Chapter 195 Following My Heart
Cedric’s lips slightly curled up. “Revealing your true businesswoman colors?”
Maia glanced at him and said, “If someone ruins your cooperation, then it’s probably not as simple. We’re equal in this sense....”
Both being business people, naturally, they shared the same mindset!
Cedric laughed devilishly. He reached out, holding Maia, and kissed her lips.
“Cedric! Mm!” Maia widened her eyes, staring at the handsome face. She forcefully bit his
lips, then pushed him away.
“Cedric, you’ve violated our agreement again. What do you think you’re doing?”
“You said it, we’re equal.”
“What?” Maia looked at him in confusion. He chuckled lightly. “Businessman’s true... colors.”
“You jerk!” Maia didn’t mince words.
He laughed indulgently, wiping away the blood on his thin lips with his fingertips.
“Cedric, you know that now is a critical moment. I have to be involved with you to lure Aunt Tess out of her hole. So, you act
recklessly, completely ignoring that contract. But as a businessman, don’t you have a bit of a contract spirit in your business
dealings?”
Cedric laughed, reaching out to tuck her messy hair behind her ear.

Then, with an extremely indulgent tone, he said, “There’s no shortage of people who wanted to establish a relationship with HL
Corporation.”
“Does that give you the right to misuse your power and advantages to violate contracts recklessly?”
“As long as the other party stays in line, I always abide by it. You know this better than anyone. else.”
As a businessman, he had an identity earlier than Maia, so he naturally understood the spirit of a contract. Maia pursed her lips,
forced to admit that what Cedric said was correct.

In the business world, Cedric always kept his word. But once the other party did something out of line, he would make the
contract null and void.
Before Maia could speak, he leaned down, exhaling warm breath in her ear, saying, “Love is not a piece of paper. Kissing you is
following my heart.”
Love couldn’t be regulated by a contract, the overwhelming love inside him was beyond

Maia’s heart pounded irregularly. She never expected such words to come from him. This pinnacle of excellence, who deemed
even saying “love” a luxury, was now saying such cheesy things.
Trying to steady her emotions, Maia replied indifferently, “I should’ve known. To Cedric, that contract is just a decoration–a child’s
playacting in his eyes. But didn’t he notice the final clause in the contract?

“Violating it means surrendering 20 percent of the financial conglomerate shares to the other party, and he has violated it multiple
times...”
“Tomorrow, the share transfer document will be delivered to you.”
“What?” Maia was astonished at how straightforward he was.
No one understood better than him what 20 percent of the shares meant in the HL Corporation. It was a blatant extortion, yet he
agreed?
This lunatic!
“As long as you say the word, I’ll lay all my wealth at your feet.” He smiled at her, still indulgent. “What’s mine is yours.”
His repeated words struck her repeatedly, thawing her resolve. Maia was afraid of falling. She looked out the window, trying to
calm herself.
Silence suddenly settled in the car. After a moment, Maia looked at him, revealing a playful smile.
Once again, she spoke, “Sweet words are meant to deceive children. How can adults be fooled with them? Cedric, where did
you learn such cheesy pick–up lines? It’s so outdated. Next time, come up with something more . Who knows, I might find it

interesting.”
Her words were cutting. As a pinnacle of excellence, a man born with a silver spoon, standing atop the pyramid made him
invincible. A mere glance from him could make people retreat. Yet now, he was repeatedly wounded by Maia.
Even though he maintained a calm expression, there was still a brief change in his profound gaze.Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

“Honey, you are right.”
Maia hadn’t expected him to respond this way, yet he still sounded indulgent. This indulgence caused her heart to tremble. She
had never expected him to put himself in such a low position. for her, as if he were the one she had been, fallen to the dust.
He was Cedric. The man who could make people have nowhere to be buried with just a flick of his fingers.

The atmosphere inside the cat remained silent for an unknown duration. Suddenly, Maia’s phone rang...
It was a video call from Errol. Mala answered the call, and as soon as the video connected, before she could say anything, Errol
appeared, looking worried and frantically gesturing. “sis, can you reach Celia? I haven’t been able to reach her for several days.
She went to the mountains to shoot a fantasy drama, and a few days ago, she told me the signal was bad! I didn’t think much of
it at first, but it’s been days since I last heard from her!”
Maia was momentarily stunned. She knew Celia’s schedule. Indeed, there was a fantasy drama currently in production, and
Celia was the lead actress.
Seeing Maia’s puzzled expression, Errol gestured again, “Sis, you must’ve forgotten who Celia is! Is Cedric with you? Please ask
him for help!”
Maia nodded and turned to Cedric beside her, saying, “Errol is asking about Celia. He said Celia went to the mountains to shoot
a fantasy drama, but he hasn’t been able to contact her for several days. And we don’t know the current situation.”
Cedric looked at Errol on the phone and then replied calmly. “I will send someone to investigate.”
Errol nodded. “Thank you, Cedric, thank you! I’m really worried about Celia.”
Maia quickly conveyed Errol’s messages to Cedric. He nodded slightly and then dialed a number on his phone.
For some reason, Maia felt that something was off. If Celia hadn’t been in touch for a few days, where were her manager and
assistant? Why was there no news at all?
After about five minutes, Cedric’s phone rang, and he received news about Celia.
