Chapter 271 Filial Piety

"Yes, I know. I'll be waiting there." Maia hung up the phone promptly. Then, she quickly propped up the portrait against the living room wall and dialed Fernando's number. The call was quickly answered, and Fernando's friendly voice came through, "Hello? Maia.""Fernando, Ms. Rita and I will be coming to Beverley Manor later. I don't know why she's coming, but I'm worried she might harm Grandpa.""What? You and Madam are coming together? This..." Fernando was taken aback. He had not expected Maia to accompany Rita."It's a long story. She and I can never reconcile, but for now, she thinks I have amnesia, so she's treating me the way she did before. I need to be at Beverley Manor with her to see what she's up to!""Ms. Rita and Mr. Hans have never been on good terms. Back when Mr. Hans was still in good health, she caused him great suffering. There's so much history, and I have seen it all. Since Mr. Hans has been resting at Beverley Manor, she has never visited. She usually just

Chapter 272 A Disaster Out of Kindness

Fernando's expression remained unchanged."Ms. Rita, Ms. Maia, please have a seat. Mr. Hans is still resting. I'll go and see if he's awake," Fernando politely said. After uttering these words, he nodded to the two women and turned towards the antique staircase.Once Fernando left, Rita looked at her freshly painted bright red nails, somewhat dissatisfied, and said, "Are you juts going to sit there? Shouldn't you be preparing tea for your mother?""Of course, I'm sorry for forgetting my manners," Maia responded immediately, heading toward the nearby counter.She looked at the tea that Fernando had started preparing, and her gaze subtly changed. The counter was quite a distance from the living room. Maia had her back turned to Rita, so Rita could not see what she was doing.Maia began preparing the tea. She made one cup of tea and half filled it with salt, the temperature of the tea perfectly dissolving the fine salt particles.Then, holding the tea cup, Maia walked back to the li

Chapter 273 You Don’t Deserve Any Mercy

"At your age, you don't even know if you will live to see tomorrow. What if something crucial for the fate of the Larkin family falls into the wrong hands? I am your daughter-in-law and the mother of your grandson. Can't you trust me?""Get out! Leave!" Hans's words echoed as he forcefully banged his cane on the ground. "I don't want to see you at Beverley Manor ever again! Rita, you can try as hard as you want, but I'll never give you what you desire!"Being frail, Hans could not sustain such strong emotions, and Fernando quickly rushed into the gazebo. Maia, sensing the tense situation, quickly followed.Fernando, despite his inner anger, had to remain civil to Rita. He could only politely say, "Ms. Rita, Mr Hans's health is not what it used to be. Why did you upset him so much? Please leave."Rita, determined to get what she wanted, was not about to leave without it."Maia, speak some sense into him. This old man has been stuck in Beverley Manor for so long that he has lost touch wi

Chapter 274 You Keep Me Warm

Maia kicked Rita into the pond. Instantly, water splashed everywhere. Since Rita could not swim, she struggled in the water in an attempt to stay afloat, unknowingly making herself sink faster.Maia watched Rita's miserable state, continuously choking on water, and just coldly smirked. "Rita, compared to what you did to me, what's happening now is nothing. It's just a drop in the ocean."Maia's gaze became even colder. When Rita ran out of strength to struggle, Maia turned her attention to the bodyguards standing aside, hesitant to interfere."You can go and save her now." Leaving Rita to die here would be letting her off too easily. Besides, if she died where Hans was recuperating, it would be disrespectful, not to mention how it would ruin the picturesque pavilion. The bodyguard immediately jumped into the water and quickly pulled Rita out. Rita was completely drenched. She comically resembled a drowned rat, but she was mostly unharmed, despite being exhausted by what she had

Chapter 275 It’s Safer In Your Hands

In the past, when she was at her most helpless, it was Hans who extended his hand to help her. Now, it was her turn to repay the kindness."Well, well." Hans, his body supported by a cane, trembled slightly from excitement. Fernando, watching Maia, also nodded in approval.Hans beckoned to Maia. "My girl, come here, help me inside."Maia quickly approached, supporting Hans. Following that, Hans instructed Fernando, "Fernando, tidy up the pavilion, disinfect everywhere Rita sat, and open the pond valve. I don't want her germs contaminating my beautiful pond.""Yes, sir," Fernando responded promptly, immediately attending to the tasks.Maia continued to assist Hans towards the living room. "My girl, come upstairs with me," Hans said, beckoning Maia and pressing the elevator button. Feeling the gravity in Hans's tone, Maia knew he must have something important to discuss with her. She swiftly followed Hans into the elevator.Upon reaching the second floor, Maia accompanied Hans in

Chapter 276 Does Cedric Know?

It was plain to see that Hans had made up his mind to give Maia his jade tablet.“I can’t take it.” She shook her head repeatedly, but Hans was adamant about it. He tossed aside his walking stick and got ready to kneel. How could she let him do that? Maia stopped Hans and said worryingly, “What are you doing, Grandpa? You can’t kneel before me. Please, get up!” She quickly held his arms.“I’ll kneel until you agree to keep it, Maia!” Hans knew she had a soft spot for him. “Do me a favor, Maia. The way you carry yourself as the CEO of Starlight Entertainment and the way you handled Rita tells me you’re best suited to safe-keep this jade tablet. “I have no idea what came between you and Cedric, but I’m asking you to do this favor for me, not him. Are you going to turn me down?”Maia looked at the valuable jade tablet in her hands and fell silent. Hans was a cunning man through and through. If it had not been for his old age and memory issues, he would have easily run rings aroun

Chapter 277 Don't Wake Her Up

“My sincerest apologies on behalf of Mr. Hans. I’m sorry for the damage he caused.” Fernando bowed to Maia in remorse. “Please forgive him, Ms. Maia.”It was meaningless to point fingers now. If she looked at the whole thing from Hans’s perspective, he had done nothing wrong. Whatever happened went down because of bad luck and the fact that his memory was jumbled up. “I’ll be going home now, Fernando.” She nodded at him and walked toward her car. The wind blew past her and tousled her long hair. With the small leaf rosewood box in her hands, Maia’s brow furrowed. It turned out Cedric had not known that someone drugged her cup of tea. He actually tried to stop her, but she went ahead and blamed him instead. Maia cast her mind back to the morning when she poked at his chest with a knife and drove the knife in slightly. Cedric did not try to explain the situation. He didn’t even flinch. Instead, he leaned in closer and drove the knife deeper into his chest."Whatever you want, a

Chapter 278 I Was Winning Your Heart

Hope smiled and greeted her fellow celebrities in first class after she got on the plane. Then, she swept her eyes across the cabin, searching for Maia. “Who are you looking for, Hope?” Wesley asked. “Hurry up and sit down. I’m going to business class with your assistant now.”“Wait a minute, Wesley.” Hope stopped him and asked, “Have you seen my sister?”He shook his head, “I didn’t see Ms. Maia.”“Isn’t this a private plane booked by The Horizon Awards organizers? Maia is a special guest. She should’ve been on the plane with us!” Hope was confused. Jennifer stood up and whispered, “Don’t you know what happened, Hope?”“What do you mean?” Hope looked at her puzzlingly. Jennifer said softly, “Mr. Cedric’s here too.”“Huh?” Hope said shockingly.“Don’t you think this plane has fewer first-class seats? In fact, it’s narrower.” That was when Hope realized she was right. Then, Jennifer pointed to a sliding door and said, “I saw Cedric carrying Maia inside earlier.”Hope followed

Chapter 279 Tell Me You Miss Me Too

Maia gritted her teeth and asked, “Can’t you get up by yourself?”“I fell because of you.” That was true. Maia could not deny that. She pursed her lips and helped him up after a long pause. The next moment, he held her arm and got up swiftly. He pulled and yanked her into his chest, holding her in his embrace tightly. Maia caught the scent of cigarettes off of him. Her face reddened instantly.“Let me go, Cedric. What do you think you’re…”“I missed you dearly.” He cut her off with a seductive voice. There was no need to give her a long explanation. Maia blushed. “L-Let me go…”“Could you tell me a lie?” His voice was deep and he sounded lonely. Maia did not understand what he meant.“Tell me you miss me too.” Even a lie was better than nothing. She could feel his sorrow. Bereft of his usual arrogance and condescension, Cedric was looking at her with the eyes of a little boy who had been hurt.Her heart soared.Tried as she may have been, Maia could not deny the influence he

Chapter 280 Maya Island?

“Acting cute isn’t going to help you. I’m still going to teach you a lesson if you leave The Horizon Awards empty-handed!”Hope held her head and said playfully, “Please forgive me, Maia. I won’t tease you anymore. I swear!”Jennifer, who was sitting behind them, covered her mouth and smiled. Hope saw it and said, “Maia’s going to teach you a lesson too if you don’t bag the Best Supporting Actress award, Jennifer!” Hope and Jennifer had acted in the same television drama. They had been close to each other since then.Hope turned to Maia and asked, “Am I right, Maia?”“Not at all!” Maia poked at her head again, “Jennifer did well enough by getting nominated, regardless of the result.”“Absolutely true. You said it, Ms. Maia!” Jennifer nodded, “I’m greatly inspired by the fact that I’m nominated. I’ll keep pushing myself in the future!”“I can’t believe you’re taking her side, Maia… You should’ve stood up for me!”Maia smiled, “I have to remain impartial.”Hope put on a pitiful
