Chapter 398
There was a long silence. It was so long that Maeve thought that Byron still did not want to tell her and felt disappointed.
Byron answered her in a low voice, “I’ll be fine. It’s just that it takes time and is very troublesome.”
The huge rock in Maeve’s heart was removed, but she was still a little doubtful. “Really?”
“You don’t believe me?”
“Not really. It’s just that your eye injury has always been bad, and now it seems to have worsened. I’m a little worried.”
Byron chuckled softly. “What’s there to worry about? If things don’t get better in the future, it’s not too late for you to worry.”
Hearing his words, Maeve puffed up her cheeks. “If you can’t see, not only am I not worried, but I should also be happy.”
Byron raised his eyebrows. “Huh?”
“In the future, if I want to go to a bar, I can go to a bar. If I want to dance with a handsome man, no one can control me. I don’t have to worry about being discovered by you. Just thinking about it makes me feel good.” Maeve deliberately angered him. “Anyway, even if I peek at other men behind your back, you won’t be able to see it…”
Before she could finish her sentence, Byron suddenly moved. He lowered his upper body, pinched her cheek, and kissed her aggressively.
At first, he couldn’t find the right spot, and his hot lips landed heavily on her cheek.
But soon her chattering little mouth was silenced, and she only had time to let out a protesting whimper.
Maeve regretted it endlessly. ‘Wasn’t the night before last enough to teach me a lesson? Some perverts, even when they can’t see with their eyes, are not to be provoked!
She didn’t get the upper hand in words and was even forced to ‘cede territory and pay reparations‘.
Byron hugged her from behind, his chin pressed against her slightly fragrant neck. His expression looked very relaxed, and the scene could not be more heartwarming… –if one ignored his hand that had reached into Maeve’s clothes.
Maeve wriggled backward uncomfortably. The more she wriggled, the more uncomfortable she felt. She wanted to cry but couldn’t. “I won’t say it again next time. Could you please take your hand away?”
“No.” Byron’s voice was low and deep. He was doing the most erotic thing with a serious expression. Even his tone did not change. “You can watch or dance with handsome men. Anyway, I won’t know. What are you afraid of?”
Maeve immediately shook her head and denied it. “I was just joking with you! Other men are not as handsome, gentle, and considerate as you! It’s enough that I have you. How can I still see those ordinary people!”
Byron raised his eyebrows slightly and asked with a faint smile, “You’re not going to look at them anymore?”
“I’m not watching them anymore, never!”
Maeve was really afraid of him.
She hadn’t seen it yet. She was just saying it!
She shouldn’t have been soft–hearted and stayed behind to accompany him tonight!
She was simply jumping into the wolf’s mouth!

Maeve whimpered. It sounded like she was about to cry.
Byron sighed softly. “I haven’t done anything yet. Why are you so sensitive?”
‘And so easy to bully. Fortunately, you’re in my hands. Looking at Maeve, thoughts thronging Byron’s mind.
Byron spoke in a dignified manner, but he did not have the slightest intention of pulling his hand away. His gentle movements were also the most torturous.

Maeve was so uncomfortable that her face was flushed red. The hair by her cheek was messy on it, and her eyes were misty from the steam. She was softer and more vulnerable than Byron had imagined.
The area under his control was like a volcano that had ended its hibernation. It might explode at any moment.
The breathing in the ward became more rapid and ambiguous, accompanied by subtle restrained moans.
For some reason, the humidifier on the table suddenly stopped working. After a few seconds of silence, fine and long white fog spewed out again.
Maeve leaned against Byron softly. Her eyes were closed and cheeks were as red as begonia. Her red lips were open and her breathing was a little unstable.
Her mind was filled with the scene she had unintentionally seen under her collar.
She closed her eyes and did not want to face this fact, but Byron, the culprit, was obviously unwilling to let her off. As he tidied her shirt, he said slowly,
“It feels good. Thank you for your hospitality.”
Maeve was so embarrassed and angry that she wanted to kick him. However, she did not have much strength in her body now, so she bit his arm hard.
“Byron, you bastard!” Maeve scolded him indistinctly. “If you do this again, I won’t come tomorrow!”
Byron calmly let her bite him. “I’ll be discharged the day after tomorrow.”
Maeve was rendered speechless.
“What’s more, you provoked me first. Now that I can’t perform it, what’s wrong with me collecting some interest?”
Maeve couldn’t help but say, “Do the others know how shameless you are?”
“They’re not my girlfriends. There’s no need to know.”
Maeve didn’t know what to say. ‘OK, you win!
The next morning.
Maeve received a call from the principal of Islaton Private International Kindergarten asking her to sign the contract. The results of the re–selection were out.
The parents who had been bribed by Faye had already withdrawn from the competition. The rest were all reality and justice.
The others had originally thought that after removing the design of Faye, they could let the second place take over.
After the principal took out the school uniform designed by Maeve, the others had nothing
and agreed to vote again.

In the end, the design of Maeve won by a landslide.

After signing the contract, Maeve received the 100 thousand dollars prize money that the two little ones had been longing
for.
Just as she was about to leave, the principal stopped her again and told her that the schools would jointly hold a children’s Star Singing Competition next week. She suggested that Maeve’s children sign up for it.
Maeve thought she had heard wrongly. “Are you sure you’re talking about Theodore?”
The principal said firmly, “The teacher thinks that Theodore’s singing talent is quite good. He suggests nurturing his interest in this aspect. Perhaps he can even bring back the Champions tide for the school.”
The principal was well–versed in the art of language.
Maeve was confused. ‘Let little Theo, who can eat two bowls of rice in one meal and even ask for extra food, and sing with wild abandon as if he doesn’t recognize anyone, bring back a trophy from a singing competition??‘
Although she also felt that her son looked very cute when he sang on stage, making her heart tremble. ‘But to win an award… Maybe it would work too?‘
“I’ll communicate with him. It still depends on the child’s own wishes.” Maeve did not immediately agree to the principal’s request and maintained his attitude.
“Okay.”
*****When she returned to the studio, Maeve realized that there were a lot more customers today than a few days ago.
After asking Paige, she found out that it was because they had seen the news online.
Speaking of which, this was all thanks to Faye. In order to show off her collaboration with Islaton Private International Kindergarten, she did a lottery draw on the homepage to increase the popularity and made this matter known to everyone.
In the end, within a few days, the tables had turned.
The face–slapping came so quickly that Faye’s lucky draw had not even revealed.
She wanted to use Dreamscape to make her brand famous, but in the end, it was all for nothing. She had suffered a double
loss.
Moreover, according to Faye’s previous hype idea, Maeve’s ability was not enough to lose to her, so even Dreamscape was a low–level brand. Whoever bought it would drop in status.
On the other hand, Faye couldn’t win against Maeve no matter how hard she tried and even caused such a huge scandal. Didn’t that mean that her brand was even lower?
