Will You Marry Me, Again? のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 31 - チャプター 40

This was the only thing he had given her, and now it had been returned to him. "Thanks." Taking the music box carefully, Cedric nodded at Errol and walked away. He brought it straight to her memorial.When it opened, a melodic tune began to play. Inside the box were several photos of the Northern Lights. He remembered what she said the other day. "People say our wishes would come true if we wished upon the aurora, but we can’t grow old together now that we're divorced."Letting out a bitter smile, he tried to put a photo back into the box. However, something on its back caught his attention. Written on it was a message in her handwriting: "How I wish you could see this, Cedric."She spent the so-called honeymoon alone in Frostholm, but when she saw the Northern Lights, the first person that came to her mind was him. 'What the hell have you done over all these years?' he reflected. 'It was you who killed her!'Holding the music box between his arms, he gazed at her pho

Maia could not help but be nervous while trapped with him alone.Even after a year, she had to admit that the man still had power over her. However, she would no longer give in to her feelings. She quickly composed herself and smiled.“What should I explain? Yes, I made it out alive, but you know that you're the reason why I was trapped and nearly died in the fire."Cedric smiled. "You've become so argumentative now, haven't you?""I won't let anyone push me around anymore." She was no longer her former self. "Who dares to mess with you with me around?"Maia snorted. "So says the man who does.""Oh, yeah?" He leaned in and said in a deep voice, "You know I have to."The elevator dinged, and its doors opened. Cedric scooped Maia up."What the hell are you doing, Cedric? Let me go!" Maia struggled. He narrowed his eyes. "I intend to make you pay for deceiving me." He wanted her to pay the price for the rest of her life. Before Maia could respond, he kicked open a door to

Cedric chuckled. "It worked, didn't it?"Baz understood now. "Well, Ms. Maia becoming the new CEO is indeed more newsworthy than Mr. Errol being deaf."Cedric smirked. "Something even more newsworthy will be trending shortly."Soon enough, the topic of Cedric liking the post began to trend, becoming the top trending topic in just a few minutes. He liked the post on purpose to generate more buzz. After all, nothing was more appealing than gossip.Cedric smiled and picked up his document folder. Suddenly, Baz's phone rang, and he quickly answered it. "What? Susie’s dead?"Cedric’s face froze. Susie had been the woman in charge of Maia's meals when the fire broke out.After he hung up, Baz said, "Sir, our men found Susie dead at her rental home. The police said it could be suicide." Cedric snorted. "Seems more like murder to me." He snapped his folder closed in frustration. They had been searching for Susie for six months, and now this! As Baz had been put in charge of fin

Errol threw open the door, turned on the light, and quickly looked around.A small speaker and a charger seemed to have fallen onto the floor. Apart from that, nothing seemed unusual about the room. Not seeing Cedric, Maia was relieved. "I told you something must have fallen." Errol still felt that something was off but didn't dwell on it. "You’re lucky that it wasn’t a burglar. You could’ve been in danger." "Errol’s right. It's not safe to live all by yourself nowadays. Why don't you move in with me?""It's okay, Aunt Tess, the security at Cloud Nine is top-notch. I'll be fine." Maia knew that no thieves could break into her apartment… just her ex-husband. She didn't want them to know he was there, or they might get the wrong idea. Maia closed the bedroom door and saw Tess and Errol off. After telling her again to be careful, they finally left. When the door was finally closed, Maia let out a huge sigh of relief. Just as she turned around, Cedric suddenly appeared an

Alarmed by what she said, Mr. Linden tightened his fists. Knowing he was beginning to have second thoughts, Maia said, "I know you have a son and a daughter. You don't want them to have to live with the consequences of your actions, do you? You deserve to go to jail, but your family members are innocent." At this moment, Buck lunged over and pulled Mr. Lindon up by his collar. Glaring at the man, he snapped, "Do not test our patience, Mr. Linden!"Shocked by his loud voice, Mr. Linden trembled and gulped, not daring to look at him. A moment later, Mr. Linden's tensed body went limp as he gave up resisting. "All right…"Trembling, Mr. Linden continued, "After Phil took over Starlight Entertainment, he fired the finance manager and promoted me in his place so that he could do whatever he wanted with the company's money. Under his leadership, Starlight then lost its leading position in the industry within a year."Mr. Linden sighed. "Three months ago, when Mr. Phil learned th
