Chapter 60 No Match for Me

It was almost 6 p.m., and Maia wondered why Aiken hadn’t arrived yet as she gazed into the

distance.

Cedric approached her and held her hand.

“Let’s board the plane.”

Maia yanked her hand free as she saw two people approaching. “Your family is here.”

Rita hurried over, pulling Zera along.

“Why didn’t you tell me that you chartered a flight?” Rita smiled motherly at Cedric. “It’s too windy out here. Let’s board the plane.”

Pulling Zera along, Rita tried to board the plane, but Maia stopped her.

“Did I say you could board the plane?”

Rita snapped, “Why should I ask for your permission?“.

“Because I’m the one who chartered it.”

Rita was stunned.

Composing herself, she asked, “Cedric, is that true?”

“Absolutely.”

“You’d better not be lying to me. How could this be? What about me and Zera?”

“I’m sure you can find your own way home,” Cedric said coldly, without even looking at them.
