The Heir's Secret Bride (Maeve and Byron) novel Chapter 577

Chapter 577 

Maeve was still taken away. However, she was not forced to do si She did it willingly 

The person who had ordered her to be arrested had a powerful background. Moreover, he was a deputy commander. It was impossible for him to have gone through so much trouble without achieving anything. 

Since Mike dared to arrest her, it meant that he was fully prepared. 

Linked to accusations of espionage, Maeve understood the gravity of the situation. She knew she couldn’t just let them tarnish her reputation. Cooperating with the investigation was the best option available to her at the moment. 

She was innocent and not afraid of this. Moreover, she did not want to cause trouble for the Soar family. 

Less than half a minute after Maeve was taken away, Gale received the news and rushed over, but he was a step late. 

The paper repost in his hand crumpled into a ball, and his entire body emitted a cold and terrifying aura. The atmosphere in the entire hall directly froze. 

“What’s wrong with you? You can’t even protect your sister?” Gales sharp eyes swept over Zephyr and his tone was stern. 

Not everyone could stop the deputy commander’s transfer order 

Zephyr lowered his eyes slightly but did not absolve himself of his responsibility. “I’m sorry, Father.” As he spoke, his throat tightened. “Are the results out? Is Maeve really your daughter?” 

“The results show that she has nothing to do with me.” Gale was expressionless. 

Zephyr was puzzled. “What?” 

Gale sneered. He casually tore the report in half and threw it into the trash can. “First, the database was attacked to lure me 

Don’t you 

understand?” away. Then, Mike’s men took Maeve away. 

Zephyr’s expression froze. “Does someone not want you to acknowledge Maeve?” 

“The reason why the other party is in such a hurry is most likely because there’s indeed something wrong with Maeve’s identity.” A sharp glint flashed across Gale’s cold and sharp eyes. The more they hide it, the more obvious their motive is.” 

Maeve was most likely his biological daughter. He wanted to see who dared to attack his daughter again and again under his 

nose. 

Gale took out the white gloves that he had not used for a long time from the pocket of his coat and slowly put them on. His tone was low as he gave an order viciously, “Milo, bring me my gun. It’s time for it to meet hits old friends.” 

In a small courtyard in the military compound, When Gale arrived with his men, Mike was already waiting in the living room. He had even prepared high–grade coffee beans to entertain them. 

“Gale, long time no see,” Mike said with a smile. “I’ve prepared your favorite coffee beans. How about you drink a cup to cool down and put away the gun on my head?” 

Gale said coldly, “I’m not here to drink coffee with you. Where is Maeve?” 

15:41 Wed, Jan 15, G 

Chapter 372 

Don’t worry, she’s fine. It’s just that the servant accidentally splashed coffee on her just now. My wife brought her upstairs to change her clothes,” Mike explained. 

That better be the case. If she loses even a strand of hair, I’ll shoot you right now.” A hint of ruthlessness flashed across Gale’s cold eyes. 

The soldiers in the living room were already used to it, but they could not help but break out in cold sweat. ‘Mike is the deputy commander… 

Mike laughed out loud. “Your temper hasn’t changed at all from before. I really miss it.” 

Gale put the gun in his hand on the table and took off his white gloves. “Did you lure me here to say such meaningless nonsense?” 

“How could it be otherwise? I certainly have urgent matters to discuss with you, which is why I had no choice but to take a roundabout approach,” Mike lamented. “I just didn’t expect that now, to see you, I’d first have to bait a hook.” 

Seeing Gale’s expressionless face, Mike felt compelled to speak frankly, “The current situation is tense. Ever since you were relegated to a minor position, the troubles at sea have only increased. The border has been increasingly unstable, far from the calm during your tenure. Gale, we all need your help.” 

Gale picked up the coffee cup and drank half of it. It was purely to quench his thirst, and his movements were quite bold and unruly. 

After drinking it, he hit the nail on the head. “These are not reasons for you to use espionage to capture an innocent girl here as a hostage. Mike, we’ve known each other for so long, let’s skip the useless pleasantries. Otherwise, it really hurts the feelings.” 

Mike was silent for a moment. “Gale, things aren’t like before. Only with you in charge can we alleviate the concerns from the higher–ups. That position is always been reserved for you.” 

Gale did not speak. He held his white gloves in one hand and leaned against the wheelchair, thinking about something. 

At this moment, Maeve, who had just changed his clothes, followed Sandra downstairs. 

Upon seeing her, Gale’s expression softened significantly. He raised his hand at her and said, “Come here.” 

Maeve was stunned and walked behind him. 

Mike smiled and said to Maeve, “Ms. Reese, I had no choice but to scare you today. When we have time another day, we will officially invite you over as a guest. Treat it as an apology.” 

“There’s no need for that,” Maeve rejected without even thinking about it. “Such a grand display, all this fuss about a visit, I really can’t muster the interest to do it a second time.” 

The smile on Mike’s face immediately shifted to Gale’s face. Maeve did not show Mike any respect. Not only was he not unhappy, but he was also in a good mood. 

Gale thought, “That’s my girl. There’s no need to mince words or play nice with anyone. Just do what you want to do and say what you want to say. As your father, I will bear the rest of the consequences. 

“That’s right. There’s really no need to come to this place again.” After Gale spoke to Maeve, he looked at Mike. “After being in that position for so many years, I’ve long stopped caring about these worldly possessions.”
