Secret Bride 403
Gale didn't even look at her. His voice was flat and emotionless. If it were anyone else, I would have saved them too. You don't have to thank me. I still have to fish here at night. I won't reach the shore until an hour later." He was not interested in the reason why she was bathing in the sea in the middle of the night. He only reached out to help because she was a citizen of Setigal.
Maeve understood what he meant and immediately said, "I promise I won't disturb you for the next hour."
"Um."
Maeve looked at the row of fishing gear and could not help but feel her hands itch. "May I use these fishing gear? I can pay the fee."
Gale made time to glance at her. "Whatever. No need."
"Thank you." Maeve thanked him politely. She took a small stool and sat one meter away from him. She skillfully adjusted the fishing rod and swung the hook.
The two of them sat far away from each other and did not disturb each other. They went their separate ways.
The two figures, one tall and one low, looked strangely harmonious in the butler's eyes,
Just like... a father and daughter who were out on a vacation?
The butler laughed in his heart, 'Mr. Soar is not married Yet, how could he have such a big daughter?
In less than five minutes, Maeve's fishing rod moved. She calmly retracted the line and caught a huge sea bass.
She took one look, tossed the fish back into the sea, and continued swinging the hook.
Then, she caught another grouper, about the size of an arm.
It was thrown back into the sea by Maeve and she swung the hook again.
From the corner of his eye, Gale saw Maeve throw another black snapper back into the sea. The corners of his mouth twitched uncontrollably. 'Has she taken over this sea area? Why are all the fish heading towards her?" The butler looked at the empty bucket beside Gale and then at Maeve's extravagant action of throwing out one fish after another. He closed his
ed his eyes silently. This was too far away..
Maeve felt that the fishing rod was heavier than before. The guy who was biting the hook was still struggling. She did not know what it was, but it was useless no matter how hard she tried
"Can... Can you help me?" Maeve turned to the butler for help.
The butler was stunned for a moment before he immediately went forward to help.
With a crash, Maeve saw a huge shadow slapping towards her.
She subconsciously retreated, but she was knocked to the deck by that thing.
and looked over. He only saw Maeve being pressed down by a huge fish. The fish tail swung and Gale narrowed his eyes slapped her body. Even if he could not see clearly, he could sense her lost and helpless mood. Gale's mood suddenly improved after not being able to catch any fish for a long time.
"Mr. Soar!" The butler was pleasantly surprised. "Mr. Reese caught a giant bluefin tuna! It looks like it weighs more than 50 kilograms!"
Gale was speechless and his good mood was suddenly gone.
"Ms. Reese, you're really amazing," the butler said to Maeve. "This is the first time I've seen someone catch such a big fish, and it's a rare species."
After all, Gale always got nothing.
Maeve wiped the seawater off her face and waved her hand when she heard this. "I was just lucky. Mr. Soar, can I trouble your chef to deal with this fish? Let's eat together?"
"Borrowing fishing gear and the chef. Am I a hotel assistant?" Gale said indifferently.
Maeve thought that he had rejected her. Just as she was about to say forget it, she heard Gale instruct the butler, "Send the fish to the kitchen."
"No problem, sir."
The kitchen prepared the ingredients as quickly as possible. With the bluefin tuna as the main character, they made a seafood banquet and sent it up.
Only Gale and Maeve sit beside the table, and the butler and the others stood respectfully at the side. It was silent.
Maeve was not interested in the bluefin tuna she caught. Instead, she
ate
The yacht was slowly returning. It could dock in 15 minutes at the latest.
a
lot of seafood soup.
Maeve finished her meal and glanced at Gale. He did not care about any rigid etiquette when he ate. He was very fast, but he did not seem rude. Instead, he was very unrestrained. "What are you looking at?" Gale suddenly asked.
"Uh... Mr. Soar, I hope you won't take what I said to heart. I've already forgotten everything that happened before. I won't mention it to anyone else," Maeve said after some deliberation.
Gale raised his eyebrows. "You think I asked someone to send a thank-you gift just to keep your mouth shut?"
Maeve blinked. 'Wasn't that the case?'
"My life is not something the value of a few sets of clothes can compare to." Gale casually put down his napkin and gestured for the butler to pour wine for him. Then, he continued, "I just didn't expect Mr. Reese to not only not accept it, but also threaten me." After so many years, this was the first time someone dared to threaten him,
Maeve immediately felt awkward. 'So I had misunderstood."
Gale had given her a building so generously. Of course, she would think that it was a hush money.
Who knew that he only felt that a few sets of clothes were not worthy of being compared to his life?
He was rich and willful.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Soar. I misunderstood." Maeve touched her earlobe and felt a little embarrassed. "My friend and I saved you once. You saved me tonight too. Take it as offset."
With that, she couldn't help but sneeze twice. Her shoulders shook.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

"Ms. Reese, you don't look too good. You might have caught a cold, the butler said with concern. He then asked Gale, "Sir, what do you think?"
Gale was expressionless. "Go get the doctor"
Maeve quickly waved her hand and refused. "There's no need. We're almost at the shore. I'll go back and take my medicine myself. There's no need to trouble you."
"I saved you. You'll do whatever I say. Don't talk back"
Maeve was depressed. 'I did not talk back!
The doctor came over to check Maeve's temperature. She had a low fever and her throat was inflamed, so the doctor prescribed some medicine for her.
Maeve did not want to take it. She had Theo's non-bitter fever medicine at home. She wanted to endure it and go back to take Theo's medicine.
However, when she looked up and saw Gale's solemn and dignified face, Maeve somehow wilted.
She slowly stuffed the medicine into her mouth and swallowed them one by one.
Gale sneered. "You're taking your medicine like a child. I wonder how old Ms. Reese is this year?
"No, I'm at least one round younger than you," Maeve said humbly.
Was she indirectly calling me old? This little girl was quite eloquent, Gale thought.
The butler looked on happily. Although Gale did not smile from the beginning to the end, he knew that Gale was in a good mood. Otherwise, he would not have said so much.
Even in front of Aeolian, he was a man of few words.
After taking the medicine, she did not know if it was a psychological effect, but the feeling of dizziness in Maeve had reduced a lot.
What followed was exhaustion and drowsiness.
She thought that she would not be able to sleep when she was about to reach the shore, but in the next second, she lay on the table and quickly fell asleep.
Wind Gale frowned, a subtle dissatisfaction in his heart. "What did her parents teach her? How is it any different from sending herself into a tiger's den to be so unguarded in front of strangers?"
The butler smiled and said, "You just saved her. You're a good person to her. Of course, she doesn't have to be wary."
