Chapter 368
“I accidentally hurt myself during the fight. If you don’t like it, I’ll undergo surgery to remove it so that you won’t feel bad looking at it.”
Hearing that, Maeve frowned and pushed Zion away. “No one feels bad though!”
At that, Zion hissed in pain.
Maeve thought that she had hurt him, and she immediately checked on his injury. “What’s wrong? I didn’t use that much force just now.
Zionsmiled faintly when he saw how ardous Marve was
Maeve
saw his reaction and realized that he had pranked her. She glared at Zion. “I’m worried about you, but you’re here fooling around!”
Seeing that Maeve was about to leave, Zion swiftly reached out and held her in his arms. “I’m sorry. Forgive me.”
The atmosphere in the bedroom became intimate. Maeve’s face bumed, and she wanted to push him away. However, she was afraid to touch Zion’s injury.
In an instant, silence filled the room. It was so quiet that they seemed to be able to hear each other’s hearts beating.
“Hey, don’t push mel Don’t push mel” Lyra’s voice suddenly sounded from outside the room.
When the two heard the noise, Maeve immediately stood up from Zion’s lap. Charlie and Lyra staggered into the room.
Charlie looked awkward as he said, “I–I’ve just arrived…”
Charlie was still holding his luggage. Lyra glared at Charlie and said, “It’s all your fault! You’ve ruined it!”
“How could you blame me? How would I have known?
Charlle stopped speaking when he noticed zion giving him the death stare.
He instantly swallowed his words and said, “I’m just here to change my clothes. I didn’t know that you two were… Okay, I’ll leave now. I’ll change outside. Take your time, and have a good chat!”
Charlie dragged Lyra out of the room as he spoke, leaving only Maeve and Zion in the quiet room.
The tension in the room remained until Zion broke the silence. “The Scott family’s mess…”
“I’ve fixed them.”
Zion fell silent for a moment before he said, “I heard from Lyra that you’re debuting

“The entertainment industry isn’t as simple as you imagine. I’ll pave the way for you if you wish to venture into the industry.”
Scott Media only had Bryce after so many years. They had given him all the resources and spent a lot of money to promote him.
There were too many media companies with resources in Seathburn City now. All of them were more experienced than Scott Media. If Maeve hadn’t kept Bryce in Scott Media, he would’ve had greater achievements elsewhere,
Maeve was aware of this, too. If she wished to debut, she had to expand Mirage Group’s business to the entertainment industry.
“Thank you, but I can handle this.”
At the moment, Zion was topless, revealing his defined muscles. His gaze on Marve grew more intent. She hastily looked away and said, “I still have something to deal with in the office, I’ll-
Before Maeve could finish, Zion pinned her against the wall.
Maeve held her breath. Zion closed the door and groaned.
She felt her heart pounding as she bit her lips. “What are you doing?
Zion’s gaze moved down from Maeve’s captivating eyes to her red lips. He said in a low voice, “I’m done dealing with everything, and I’ve been waiting for today.”
He leaned in and gulped, his voice hoarse. “Nothing will get in our way. Maeve, would you be mine?”
Maeve’s cheeks and ears were flushed red. No one had everconfessed to her like this, even in her past life.
At this moment, she wished to hide somewhere, but she was pinned against the wall by Zion and had no room to escape.
“Mavy, answer me.

Zion forced her to look lim in the eyes. When she met his intent gaze, she could see the sincerity and eagerness in his eyes.
