"Mommy, Will used to quietly remove and reinstall Stinky Daddy's Desert Eagle without getting caught," Theo leaned over and muttered to Maeve, "Mommy, don't worry. Let Will do it. He's super capable. There will definitely be a surprise."

Will had never thought that he was good, but when Theo praised him, his face immediately turned red.

"It's not as good as Theo says. I just like to do some small crafts."

Maeve went silent.

'Baby, you call removing the Desert Eagle and reassembling it a craft? You and Theo, who took an air cannonball from Loran and used it as a toy, are truly brothers. You're the same tough.

However, it was not a bad thing for kids to be inquisitive.

Maeve took off the blue diamond platinum bracelet that matched the necklace and placed it in Will's hand.

"I only have one request. Defense should be easy and beautiful."

Girls always prioritized their looks.

Will's heart softened as he felt the complete trust Maeve conveyed to him. "Okay, Mom."

Theo held his chin and pondered. 'I can not be inferior to Will. I should think about what to give Mommy..."

After the two little ones went to school, Maeve washed up and went out. The breakfast on the table was still hot.

From the style, it was obvious that it was made by Byron.

Maeve stood there in a daze. Some scenes from last night surfaced in her mind.

Last night, she had used her drunkenness to tell him that she still had a child hidden. But his reaction at that time...

It was very repulsive.

He didn't even want to hear more from her.

Maeve curled her fingers and a deep sense of disappointment appeared in her eyes.

'Have I taken it for granted? Seeing that he likes Will very much, I thinks that he will definitely like Theo too. Fortunately, I did not tell him that Theo is the child. Otherwise, with Theo's current acceptance of Byron, if Theo knows that Byron did not like him, he would definitely be very sad! Maeve rubbed her temples that were faintly hurting. She recalled Byron's words last night, "Let's not see each other for the time being." She felt as if she had overlooked something, but she could not figure it out.

In the afternoon, after her fever was gone, Maeve went to the studio.

Something came

up

and he sent his secretary over to sign the contract with her.

The terms of the contract were very friendly to Dreamscape.

They were so friendly that Dreamscape's new collection, which was expected to launch next month, was even able to be displayed in all of Trazir's stores.

The designers of the studio were so excited that it was like they was on steroids. It could be seen how great an honor it was. Maeve was not feeling well. All her strength was gone after she signed the contract, and she didn't recover for a long time. Besides, she felt like she was running a fever again.

She took her temperature and it was 101°F.

Maeve leaned against the small sofa in the office to rest. She had a meeting later. She could not go to the meeting so listlessly.

After an unknown period of time, Maeve felt something on her body in her sleep and instantly opened her eyes.

A tall and thin man stood in front of her. He was wearing a mask and his glass-like honey-brown eyes were shining.

"Tom?" Maeve sat up sleepily. The thin blanket on her body slid down to her lap. "When did you come? How's your face recovering?"

"It's all thanks to you and your kid. I'm much better than before. I'll be able to recover in a while," Tom said softly. His eyes were no longer as dead as before.

It was as if a ray of light that could not be ignored had seeped into the dark and damp cliff.

However, in Tom's eyes, Maeve was the light.

Maeve was hesitating if she should let him take off his mask to take a look. He already understood what she meant and took the initiative to take off his mask.

Seeing him like this, Maeve was relieved but also a little disappointed.

There was no need for Theo to perform acupuncture on his face now. He just needed to apply the medicine on time and adjust it internally.

He would probably return to Estan soon.

After his sister voluntarily withdrew from the line of succession, he became the only successor.

She thought he wouldn't stay in a foreign country for too long.

'Where can I find such a suitable bodyguard in the future?'

At this moment, Maeve heard Tom ask, "I'll be back to work tomorrow."

""What?"Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

"It doesn't matter even if the wound on my face is exposed now, so I can come back to work."

"Huh?"

Maeve looked at him in confusion. "You still want to continue working here?"

"You're the heir of a country, dude. Is my small studio actually so attractive?'

Tom nodded without any hesitation.

"Tom, your family has always wanted you to go back. They are all very worried about you," Maeve thought for a moment and said, "Moreover, your face will recover soon. The things you were worried about in the past are no longer a problem." Tom's eyes revealed a hint of surprise. "So you know that I didn't lose my memory."

"Yes, I figured it out."

"I didn't mean to lie to you before. It's just that before I met you and Theo, I had always wanted to die and didn't care much about anything." Tom said apologetically.

Maeve waved her hand. "It's fine. I didn't take it to heart. Besides, we weren't very familiar at that time. You were right to be wary."

If he said that he was the heir of a country right away, she would have to wonder if there was something wrong with his

brain.

After saying that, Maeve hesitated. "You really don't plan to go back?"

"I'm quite happy to be your bodyguard. I'm also very free." Tom laughed heartily. "I'm enjoying it very much. I don't plan to go back for the time being." Maeve had mixed feelings.

Of course, she was happy that such an outstanding bodyguard was staying.

However, if the Nolan couple heard this, they would probably cry.

After the meeting, Maeve felt her body temperature rise and fall. It was as if she was on a roller coaster, making her mentally and physically exhausted.

She did not know if it was the effect of her fever from the last time she was drenched in the rain, but her physique was now very fragile.

After work, she drove to the First Hospital.

Jaylen had not been discharged yet. In order to prevent him from entering the laboratory again, Maeve and Daryl did not approve of his discharge. Jaylen frowned when he saw her.

"Why do you look so pale? Are you sick?"

"It's a little fever. It subsided just now." Maeve's voice was a little hoarse. "Maybe it's because I drank wine last night and caught a cold. I'll be fine after resting for two days. It's fine. How are you today? Are you still coughing blood?" Jaylen did not answer her question and grabbed her wrist.

"Have you never looked in the mirror today? Your face is so pale that you look like you're going to faint in the next second. How can you say that you're fine?"

Maeve felt a little helpless. 'Is it that serious?'

After a while, Jaylen's expression turned solemn inch by inch. He subconsciously tightened his grip on Maeve.

"Have you been exposed to the X-virus source recently?"
