Will You Marry Me, Again? Chapter 13 Can't Bear to Put Them On
"I couldn’t bear to," she softly replied, leaving the gloves in the foyer. She then headed cheerfully toward the kitchen."What would you like to eat? How about beef stew? It's perfect for the weather today.""Okay," Cedric agreed.With a sweet smile, Maia hurried into the kitchen to get prepared. The servants were surprised to see her, given her recent divorce from Cedric. They could not fathom why he was being friendlier toward her now. Some of them quickly informed Judy, a maid known to be Rita's spy.Judy hurried into the main hall. Seeing Maia busy cooking in the kitchen, she marched over to the sofa, where Cedric browsed documents on his tablet. "Sir," she called out. "Yes?" Cedric's gaze remained on the screen."There's something I have to tell you, but I'm not sure if I should.""Then don't.""But if I don't, Mrs. Rita will blame me, sir,” Judy said. "Why have you brought Ms. Maia here? If the paparazzi catch wind of it, your reputation might suffer since you're di
Will You Marry Me, Again? Chapter 14 Do You Regret It?
"It's up to you." Maia went to the wine cabinet and retrieved a bottle, but she struggled to use the corkscrew. She couldn’t quite turn the handles, and her face flushed due to the exertion.Seeing this, Cedric got up and walked toward the bar counter. "Go sit. I'll open it in just a second," Maia said as she continued to struggle with the corkscrew. Cedric held her hand from behind her and pressed the handles, effortlessly removing the cork. He chuckled. Surprised, Maia looked over her shoulder at him. His handsome face was no longer tense and fierce. She had never seen him like this. "What are you laughing at?" she said in her melodic voice. "It was kind of cute,” he replied as he went to the dining hall.Dazed, Maia stared at the cork. 'Kind of cute? Was he talking about me?'Her heart pounded as if her love for him had rekindled. "What are you standing there for?" Cedric’s smile was fading into a cold expression.Catching herself, Maia quickly said, "I'll get
Will You Marry Me, Again? Chapter 15 Don’t Ever Love Me Again
Maia froze for a moment. Then she looked up at him and shook her head with a smile. "No, I don't regret it. As you know, marrying you has always been my dream. It may seem unfair that my mother worked with your grandpa to force you to marry me, but I wasn’t aware of it until later." Maia then said, "Anyway, it doesn't matter anymore, does it?""The reason?" he asked. "Huh?" Maia looked at him, puzzled. "Why did you insist on marrying me?" He thought there must be a reason.Maia fell silent.When Rosa was still alive, she was a legendary businesswoman in charge of Burgess Winery and Starlight Entertainment. For that reason, many men wanted to marry Maia. However, she only had eyes for Cedric and always followed him wherever he went. She always smiled at him even if he was highly annoyed with her. Before Maia could speak, Cedric added, "Don't tell me it's love, okay? We hardly knew each other back then." As Maia gazed at him, she recalled the memory of when she was 12 an
Will You Marry Me, Again? Chapter 16 Not Wanting to Let Go
She could no longer fight back her tears when she felt his body heat. Holding him close, she leaned against his chest and listened to his steady heartbeat. She murmured, "Wouldn't it be nice if I could also forget about you?'Cedric frowned as an unusual feeling swept through him. He couldn't help but hold his arms tighter around her petite frame, and for a moment, he did not want to let go. "Shit!" he cursed under his breath. Just as he was about to let her go, the phone on the table rang. The caller ID showed that it was Zera. Maia pursed her lips and gently pulled away. The second Cedric answered the call, Zera's frantic voice came through. "Cedric, Mom's been kidnapped!"His gaze turned sharp. "What?"Zera sobbed, "We were supposed to go to the Hot Spring Resort today, but I had to attend an event at the last minute, so she went there first. Then the police called me and said she was abducted by several men on her way there!"Suddenly, Zera screamed, "What the hell is
Will You Marry Me, Again? Chapter 17 The Lost Memories
"Thank you, Nigel. I understand." After that day, she and Cedric would go their separate ways and never meet again. "It's late. Get some rest, okay?" Nigel said. "Okay, you too. Goodnight." The call ended, and Maia noted that it was almost midnight. Her wedding anniversary was coming to an end. She cleared the table, washed the dishes, and prepared to leave."Oh, Ms. Maia, why didn't you say you were leaving?" July mocked Maia when she saw her in the foyer."Why? Must I report to you?" Maia looked over her shoulder at her with a smile. Judy lashed out. "Mr. Cedric doesn't even love you, okay? Serves you right for getting dumped!" "At least I don't have to fawn over rich people like you do." Maia opened the door, and a gush of wind rushed in with the snow. She shivered. As the wind howled, she could vaguely hear Judy say maliciously, "No men would want you, you dumb bitch!"Maia slammed the door shut with a frown, cutting off the rest of Judy's harsh words. Her warm t
Will You Marry Me, Again? Chapter 18 Kidnapped
Cedric looked at Baz, who had arrived ahead of him. "Bring it here!" "Yes, sir." Baz picked up the cardboard box and marched over. "Open it."Baz nodded. He removed the lid, revealing a voodoo doll written with Rita's name.Zera let out a horrified scream and hid behind Cedric. "See? Someone's putting a curse on Mom! And there's a familiar scent, but I can't remember where I smelled it before."Cedric gave Baz a look.Baz nodded and sniffed the faint fragrance on the doll. "It smells like perfume." Zera suddenly exclaimed, "Oh, I remember now. Maia always wore this perfume. Cedric, you smell the same. W-Were you with her just now?"With a frown, Cedric took the voodoo doll and sniffed it. It was indeed the perfume Maia always wore. "Maia must be behind this! She thinks mom caused her child's death, so she planned for the kidnapping! I'll go find her!" Zera had a sudden realization on her face and hurried toward the door. "Stop her!" At Cedric's command, Baz and others qu
Will You Marry Me, Again? Chapter 19 Where Is She?
Judy's voice came through on the phone. "Ms. Maia left before daybreak, sir. I tried to persuade her to wait until the snowstorm stopped, but she seemed in a hurry and told me to mind my own business."Cedric frowned. As soon as he hung up, Zera spoke again. "So you were really with Maia…" She lowered her gaze and murmured, "She must have gone to see you on purpose so you wouldn’t suspect her."She grew more anxious as she continued, "This way, she’d have an alibi. Mom's kidnappers would never say she did it if she paid them off or threatened their families. She knew she’d never be charged! Oh, my God, how could she be so evil?"Zera frantically paced in circles. "I wonder how Mom is now…"Suddenly, a loud crash was heard as Cedric smashed his phone to pieces. He looked terrifying as he said, "Find out where Maia is."Baz nodded. "Yes, sir!"...It was still snowing that morning. Maia trudged through the thick layer of snow to arrive at Burgess Winery.Suddenly, a whistle c
Will You Marry Me, Again? Chapter 20 He's Here
Maia smiled again. "I know you won't."Errol looked worried as he gestured, "Maia, when you're back in Solisar, you must watch out for those assholes." Now that their mother was no longer around to keep the elders in check, things had become even more complicated in Starlight Entertainment than in the winery.Maia nodded with a smile. “What are you two talking about so early in the morning?""Good morning, Nigel. Are you here to pick up my sister?" Errol greeted Nigel through sign language."Yeah, the flight is at 8 a.m. We better get going."Errol nodded. "Please take care of my sister."Nigel made an okay sign. "You know I will."“Give it your all, Nigel. She's single now." Nigel shook his head with a laugh and said to Maia, "Kids nowadays."Maia only let out a faint smile. "Get in the car. We're running late. You didn't pack anything?" Nigel saw Maia had no luggage. Maia nodded. She assumed the Larkins had thrown her stuff away when they divorced, so she did not
