The Heir's Secret Bride

Chapter 182

She especially liked Suvin Group's philosophy

It was said that Suvin Group printed a special number on the back of each magazine, designed to assist

disadvantaged women facing difficulties who do not have access to legal aid.

Moreover, there was a dedicated team to address these issues. As long as one could locate a Suvin Group branch

in her country, she could receive their assistance at no cost. Putting all this aside, they enjoyed a very high

status in the fashion world.

"Mr. Brown, what do | need to do now?" Maeve's eyes sparkled like stars. "Suvin Group's head office is overseas.

When will | start off?" Alex's heart was stirred by the shinning light in her eyes. The tips of his cars turned slightly

red, and his heartbeat suddenly becerratic.

He was accustomed to her calm and composed demeanor, so this was the first the had seen her so vibrant

and lively.

"Well." Alex toughed to cover up his embarrassment. personally tomorrow."

"You don't have to go overseas. They said that they will cto see you

Macve was extremely surprised. "They're quite easygoing, aren't they?"

Maeve thought that people from famous foreign magazines were more arrogant.

"Their editor-in-chief appreciates the gowns you designed for Fiora. He believes your design ideas align perfectly

with their philosophy and holds you in high regard." Alex explained. Maeve immediately smiled. "Then I'm

relieved!"

Seeing how happy she was, Alex thought for a moment and asked her, "Maeve, are you free the night after

tomorrow?"

"Yes, what's going on?"

"Forget it, it's not a big deal." Alex smiled gently.

Actually, the last the brought Maeve to the banquet, his parents friend saw it.

His parents had joined forces and kept asking him to bring Maeve hso that they could get to know Maeve.

Although Alex could ask Maeve for help like he did last time, he was more concerned about potentially offending

her than about his own difficulties. Therefore, he decided to let it go. When Maeve heard him say forget it, she

did not think too much about it and continued working.

When she returned to her apartment in the evening, she was surprised to find Byron at home.

During this period of time, Byron had almost disappeared.

Maeve felt that Byron was deliberately avoiding her, so she did not take the initiative to contact him.

Their eyes met across the air.

Byron, who was sitting on the sofa, was the first to speak to her. "Chere."

Maeve pursed her lips, thinking, 'Does he think | am a puppy that will cand go as he please? Chapter 182

She was about to leave with the ingredients when she heard him say, "I brought you a gift

Maeve stopped in her tracks and turned to look at him suspiciously. "A gift? Why did you bringa gift?" Today

was not a festival

As she asked, she slowly moved to Byron's side and saw a black suitcase beside the sofa. ""You're going on a

business trip?" she asked.

"I just cback, Byron replied calmly. He then grabbed her wrist and pulled her onto his lap. Maeve

subconsciously hugged Byron's neck and sat on his side with a dumbfounded expression. She tried to get up, but

her waist was held tightly by his arms and she could not break free at all. She was a little angry. "Did | allow you

to hug me?"

He just went on a business trip, but why did he have to disappear and never contact her? Just as she was angry,

an exquisite sapphire blue gift box appeared in front of her.

Byron's voice had a hint of a smile. "Aren't you going to open it?"

"Don't even think about bribing me, Maeve retorted, pretending to be back-boned.

“Then, she took the gift box from him and opened it.

A pair of heart-shaped pink diamond earrings lay quietly inside the box, their edges adorned with a ring of light-

colored diamonds. They were so stunning that they seemed almost dreamlike. More importantly, it was suitable

for both daily and important occasions.

Maeve's eyes lit up slightly. "You specially picked a gift foron a business trip?"

Byron lifted the hair by her ear. As he helped her put on the earnings, he replied casually, "I just bought them at

a roadside stall. It cost less than 40 dollars."

In other words, he didn't buy them specially.

Maeve wasn't interested in jewelry, but she had seen it too much So she knew it too well.

40 dollars might not even be enough to buy the smallest diamond on an earring, not to mention pink diamonds

with such high purity.

However, the hidden worry in Maeve's heart immediately dissipated.

#40 dollars. Great. It won't be a pity even if | lose them," Maeve said deliberately.

Byron narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at her snow-white carlobes that appeared even more exquisite beneath

the pink diamond earrings. His Adam's apple bobbed a few times, and he couldn't help but lower his gaze. He

gently bit her earlobe, and gave her a warm kiss.

Maeve immediately trembled as if she had been electrocuted. Her calf that was stepping on the carpet

straightened and relaxed. She tried to use the force to escape a few times, but she failed.

In the end, she collapsed in his arms.

Byron knew precisely where her sensitive spots lay. He didn't need to provoke her intentionally, he could make

her surrender in juu a few rounds,

"Wait, wait..." Maeve barely avoided his hot kiss. Her eyes were filled with panic. "You just.. just cback. You

haven't eaten dinner yet. Aren't you hungry?"

Byron's deep eyes seemed to be burning with dark flames, His voice beca little hoarse. I'm enjoying my

dinner now?

Maeve was dumbfounded for a second. Before she could react, she was lifted into the air and carried towards the

bedroom.

As soon as her body sank into the soft bed, the kiss that was wrapped in the scent of pine trees landed on the

side of Maeve's face, her slender neck, and down her collarbone.

He was too domineering. He held her slender wrists firmly with one hand, as if he was afraid that she would run

halfway and not allow her to move.

Maeve's head spun from the kisses, her limbs feeling weak. Even the strength of her push seemed to be yielding

to him.

The earrings he had helped her put on glimmered faintly through her hair, radiating an alluring and seductive

glow.

Byron was about to take off her clothes.

"Wait, wait. Maeve's cheeks flushed a deep red as she wrinkled her nose and grabbed Byron's arm, feeling the

bulging veins beneath her fingers. A slight pain flickered in her lower abdomen

"I can't wait." A drop of sweat rolled down Byron's handsbrow. His expression was tense, and his narrow

eyes were so dark that it made Maeve's heart tremble.

He was about to succeed in getting Maeve.

If he stopped now, he would regret it.

Maeve sensed something and immediately stopped him with a flushed face. "I think I'm going to have my

period!"

As soon as she said this, Byron's face darkened.

"Maeve, you...

"I didn't do it on purpose," Maeve argued before he could say anything. "Is it under my control when my period

comes?"

Byron's cheeks tightened slightly. "You have your period twice a month?"

Maeve blinked, thinking. 'Oh no, | forgot about it.

"I lied to you last time. This time, it's true... Her voice becsofter.

Byron was so angry that he almost laughed. He pinched her chin with a gloomy expression. "How are you going

to compensate me?"

Maeve was flustered. She simply closed her eyes and blurted out "Let's save it for next time, okay?"

Looking at her flushed face, eyes closed, Byron felt his heavy mood lighten just a bit.
