Chapter 209 Staying Humble for Love
“There’s no need for that because you are already trouble. I don’t need to go looking for more, “Maia said as she returned the
tablet to Cedric.
Taking advantage of his momentary distraction, she quickly freed herself from his grasp kept her distance.
and
Stepping back a few paces, Maia smiled at Cedric. “I appreciate your kindness but don’t want to invite more trouble. You should
find someone else.”
Maia then walked to the elevator. His gaze stayed on her, with a gleam in his eyes–a light that appeared because of her.
“Tomorrow, someone will protect you all the way,” Cedric said.Maia paused for a moment, nodded slightly, and entered the
elevator.
After going upstairs, Maia immediately began to pack her luggage, playing her part in the act. She chose a dress for the charity
event in front of the mirror, planning to select a short dress that wouldn’t cause any trouble.
However, she couldn’t find a suitable and lightweight dress after searching through her options.
“Too short.”
The deep, arrogant voice sounded outside the dressing room. Maia turned around, looking at him leaning against the door
frame. His sharp eyes gleamed with a fierce light as if he could bore a hole into the dress she held.
“I think it’s great. The length of this black leather skirt is just right, and it doesn’t hinder my movement,” Maia replied calmly.
“Too revealing.”
Cedric looked at the entire back design, which left her back exposed. His eyebrows tightened, clearly dissatisfied with the short
and revealing dress.
Maia remained silent, placing the dress in the suitcase, completely ignoring his words..

Cedric’s face darkened. Watching her repeatedly put clothes into the suitcase, he took three or four steps and reached her side,
pressing her against the fitting room mirror.

“You’re being a naughty girl.”
He couldn’t imagine what kind of gaze other men would cast on her if she wore this dress. His raging anger continued to surge at
the thought of others looking at his treasure.
Sensing his
anger,
Maia paid no attention to it. Instead, she asked him, “Cedric, are you being

business relationship.”
Cedric squinted his sharp eyes, gazing at Maia, silent but with a terrifying expression. Mala, however, met his gaze without
showing any weakness.
“Let it go, Cedric! This is beyond the boundary!”
In the next moment, his expression changed. In front of him was the woman he loved dearly. There was no reason not to
compromise. Loving her meant bowing down and compromising.

While pride was important, a wife was even more important! He had lost her once, so he understood this deeply.
Cedric gradually loosened his grip and released her. “Can you wear a jacket?”
His messy hair fell over his forehead. Maia couldn’t see the changes in his deep eyes, but she could feel he was bowing down to
her.
Somehow, after witnessing his pitiful appearance, Maia found herself unable to refuse. The words of rejection were on the tip of
her tongue, but she couldn’t utter them.
She casually said, “If the venue is air–conditioned, I might need a jacket. I don’t want to catch a cold!”
“The venue is well air–conditioned. You must wear one,” Cedric asserted.
Maia burst into laughter. It was the first time she had seen Cedric like this. “Cedric, do you know what you look like right now?”
“Hmm?”
“Like a child afraid of someone stealing his candy. It’s as if you’ll be unhappy if someone touches your candy.”

“Indeed,” he admitted openly, “no man wants his wife to run off with someone else.”
Maia’s laughter froze slightly. She immediately avoided his intense gaze and continued. packing.
She silently packed her luggage while he stood aside, silently watching her. It wasn’t until she placed a black shawl in the
suitcase that he smiled.Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

Maia zipped up the suitcase, and as she looked up, she caught sight of his satisfied smile. It was like that of a contented child.
She could not remember where she had read it before, but once a man loves you, he will reveal his most tender side like a child.
Right now, he indeed resembled a child. She had never seen such eyes, Now, she had witnessed it countless times in just a few
days.
and such a smile before.

The next morning. Tess and Maia met at the airport, heading to Östtahl.
Tess was unaware that this flight was specially arranged for her. The other passengers on the plane, apart from the two of them,
were all Cedric’s men. Every move Tess made was under the scrutiny of everyone. Throughout the journey, aside from
incessantly talking about Cedric with Maia, she remained relatively composed.
However, it was more like she was probing for information rather than chatting. Tess was trying to understand Cedric’s recent
activities, hoping to find out if Cedric had said anything negative about her as an aunt.
“Aunt Tess, when did you become so interested in Cedric?” Maia pretended to be puzzled, smiling as she inquired.
Tess waved her hand, saying, “Oh no, I’m just casually asking. I just want to know if he treats you well. I’m worried you might
regret it.”
“Aunt Tess, we’ve discussed this topic before. I’ve already told you I want to follow my own heart. Please don’t worry about me.”
Maia’s tone remained gentle, revealing no particular
emotion.
“Now, I consider myself like your mother. How can I not care about you? You haven’t remarried Cedric yet. If you do, what will
happen? You seem to be siding with him every day. There are so many good men in the world, like Nigel. You, why do you insist
on liking Cedric so much?”
Tess shook her head helplessly. “I really can’t persuade you.”

“Then let’s not talk about it...” She really didn’t want to continue discussing this with Tess. Tess didn’t persist. “Fine, then I’ll go to
sleep.”
