Chapter 132 Cedrick replied slowly yet sternly, “Did you touch my folders in the office this afternoon?”
Maia stopped breathing, her pupils subconsciously constricted. “What folders? I am not sure…”
Cedrick watched her reaction. His handsome face was gloomy. “I am sure you are very clear about one
thing: our engagement stemmed from that fateful night four years ago. If I found out that you had been
lying to me all along…”
“I am not sure what you are talking about.”
Maia’s face turned green as she replied stubbornly, “We have been together for so long, and you do not

commitment between us.”
In other words, there was no love. Maia clenched her fist.
She could not let Cedrick find out about the truth.
He mistook her for another woman four years ago and was always so cold to her. If he found out about
the truth…
She could not imagine what would happen!
Tonight was a business dinner function.
As the vibrant background music played, Catelyn collected several contacts from the influential people in
her industry and had some good conversations. Jamie and the Atherton sisters were here too. Louella
was pregnant, so Jamie was always by her side the whole night. Lola’s hostile gaze fell upon Catelyn.
Cedrick came with Maia, which meant he announced their relationship to the public. Lola was
unsatisfied. She was not comparing herself to Maia but to Catelyn. Maia was the daughter of the core

was Cedrick right from the start? Too bad she had already offended him and was already in his bad

concealed her contempt and replaced it with a light smile. Maia raised her wine glass, swirled it around,
and gestured a toast to Catelyn. Catelyn smiled back in courtesy. = The next moment, Maia smiled as
she went to the podium and whispered something in the hostess’s ears. The hostess then looked to
Catelyn as Maia motioned. Catelyn felt something was wrong. Before she could react, she saw the
hostess grinning as she returned to the center of the stage… Suddenly, the lights went dim, except for
the limelight on the stage. The light was all focused on the hostess, forming a circle around her. She was
holding the mic and greeted everyone with a big smile, “Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the dinner
tonight. Ms. Catelyn Clark would like to entertain everyone with a song tonight. We hope you have a
great night ahead.” “Cough!” Catelyn choked on her wine immediately. She coughed hard that some
wine was spitting out of the corner of her lips. The next moment, the limelight was directed onto Catelyn.
Catelyn then became the focus of the night.
