The moment the tweet was posted, the netizens' accusations took a turn for the better! Cedric had personally responded to the scandal, who else would dare say otherwise?Moreover, Starlight Entertainment had released an official statement stating that they would be suing the three artists for defamation and terminating their contracts immediately!Maia eyed Cedric suspiciously. She could not really tell if he was trying to help her or make matters worse. Even though it looked like he had cleared all accusations of her sleeping with those male artists, he also exposed the fact that they were together for three days. “Wait a minute! Does that mean that Ms. Maia was with Mr. Cedric all along? So, those artists were just trying to frame her! How could Starlight Entertainment keep such horrible artists?”“To think those artists would even go so far as to defame their own boss. What were they thinking?” “Does this mean that they’re getting back together? I’m all for the warring couple
“Jordan, I already knew that she was the perpetrator. She also admitted it.”“What? She did? After hiding that fact for so many years! Did something happen to make her confess?” “There are some things I can’t tell you in detail over the phone, but she had her back up against the wall, so she confessed to save herself. Moreover, she paid her dues with her life.”“S-she’s dead?” Jordan asked in surprise.“Yes, she’s dead. So, we should bury this issue too.” “You’re right. There’s nothing more we could do if she’s already dead. Anyway, we’ve managed to find out the truth, even though no one suspected that Tess was the perpetrator.” Jordan sighed in sadness. “One more thing, I’ve heard from Aiken that you’ve lost your memories. How are you doing? Did your memories come back?” “Yeah.” Maia did not elaborate any further as it was too complicated to explain. “I’m glad.”At that moment, the pilot asked, “Mr. Cedric, should we take off now?”He looked at Maia and said, “You shoul
The moment Aiken stepped into the building, he encountered Nigel head on. Nigel had a pile of documents in his hands and he looked worn out. Aiken took off his sunglasses and marched toward him, blocking Nigel’s pathway. Nigel raised his head and looked at Aiken, “How can I help you, Mr. Cantrell?”“How did you know I had something to ask of you?”“You wouldn’t be blocking my way otherwise.”Aiken grinned at Nigel, “You’re right, I wouldn’t. You look exhausted. Didn’t sleep well last night?” “Is this why you’re blocking my path? If you have nothing more to say, I’ll take my leave. If you have any court cases you would like us to take up, feel free to look for me at our law firm.” Nigel sidestepped Aiken to leave. However, Aiken continued to block Nigel’s path as he said, “If it’s about Maia, would you be interested?” Nigel met Aiken’s eyes as he asked, “Where should we talk about this?”“There’s a cafe nearby, how about that?”“Sure,” Nigel replied, and they made their w
“Maia has regained her memories. Is that information enough?” Aiken smiled smugly at Nigel. He clearly knew that he had a piece of useful information.“Are you sure? Is this reliable? Where did you get this information from?” Nigel asked Aiken eagerly as he was still in shock. “Of course, it is. Maia personally told my dad that she remembers everything.”“Your dad?” Nigel asked. “He is the CFO of Starlight Entertainment. His name is Jordan Cantrell. I’m sure you know him, right?” Nigel nodded, “I’ve heard that Maia had personally approached him to get him to come back to the company. I just didn’t expect him to be your father.” Nigel smiled. “What do you mean? I know my dad is not as handsome as I am, but he’s not that bad either. He’s quite charming for a man of his age, you know,” Aiken refuted.Nigel could only laugh at Aiken’s response. The reason why he had not expected Aiken’s father to be Jordan was because he would never have thought that someone as capable as Jordan
Cedric's brows furrowed, his expression icy. As soon as Maia entered the parking lot, the reporters were blocked by the human wall formed by the bodyguards. At the same time, Cedric's driver, Gilbert, had already opened the car door."Get in the car," Cedric ordered.But in the next moment, Aiken's voice rang out, "Maia, I'm here! Hello!"Wearing a hat and sunglasses, Aiken waved to Maia, and the car door opened. Maia nodded at Aiken, then said to Cedric, "Thank you for your kindness, Cedric. Someone has come to pick me up. You don't need to trouble yourself. Our cooperation has ended, and thanks to you, we were able to catch Aunt Tess."Maia walked toward Aiken. After a few steps, Cedric held her slender wrist."We agreed that you wouldn't resist me anymore."Maia was stunned for a few seconds and replied, "I don't mean to resist you, but I have the right to choose whose car I get into. Please let go, Cedric. There are reporters around, and it would be hard to explain if somet
"How is your character so different from your public persona, Aiken?""Well, it's all because my manager, Lorraine, has been advising me to keep quiet in public," Aiken sighed in resignation.Maia nodded, "Listen to your agent, she's absolutely right."Aiken was about to say something when suddenly there was a loud "bang," and the luxury car jumped forward a few meters."Oh my goodness! What just happened?"Seeing Aiken covering his head, Maia reached out and gently patted his back, "Don't worry, it's just a minor rear-end collision.""Just a rear-end collision?" Aiken straightened up and looked at the back. Sure enough, an off-road vehicle had collided with the rear of the luxury car.Once the car stabilized, Nigel quickly asked, "Maia, are you okay?"Maia shook her head, "I'm fine.""I'm not fine!" Aiken exclaimed, "I was really scared! Who is it? Rear-ending us in broad daylight? The speed wasn't even fast, was the driver behind daydreaming or what?"Maia laughed again. Wh
Maia took the phone, and saw several entertainment company executives gathered together. These were familiar faces. Like Aiken's boss, the owner of Celia's former entertainment company, and the swallowed owner of Nebula Entertainment.Soon, their conversation reached her ears. "Ever since Maia Burgess appeared, she's been aiming for sole dominance. If we don't show Maia her place, she'll think she's leading in the entertainment industry!""First, she swallowed up my Nebula, making me an insignificant shareholder. Next, who knows who among you she might target. Maia is really arrogant!""An immature teen, what's there to be proud of? When Rosa managed Starlight Entertainment, she still had to show me some respect. Now, she's directly setting her sights on Aiken under my management?" The speaker was Aiken's boss, speaking through gritted teeth.He continued, "She arrived in Prismara this afternoon. I tracked her movements from the airport. It's time to give her a taste." The boss of Ne
"Cedric, that has nothing to do with me. You don't need to become anything for my sake. I cannot bear nor do I want to bear such a burden."Maia smiled slightly at Cedric and spoke in a very formulaic manner, "I just want to ask if you are interested in Mykonos Studio. After all, you mentioned earlier that the CEO, Victor, has some issues with the HL Corporation. I had investigated Victor, and he owns 60% of the shares of Mykonos Studio. After I take over, I will give you 40% of the shares as a thank you for saving me today."She didn't like owing favors, especially not to him."Okay.""In that case, please wait for good news, Mr. Cedric." After saying this, Maia looked at the driver in the driver's seat and said, "Please drop me off at the next intersection."The driver quickly glanced at Cedric through the rearview mirror, seeking his opinion. Without Cedric’s approval, the driver didn't dare to agree.Maia also understood this point and looked at Cedric. "How about it? Are yo
