The Heir's Secret Bride (Maeve and Byron) novel Chapter 412

Chapter 412 

It could be seen that Alexis did not look down on her because of her background. Maeve’s eyes felt a little sour for no reason. 

It would be a lie to say that she wasn’t sad at all when she heard those people gossiping about her at the banquet and when she was the first one to be suspected of stealing the lost item. 

She could not show it. Otherwise, those people would seize her weakness and attack her even more. 

However, Maeve never expected that Alexis, who used to have the greatest opinion of her, would actually stand on her side. 

“Thank you,” Maeve said softly. 

“Don’t worry too much. Gilbert is sensible and loves you so much. He won’t have any opinions about you just because of your background,” Alexis comforted her. “However, Jason might bring up Laurel’s last wish. This is something that can’t be changed, so you might have to suffer for a while.” 

Alexis meant that engagement was fine, but marriage might be a little difficult. 

Maeve understood what she meant. “We’re not in a hurry to get married. It’s too early to talk about this 

“That’s true. I can’t interfere too much with your discussion,” Alexis sighed. 

She only hoped that her son and Maeve would be fine. This way, she could make up for the damage and debt she had caused him in the past. 

Maeve chatted with Alexis for a while. When he saw that Byron did not come downstairs for a long time, she could not help but go up to look for him. 

‘Don’t get beaten up… 

When she went over, the servant happened to come out after delivering water. Thinking that she was going in, the servant did not close the door tightly. 

Maeve walked to the door and was hesitating whether to knock and enter when she heard Byron’s low and indifferent voice coming from inside. 

“This is all temporary. It won’t be long before I break off this relationship with her, so you don’t have to worry.” 

“Have you thought about it? Have you discussed it with Maeve?” 

“I’ve made up my mind.” 

Gilbert nodded. “Maeve’s situation is different from before. She’s at a disadvantage. I’m relieved that you think that way.” 

All the color drained from Maeve’s face, which suddenly turned deathly pale. Her heart seemed to clench tightly, making it almost impossible for her to catch her breath. 

She held on to the wall as she made her way downstairs. Her pace quickened, as if she were trying to escape some reality. 

In the study, Gilbert let out a long sigh. “You’ve never seen your grandmother. It doesn’t matter if you don’t abide by her last -wish. I believe she will understand you.” 

A ripple appeared on Byron’s calm and composed face. “Grandpa, I’m sorry.” 

“What’s there to be sorry about?” Gilbert waved his hand. “You and Maeve have been separated for so long. It’s not easy for you to be together again. How can I be heartless enough to break you up? On the other hand, you’re not the only one who has the final say in the matter of remarriage. You have to see what Maeve thinks.”

Gilbert’s eyes were sharp. He immediately saw the problem. “Don’t tell me you haven’t gotten Maeve’s approval?” 

“Yes, I plan to mention it to her after some time.” 

No matter what, he had to wait for the current relationship to transition smoothly before he could enter the next stage. 

Gilbert smiled. “You’re used to planning everything before you do anything, but have you forgotten that relationships can’t be planned? The two of you have to do business and measure yourselves. That’s how you live.” 

This grandson of his acts with great vigor and determination, having a tough and resolute approach. 

However, when it comes to matters of the heart, he is completely blank. He has no experience and doesn’t know how to get along with girls. 

And Maeve happens to be a delicate and sensitive person. When dealing with this overly rational grandson of his, she is bound to be at a disadvantage. 

It all depends on how they adjust to each other. 

Maeve didn’t know if she was at a disadvantage, but it was true that she was angry. 

After leaving the Mcdaniel family, she was still depressed. 

Byron noticed this and said casually, “What did Alexis tell you?” 

“Nothing much. She’s just trying to enlighten me.” Maeve looked out the window and tried to sound as calm as possible. “She told me not to care about what others think.” 

“Do 

you 

still care what others think?“. 

If the situation at the banquet was disadvantageous to her, she could retaliate without fear of offending anyone. 

Facing outsiders, her bones had never been soft. 

Maeve turned around and looked at him for a few seconds. “Depending on the situation.” 

If the people she cares about do care, she will also be affected. 

Byron looked at her thoughtfully and did not say anything. 

They walked all the way to the apartment in silence. 

Before getting out of the car, the struggle in Maeve’s heart finally came to an end. 

She let go of her palm that had been scratched by her fingertips and exhaled. “Byron, I’m very grateful that you helped me out this time and didn’t let me be humiliated in public. This relationship will do you more harm than good, so after the storm dies down, if you want to break off the engagement, I won’t have any objections. Ljust hope it won’t be long.” 

Strictly speaking, she was the beneficiary of this engagement and had no right to condemn him. 

In fact, she was already very surprised that he could stand up for her at that time. 

She shouldn’t have been greedy and wanted more. 

She did not have the right to ask for more now. 

However, in Byron’s ears, her words were no different from her wanting to annul the engagement even though they had just
