Secret Bride 393
Gale had no intention of ordering any clothes at all. He only asked the butler to contact Dreamscape to meet Maeve and settle the previous matter. He had never liked owing people favors. Hearing Maeve's too simple request, Gale could not help but be surprised. "Are you sure?"
Maeve nodded. "I'm sure."
Gale delivered a light hum.
He did not think highly of Maeve because of this, nor did he think that her request was too light compared to saving his life.
He had already given Maeve the freedom to choose what answer to fill in.
However, for some reason, Gale still added, "Also, add this manor as my thank-you gift."
As soon as he said this, Maeve heard Paige exclaim behind her and was filled with shock and envy. 'Gosh, Ms. Reese was going to be rich!'
Maeve smiled. "Your manor is very beautiful, but cleaning must be very difficult. I can't bear to hire so many people to take care of it, so I'll pass."
At that time, she had only provided him with an antidote. He had to rely on Jaylen to be saved. Therefore, she was not shameless enough to take all the advantages.
This time, even the butler looked at her differently. 'Can the value of this manor be covered by the excuse that cleaning is too troublesome? Even if she rents out the manor, she can hire hundreds of servants a year! This lady is still too young and impulsive.' Gale nodded and did not try to persuade her further. Instead, he instructed the butler, "Call Aeolian over."
The butler nodded and turned to leave.From NôvelDrama.Org.
After a while, Aeolian walked in behind the butler. When she saw that there was someone else in the room, she clearly felt uncomfortable when she saw that it was Maeve.
She quickly lowered her head and quickly walked two steps away from Gale. She asked softly, "Uncle Gale, you called for me?"
"Mm." Gale then said to Maeve, "This is my niece, Aeolian. Please order a few sets of clothes for her."
Maeve nodded slightly. "Okay."
She had also guessed that this would be the outcome, because Gale looked like a person who didn't like to get close to others.
When Aeolian heard that Gale wanted this girl to make clothes for her, she immediately felt a little relieved.
Last time, she had taken the initiative to bring Gale out to relax. In the end, she had caused him to have food poisoning in the dining room. She had been frightened for a few days. From the looks of it, the crisis had been resolved.
"Thank you, Uncle Gale. You're so good to me," said Aeolian sweetly. Then, she smiled at Maeve in a friendly manner. "Come with me."
Maeve smiled back. "Alright."

"There's a beautiful princess in the distance. She's charming and
The familiar singing stopped Maeve in her tracks.
When she turned around, her expression was one of utter shock Huh? Why does Theo's magical song appear in this place?!'
"Is there anything else?" Gale asked calmly when he saw her stop
"No..." Maeve shook her head in a daze. "It's just that this music sounds very vibrating. I'm a little attracted."
She did not notice that the butler's hands were trembling as he was adjusting the playback equipment. The corners of his mouth twitched when he heard her words. However, Gale revealed his first sincere smile since they met. "Your taste is not bad. This music does have a unique charm. I have to listen to it at least ten times a day." Maeve, Theo's biological mother, who didn't even dare to listen for the second time was speechless.
Gale continued, "This song is called Devil's Sleep. It's just like its name. The hypnotic effect is very good. I'll recommend it to you."
"Th... Thank you." Maeve seemed to have put on a mask of pain. "Then I won't disturb you from admiring it. Goodbye."
Then, in the midst of Theo's increasingly clear and magically enchanting singing that was comparable to the sound quality in a recording studio, she fled in a hurry.
It wasn't that she looked down on her kid's singing. But even if she forced herself to praise it, she just couldn't bring herself to say that his singing was pleasant to the ears.
Maeve could not help but reflect on herself. 'Could it be that I am too harsh on my child, so much so that strangers have discovered the charm in Theo's voice but I haven't? No, no, no. I can't doubt myself!
Then on reflection, 'But Mr. Soar seems to fall asleep every day while listening to Theo's terrifying... no, charming voice. If he doesn't really like it, how can he torture his ears like this?? Of course, there is another possibility. Perhaps this Mr. Soar's hearing is not good.' Aeolian noticed that Maeve lingered in the room for a while and could not help but frown.
She was already used to women taking the initiative to approach Gale when they saw him. She thought that this girl would be a little different, but she didn't expect there to be no difference.
Fortunately, Gale's eyes were not very good, so he could not see her face clearly. Otherwise, she might really have an aunt.
Maeve was in a daze the entire way. It was not until Paige measured her that she came back to her senses and asked Aeolian about the style, color, and style that she liked.
She was half a benefactor to Gale. On the surface, Aeolian also had to show her some respect and was fairly cooperative.
After recording her data, Maeve drew out the design plan for Aeolian to see.
Aeolian saw that she had drawn it casually and did not think much of it.
-After obtaining the design, she was instantly speechless.
She had grown up wearing branded clothes and had a high understanding of fashion. She was very picky and very few people's designs caught her eye. This girl was indeed quite capable.
"It's alright. That's all." Aeolian's expression was still lukewarm.
Maeve put away the design and stood up to bid farewell to her.
"Ms. Reese, Aeolian suddenly called out to her.
"What is it?" Maeve asked in confusion.
"Do you have a boyfriend?"

Hearing this question, Maeve was stunned for a moment before asking with a smile, "What does this have to do with my job?"
Aeolian frowned. "No." And she thought, 'But if I asked, you
should answer!
Maeve nodded slightly. "Then we'll take our leave. Goodbye."
After they left, Aeolian muttered, "What the hell is this?" and got up to leave.
Seeing that the butler had closed the door to the master bedroom and came out, Aeolian immediately walked over and asked him, "Is Uncle asleep?"
"Yes, my lady."
Aeolian looked at the closed door and pulled the butler to the side. "You've been by my uncle's side for more than twenty years. You know my uncle's matters very well. I want to know how my uncle's insomnia came about. I also want to do something for him." The butler smiled slightly. "This is Mr. Soar's personal privacy. Even if you're his niece, you shouldn't ask me in private. I still have something on. Forgive me for not being able to accompany you."
With that, the butler took out his pocket watch and went downstairs.
Aeolian spat. "Isn't you just a servant? What's there to be arrogant about?"
Maeve did not know about this interlude and handed the design to Paige for safekeeping. She suddenly remembered that it was time for the results of Islaton Private International Kindergarten's school uniform competition.
