Maia nodded in agreement when she heard Cedric’s analysis. “You’re right. He’s already a madman. Moreover, he was able to survive this incident. He would do anything to obtain power, wealth and to seek revenge.” Maia could not help but worry about their safety. She did not know where Errol was hiding, but for some reason, she could feel him close by. Maia grasped the edge of the blouse tightly as she thought of him.Cedric could see that she was afraid, so he quickly comforted her. “Don’t worry, I’m here with you.” She looked at Cedric with worried eyes. “You have to promise not to sacrifice yourself for me. Even if I was in danger!”She could still recall how he had risked everything for her, even his own life. Maia could not forget how helpless she felt when she thought he was dead. Cedric could sense her uneasiness as he smiled helplessly. “Maia, do you still remember what you did back at Nordic City? During that windy day?” Maia laughed as she recalled her ‘heroic’ deed.

The younger secretary looked at Paige playfully and asked, “Paige, are you interested as well?” Paige glanced at her and poked her forehead gently. “It’s fine if you don’t tell me. The reports that you were supposed to prepare by next week were rescheduled to be finished by tomorrow. I was planning to help you, but it seems like you don’t need my help anymore.”When the younger secretary heard Paige’s comment, she immediately hugged Paige’s arm and pleaded. “No, wait. I haven’t finished half of my work. You need to help me, please. I’ll tell you what our conclusion is. We think that Mr. Cedric cheated on Ms. Maia.”“What?” Paige asked in disbelief.“That’s the most likely outcome. We guessed that Mr. Cedric had regretted his behavior, so he came begging for Ms. Maia’s forgiveness. His actions had touched Ms. Maia, so she decided to give him a second chance.”Paige just sighed as she heard them. “Do you think Ms. Maia would forgive a man who has cheated on her?” The younger secr

“Yeah, you’re right. I have him, and I know he’ll always protect me. I’m not scared of anything as long as I have him.” Maia trusted him with all her heart, and she smiled as she responded to Hope, but her eyes were trained on Cedric.She said that, but she wanted him to be safe too. He needed to take care of himself. She didn’t want to see him doing ruthless things and risking his life for her sake anymore.Then she looked at Homer, who was lying on the bed in the ICU. She was going through a variety of emotions when she looked at him.She had waited for her father to love her for a long time. This was the same man who she had hated.Now, however…If he saw the swapped DNA test report, he must’ve thought he was fooled and manipulated by her and her mother. Perhaps that was why he hated both of them so much.Looking at Homer, she said softly, “Why? Why wouldn’t you trust me? She’s your wife, after all…”…Homer slowly regained consciousness after she said what she said. He wa

Sometimes, all it took was a little time before the public opinion swung the other way. Maia scrolled through the comments, which were already turning around and taking a different direction, and checked the time. The Egoist was bound to do something by now.Then, it happened as she predicted!A few minutes later, The Egoist released an official announcement, clarifying that Leonardo had to turn down the offer because it clashed with his schedule. They also stated that they were deeply sorry about it.Reading their high-sounding post, she chuckled. She couldn’t help but think that it looked familiar. Then she scrolled down, and the top comment popped up. It had six thousand likes.“All The Egoist ever does is explain its actions! How shameless are you guys? We’re Leonardo’s fans, and we’re genuinely concerned about his career. I can’t believe you guys turned down ‘The Gorgeous Detective’ and shoved him in your own web series. “How could you throw away a male lead role for him and

Now, however, she was wearing a bright smile on her face and tugging his shirt boldly. Cedric’s smile deepened. He grabbed her hand and said firmly, “I wouldn’t have it any other way.” That was sweeter than anything he had ever said.It brought a smile to Maia’s face. It was a beautiful, sweet smile that made her look all the more charming.Her otherworldly beauty was enough to mesmerize him to the point of giving up everything for her.…Three minutes later, Maia was finally eating her breakfast under Cedric’s watchful gaze. Then, she remembered something and handed Cedric the invitation from Nordic College.“This came in the morning. Nordic College was celebrating its hundredth anniversary and it’s inviting us.”“Yeah. I’m aware of it.” He took the invitation from her hand.“Do you know about it already? How about I guess who told you?” She took a bite out of the omelet and asked, “Is it Eddie?”“Clever girl.”She would take every compliment he threw her way gladly.Then,
