Chapter 15 Don’t Ever Love Me Again

Maia froze for a moment. Then she looked up at him and shook her head with a smile.

“No, I don’t regret it. As you know, marrying you has always been my dream. It may seem unfair that

my mother worked with your grandpa to force you to marry me, but I wasn’t aware of it until later.”

Maia then said, “Anyway, it doesn’t matter anymore, does it?”

“The reason?” he asked.

“Why did you insist on marrying me?” He thought there must be a reason.

Starlight Entertainment. For that reason, many men wanted to marry Maia.

However, she only had eyes for Cedric and always followed him wherever he went. She always smiled

at him even if he was highly annoyed with her.

Before Maia could speak, Cedric added, “Don’t tell me it’s love, okay? We hardly knew each

forget about that day and her.

When she told Cedric the story, he brushed it off as a cliched tale. He didn’t know that the boy

Yet, as tears welled up and rolled down her cheeks, she decided against it. He had forgotten about her

for 11 years. What could it change if she were to tell him now? Nothing. He would also not believe her.

While her heart ached, Maia took a deep breath and said, “You don’t need a reason to love someone.”

“Don’t ever love me again, okay?” Cedric’s tone was cruelly calm.

Maia’s smile froze as she fell into despair. She forced a smile. “Okay, I promise, but can you hold me
