Chapter 441
When her punishment was over, she would definitely kill her! At that moment, Flora saw a figure flash before her. “Arthur! Arthur, wait!”
Arthur stopped in his tracks when he heard her voice. His eyes were filled with surprise. “Fiora? I’ve heard about you. Are you okay now?” Tears fell from Fiora’s eyes. “Not at all! It’s all Maeve’s fault. She bewitched Uncle. Arthur, you have to help me. Only Mother
can save me now!”
Her mother was always gentle and soft-hearted and would definitely not leave her alone!
“I’m afraid that’s going to be hard.” Arthur looked troubled. “I went to visit the Princess Wren today and told her about your matters, but she didn’t seem to intend to help you.”
“How is that possible? Arthur, it must be wrong!” Fiora asked agitatedly, “Mother would not treat me like this!”
Arthur sighed. “Fiora, you’ve really gone too far this time. No matter what happened between you and Maeve, you shouldn’t have done that kind of thing. What you should do now is reflect on yourself. Only then will you have a chance.”
Fiora grabbed Arthur’s arm in exasperation. “Arthur, I’ve already been harmed by her, and now even you’re also speaking up for her? Even you think I’m at fault?”
“If you didn’t do anything wrong, why do you get punished? Fiora, you’re not a kid anymore. Maeve is the same age as you, but she’s not so unreasonable as you.”
The stabs by one’s sweetheart hurt the most. Fiora’s hatred for Maeve was almost at its peak and even got her uncle implicated.
“Arthur, please help me. I just need to see my mother once. I can definitely change her mind!” Fiora gritted her teeth and begged. Arthur felt sympathy for her pathetic suffering and finally relented. “Alright, I’ll find an opportunity to help you.”

There was a pile of raw stones placed on the table and in front of Byron was a small machine to
Maeve and the two little ones sat opposite him and stared intently
cut
them.
After a while, a gray raw stone turned into an emerald. It was so beautiful that one
could not take their eyes
off it.
Maeve was surprised at his skillful technique. “Byron, how do you know this?”
“Didn’t I tell you?” Byron raised his eyebrows. “Our company also has two private gem mines in Erancia. I’ve visited them a few times before.”
Maeve and the kids were shocked. They really didn’t know it. So it turned out that they were much more wealthy than they imagined.
-Byron washed the crumbs off the jade and added casually, “After you marry me, those will be yours.”
Maeve gulped. ‘Are you tempting me?’
On the right, Theo hugged Maeve’s arm tightly and said nervously, “Mommy, I can earn more gems for you. The day I get rich, I’ll also buy you two gem mines!” 17:31 Wed, Dec.
Chapter 441
On the left, Will did some calculations. “Mom, I’ll also try my best to save money!” In the worst scenario, he would think of a way to usurp his father’s position.
Byron mocked the two chubby kids without holding back. “You’d better talk about raising your mother when you’re really. rich. How dare you spout nonsense in front of me now.”
Maeve changed the topic. “Continue. How long these things will take?”
Byron glanced at it and narrowed his dark eyes imperceptibly. “Do you want to play a game?”
“What game?”
Byron introduced, “Guess the color of the gem inside the raw stone. The loser promises the winner a condition.
It was too professional for them to guess the quality or types of these jade materials. But naming the color was much easier.
As soon as he dropped his words, Maeve and the kids all perked up. They had already started fantasizing about requesting the excessive conditions they would not dare to raise normally if they won. “Come on, let’s do it!” Byron snorted softly and casually picked out a random stone for them to observe.
“I’m guessing that this is white!” Maeve directly copied the answer to the last stone. Anyway, Connor wouldn’t provide moderate jades.
Theo immediately echoed. “Then I’m the same as Mommy!”
Will observed carefully for a few minutes and even scratched it a few times. “I think it’s blue. The surface is very hard, and judging from the cracks and shape, it’s possible to be a type of blue.”
“Then I guess it’s green,” Byron said casually.
After the processing, it was indeed green inside.
Not to admit defeat, Maeve and the two little ones puffed up their faces. “Again! There are so many more!”
They did not believe that they could lose to him. Sometimes, the sloppy players were the most addicted.
Maeve faced such a total debacle that she madly scratched her hair at last.
At last, they even got a cat’s eye emerald, which was overflowing with light at Byron’s fingertips. It was undoubtedly of the supreme quality.
Byron casually placed it on the tray so that they could look at it carefully. He chuckled and said, “You guys are quite lucky. The value of this type is much more than the combined values of all the jades before just now.”
“Mommy, this one is so beautiful.” This was Theo’s immediate feeling, “Make a full set of jewelry. Mommy, you will- definitely look awesome!”
Will did some calculations. “There will be leftovers after making a whole set of jewelry. It can also make a pendant or something else. Mom, what do you think?”
As a woman, she deserved as much jewelry as possible. This cat’s eye emerald, which was regarded as priceless, was only -something that could please Mommy in the eyes of the two little ones. Other than that, it had no other use. Although Maeve was used to relying on her kids and also indeed planned to live off them in the future, she was still impressed by their generous tone.
She hugged them and rubbed against their chubby faces. In a moment of smugness, she blurted out, “Good boys, it’s enough for Mommy to have you guys! I don’t need anything else.” Chapter 441
All of a sudden, the back of her neck was pinched by a slightly cold hand.
Feeling an intoxicating sensation spreading over her body, Mac cowered and turned her head around.
Byron stood behind her with a faint smile. “It’s finished, and you’ve had your fun. It’s my turn now. How do you plan to fulfill the eight conditions you owe me just now?”
Maeve widened her eyes. ‘Well, after laughter, come tears! She had almost forgotten that she had lost eight times in a row.
