Will You Marry Me, Again by Pear Heart

Chapter 187 Do You Still Need Me?

Cedric just nodded coldly in response.

Maia tried hard to suppress her laughter. “Rita, Cedric means that he doesn’t want to tire you. It’s been a long day for everyone, you should go home and have a break. Rest assured as long as I’m here, I’ll take good care of Cedric.”

Rita’s expression eased at Maia’s considerate words. “Alright, I feel assured having you look after Cedric, I’ll take my leave, then.”

Maia smiled and nodded, “Do be careful on your way home.”

“Cedric, you should let Maia know if you need anything. She’s more than capable of taking care of you. You don’t really need me by your side anymore.”

Cedric could not help but sneered at the irony. When he had sustained severe burns protecting Maia in his teens, she only came to visit him a handful of times.

She also only came once when he had burnt his back while saving Maia from another fire. Since when had he needed her by his side? He continued to ignore her as his face remained impassive.

As Rita prepared to leave, she turned to Maia and asked, “Why don’t you come see me off?”

Maia nodded obediently and followed behind her. Cedric instinctively reached out and grabbed her wrist.

“What’s wrong? You don’t even want to let Maia send me off? She’s my daughter–in–law, that’s the least she should do,” Rita commented.
