Maeve looked up at Byron''s cold face on the screen. Ilis long and narrow eyes, which hadpletely recovered, were filled with a sharp cold light, making it impossible to look straight at in.


    As he sat there, the sofa beneath him seemed to have be a hrone filled with


    And he was the only king on the throne.


    Looking at Byron, Maeve felt like a lifetime had passed.


    gems and majesty.


    The interview was alreadying to an end. The host boldly asked a different question. "Mr. Mcdaniel is so good at working. You led the Mcdaniel Group to a steady rise, leaving many people in the dust. This makes me a little curious. What are your requirements for your future wife?"


    Byron folded his hands in front of him in a rxed posture. When he heard this, he raised his eyelids slightly and replied casually, "There are no requests, and it''s not my turn to make requests of her."


    The unexpected answer surprised the host.


    There was amotion in the banquet hall.


    Maeve''s throat tightened. For some reason, her heart suddenly beat a little faster.


    "From your answer, Mr. Mcdaniel seems to have a woman you like? May I take the liberty to ask which lucky girl it is." The host was very careful, not daring to hope that this big shot would really answer. However, Byron really answered.


    "She''s my fiancée. Her name is Maeve Reese." A faint smile appeared on Byron''s handsome face that had been cold for the entire night. He added, "I''m the lucky one."


    The host was shocked. ''Wasn''t that the most wanted person recently...? Wasn''t he the boss of Dreamscape Studio?''


    Even he, who was in the financial channel, had heard about it.


    ''If she was Mr. Mcdaniel''s fiancée... who would care whose daughter she was!''


    "It seems that Mr. Mcdaniel and your fiancée have a very good rtionship. I sincerely wish the two of you a happy and blissful life together." The host stopped while he was ahead and ended the interview as usual. "Lastly, I want to ask Mr. Mcdaniel, why did you ept our interview?"


    Byron''s thin lips twitched slightly. "My fiancée ran out to attend someone''s banquet and left me at home. I''m bored."


    The host was very shocked. ''However, even if it was true, could you not say it so directly? You, a big shot with a worth of billions of dors,ined on the show that your fiancée wasn''t at home to apany you. It seemed... quite worthless! After the interview ended, the screen went ck.


    The banquet hall was so quiet that it was a little scary. The others no longer looked at Maeve with suspicion and ridicule. Instead, they became embarrassed and afraid.


    If the title of Byron''s fiancée was feared by everyone...


    Then, the importance and love he showed for Maeve in the interview was terrifying.


    This meant that Byron was not just ying. He really cared about her.

    If they had known that she was Mr. Mcdaniel''s fiancée, they would not have suspected her of stealing even if they were given eight hundred guts. Well, now they''d already offended Maeve.


    The owner of the ne, who had pointed at Macve and scolded her, looked embarrassed. She wanted to run away without caring about the losses.


    At this moment, the woman in the gold gown standing at the side suddenly tilted her body and fell to the floor.


    The bag in her hand fell to the ground, and the cosmetics inside fell out along with a shiny diamond ne.


    Seeing this scene, the owner and the woman in golden gown''s expressions changed at the same time.


    "You stole my diamond ne! How dare you nder Ms. Reese? Shameless!" The owner was furious. If it weren''t this woman, she wouldn''t have offended Maeve!


    The woman''s face flush red. "It wasn''t me! I didn''t steal anything from you! She must have thrown the ne into my bag when no one was looking!"


    Seeing that she was still ndering Maeve, the others said one after another, "Ms. Reese was standing there just now and didn''t move at all. There has to be a limit to your nder."


    "I really can''t stand it anymore. A thief shouting thief, let''s call the police!"


    "No! You can''t call the police! I didn''t steal it. What right do you have to say that about me?!" The woman in the gold gown was so angry that she stomped her feet. She didn''t understand how things had turned out like this. The person whose reputation was ruined here should be Maeve


    Maeve watched all of this coldly. The scene from the interview just now was still ying in her mind, and her heart was in a mess. ''Didn''t he agree to break up with me? Why did he say in the interview that I was his fiancée? And hisst sentence, it was as if... as if he knew something had happened to me and was deliberately helping me out.


    Maeve ignored the others'' deliberate ttery and left the banquet hall.


    When she reached the courtyard, she suddenly stopped and turned to look at the empty path behind her. She frowned and said, "Come out. Why are you following me?"


    Ever since she was plotted against and kidnapped, she had been especially cautious. She did not expect to still be targeted.


    The woman who had been hiding in the dark came out. She lowered her head with a respectful expression and said, "Ms. Reese, I''m a personal bodyguard sent by Mr. Mcdaniel to protect you. I mean no harm."


    Maeve did not let down her guard. "I remember that Byron arranged for a male bodyguard to protect me.


    "Yes, but he failed to protect you thest time and caused you to be kidnapped. He has already be punished." This was awkward.


    Maeve touched the tip of her nose. She thought of something and asked her, "Have you been following me tonight?" "Yes, it is."Copyright by N?v/elDrama.Org.


    "That diamond ne..."


    "When you were washing your hands, I saw someone putting the diamond ne in your bag. Lthought that this might


    cause damage to your reputation, so I returned the ne, the female bodyguard said truthfully. "Mr. Medaniel asked me to do this." Macve was stunned. She knew it. How could there be such a coincidence?


    Coincidentally, the television was switched on and Byron''s interview program was ying.


    What happened after that was even more coincidental.


    He was on the show, but he could still divert his energy to help her resolve the matters here.


    Maeve''s emotions gradually becameplicated. She could not understand what he was trying to do. Didn''t they break up by default?


    Hearing the phone ring. Maeve temporarily suppressed these thoughts and took out her phone. "Hello?"


    "Ms. Reese, I''m really sorry. My father''s old illness suddenly acted up and his condition isn''t very good. I was busy taking care of my father and didn''t notice what happened in the banquet hall. I feel extremely ashamed that you were treated unfairly," Arthur said apologetically over the phone.


    "It''s not your problem. Please don''t say that. Is Mr. Richard okay?"


    "He has already taken the medicine and fallen asleep. Thank you for your concern. I''ll pass it on to him."


    "That''s good." Maeve nodded. "Thank you for inviting me to tonight''s banquet. I''ll go back first."


    Arthur immediately said, "I''ll send you back. Take it as an apology for my poor hospitality tonight. Please give me this opportunity."
