Chapter 53 Cedrick opened his closet and took out his shirt and suit. He changed into his clean shirt,
which highlighted his toned muscles underneath.
It was then Cedrick caught a whiff of gardenias, a very familiar scent, and he knew it was Maia. Maia
reached her arms out and embraced Cedrick from behind as she rested her cheek on his back
His body was incredibly toned without any extra fat. Maia breathed flirtatiously on Cedrick’s nape, her
voice soft and gentle like a cat’s purr.” Master Cedrick, we’ve been engaged for four years already. Why
haven’t you touched me after that one time four years ago?” Cedrick pursed his lips without saying
anything, and that familiar scent had turned pungent in that instant.
Seeing as Cedrick did not push her away, Maia became bold and decided to persist. “My parents have
been asking me when we’re getting married, and when we can have our own child.”

her elegant composure.
Cedrick’s facial features looked pronounced under the warm sunlight. “Sorry, but I don’t plan on having

she did. “Then we can just get married! I really like little Ollie, too…” Cedrick pushed Maia away and put
on his suit as he buttoned the top button of his shirt up, emitting an unapproachable aura.
When he looked back at Maia, there was not a single trace of emotion on his face.
“The Masons aren’t stable as of now, I’m sure you’re aware of that, and Alexander Mason is still thirsting
over the spot for the next Mason heir. Before we can come to a conclusion, I can’t give you an answer.
“If that’s not something you can accept, you can do whatever you want with our engagement contract. I’ll
bear the responsibilities.”
The reason they were engaged was only because of the incident four years ago. Cedrick had no love for
Maia. Even after four years of being together, he still had not developed any feelings for her. Cedrick
thought that maybe his feelings were just that limited. Maia looked at Cedrick, dumbfounded at first, but
her face quickly changed into a determined
smile.
“We’re engaged by the sacred law, and that’s for eternity. You’re mine, and nobody can take you away
from me. Don’t expect me to give up! I’ll patiently wait for the day when you finally
desde to marry me.”

Jamie had sustained multiple injuries across his body and even suffered a broken rib. He was able to
regain consciousness only after being rescued by the doctors in the hospital.
The doctor had advised him to rest for a month before going back to his normal life.
He was bound by bandages all over his body, his leg coated with cement and hung mid-air, and his face
covered with bruises. He looked like he went to hell and back.
His whole family was surrounding him and taking care of him. “Catelyn, that fool!” hissed Jamie’s
younger sister, Queenie, through gritted teeth. “How dare she have someone ambush you?! i’ll make
sure she pays for this!”
Queenie and Catelyn had gone to the same high school.
Catelyn used to always be the prettiest girl in school, and everyone loved her. The Clarks were a
powerful and wealthy family at that time, thus Queenie, too, used to be one of her followers.
Since the Clarks had fallen, and Catelyn had been dumped by Jamie… It was time for Queenie to shatter
Catelyn!
