Maia coughed lightly as she did so. Cedric was quite a difficult man to please. “Alright, I’m done.”“Are you trying to fool me again?” Cedric embraced her tightly.Maia shook her head. “You’re the one who wanted me to change it. How could I fool you again?” Maia whined in dissatisfaction. Looking at her unhappy face, Cedric could finally understand why Starlight Entertainment was one of the top entertainment companies in the industry. Even the CEO’s acting skills were amazing. He pinched her chin lightly and told her. “My flight is in three hours.”Maia was surprised by his words as she held his hand tightly. “Why are you leaving again? Didn’t you just come back? Where are you going?” “I’m going back to Nordic City.”“Why? Did something happen again?” Cedric glanced at her worried face as he pointed at the caller ID on her phone. “Don’t you want to add more to it?”Maia’s gaze followed what he was pointing at. She quickly took her phone and changed the ID to ‘My Dearest
“Yes, well done.” Cedric praised.“Since I’ve done such a good job, why don’t you let me send you off at the airport? You’ve already stopped me from going to Nordic City. You can’t stop me from going to the airport with you as well, right?” Maia smiled pleadingly. Cedric smiled at her cheekiness. She had a plan after all. “What if I said no?”"Then I’ll be really angry. It’s not a good thing to make me angry.” Maia placed one of her hands under her chin and stared intimidatingly at Cedric. Though her eyes were still shining from being in a good mood.. “As long as I’m the only one for you!” He pinched her cheeks lightly as he threatened. Fortunately, Maia was not afraid of him. She held his hand in hers as she continued to convince him, “Will you let me go with you? Please.” Cedric glanced at her enlarged tummy and frowned slightly. The airport was quite a distance from Prismara Hill. “Must you come?” Maia nodded. “Yes! Can’t I just send you off?”He took her hand and kisse
“Isn’t it a husband’s duty to help carry his wife’s bag? Cedric doted on Maia very much. I’ll bet he’s more than willing to carry her all the way there, much less her bag.”“Cedric is just fantastic. Goodness. There are no words to describe how wonderful he is. He easily outmatches all of the male celebrities! Sheesh. Is he about six foot two?”“Oh, my. How does Maia still have such a darling figure with the whole pregnancy deal? Her beauty is out of this world!”“This makes it worth taking the flight! I can’t believe I saw the warring couple with my own eyes!”…Cedric and Maia’s appearances attracted too much attention. Fischer walked swiftly to them.“The private plane is ready, Mr. Cedric.”Cedric nodded and looked at Maia, who was by his side. “I’ll contact you again once I touch down.”She was stunned for a while before she took his hand hastily. It was hard for her to let go once her hands touched his. He was heartbroken to see her this way.Pinching her chin lightly, h
Maia felt helpless. Fights over resources and screen time weren’t anything new, but she never thought Emily’s fans would be this radical.Since when was ‘Stygian Nation’s plot revolved around its female lead?That completely stunned her. She was the owner of Starlight Entertainment. So, why hadn’t she known about it if it was true?“Contact Emily’s team and ask them to correct the fans. Don’t stir up trouble unnecessarily. Tell the public relations department to give Emily’s fans an explanation. We’ll release a detailed briefing about the resources and screen time.”“Roger, Ms. Maia. I’m on it.”She hung up the phone and passed it back to Fischer.“Drive to the gallery.”She checked the time and thought Nancy was probably with Spencer now. Nancy was the original author. Coming from her, it’d sound more convincing that ‘Stygian Nation’ didn’t revolve its plot around the female lead. On her way there, she checked the discussions on the internet. Her Twitter account was flooded w
Nancy was stunned for a few seconds at what Maia said. Then, her eyes widened as she said, “I had just barely written a million words on the book, Maia. Are you going for the adaptation rights already?”“I’m just thinking ahead,” Maia responded with a smile.Nancy stifled laughter and said again, “My father’s going to start crying if you took this novel’s adaptation rights away too…”“I’m sure your father cried countless times when you decided to stay at Spencer’s place. It’s no big deal if he cries once more.”“Hahaha!” That made Nancy burst out laughing.Not long after, Nancy released her video that debunked the claim that ‘Stygian Nation’ revolved its plot around the female lead. Starlight Entertainment quickly retweeted her post. Then, the other major marketing accounts retweeted it, too.However, the netizens no longer cared about the resources and screen time for the actors of the ‘Stygian Nation.’ Instead, they were interested in the fact that Maia wanted to take the adapt
Maia felt a little embarrassed with the way Nancy praised her. She simply flashed her a smile.Nancy finally knew how it felt to be floored by absolute beauty! It overwhelmed her! “It’s such a shame that you didn’t debut as an artist, Maia. The entire entertainment industry is robbed of a spectacular actress!”Maia felt embarrassed again. There was the king of jealousy in her house that she needed to think about. Debut as an actress? He’d most probably die from the sheer amount of jealousy he had to endure!…Maia headed to Starlight Entertainment after she left the gallery. She had just reached the floor where her office was and saw the people in the guest room through the glass. It was Aiken and Victoria.Ever since their relationship became public, Aiken had been bringing Victoria with him to Starlight Entertainment. After all, he knew and trusted everyone in the company. He had nothing to worry about and decided to show off his beautiful girlfriend from time to time.Victor
Aiken feigned upset and said, “My heart is pounding like crazy from the shock. Just let me kiss you, Vicky.” His tone was as pitiable as it got.Victoria patted his hands, “Be serious.”“Alrighty.” Aiken let her go and stood upright like a good boy scout.They were so intimate with each other. If any of Aiken’s fans saw them, they would’ve cried their eyes out. “I came because I designed a few maternity wear. They’re for you.” Victoria signaled for Aiken to bring over the few bags of clothes.“Is that all for me?” She was shocked. “Yeah. Cedric told me to prepare it.”“He did?” Startled, she asked.Victoria nodded and said with a smile, “He called me himself, too.”“What did he say?” She asked hastily.“He said he wanted his wife to be the most beautiful pregnant lady in the world.” Victoria covered her mouth and smiled. “I guess I’ve done what I came here to do. I’ll need to use your guest room.”“The guest room?” She was confused.Victoria was a little embarrassed and s
Sally stood up and sided with Eddie as she did not want to file for a divorce. “How could you be so superstitious just because of something a priest had said?” Sally immediately walked toward Eddie’s side. She was trying to tell him that she wanted to take his side and help him handle those difficult relatives. Unfortunately, Eddie did not need it. He even felt repulsed by her gesture as he wheeled his chair away from her. At that moment, Sally could feel that everyone around her was looking at her mockingly. Andrew had even openly insulted her. “You’re just a woman that I had played with. Who gave you the right to even attend our family meeting?” Everyone in the room continued to laugh mockingly at Sally when they heard what Andrew had said. Sally thought that Eddie would at least help her based on the fact that she was Amanda’s sister and his wife of many years.Sadly, she was wrong. Eddie did not even look at her nor allowed her to try to reap any benefits from the Fox family
