The Heir's Secret Bride novel Chapter 270

Chapter 270
Byron was tall and had long legs, so the sofa could not completely accommodate him.
Maeve laughed in her heart. You’re asking for it. I told you not to stay here. Are you so afraid that I will hurt Will?
The entire building belonged to him and he had plenty of places to live.
That’s all I have. Mr. Mcdaniel, if you can’t get used to it, you can go back to your place and pick up Will tomorrow. I guarantee that he’ll be fine,” Maeve said deliberately.
Byron looked up slightly and replied to her unhurriedly. Tim afraid I’m going to let you down. I’ve lived here longer than you. How can I not be used to it?”
“Then wish you a good night.” Maeve put on a fake smile and ended this sarcastic argument. She turned around and returned to the master bedroom, thinking that after Byron fell asleep, she would go to the kids’ room.
But if he found out, it would be over.
Unexpectedly, the door behind her suddenly opened again and Byron walked in.
Maeve was slightly stunned. “What are you doing?
Byron looked at her lazily. “Get my clothes and take a shower.”
Why in my bedroom?” Maeve did not understand. She watched him walk to the front of the wardrobe and open the drawer below to take out his clothes.
The wardrobe in the master bedroom was built in the wall, able to hold a lot of things. When Maeve returned she did not bring much luggage. Half of the wardrobe was not filled, so she naturally would not open the drawer below.
Shamelessly, this man had given this apartment to her but still treated it as his home.
Maeve gritted her teeth. “Mr. Mcdaniel, you gave me this apartment four years ago, right? Shouldn’t you pay me rent because you’ve been staying here after that?”
“Rent” Byron took his clothes and walked to her with a casual expression. “The company hasn’t been doing well recently. I’m afraid it won’t be easy for you to earn money unless I’m allowed to pay with my body.”
Maeve was frozen on the
spot.
This man was never ashamed and had no bottom line.
Previously, the Mcdaniel Group’s senior management had undergone a huge change. Most of the power had been transferred to him. After that, the Mcdaniel Group successfully advanced the launch of the new energy project and reached another level. The value of the company was no longer the same as before.
News of these things was on the Internet every day. As people who didn’t pay attention to business, she still heard about it. But now, in order not to give her rent, he even said such nonsense about his company not managing well.
“Mr. Mcdaniel, do you think it’s appropriate for a person with billions of dollars to pretend to be poor just to avoid such a little bit of money?” Maeve gritted her teeth. “At most, I’ll give you a 10% discount on account that we were once married.”
Byron looked at her with dark eyes. “Ms. Reese, you might have some misunderstanding about me. I’ve always been a thrifty person. I won’t spend a single cent that I shouldn’t spend.”
Are you thrifty? That’s ridiculous! Maeve was about to laugh. “How could a man who spends money like water to buy a bunch of smart machines just to do housework have the check to say that he’s thrifty?”
Even the cufflinks on his suit were specially customized. Every time he changed a suit, the cufflinks that were

would also be changed. He never used them a second time. And his was what a thrifty man would be like!
She almost didn’t recognize that word of virtue.

Byron raised his eyebrows slightly and his eyes were filled with miles. “Ms. Reese, why do you still remember what happened four years ago so clearly?”
“My memory has always been very good. I can even remember the shape of a weed I saw by the roadside” Maeve pretended to be impatient. “Hurry up and pay the rent. Why are you always taking advantage of me?”
Byron was calm. “I just said that I will only accept one method of repayment. Think about it carefully. If you’ve decided, you’re welcome to come to me anytime to get your payment. At this point, his thin eyelids lifted, and his gaze was
flirtatious.
Maeve’s body immediately trembled, and her curly eyelashes fluttered. After staring at him for a long time, she actually had the illusion that she would be devoured by his deep eyes.
She felt that the payment he was talking about did not mean what she expected. Maeve’s cheeks were shockingly hot. She bit her lip in frustration.
Four years ago, she had suffered a loss because of this. Why did she seem to repeat her mistakes now?
And he was about to get married. How could he have the cheek to say such words to her to seduce her?
At the thought of Lynn, Maeve suddenly felt a strong sense of fatigue. “Byron, have you forgotten that you’re about to marry Miss Anderson? Maeve looked up at him. “Since you’re about to get married, can you please stop this and leave me alone? This is unfair to her, also disrespectful to me.”
They had divorced a long time ago and the cruel truth was right there. But sometimes, his attitude gave her the illusion that they had never divorced.
Byron frowned slightly. Looking at her serious expression, he explained in a low voice, “She and I are not what you There won’t be a wedding.”
Maeve was stunned for a moment before she felt like laughing. Are you kidding me? You can’t fool around me:
think
“It has nothing to do with me.” Maeve turned her head away indifferently. “It’s your business who you marry, but I don’t like you pestering me when you already have a fiancée. I don’t want to be a part of your relationship. She felt bitter when finishing the last sentence.
Byron’s eyes darkened. “Maeve, you don’t believe me?”
Maeve did not answer, but the answer was obvious.
Byron did not say anything else. He turned around and walked out of her bedroom.
Maeve bit her lower lip. Her tense shoulders suddenly relaxed, and the shadow completely enveloped her
After taking a shower and waiting for the lights in the living room to go out, Maeve quietly slipped into the kids’ room
The two little ones were already asleep. Their heads were leaning against each other, and their small hands were still holding lightly. The two sleeping faces were so quiet and cute.
Theo’s posture was wilder, and his body was sprawling on the bed. His chubby legs were resting on his brother’s stomach, and his small mouth would smack from time to time. Perhaps he had a good dream of eating snacks, he was almost nibbling on his brother’s car.
Will was much more reserved like a soldier, not affected by his naughty brother at all, and slept very soundly.

Looking at them like this, Maeve felt both soft and magical.
If she was right, the Theo she had spent time with before should be Will. The amazing thing about twins was that they were the closest and most similar existences in this world, yet they were different in every way.
That was why she ignored the weir
