    Chapter 397


    Byron''s expression darkened slightly, and even his voice was a little cold. "Stay away from her in the future and talk less to her. Don''t take anything she says to you to heart." No one had the right to scheme against his girlfriend.


    Initially, seeing that Serena had once saved Will''s life, Byron did not mind that she had psychologically hinted at Will previously to deliberately sow discord between he and Will.


    But it''s absolutely uneptable that she extended her hand to Maeve.


    Nightfall Manor did notck a psychiatrist like her.


    "Why?" Maeve did not quite understand why he would say that. "Don''t you like Dr. Malvis?"


    ''No wonder Dr. Malvis thought that Byron was already asleep. However, he was actually not asleep. He was just making up an excuse to let her leave earlier,'' Maeve thought about the just situation. Byron chuckled. "It would be a problem if I liked her. Maeve, do you have any self-awareness as my girlfriend?"


    Maeve also felt that her words just now were a little ambiguous. She touched her cheek and said, "Then why did you say that? Does Dr. Malvis make you feel bad?"


    He would not ask her to be wary of anyone for no reason unless there was a reason.N?velDrama.Org owns this text.


    "She''s no longer Doctor Will. You don''t have to call her that."


    "When did this happen?"


    "Just now."


    Maeve was too shocked to say a word.


    He could not see Maeve''s current expression, but Byron could imagine that she must be confused.


    "Forget it." Byron sighed. "It''s enough to have two smart people at home."


    If she was stupid, so be it. At most, he would keep an eye on her.


    Maeve was extremely at a loss.


    She felt that she was not one of the two smart people. ''Who are you looking down on?''


    Maeve was a little angry. "Then don''t drink the soup I made. Otherwise, you''ll be assimted by a fool like me. I''ll take it and throw it away now."


    "I haven''t had dinner."


    After two seconds of stalemate, Maeve still surrendered. She resigned himself to fate and poured the soup into a bowl for him. "I''ll get them to send dinner over now."


    "Okay." Byron''s thin lips curled up slightly. He did not say that he had lost his appetite.


    It was no wonder that Will could not move his hands or legs when he was sick. He even needed his mother to feed him food and medicine personally. When he slept, he even relied on the fact that he was a patient to ask for a bedtime story. During that period of time, Byron could only listen to Will enjoying the treatment of a crown prince. Because Maeve ignored him.


    Even if the two hospital beds were close together, she would not even peel an apple for him.


    Under the contrast of his son, Mr. McDaniel became a loner.


    But not anymore.


    After Maeve finished the call, she subconsciously looked at the table on the other side of the bed. "Where''s the photo?"


    Hearing this, Byron''s jawline tightened slightly. "I asked Archer to bring it back."


    Maeve pursed her lips. ''Does that mean he is still keeping it? What kind of feelings does he have for that first love? It doesn''t seem like love, but it also seems like he cares about it.''


    "Maeve, give me some time," Byron said again. ''Give me some more time to think about how to tell you about that unbearable past.''


    Maeve thought that he meant to give him more time to forget that woman.


    She felt relieved. Although she had never taken the initiative to ask him about his first love, it would be a lie to say that she didn''t mind.


    It was not because he had a past with his first love that she minded. It was because he still had this love in his heart. That was why she minded.


    If this thorn remained in her heart and could not be removed, she could not tell if she would be more and more disappointed in Byron. Fortunately, he did not let the thorn continue to grow.


    After having dinner, Byron was thinking about what excuse he could use to make Maeve stayter. Suddenly, he heard her asking the nurse if it was possible to get another quilt and pillow. "Are you staying here tonight?" he asked.


    "Didn''t I say just now?" Maeve took the time to answer him. "It''s too troublesome to go back and forth, and it''s a waste of time. Anyway, there''s a hospital bed here, enough for me to sleep in."


    The corners of Byron''s lips slowly curled up. Then, he pursed his lips tightly. ''She still wants to sleep in separate beds?''


    "The quilt, I''ll get it in a moment..." Before the nurse could finish her words, she was suddenly interrupted by Byron''s deep voice. "There''s been a lot of patients in the hospital recently, and there''s not enough bedding." The nurse''s heart skipped a beat when she was interrupted.


    Then, she thought of the rtionship between Maeve and Byron and immediately understood. ''He doesn''t want to sleep in separate beds from his girlfriend''


    "Yes, that''s exactly the situation recently. Ms. Reese, you see..." The nurse looked embarrassed.


    Of course, Maeve did not want to make things difficult for others. She immediately said that there was no need.


    "Then you can ring the bell anytime if you need anything. I won''t disturb you anymore." The nurse quickly slipped away, afraid that she would be a third wheel if she was slow.


    Maeve was a bit frustrated. "The service in the VIP ward you''re staying in this time has dropped drastically. There aren''t even any extra quilts or such things."


    "Yes, so I''ll allow you to sleep in the same bed with me tonight."


    Maeve was rooted to the spot.


    Although she was depressed, Maeve still took off her shoes and climbed onto his bed. The bed was so warm that it was a little hot, making her cold hands and feet feel warm.


    "Byron, your body is so hot!" Maeve poked his waist. "Compared to you, I''m like an ice cube."


    Byron held her restless little hand andy down on her side to pull her into his arms. He rested his chin on the top of her furry head.


    "Why do your hands and feet feel cold every time you have your period? Haven''t you asked a doctor to treat you?"


    He did not mention Jaylen in case she thought of this person again.


    "Of course, but at most, I won''t feel abdominal pain or sore legs when I''m on my period. My cold hands and feet are rted to my physique. The medicine will only work for a while, and I''ll suffer," Maeve muttered. "This is fine too. If it''s cold, I''ll use you to warm my hands."


    She stuffed her hands into his arms openly and smiled. "Warm me up."


    Byron chuckled. Not only did he warm her hands, but he also pressed her slender legs down and freed one hand to rub her stomach.


    "Maeve, have you been cking off recently? The flesh on your stomach has gone soft."


    "I''m not! I do yoga every night!" Maeve was so angry that she wanted to bite someone. "And this is not even a third of Theo''s belly!" Although her abdomen was t, it was still a little meaty.


    Hence, she could not bear to hear him mention this.


    Byron''s long fingers gently wrapped around the soft flesh. Heughed teasingly. "Don''t lose weight. It doesn''t feel any worse than his."


    ''Bastard!'' Maeve groaned under his massage. It was sofortable that she felt sleepy after a while.


    She forced herself not to sleep and rested her cheek on his chest. In the end, she asked the question she had been wanting to ask since she entered the ward. "Byron, will your eyes still be fine?"


    Before he could answer, she added seriously, "I want to hear the truth. For better or worse, I want to know. And I should know."


    With their rtionship, he should not hide it from her no matter what.
