The Heir's Secret Bride

asked. "Ms. Reese, what do you think of the revelations on the Internet?"

Another asked, "Have you always known that Mr. Mcdaniel's fiancée, Lynn Anderson, is a man? Or is there

something between the two of you that makes you act so intimately? Do you know why Lynn is cross-dressed as

a woman? Does he have a transvestite fetish or does he have any special thoughts about Mr. Mcdaniel?"

Someone else asked, "Ms. Reese, as Mr. Mcdaniel's ex-wife, you should know sinside information about Mr.

Mcdaniel's sexual orientation, right? Please answer us..."

An overwhelming barrage of questions cat Maeve. The crowd surrounded her tightly, making it almost

impossible for her to move. It was indescribably suffocating.

At this moment, a figure who walked with a gust of wind forcefully pushed aside the reporters on both sides and

cbehind Macve to support her swaying body,

"If anyone dares to take half a step closer, you will get hit. As Tom escorted Maeve out of the crowd, he glanced

at the reporters coldly.

The others were stared at by his honey-brown eyes that emitted a biting cold black aura. For a moment, were

They felt that if they got any closer, their necks would be bitten off by this hibernating ferocious beast in the

form of a

human.

Tom did not let anyone else touch Maeve again and escorted her to the car parked by the roadside

After the car door closed, the world was finally quiet.

Maeve rubbed her stinging ears. Her mind was in a mess. Before she could figure out what the reporters meant

she thanked Tom first. "Mr. Hum, thank you so much for just now. Otherwise, | definitely wouldn't have been able

to get away myself If she was alone out there, she was worried that she might be eaten alive by those reporters.

Tom started the car and drove off. His face, which was covered by a scarf, was expressionless, but his eyes were

calm.

He said, "It's fine. It's my job to protect you.

Maeve was stunned. She thought, 'When | hired Tom, did | say that | wanted him to protect me?"

Only then did she notice that the phone in her bag had been vitating,

She took it out and saw that the screen was filled with news

Maeve suddenly had a very bad feeling. She clicked on it and almost lost her mind.

The news title read: [the Mcdaniel Group President's fiancée is a man disguised as a woman! He had lunch with

his ex-wife in an intimate manner. It's suspected that the two of them are having an affair!)

One of the accompanying photos was of Lynn feeling unwell during lunch last tand Maeve warming her

hands.

The camera angle was a little ambiguous as if there was something between them.

The second picture was Lynn's medical report. On it, it surprisingly indicated that he was a man

Maeve was speechless.

She thought, 'What the hell is this? Is it fake? How could Lynn be a man? Her feminine characteristics were so

clear... Wait

Maeve suddenly tightened her grip on her phone. She had noticed something wrong with Lynn previously, but

she did not probe further. Now, she kept thinking about it.

The prominent Adam's apple on Lynn's neck and her overly flat chest showed her true gender.

Maeve felt a sense of absurdity.

She thought, 'How is this possible? If Lynn is really a man, why would Byron marry her?

Back at the apartment, Maeve ran out of the elevator and went straight to Byron's apartment.

The door opened from the inside, and Byron, who was wearing a suit jacket, walked out.

When he saw Maeve running towards him, his gaze froze and his expression gradually beccomplicated.

He thought, 'She had been avoidingrecently

Her mind was in a mess. She subconsciously followed Byron. "lll go with you to find him."

Byron glanced at her and agreed silently.

Half an hour later, at the sanatorium.

The sunny sky was suddenly filled with dark clouds.

Maeve looked up at the sky and was about to retract her gaze when she saw the black shadow at the edge of the

top floor. She grabbed Byron's arm. Top floor!"

After saying this, she rushed to the elevator without any tto explain.

Byron frowned slightly and followed in large strides,

It was very windy on the top floor. The light was dim and gloomy, giving people a feeling of oppression from the

inside out

There was a person sitting by the fence. He was wearing a white hospital gown, making his face look as pale as

paper. His body was swaying in the wind, as if he would fall out in the next second. "Lynn, don't do anything

rash!" The familiar voice brought Leon back to his senses.

He turned around slowly and saw Maeve running towards him anxiously. She was afraid that it would agitate him,

so she stopped a few feet away.

Byron and a group of doctors and nurses followed.

"I'm not Lynn." Leon looked at Maeve blankly. "Lynn died a long tago. She died trying to savewhen she

was Il years old. She died right in front of me.

"Tell me, why wasn't | the one who died back then? Why was it a despicable and cowardly person likewho

survived? Lynn must be very regretful that she had savedback then.

His pupils dilated to the extreme, as if a dying person had seen a terrifying scene. At the stime, he was

uneasy and filled with self-disgust.

Maeve saw that his hand holding the fence was trembling, and blood was dripping from his palm.

For a moment, she seemed to understand his pain and struggle.

The one who said those words is the one who is truly weak" Maeve suddenly said.

Byron turned his head to look at her, his dark eyes thoughtful.

Maeve said calmly. "You two are twins. You are supposed to be the ones who know each other the most. Your

sister risked her life to let you live. Is it so that you can speculate and suspect that she's a petty person? Do you

think your sister's sacrifice is nothing but a chance for you to be so obnoxious?"

Leon's expression instantly beceven more fragile than before. "No, L..."

""Letask you

do you

love your sister?" Maeve raised her voice

"Of course!" Leon didn't hesitate. "I wish | could trade my life for hers! We are the only family in this world""

Then what are you doing now?" Maeve asked sharply, "Are you going to jump down from here and trample on

your sister's good intentions? Are you letting her down by doing that?"

Leon opened his mouth but was speechless.

Maeve softened her voice. "Touch your heart and ask yourself, ifyour sister is still around, does she want you to

suffer so much with this world, or does she want you to live a good life so that she did not die in vain?" SEND
