The Heir's Secret Bride

Chapter 419

Maeve asked.casually as he entered

Byron carried her and the two little ones' luggage into the elevator. When he heard this, he replied calmly, "I need to go on a business trip, so I bought a few properties in various countries." For example, there were several sets of different sizes in Estan.

He was quite particular about life and wasn't accustomed to staying in hotels, so he just went ahead and bought houses all over the place.

Maeve Reese was at a loss for words." Buying a house in every country just to go on a business trip?

Not to mention how much money it would cost, ordinary people did not seem to be able to do this.

The Mcdaniel Group seemed to be even more impressive than she had pictured.

But she was only the daughter of a wanted crook...

Maeve Reese dropped her gaze to hide the sadness in her peepers.

She wasn't the type to feel small, but lately, she could feel the gap between her and Byron Mcdaniel getting bigger and bigger

That was a gaping divide that she couldn't bridge even if she gave it her all.

While she was distracted, she arrived at the third floor.

The two rugrats were all about snuggling with Maeve Reese tonight. But Byron Mcdaniel snatched them up under the pits and told Maeve Reese to chill first before hauling them off to the next room. The two tots were kicking their little legs and reaching out to mommy all whiny.

Who would want to sleep with their father!

They wanted their mother!

Maeve Reese caught sight of their boss's sourpuss expression and cracked up.

She was curious about what Byron Mcdaniel was going to do with them.

Somebody had tidied up the room beforehand. It was spick-and-span, so there was no need to worry.

Maeve Reese packed her luggage, took her pyjamas, and went to the bathroom to take a bath.

She was a little overwhelmed by what had happened tonight. When she suddenly relaxed, she was a little sleepy. She leaned against the edge of the bathtub and fell asleep.
