The Heir's Secret Bride

Alex thought that she was joking. His eyes looked so gently. Then I'll have to rely on Maeve for the rest of my life."

"Don't worry about that," Maeve said.

Maeve did not understand the hidden meaning in Alex's words. She only felt that she was delighted to be able to help him.

The next night.

At the Crystal Jade Club

Rows of luxurious cars were parked at the main entrance. A red carpet was spread from the car park to the banquet hall entrance. It was brightly lit in the club, and everyone was toasting

Maeve held Alex's hand, and they entered together. She followed him to greet the host of the banquet. She smiled appropriately, neither servile not overbearing.

Alex was originally worried that Maeve would not be used to such an occasion. He did not expect her to be so composed. She did not show any fear.

No matter what topic the other party asked, Maeve could answer easily.

Maeve did not look like a girl from an ordinary family at all. Instead, she was more like a young lady from a wealthy family with a good upbringing

The luster in Alex's eyes moved slightly. He looked at Maeve, and his heart started throbbing faster.

After exchanging formalities, Alex brought Maeve to the rest area. "Maeve, you haven't recovered from your cold yet. I brought you a cup of coffee to keep you warm."

"Thank you." Maeve smiled and took the cup of coffee. After drinking it, her abdomen felt warm.

Narrowing her eyes in pleasure, Maeve put the cup on the table. As she turned, she accidentally bumped her shoulder into a waitress carrying a tray.

The red wine on the tray spilled down. Even though Alex took a few steps back with Maeve, she did not manage to avoid the wine totally. The color of the red wine was especially eye-catching on her apricot-colored skirt. The waitress hurriedly apologized. I'm sorry, Miss. I'm really sorry."

Seeing that the waitress was so anxious that she was about to cry, Maeve waved her hand and comforted her. "It's okay. I'll go to the washroom to take care of it.

There are clothes for the guests in the changing room upstairs. Shall I bring you upstairs to change?" The waitress still looked apologetic. "I'm really sorry!" "Maeve, shall I go with you?" Alex frowned slightly and looked at Maeve worriedly. "You won't feel comfortable wearing wet clothes. It'll be terrible if you catch a cold" Maeve shook her head. "It's okay. It's not a big deal. She can just accompany me up. I'll be back soon."

"If you need anything, you must let me know immediately, Alex said.

Maeve replied, "Sure."

At this moment, there was a commotion at the entrance of the banquet hall

D

Some people gasped Insurprise from time to time when they saw the slender and noble figure appear. Some of the guests even trembled

His facial features were perfect, his eyes were dark, and his every move was calm and noble. No one dared to look at his directly

The limelight of the entire banquet hall seemed to be on him. He was the focus of everyone's attention.

Even the host of the banquet smiled in a flattering manner as he followed him.

In Kleymond, Byron Mcdaniel was no different from a king

Not only because of his powerful background, but also because of his outstanding ability to become the CEO of the Mcdaniel Group at such a young age Most of the young men in Kleymond could not be like him.

Maeve looked in that direction in a daze. She looked at the big shot who was not very friendly to Alex just now. Now he was trying his best to please Byron Mcdaniel

She had always felt the difference in status between Byron and her. It was as if they were separated by a big gap. It was difficult for them to communicate or understand each other.

Especially when Maeve saw Karen standing beside Byron with a dignified smile, Maeve felt worse.

"Maeve, what's wrong?" Alex did not notice the commotion at the entrance. When he saw that Maeve did not look too good. he asked worriedly, "Are you feeling unwell? Go and change quickly. Don't make yourself sick." Maeve blinked her dry eyes and nodded at Alex. Tll go now. Please wait for me."

"Okay, I'm going to make a call anyway?" said Alex.

Maeve followed the waitress upstairs. Karen happened to look in that direction and saw Maeve going upstairs

Her eyes flashed, and she said gently to Byron, "Byron, I am going to the washroom."

"Sure Byron's expression was calm. It was impossible to tell if he was happy or angry.

Karen bit her lower lip and said angrily, "My mother asked you to bring me so that I won't be bored. Why didn't you remind me to do that? If I'm lost here, aren't you afraid that you can't answer to my mother?" Byron should at least show some concern for Karen. She was still unwell.

Byron looked at her strangely. "Your mother asked me to bring you out to relax. She didn't ask me to tie you up

If Karen could get lost in such a place, Byron would probably have to get the doctor to do a CT scan on her brain when she returned. That would see if she was alright.

Karen felt insulted and walked away with an embarrassed expression. Instead of going to the washroom, she went upstairs. Half an hour later, in the changing room upstairs. Maeve changed into the clothes the waitress had brought over. When Maeve came out of the cubicle, she realized that the gown she had changed out of was gone. Maeve wondered, 'Could the waitress have washed it for me? At least let me know...

Feeling puzzled, Maeve walked to the mirror and saw the cleaning uniform she was wearing. She raised her thin eyebrows slightly.

No wonder the waitress said that there was only one set of clothes left. She even took Maeve's dirty gown away. ¥:75%This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

If Maeve wore the cleaning uniform downstairs, she would probably be carried out by the security guards at the banquet

A banquet at the Crystal Jade Club had strict rules for the guests attire.

Maeve was about to call Alex for help when she remembered that she had left her bag outside. The bag had also been taken

away.

This was getting out of hand. Maeve could either go out in the uniform or stay here and wait for Alex to come up to look for her. She sat on the sofa and sighed Maeve heard a clicking sound.

The door of the changing room was suddenly opened. Maeve stood up and turned around, thinking that it was Alex.

In the end, a ferocious-looking middle-aged man, John Fett, walked in. His footsteps were unsteady.

When he saw Maeve standing inside, a hint of surprise flashed across John's narrowed eyes. He rubbed his hands and walked forward with a wretched smile.

John commented, "A banquet for a wealthy family is indeed different. Even the cleaner is so beautiful"

"Sir, this is the ladies' changing room. Please leave. Maeve stood up and scolded coldly.

John exclaimed, "Quite hot-tempered beauty. I like red hot chili peppers like you."

As John spoke, he suddenly grabbed Maeve's hand and leaned forward to kiss her.

The sour taste of the wine from John's mouth made Maeve nauseous. lost. Stay away from me."

She was s sa disgusted that she kicked his knee. "Get

"Ouch!" The middle-aged man screamed in pain and glared at her with gritted teeth. "You better know your place and do what's good for you. You are just a cleaner. There's no woman I can't have. If you know what's good for you, accompany me for the night, and let me have a good time. Otherwise, I'll have you fired immediately
