Will You Marry Me, Again by Pear Heart

Chapter 177 It’s All Because of Last Night

How was Maia supposed to answer? Should she tell Rita that she was almost killed last night? Even though it was highly likely that Rita didn’t poison the chicken soup, her cruelty was no different.

After much thought, Maia came up with the most embarrassing yet adequate excuse. It could make Rita speechless and embarrassed.

“It’s all because of last night… It’s all my husband’s fault. He went to work today full of energy while I suffered… and made you wait for me for so long. I feel really guilty, Mom, please don’t be mad at me?”

Maia’s voice was soft and tender.

“No worries. You and Cedric are a loving couple. As a mother, I’m just happy. It’s my fault for being inconsiderate and disturbing you in the morning.”

Seeing Rita’s hypocritical appearance, Maia felt disgusted. Although she hadn’t eaten breakfast, she had the urge to vomit now.

“Mom, it’s my fault…”

Since the enemy was hypocritical, she needed to be a million times more hypocritical. The play had to be executed flawlessly.

Seeing Maia apologizing repeatedly and looking so delicate, Rita felt pleased. This version of Maia was still under her control.

“Alright, let’s stop with the apologies. Cedric has already reserved the table for 24 hours. Since you’re awake, let’s go now. My stomach is grumbling, too.”

“Okay.” Maia obediently followed Rita toward the villa’s exit.

As Rita walked out the door, her expression subtly changed. Maia narrowed her eyes. She was eager to see who would come out on top a year and a half later!
