Chapter 233 Seven Drones
“Really?” Cedric asked as his lips trembled.
Baz nodded convincingly, “Of course. Ms. Maia would never be interested in someone like Nigel!”
“You’re right. She’s not even interested in me.”
Baz was taken aback by his reply as he quickly nodded and added, “That’s why you shouldn’t worry
about Nigel!”
When Baz thought he was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief, Cedric said, “Even if she’s not
interested in him, she shouldn’t be spending so much time with another man!”
Baz could only lower his head and remain silent. His boss was unreasonable when he was jealous!
After a while, Baz suggested, “Then, why don’t we show up at Starlight Entertainment and confront
Nigel?”
“Confront him? Why should I?” Still, as soon as Cedric finished, he stood up and walked
toward the door with his car keys.

“Starlight Entertainment.”
“I thought he didn’t want to confront Nigel?‘ Baz could only follow behind Cedric in a rush. He could
never seem to keep up with Cedric’s thoughts.
Cedric had decided to personally drive to Maia’s company as he could not bear the thought of her
being alone in a room with another man.
When they got to Starlight Entertainment, Cedric threw his keys to Baz and instructed him to park the
car.
Baz was still in a daze from Cedric’s erratic driving as Cedric got out of the car without a second
thought and walked toward the main lobby.
When Cedric entered the building, he caused a small commotion at the front desk.
“I need you to check the visitors‘ list. Hey, are you listening?”
“L–look who’s here!”
“Who?” The receptionist turned toward the entrance as she was surprised to see a good- looking man
dressed in a tailored suit walking toward them.
She just gasped like a fish out of water as she tried to formulate words to say.

Cedric walked toward the elevators calmly. The front desk receptionists and security guards were too
shocked to move as they did not know whether they should even stop him.
“What should we do?”
“I think he’s here to see the CEO. Mr. Cedric was so eager to prove Ms. Maia’s innocence when the
scandal happened.”
“I know that. My question is, should we stop him? According to our company’s policy, we need to check
if visitors have an appointment or not.”
“Let’s check. We wouldn’t want to be fired for breaking protocol.”
“Right! Let’s smile and ask him nicely!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShortly after, two receptionists approached Cedric and smiled politely, “Good afternoon, Mr.
Cedric. Do you have an appointment?”
“Do I need to make an appointment just to see my wife?” Cedric said, looking at them sternly.
The receptionists took a deep breath and continued, “Sorry, it’s not about that. Our company has a
policy that all visitors need to make prior appointments before they are allowed to enter the building.
We know that you and Ms. Maia are a couple and we’re also fans of you.
“However, it is our job to make sure that you have an appointment. Please wait here while we call Ms.
Maia for confirmation.”
Before they could proceed, the phone at the front desk rang. It was Maia’s secretary.
“Ms. Maia said that she’s in a meeting with someone important. She would not be able to see anyone
else, especially those without an appointment.”

The receptionist who was on the other line was momentarily stunned before replying that she had got
the message.
