Fiona pushed them away and yelled, “Get away from me. Where were you when I was rejected a while ago?”

“Fiona, we were just afraid of Mr. Cedric.”

“Yeah. We're not from a prestigious family like you, nor are we as pretty as you. We would never dare show ourselves in front of Mr. Cedric. Please, don’t be mad at us,” said Jane.

“Well, you've got that right.” Fiona looked at Jane in satisfaction.

“It’s all because of you that I was able to attend such an important event. Of course, I would always stand by your side.” Jane buttered Fiona up as she smirked at Julie.

“Since you’re so good with words, do you have any idea how to draw Mr. Cedric’s attention to me? If you could help me with this, I’ll make sure to give you something satisfying in return. I’m sure you know that my family is preparing to film a new drama and a variety show.”

Jane's eyes brightened when she heard what Fiona had said. She needed to grab this opportunity! “I do have an idea.”

Fiona looked at Jane doubtfully

    "Maia, stop drinking. Even though it's just beer, you shouldn't drink like this..." Hope paid the bill and then pulled Maia towards the exit."If you're feeling down, I have a great solution! Come with me." Maia was puzzled as Hope dragged her along.They walked along the beach for a long time. Late at night, there were fewer people on the beach. They avoided the crowded areas and finally stopped when they were alone."Maia, if you're unhappy, just shout it out to the sea. It's much better than keeping it inside or drowning your sorrows in alcohol! When I first started in this industry and felt wronged, I shouted out all my frustrations to the sea. Shouting out loud makes everything better! As long as you tell the sea, you can manifest your destiny!"After saying this, Hope took a few steps forward, faced the vast, dark sea, and loudly shouted, "Buck Harvey, no matter how much I like you, even if you don't like me, I won't force my way into your life! I will give up on you, for

    Hope noticed Maia walking away and glanced at Cedric standing still. She hurriedly ran to catch up with Maia.She never imagined that her sister, the elegant and cold female president who now captivates the entertainment industry, had experienced so much pain in the past! "Sis!" Hope quickened her pace to catch up with Maia.When she caught up, Hope saw Maia crying, but comforting words failed to leave her mouth. For now, all she could do was silently accompany her. Together, they entered the resort.As Maia disappeared from his sight, Cedric remained motionless, contemplating his own anger. Seeing this, Baz approached and asked, "Mr. Cedric, it seems Ms. Maia misunderstood. She thought you would protect Ms. Rita and is now completely against you. Why didn’t you tell her that you knew about the painting and provided the clues?"Cedric narrowed his eyes and sighed, "This is something I owe her. There's no need to tell her.""But you've done a lot for Ms. Maia. More than once, you r

    Maia pursed her lips. "I am not his weakness, and he is not a pitiful lover in my eyes. We can only ever be in a hostile relationship. I must make Rita pay for the pain I've endured, for the child I lost. It's not going to be resolved so easily!"Hearing Maia's words, Hope said softly, "You're saying one thing but meaning another. If it really doesn't matter, why cry? When you said those hurtful words, it hurt him, but it hurt you too! Even if you hate Rita, what does it have to do with Cedric?"Maia looked at her and asked, "Hope, wouldn't you defend your mother?"Hope, upon hearing Maia's question, first froze and then nodded without hesitation."I would. My mom hurt you, so I've never had the right to ask you to forgive someone who harmed you. But even if she did it a thousand or ten thousand times, she's still my mother. She gave birth to me, raised me, and treated me so well. I know her better than anyone. She even sacrificed her life for me, when Tess threatened her."By now

    Looking at Hope's retreating figure, Maia smiled happily for her.After Hope entered her room, Maia gradually withdrew her gaze, and her smile began to fade. She looked out at the sea, opened the sliding glass door, and stepped onto the balcony. The sea breeze gently brushed against her, but it could not soothe her complex emotions.She stood on the balcony for an unknown amount of time, sighed softly, and turned around to go inside. However, just as she turned around, she and Cedric, standing on the neighboring balcony, once again met eyes, locking gazes in an instant.The interplay of their eyes seemed to create a spark. Maia had not expected him to choose a regular suite, let alone one right next to hers. But considering this was his island and his resort, he could stay wherever he wanted.Maia withdrew her gaze, pretending not to have seen anything, and prepared to walk inside. Yet, at that moment, his deep voice sounded with the sea breeze."I'm sorry."His words caused a su

    Vicky said this casually, but her face showed anger. Thinking about what happened in the elevator before, she was furious and wanted to flay Aiken alive! "Never mind, let's not talk about it. Just hurry up and put on the dresses. The makeup artist and stylist will be here soon, right?"Hope covered her mouth and giggled, then quickly took the dress Vicky handed over and ran to her room. After Hope's door closed, Maia took the dress but showed no intention of changing."Maia, why aren't you changing? The stylist and makeup artist will be here soon." Vicky looked at Maia, puzzled by her lack of reaction.Maia just stared at Vicky. The atmosphere suddenly fell silent for a long time, making everyone uncomfortable. Even Vicky felt a sense of oppression, a feeling she had only experienced with Aiken. She did not expect to feel it with Maia as well."Vicky," Maia spoke, breaking the silence. "What's your relationship with Cedric?"Hearing Maia's question, Vicky's posture changed insta

    Vicky raised her head and looked at Maia. “My purpose here is to design unique dresses for you. It’s because you were the only one for Cedric. In any case, I’m here to serve you.”“Is that all?” Maia squinted at her, “Don’t you think you need to explain yourself about the painting?”Vicky was a little surprised. She did not think Maia would press her this much, “Are you wired differently? You’re catching on to things too quickly. Once you discover a lead, you unearth the rest of them. How do you do it? “You are truly worthy of being the CEO of Starlight Entertainment. Pretty, sexy, and smart. You’re the whole package. Your strengths are more than enough to ensnare the heart of a sea of men!”Maia frowned, “Are you paying me a compliment or lobbing an insult at me, Vicky?”“Well, you shouldn’t have questioned our friendship. Let’s say we’re even now!” Vicky was not going to hold it in. She was a straightforward person. Either she liked someone or she hated them, and she truly want

    “What are you doing next door? Does one of your celebrities stay there?” Hope looked at Maia in confusion. “Wait a minute. I seem to recall that no one else stays on this floor except us!”“It was nothing. I’m going to get changed now.” Maia picked up her gown in a daze and walked into one of the rooms in their suite. Everyone was puzzled. Then, the make-up artist and stylist went to work on both Maia and Hope.Maia remained quiet throughout the entire process. She merely nodded or shook her head whenever the make-up artist and stylist asked her questions. They eventually smartened up and refrained from asking her anything. There was about half an hour left until The Horizon Awards by the time they were done.“Let’s go, Maia.”Maia nodded and went downstairs with Hope. They got in the car and headed toward the event venue on the other side of the resort. This place was impossibly vast. It took them fifteen minutes to reach the event venue. The Horizon Awards had always been a lux

    Maia took the glass of wine and said, “I take your compliment as a sign that my company did splendidly, Mr. Victor. but I’m far from being done.”“Oh? Is that so?” Victor flashed her a dubious smile. “It’s true.” Maia nodded, took a step forward, and poured everything from her glass into his. “I’m not exactly a good drinker and I can’t afford to be drunk. After all, I have a show to catch later. I need to look for Hope now. Please excuse me, Mr. Victor!”Maia emphasized the word “show” on purpose. Victor was not going to know what hit him! Then, she smiled and nodded at him politely so he could not find fault with her!It helped that she was unbelievably alluring and that every move she made demonstrated pure elegance. This was not something he could find in every pretty lady! That was why he stared at her with a perverted longing!Victor looked at the contents in his glass. What an exquisite lady, he thought.

    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?
