Chapter 85 I Can Still Be Romantic!

Baz slapped himself on the forehead. “Right! She could have killed herself three years ago. Unless, of course, she was murdered! Who could have wanted her dead?”

“To frame her,” Cedric drawled.

Baz could finally see the bigger picture. “I heard that Ms. Maia was trying to recover the surveillance footage of her mother’s death. The culprit must have heard about this. So, they needed a scapegoat to cover their tracks, and Yvette was the best candidate!”

Since Yvette used to be Homer’s mistress, it was easy to paint her as the villain.

“First, it was Hope and Yvette’s accident. Then, Theo attacked Ms. Maia, and Yvette committed suicide. Everything happened in a single day, and this indirectly created chaos.

“Furthermore, Yvette did have a reason to kill Rosa Burgess. No one would’ve been able to notice that she was a distraction!”

“As long as the culprit is afraid, they will make a mistake eventually,” Cedric smirked.

Baz nodded. The truth would be exposed. It’s just a matter of time.

“The sooner we find out who’s behind this, the better it is!” Cedric was worried about Maia.

This culprit was hiding in the shadows. If Maia found out about the truth behind Yvette’s death, she would only continue to dig deeper. The closer she got to the truth, the more dangerous it would be.

Baz nodded. Then he took out a photograph and handed it to Cedric.

“Mr. Larkin, this was taken when you were at the beach with Ms. Maia. The paparazzi who took this photograph sold it to a magazine. The person in charge contacted us. How would you like us to settle this?”

Without Cedric’s permission, they would not dare expose his privacy. Cedric observed the photograph handed to him.

The beautiful sunlight in the background gave the picture a romantic atmosphere. The main characters in the photos were blurry, as the one who took them was afraid to move closer.

As Cedric continued to observe the photograph, his expression softened. Baz could not help. but remind him, “Mr. Larkin, we should stop the magazine from publishing this, or else the public would know about Ms. Maia and you.”

“No. Let them publish it, I want everyone to know that she is mine.”

Baz nodded in realization–this was Cedric’s way of announcing to the world that Ms. Maia was taken!
