Chapter 187 Do You Still Need Me?
Cedric just nodded coldly in response.
Maia tried hard to suppress her laughter. “Rita, Cedric means that he doesn’t want to tire you. It’s been a long day for everyone,
you should go home and have a break. Rest assured as long as I’m here, I’ll take good care of Cedric.”
Rita’s expression eased at Maia’s considerate words. “Alright, I feel assured having you look after Cedric, I’ll take my leave,
then.”
Maia smiled and nodded, “Do be careful on your way home.”
“Cedric, you should let Maia know if you need anything. She’s more than capable of taking care of you. You don’t really need me
by your side anymore.”
Cedric could not help but sneered at the irony. When he had sustained severe burns protecting Maia in his teens, she only came
to visit him a handful of times.
She also only came once when he had burnt his back while saving Maia from another fire. Since when had he needed her by his
side? He continued to ignore her as his face remained impassive.
As Rita prepared to leave, she turned to Maia and asked, “Why don’t you come see me off?”
Maia nodded obediently and followed behind her. Cedric instinctively reached out and grabbed her wrist.
“What’s wrong? You don’t even want to let Maia send me off? She’s my daughter–in–law, that’s the least she should do,” Rita
commented.

“Of course, Rita. I’ll send you off,” Maia replied gently. She turned back to Cedric and gave. him a reassuring smile before

removing his hand from her wrist.
At the elevator lobby, Rita grabbed Maia’s arm roughly when she noticed that no one was around them.
“Maia, you listen closely. Don’t think that just because Cedric is on your side, you’ve won! You’re no longer his wife!
He’s just humoring you just because you’ve lost your memory. You should listen to me if you want him to keep you by his side!
Or else I’ll make life difficult for you!”
“I–I understand. I’ll listen to every word you say. I know Cedric is just being kind to keep me by his side.” Maia lowered her head
and replied in a shaky voice.
“Very well. You have to report everything he does and his whereabouts to me. Including who he has seen or what he’s been up
to. Report everything to me. You still remember my number,

“Yes, I do.”
“Well done! Remember what I said.”
Maia nodded timidly.
When the elevator arrived, Rita sneered at Maia and shoved her aside to enter the elevator. Maia could see from the corner of
her eyes that Rita was smiling smugly at herself.
When the elevator’s doors were firmly shut, Maia looked up with a frown as she vowed, ” Don’t worry, I’ll definitely remember
this. One day, I’ll make you pay for everything!”.

When Maia got back to Cedric’s room, she heard a loud collision and some nurses panicking.
“What was that?”
“There was a problem with one of the elevators. It stopped and started descending on its own! Someone is still in there!”

Maia was surprised. She just came back from the elevator lobby. Wait a minute, could it be Rita?
“Are you feeling better now?” Cedric asked.
Maia looked at him in realization as she asked, “Did you do this?”
“That was just a simple warning. After all, she laid her hands on your countless times,” he reasoned.
“Isn’t she your mother?”
“Did she think of me when she kept on hurting you?”
Maia smiled at the irony. “You never protected me in the past, so why now? I don’t need your help anymore.”
“Really? Not even from the boy who saved the girl from the fire?”
His words momentarily stunned her as she looked straight at Cedric, who was still in bed. Maial could not believe her ears.
Before she could react, Cedric had moved toward her.
When Maia felt him next to her, she looked at him in shock. She had a hunch but was not brave enough to question him. Instead,
she mumbled, “Y–You.”

“Yes, I’ve managed to remember everything.” Cedric confirmed her speculations.
Maia went stiff as she heard him admitting it. She continued to look at him and shook her head. Too stunned to even speak.
She could feel tears building up as she thought to herself that he finally remembered. For

Now he was telling her that he had finally remembered. After she had decided to give up and leave him for good. Maia could not
control the tears streaming down her face.
“It’s too late now. Too late,” she whispered.
Cedric could only pull her into his embrace. However, to Mala, his warmth felt like a burden. It used to be something she had
yearned for in the past, but now it just added to her suffering-
She took a deep breath and shoved him away. Her hands pushed against his chest, urging him not to move any closer as she
tried to maintain the distance between them.
