《Will You Marry Me, Again?》全部章節：第 521 章 - 第 530 章

“Mom…” Eddie was a little nervous now. Lauren waved her hand at him calmly and said, “I have to bear the consequences of my actions alone.”Eddie looked at Cedric and said, “Cedric, Mom did do a lot of horrible things, but she did it to avenge her son who she thought had died. She didn’t know you were alive. “It’s only natural for a mother to want to take revenge on her child’s behalf. I know her actions were heartless, but you have to understand how it was for her.”Maia pursed her lips. She clenched her hands tighter as she listened in on the conversation downstairs. She, too, was waiting for Cedric’s answer. She wanted to see if he would take the step toward reconciliation.Lauren might have done countless wicked things, but she did all of it because of the intense hatred she felt from losing her son in the past. It reminded Maia of the moment when Rita pushed her off the building and made her lose her unborn baby.The pain was so crushing that she still remembered it vivi

Cedric nodded slightly. Their guesses were pretty close to the truth. Then, he spoke with his cold voice, “So, Sally imitated what Lauren had done before. She used someone else to try to kill Grandpa and framed Lauren for it to clear her own name.”Maia nodded. “Did she jump through all these hoops just to make it look like she wasn't involved? It makes sense. That way, no one would suspect her. Moreover, Ralph wouldn’t dream of ratting her out. After all, Freddy spent most of his time in casinos. That meant Sally owned him. She thought about everything but she could never know that Ralph would be this foolish…”Biting her lips, she cast her mind back to when she first saw Sally. She had dimples in her cheeks, so her smile was extraordinarily sweet. No one would’ve guessed she was actually a wicked, scheming lady.There were two reasons she did what she did. Firstly, she could aggravate the relationship between Cedric and Lauren, causing him to hate her to the bone. Secondly,

“I cannot imagine how she must have felt when she had to witness her son being taken as a hostage and to awake to the news that his kidnappers had killed him. If it had been me, I would probably go mad and do anything in my power to seek revenge on those who had harmed him!” Maia said as she placed her hand on her tummy. “I could never forget the pain I had felt when I was pushed down the stairs by Rita. The pain of losing my child was so hard to bear. I’m sure Lauren must have been in despair as well.” “I’m sorry. I failed to protect you.” Cedric immediately pulled Maia into his arms when he heard her recalling this nightmare. He was the cause of all her sufferings in the past. Maia smiled and replied, “Yup, it was all your fault. You shouldn’t have forgotten about me. However, you lost your memory because of me. I shouldn’t be too hard on you either.”Maia took his hand in hers and placed it on her cheek. “I’m glad to be able to come back to you. I have no regrets at all. I’

His kiss was assertive, as if trying to declare to the world that she belongs to him. He looked at Maia with hungry eyes and it made Maia’s cheeks flushed a crimson red. “M-my back is fine now. You should go back to your meeting. We can’t have them think that the company is not as important to you.”“Since when have I placed the company above you? You’re all that I need.” Maia felt weak in her knees as her cheeks grew warmer. She was not sure if this was from his kiss or having to sit in the same position for 5 hours. “It’s my fault for making you sit in the meeting for such a long time.” Cedric apologized as he placed his chin on her head taking in the scent of her shampoo.Maia shook her head. “It’s not your fault. I’ve had long meetings like this too. I'm just tired because of the baby.” Maia stroked her tummy gently. Cedric placed his hands on her tummy too. “It’s still my fault.” Maia moved away from him as she was ticklish. “How is this also your fault?”He smirked a

She could not just sit and watch while the Giles family took advantage of Marcus! She needed to do something to stop this! How could she let Marcus know that Christine already has a child and a boyfriend?What if Marcus asked why Maia was digging into the Tate and the Giles’s businesses? How could she answer that? After all, the reason she did this was to force Christine to give her the rights to The Gorgeous Detective. This matter was too complicated, and she did not know how to even start to explain it all to Marcus. It seemed like she had to think of another way to expose Christine’s secret. Just as she was plotting her next step, Maia’s cell phone rang. It was Marcus! “Hello, Marcus.” Cedric walked into the room the moment Maia answered the call. Her hand on her phone went stiff as she cursed the timing of the call.Cedric came toward her with a stoic face and lifted her from the sofa. Maia yelped in surprise as she immediately put her free hand around his neck. She mout
