Chapter 260 She’s Still Sleeping

Maia nodded and went back to sleep.

The doorbell rang again. Cedric looked at her lovingly, put the towel on the table, and went out to open the door. Buck was shocked by what he saw.

“M–Mr. Cedric.” Buck took a few steps back and checked the unit number again to make sure he was at the right place.
