Chapter 308 Was He Jealous?

At that moment, Cedric pulled Maia into his arms and said assertively, “Why did you call him dear? You can only call me that!”

Maia said nothing.

“You flashed him such a sweet smile too. I’m going to wreck him later!”

Maia blinked and looked at him surprisingly. ‘Is he jealous? Was that all it took?‘

Maia laughed when she saw the burning jealousy in his eyes, “Nothing. I called him that because I needed his help with something.”

“I’m your husband, and I’m right here. Why didn’t you ask me for help?”
