Will You Marry Me, Again by Pear Heart

Cedric smiled at Maia’s mischief. He pinched her nose softly and said lovingly, “You’re so adorable.”

Did he really just call her adorable after she treated him that way?

Oswald was carrying the pot of tomato soup to the living room when Baz suddenly ran into him. The pot fell, causing a loud crash, and the entirety of its contents spilled on the floor! “Baz!” Oswald was furious, “Watch where you’re going! Why are you in such a hurry? Look what you’ve done. All that soup has gone to waste!”

“I’m sorry, Oswald!” Baz said, pathetically. “I have something urgent to tell Mr. Cedric. I was in such a hurry I didn’t see you. Are you hurt?”

“I’m fine. It’s such a shame about the soup, though! Sigh… Ms. Maia even said she’ll feed Mr. Cedric! You should learn to read the room. You’ve gone and ruined this romantic moment!”

Baz was a little embarrassed, but he did not have a choice. Did Oswald think he would dare to topple the entire pot of tomato soup if his master had not given him the order?

It was so hard on him because he had to resort to trickery and play dumb at the same time!

“I’m sorry, Oswald. I–I’ll make it up to you and buy the ingredients for you to make it again. tomorrow.” Baz apologized with utmost sincerity.

Oswald had no choice but to let it go.

“Fine. Watch where you’re going next time. What would you have done if Mr. Cedric and Ms. Maia had gotten hurt due to your clumsiness?”

“Don’t worry, Oswald. It won’t happen again!” Baz said immediately.

Maia saw what happened. She turned to look at Cedric. He must have instructed Baz to do it.

“Seems like you don’t want me to feed you after all. Perhaps you’ll think twice before you act so shamelessly next time.” Maia took her phone and was about to head upstairs when Cedric grabbed her arm.

She stumbled backward and fell onto the couch. Cedric was on her before she could react.
