Chapter 331 

Chapter 531 

The words “breakup gift” were like a heavy thunderbolt that struck Maeve’s heart until it went numb. Her mood, which had been cured by the beautiful scenery along the way, instantly fell to rock bottom. 

Yet, on her birthday, he had given her such a gift. 

How ironic. 

“Should I thank you for remembering my birthday, or should I praise you for being generous, Mr. Mcdaniel? The breakup fee is actually a manor?” Maeve’s eyes were filled with mockery. 

“It’s this island.” Byron’s expression was indifferent. His long and narrow black eyes contained a hint of darkness. His tone was so light that it made people angry. “I’ve never mistreated the women who was supported by me.” 

Embarrassment appeared on Maeve’s pretty face. “Do you have to disgust me today?” 

What did he mean by supporting her? 

These two words had turned their relationship into a sex transaction. 

‘What kind of person does he take me for?‘ Maeve thought. 

“Speaking of disgusting others, who knows this better than you, Ms. Reese?” Byron asked. 

Maeve was confused. “When have I ever disgusted you?” 

Byron did not answer her. He looked up at the sky and said coldly, “Follow me.” 

“I don’t want to.” Maeve didn’t want to stay here for a second longer. Her resistance to him was written all over her face. “Send me back. I don’t want to stay here.” 

“You can try to go back by yourself.” He lowered his voice. “For example, swim back.” 

Maeve was silent for a second. “Did you just say you’re giving this place to me?” 

“Yeah.” 

– 

“Then this is my territory now. You should be the one leaving,” Maeve demanded confidently. 

Byron stared at her with his dark eyes and suddenly smiled ambiguously. “We haven’t signed the contract yet. Are you sure you want to continue discussing this with me?” 

Hearing the threat in his tone, Maeve straightened her neck and said, “I’ll leave.” 

“Lead the way,” Byron said. 

Her aura collapsed. 

Byron clicked his tongue and turned around, walking forward. 

Maeve pursed her lips. She really wanted to turn around and leave without looking back. 

However, this place was surrounded by the sea. She couldn’t leave even if she wanted to. She was really set up by him. 

Chapter 581 

A moment later, a hot air balloon slowly rose from the grass. The appearance of the panda’s head coupled with the smiling expression on its face made it look a little annoying. 

Maeve followed Byron up here in a daze. She had no idea what he was trying to do.. 

Could this also be part of the “breakup gift“? 

“I didn’t expect you to be so ceremonial, Mr. Mcdaniel. You ever have to break up on a hot air balloon.” Maeve stood on the side closest to Byron while holding onto the railing. She laughed mockingly. 

Byron stood by the side with his arms crossed. When he heard this, he did not even look up. “Ms. Reese, haven’t you heard of the saying that something that can be solved with money is the least valuable?” 

‘Is he mocking me worthless?‘ Maeve rolled her eyes and leaned against the railing to look down. 

The hot air balloon floated above the sea and was pulled by the control rope at the highest point. It stopped in the air and stopped rising. 

In front of them was the vast sea and the natural scenery on the island. 

At this moment, a whale with a dark gray back floated to the surface to take a breather. The water pillar it spewed out reflected a rainbow halo under the sunlight. 

After spraying the water, the whale turned around and slowly sank into the sea. Its tail fin slapped the surface of the sea, creating layers of waves. 

Not long after, a few black and white killer whales chased after a shark and swam over. They jumped up and down like wild A killer whale posed and suddenly slapped the shark, kicking it around like a ball. 

They also knocked over a lot of innocent little seafood along the way. 

Maeve could not help but laugh out loud. 

She had heard before that killer whales were gangsters in the ocean. They were especially uneducated. When she saw it, she almost died of laughter. She wanted to take a photo of it with her phone, but she remembered that it was not with her. 

This was the first time she had seen such magnificent scenery up close. Moreover, the hot air balloon was not too far from the sea, so her senses were even more stimulated. 

In the end, she couldn’t capture all of them. 

Maeve secretly glared at Byron, but she was caught off guard and met his dark and deep eyes. 

He was looking at her. 

And he kept looking at her. 

The hunter looked at the prey that was about to fall into the trap with the same determined gaze. 

Maeve had this inexplicable realization in her heart. The power of her glare kept decreasing, and she even forgot to borrow his phone. 

A faint cedar fragrance mixed with the sea breeze and humidity suddenly approached. Before Maeve could react, his sides were supported by Byron’s arms. 

She was wrapped between his arms, and the top of her head seemed to be brushed by his warm breath. She subconsciously retreated, and her back pressed heavily against the edge of the hot air balloon’s railing, hurting her.
