Chapter 138 Grandpa Wants to See You

Maia’s eyes widened. Cedric was the last person she would expect to see here!

“Maia…” Hope said to her. “What’s Cedric doing here?” Cedric used to be Maia’s husband. That made him her former brother–in–law.

Maia frowned. She had no answers for Hope. Hope was frightened to see Cedric advancing toward them. “I’m going to go help Buck!”

Hope might be naive, but she had spent a long time in the entertainment industry. Her emotional intelligence and intellect were solid. She knew how to read a situation, and knew when to make herself scarce.

Maia started backing off when she saw Cedric taking steps toward her. She needed to keep a distance from him. He suddenly caught her arms when she took another step backward.

“You’ll fall into the ditch.”

Maia was startled. She turned and saw that there was indeed a ditch at the side of the

apartment.

“Let me go!” Maia said coldly. She could not even look at him.

“How have you been for the past month?”

“Great,” Maia answered swiftly. “I had a wonderful life because you weren’t a part of it. I was

free of trouble.”

“That’s great, then.” He was relieved to hear that.
