them.

What happened today surprised her.

"So, you said on the show that I'm

"Yeah."

"When did I agree to be your fiancée?"

Byron raised his eyes slightly and looked at her without any warmth. "That was just a temporary measure."
