The Heir's Secret Bride

"Why couldn't I tell? Maeve was secretly sizing him up when she heard Gale answer Theo concisely, "Yes, I was injured."

The bodyguards' hearts were heavy. "This kind of privacy is so confidential that it needs to be sealed in the file. Did Mr. Soar tell them just like that? If word got out...'

"The injury seems to have lasted for a long time. Theo looked Gale's eyes. "But it's alright. It can be treated."

Before Gale could react, the three bodyguards focused their attention on Theo, deep in thought. 'Mr. Soar's leg injury and eye condition have always been issues of close concern and headache for those higher-ups.

The once iron-blooded military king, the top marksman of his unit, now, even with his vision clouded and confined to a wheelchair, remains formidable..

However, the soldiers trained by him have risen from humble beginnings to become among the elite, creating a legendary status within the military district.

If he could really be cured, the entire military district would be in an uproar."

One of the bodyguards could not help but ask, "Kid, are you serious? Can Mr. Soar's injuries really be treated?"

"Of course." Theo tilted his head. "As long as you are willing to spend money to hire me, I will definitely be able to treat him."

Maeve was embarrassed. Why is Theo charging?

Gale was a little interested. "How much do you want?"

Theo gestured with two fingers.

"200 thousand dollars?" Gale raised his eyebrows. "It's a little expensive.

Theo opened his small mouth. "Maybe I mean twenty dollars. Since we know each other, I'll give you a discount. Twenty dollars will do

"So little?" asked Gale.

"It's not little. Twenty dollars is enough to buy a dozen lollipops, five ice creams, four cakes, or even a meal of Macarly... Then clenched his fists. "You have no idea how attractive twenty dollars is!" Maeve almost wanted to laugh. Then, he heard Theo say angrily. You don't even know how many twey dollars my mommy confiscated from me. I'm not allowed to secretly buy candy!"

Will covered his face. What an idiot

The next second, Theo received a loud knock on the head.

"Do you have any complaints, Theodore? Maeve asked sinisterly

"N-No, my gentle, beautiful, and understanding mommy Theo at obediently with his knees together. It was impossible to tell that he was being coerced. "I'm just giving an example. Don't be angry Maeve said, "Don't think that I don't know that you have to eat at least two lollipops a day, right?"

"Wow, Mommy, how did you know?" asked Theo.

Maeve snorted.

Gale was amused by the lively way they interacted, his usually solemn and profound eyes softened by a gentle smile.

"Your mother is right. It's not good for teeth to eat much candly Too mach sugar will also affect your health," Gale said. "That's why I can't let you treat me."

The bodyguards immediately became dejected.

He almost forgot that if Gale was willing to treat it, this matter wuld not give the higher-ups such a headache. The key was that if Gale was unwilling, no one could force him.

Will looked at Gale and asked, "Mr. Soar, you actually don't want to be cured, right? Why?"

He was meticulous and had a pair of discerning eyes, which surprised Gale.

Gale patted Will's slightly curly shori black hair and said meaningfully. "The incompleteness in this world has its meaning I'm just following it."

Will understood. "This is the excuse that adults are best al"

Gale found it even more hilarious, Will was just like his mother

"Mr. Soar, you're good-looking when you smile. Will blinked and said honestly, "Your stern face is a little scary!

"Good-looking?" Gale sneered. "Very few people say that about me. This word was rarely used to describe him.

Will turned to look at Maeve. He thought for a moment and said "Perhaps it's because you look a little like my mother when you smile. Anyone who looks like my mother is good-looking in my eyes."

It was not a similarity in their facial features, but a resonance of charm.noveldrama

"It turns o

out that I have benefited from Maeve Gale smiled faintly.

He could determine the characteristics of the people he had seen based on their facial features and memory techniques. However, he did not have the desire to investigate what they looked like. It had nothing to do with him. He didn't want to use his good eyesight on such a boring matter

After waiting all night for Byron's call, Maeve called him when she woke up in the morning, but no

For no reason, Maeve recalled Molly's crazy message.

picked up.

She had a feeling that it had something to do with Byron's abnormality during this period of time, but she could not prove her guess.

Maeve did not like to be immersed in some bad conjectures like this. It was not beneficial to the current situation.

She simply changed her clothes and went out for a walk to chuinge her mood.

Just as she found a random restaurant and was about to sit down to reply to her work message, a scream came from the

door

The continuous gunshots in the sky poured into the restaurant like boiling water, and the scene instantly became extremely chaotic,

At first, Maeve was immersed in her work with her Bluetooth earpiece and did not notice. By the time she realized that something was wrong in the restaurant, it was already too late.

The masked robber pointed at her temple and asked her to hand over all her valuables

Maeve's heart skipped a beat, feeling that she was so unlucky. "What's going on with the resort's security system?

She was not stupid enough to resist armed robbers. She immediately placed all her valuables on the table

In the end, the robber standing behind her grabbed her and grabbed her neck. He pulled her out and said loudly to the trembling restaurant manager, "Fill up the two boxes we brought and get us a car. Once we're safely out of here, we'll release the hostage." Yes... The manager quickly did as he was told.

Something was wrong in Maeve's heart, but there was no time to think. She quietly pressed the bracelet on her wrist and took the opportunity to send a signal to Will's phone.

"Hey, what are you doing?" Somehow, the robber realized it. He grabbed Maeve's wrist and threw the gun at her forehead. "Behave yourself!"

"Ah!" Someone screamed when he saw this scene.

The cries in the restaurant became louder and louder, like a rising tide that drowned one's mouth and nose. The despair was suffocating.

At the same time, in the shooting range on the third floor opposite the restaurant, Gale came out of the elevator in a wheelchair.

When he passed by an entire set of glass floor-to-ceiling windows, the bodyguards behind him sharply saw the situation in the restaurant opposite. "Mr. Soat, there's a situation at that restaurant. There are two masked gunmen." "Mr. Soar, Ms. Reese is also there. One of the criminals is hitting her head with a gun."

Gale's expression darkened. "Are the security guards here all useless!"
