Will You Marry Me, Again by Pear Heart

Reputation?

A man walked toward the runaway. He had an intimidating aura as he walked toward Maia and took out a black handkerchief to clean the residue from her forehead.

“It’s swelling.” He looked at her gently, but his tone was upset.

Moments later, Baz came into the hall with a group of security guards and restrained the woman who threw the egg at Maia.

“Unhand me! She was brave enough to commit murder, so why is she so scared of hearing what people are saying? We’re not allow to even ask for justice for Zera, just because Mr. Cedric is protecting Maia Burgess!” The woman continued to struggle against Baz as she yelled.

The woman had managed to ignite a storm of anger in the once silence hall. The organizers had also rushed over to check on the situation. They were shocked as something this controversial had never happened in the history of the fashion show.

The organizers immediately apologized to Cedric, but Cedric only turned to them and asked for a microphone.

Moments later, Cedric’s voice echoed through the hall, “The police have already cleared Maia of all charges as she was still in a coma when Zera Larkin was found dead. In other words, she is innocent.”

This statement caused a commotion in the hall. Upper–class society was complicated. Even so, the highly esteemed Cedric had just publicly defended the woman he loves without a second thought.

“If she didn’t do it, then why would she so eagerly remove any sort of news about her? Isn’t that an admission of guilt? Even if she didn’t do it personally, who could guarantee that she didn’t pay someone to do it?”

“I was the one who ordered news about her to be removed.” Cedric eyed the woman who questioned him dangerously as he replied coldly.
