“I’m going to press charges against you! I’ll make sure your restaurant is no longer in business! You’re going to pay for what you put me through today. This isn’t something that can be solved with an apology. Just wait and see!”

Rita looked fierce, and her tone was fearsome too. Maia was kind of impressed with her. She was drenched through and through. She was also shivering and looked very miserable.

However, she still found the time to shout at the restaurant staff. Shouldn’t she have a change of clothes before she did that?

Maia felt a little helpless. So, she listened to Rita’s incessant grievance as the restaurant manager apologized to her repeatedly. Then she frowned.

She hatched the plan. “I think we shouldn’t make this bigger, mother. Cedric bought this place. So, it’s technically the Larkin family’s property.”

“I-If we make this thing bigger than it is, it will affect their profit. Money isn’t as big an issue as our family’s reputation.”

Rita used to tell her countless

    Maia paused for a few seconds. Then she said again, her fists clenched tightly, “With that said, I’m not about to let her off easy. I remembered every single thing she’d done to me vividly. “When all’s said and done, Zera’s death means nothing to me. I’m merely returning the favor because you saved me last night. It’s up to you how you’re going to find out her murderer.”He didn’t care about Zera’s fate. The reason he was investigating it was because someone pinned it on Maia. Zera was but a pawn. The perpetrator only used her to throw Maia under the bus.As for Rita, she was going to pay for what she did to Maia. There was no question about it.He took Maia’s hands in his own and led her across the street. She tried to break free, but Cedric had a firm grip on her. She looked around and got worried that somebody might record everything on video. So, she pursed her lips and stopped struggling.Maia shook his hand off as soon as they were in the car. The partition went up momentar

    “Can you move your legs?” he asked her. Maia nodded. Then, he frowned and said, “Crawl out of here.” He calmly nudged Maia toward the shattered window.“Cedric…”“Do as I say!” he said, not leaving room for discussion. Maia knew he must have been injured. She could not do anything while she was still in the car. She had to get out and figure out a way to save him!She gritted her teeth and crawled toward the shattered window with everything she had. Cedric lifted his hands to help push her legs out of the window. Then, the onlookers standing outside quickly helped pull her out of the car. At the same time, Baz had taken down the car window on his side and made it out as well.“Where’s Mr. Cedric, Ms. Maia?” Baz was seriously injured as well. He could barely stand. Maia did not answer him. Instead, she put her hand into the place where she crawled out from. “Give me your hand, Cedric!” He looked at Maia and smiled. He lifted his hand strenuously. His fingers touched Maia’s

    He was badly injured. So, how exactly did he appear before her to help her up?“Cedric!” Maia held him up. “Silly girl.” Cedric glanced at her poignantly, “Do you think I’d die that easily?”With that, he passed out under the hot sun. The ambulance soon came and transported them to the hospital. Maia was well-protected when the car crashed and flipped over, so she suffered only minor injuries.Very soon, the news about the warring couple’s car crash made it to the trending search online. Tess and Errol were at the hospital the moment they caught the news.“Sis!” Errol blew the whistle and signed while he was running. He saw Maia sitting on the bench in the corridor and rushed to her. “Are you okay, sis? Are you hurt?”Maia said nothing when she saw Errol. She shook her head instead.“Thank goodness you’re okay, Maia. Do you have any idea how worried Errol and I were when we saw the news? What am I supposed to tell your late mom if something happened to you?”Tess held her ch

    Tess stared at Buck and sneered, “Good job taking care of Hope back then! Look at you, standing up for her now. You’re just an assistant. What makes you think you have a say here? Furthermore, do you think Hope doesn’t know what her mother did?”Tess looked at Hope. She clearly had it out for her.“I’m just telling you the truth, Ms. Tess. There’s no need to be mean toward Hope and me. I’m Ms. Maia’s assistant. She entrusted me to take care of Hope.”“That’s enough, Buck. Stop.” Hope stopped him quickly. She knew it was pointless. Tess simply did not trust her. “That’s enough, Aunt Tess. Sis already has enough on her plate. You shouldn’t add to it.” Errol signed, nodding at both Buck and Hope, bringing an end to the dispute. Hope smiled at him and nodded too. Peace and quiet finally descended in the hallway. Maia had monitored them with her peripheral vision. Some moments passed and the doctor exited the operating room.“How is he, doctor?” Maia asked worryingly. The doctor

    Tess was having trouble holding her own. Still, Cedric might be a terrifying character, but this was a good chance for her to talk about this. She had to seize it.Maia was a little worried to hear that Tess wanted Cedric to give up his position so that she could take over Starlight Entertainment. He might have received the emails and the documents, but she was the one who checked through them.There was no doubt Cedric was an outsider and that Starlight Entertainment belonged to the Burgess family. As such, Tess had every right to take over the company. This worried her. There was no way she could let Tess lay a finger on Starlight Entertainment. Maia composed herself and smiled at Tess.“Don’t get upset, Aunt Tess. I’ll be reporting to work tomorrow.” Tess said immediately, “You’ve lost your memories. You were a complete rookie three years ago. What can you achieve? It’s a big company. I’m not comfortable with that.”“You say that, but I’m the CEO of Starlight Entertainment.

    Maia noticed that she was backed against the door. There was nowhere else she could go.Cedric frowned in disapproval at Maia’s behaviour. “Come here.” Maia did not give in as she continued to put distance between them. “Come here!”“Cedric, I won’t come closer to you. I won’t give you a chance to take advantage of me. If you want to say something, say it while you’re on the bed. Besides, it’s not like you could walk over.” Maia said while adding the last part softly.He smiled at her childish provocations. He immediately threw off the covers with an arm, walked briskly toward her and carried her over to the bed.Before Maia could react, she was already sitting on the bed. She was shocked by his actions as she looked at him wide-eyed. “Your legs? I thought you had a fracture?” Cedric only grinned cheekily in response. Maia looked at his mischievous reaction and recalled what the doctor had told her after he was done with his surgery.“It’s only a minor injury.”“So, the

    Cedric just nodded coldly in response. Maia tried hard to suppress her laughter. “Rita, Cedric means that he doesn’t want to tire you. It’s been a long day for everyone, you should go home and have a break. Rest assured as long as I’m here, I’ll take good care of Cedric.” Rita’s expression eased at Maia’s considerate words. “Alright, I feel assured having you look after Cedric. I’ll take my leave, then.” Maia smiled and nodded, “Do be careful on your way home.”“Cedric, you should let Maia know if you need anything. She’s more than capable of taking care of you. You don’t really need me by your side anymore.”Cedric could not help but sneered at the irony. When he had sustained severe burns protecting Maia in his teens, she only came to visit him a handful of times. She also only came once when he had burnt his back while saving Maia from another fire. Since when had he needed her by his side? He continued to ignore her as his face remained impassive.As Rita prepared to le

    When Cedric was drunk at Stonebrook, he had admitted that it was all his fault. That he should not have lost his memories and forgotten her. Maia had always known that he regretted how he had treated her after the fire. She did not know that he had also regained his memories. She thought that the words he had said when he was drunk were just nonsense. Now, she finally understood that he had really meant them. He remembered. Unfortunately, her heart could not be won over so easily. It was undeniable that he had saved her and that she was touched by his gestures, but how could a heart that had turned into stone be touched so easily?“I don’t need you anymore. It would’ve been better if you hadn’t regained those memories. It would’ve been for the best, for all of us,” Maia said with teary eyes. Maia’s thoughts were a mess when he first told her that he had regained his memories. However, she knew that it was futile now. He had missed the chance to reciprocate her feelings. It was

    Amanda came to sit next to Maia as she said, “I’m glad you’ve noticed this as well. Lauren is usually quite into the drama that she’s watching on TV. Today’s episode was a sad one, so I was wondering why she was still so happy watching it.” Lauren smiled back at them and replied, “I’m just really happy. I’ve never thought that I’d be able to see my eldest son again and that he has such a kind and beautiful wife by his side. “Eddie was also able to find his loved one, and I was lucky enough to be a grandmother. I never thought that I’d be able to go on a family trip with all my sons.” She started to tear up.“Lauren, don’t cry,” Maia said as she handed Lauren a handkerchief to dry her tears. Lauren wiped her tears as she smiled and nodded. “Don’t worry about me. I’m just being dramatic.” She looked around and asked, “Where’s Cedric? Is he with Eddie?”Maia nodded. “Yeah. This new project is a bit of a hassle, so he went over to try to help.” Lauren sighed, “Eddie’s father an

    Cedric just smiled when he saw Maia’s worried reaction. “You sure you’ll keep your promise?” Maia tugged the blanket closer to herself and nodded. Maia would not dare to say no. If Cedric decided to do as he had said, she would just end up in bed the whole morning. “We can register our marriage anytime. You mean it?” She knew that Cedric was just baiting her, but she had no choice. She did not know what he would do next. When she glanced at his handsome face, her heart could not help but skip a beat. Just then, Cedric took out two pieces of paper from the bedside drawer. Maia was taken aback as she saw the document. They were marriage registration forms, and they were already filled in. “T-This was a setup! You’ve already had this all planned out from the beginning!” Maia scanned through the forms and was surprised to see that the only section left empty was the signature. Maia did not know when Cedric had started to prepare all this, but it looked like it had been a whil

    Cedric glanced at Baz and asked, “How does it feel to miss someone so much?”Baz’s smile froze as he shook his head quickly. “Now, I can finally understand why you hate being separated from Ms. Maia.”Cedric just looked at Baz coldly. Baz quickly added when he noticed Cedric’s glare, “I’m just saying that you love your wife very much, and that man who’s like you would definitely understand.”“That’s a fact,” Cedric replied as he turned around and walked back into the bedroom. Baz immediately stopped him as he asked. “Mr. Cedric, why don’t you tell Ms. Maia the real reason why you’re so against calling Ms. Lauren your mother? Why didn’t you tell her the scars on your back were inflicted by Ms. Rita?” It was a horrible and unimaginable part of his childhood. “I don’t want to frighten her.”“But it’s difficult for you as well, Mr. Cedric. Calling Ms. Lauren your mother brings back horrible memories for you too.” “It doesn’t matter. I’ll do anything for her.” Cedric replied as he

    “Is that true?” Gigi asked her grandmother.Lauren nodded and said, “Of course it is. Has grandma ever lied to you?”“Wow! Grandma, what was Daddy like when he was a kid?” Gigi was excited. She was not sleepy anymore as she pestered Lauren to tell her more. “Whenever I brought him to attend events, he would always cry. I still remember he had wet his pants once in kindergarten.” Gigi covered her mouth and giggled happily. Amanda laughed and looked at Eddie. “Did you really wet your pants?”Eddie palmed his forehead and told his mother, “Stop embarrassing me in front of my daughter, Mom.” Lauren just smiled happily back at her son. At the same time, Maia tugged on the hem of Cedric’s shirt and questioned cheekily, “Did you wet your pants when you were a kid?” Cedric drew her into his arms in response and threatened, “Maia, it seems like you won’t be able to go to bed tonight.” “I’m not afraid of your empty threats,” Maia replied. “Are you sure about that?”Maia nod

    It was hard to believe he’d change his mind out of nowhere. She blinked and gawked at him. She almost forgot to breathe because of the sheer shock. Her face turned red from it, too. “Hey, breathe.” Cedric frowned. He realized her eyes were widening and her cheeks were completely reddened. Then, her lungs worked, and she started drawing breath again. She gripped the hem of his shirt instinctively. “Hmm?” Cocking his brow, he looked at her casually while taking her hands in his. “Do you want to know why I changed my mind?”She nodded immediately. Needless to say, she wanted to spring that question on him, but she wondered if she should. On the other hand, he merely chuckled and didn’t say anything. All he did was fix a deep, passionate stare at her. His eyes were filled with love and affection when he did it. Realizing that he wasn’t going to talk, she was bewildered. “W-Why aren’t you saying anything?”His grin widened at what she said. Reaching out, he pinched her fair ch

    Taking his hands, she rested her fair cheeks on his palm.“Is there another reason you did it?” She asked. “I had someone plant something in the painting.”“What do you mean?” She pressed.“A wire.”Then, it hit her. “D-Does this mean you knew Fidelia would buy the painting at all costs?”“Mm-hmm.” He nodded.Pursing her lips, she said, “I guess it tracks. After all, Fidelia will surely buy anything you donate to Nordic College. She loves you so much that she peeled an entire bowl of prawns for you.”“Do peeling prawns mean she loves me?” He cocked his brow.She nodded instinctively.“Well, then. Do you know how much I love you now?”Maia was initially pondering something, but she was scattered the moment she heard what he said!Her face turned red. She couldn’t decide if she should nod or shake her head now. The only thing she could do now was change the topic. “Wait a minute. I just asked Gigi to bid on it. Did I almost mess up your plan?” Her brows were furrowed. She

    “Maia!” Amanda called out to her and hastened over. “D-Did you just say I was already on trending search?”“Mm-hmm.” Nodding, she handed her phone to Amanda. Amanda saw the search topic ‘Amanda Tate Burst Out Laughing.’ and was rooted to the spot.“H-How’s this already up there?”Maia chuckled. “There are so many people in the dining hall. There’s no way you can keep it from spreading on the internet for long. Even Gigi and Eddie got on the trending search. They were right behind you. “Valentines Group has also started working on the public relations angle. I browsed the internet and didn’t find any overly vicious remarks either. None of the marketing accounts were trying to stir up trouble either. All of Gigi’s pictures were censored as well. So, there’s nothing to be worried about here.”Amanda let out a sigh of relief at what she said. “It’s a good thing that no one attacked Gigi on the internet. Otherwise, I’m going to start chasing them with a machete that’s one foot long!

    “Why, you!” Fidelia took the glass of fruit juice from the table and spilled it all over him!The sticky juices clung to his cheeks for a second before rolling down them.“Listen up, plastic face! It doesn’t matter if I can’t lay a finger on Maia because Cedric loves and protects her. It isn’t your place to make fun of me! Who do you think you are, Neilson? “You’re nothing more than my family’s lap dog. Look at how stiff your face is. You’ve wasted a perfectly good glass of fruit juice!”Staring at him angrily, Fidelia warned him nastily. She was so gripped with rage that her chest was rising and falling hastily. Then, she gritted her teeth and threw the empty glass at him.Catching the glass midair, he lowered his head. “You make a fine point, Ms. Fidelia.” Wiping the fruit juice from his cheeks, he apologized again. “Please calm down, Ms. Fidelia. You have to look at where we are now. It’d be wise not to make Mr. Thomas mad again.”“Are you seriously warning me again? Who do

    Maia made up a reason so Amanda could take Gigi away. Amanda nodded, carried her daughter, and left the scene. All Gigi did was speak the truth, but Fidelia’s face grew grim and shot the three-year-old girl a terrible look. It was clear that Fidelia might do something outrageous to Gigi again if she didn’t divert her attention from the little girl. After all, Fidelia didn’t care about the consequences of her actions at all!So, she looked at Fidelia and said, “I’m not sure why you kept trying to win my husband’s heart, but I’ve been sitting here the whole time. Are you ignoring me on purpose? Or, are you so arrogant that you care only about Cedric and nobody else?”Fidelia immediately shifted her gaze to Maia. Glaring at her, she directed all of her anger and frustration at Maia. “What are you trying to say, Maia? My dad saved Cedric’s life. So, is there anything wrong with me peeling the shrimp for him?
