Chapter 214 Richard had started seeing Maia more often, and even though she enjoyed herself, they
had to be secretive about it.
Since Richard was no celebrity, Maia found herself growing bored of him.
That morning, Maia was awoken by the sound of her phone’s text notification. It was another good-
morning message sent by Richard. She swiped away the message in frustration and opened her
conversation with Cedrick
Their last text was from a long time ago when she had invited him to dinner.
It seemed to her that he was determined to dump her after all.
Maia was in a rotten mood as she lay in bed and scrolled away on her phone when she saw a trend on
Twidder.
[Have you ever bought sanitary pads for your girlfriend?]
She clicked on the hashtag and saw the top post, noticing that it was posted by a cashier who worked in
a 24-hour convenience store. The cashier posted about seeing a man who went into the store at four in
the morning just to buy a whole bag full of sanitary pads.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThere was even a photo attached to the viral post.
A handsome man in leisure wear with his hand on the door handle was seen heading out of the store.
The photo was taken at an angle that showed the man’s side profile.
Even if it was just a side profile, Maia was able to recognize him right away.
This man was Cedrick!
Cedrick Mason, a proud and successful young man, went out in the middle of the night just to buy
sanitary pads for a woman!
He had never even bought a single piece of clothing for her during the four years they were together.
Flames of anger slowly seeped into Maia’s chest.
She was so consumed by anger that she smashed her phone onto the ground with a loud slam. The
impact caused the phone’s battery to pop out of the device and clatter on the solid ground, startling her
parents who had just walked past her room in the corridor.
Maia’s parents knocked on her door before walking in, only to find their daughter’s face twisting in anger
like a monster about to consume a human.
Maia’s mother was shocked. She had always taught Maia to act like a graceful lady. This was the first
time she had ever seen her daughter looking like this!
“What’s going on, Mai?”
“Mom, Cedrick went out late at night yesterday just to get Catelyn some sanitary pads. They must be
doing something shameful at such an hour of the day! He even went viral on Twidder
solid

now!
“This is unacceptable-I can’t take this anymore. I’m going to ruin that b*tch Catelyn’s face!” Maia had
completely lost her mind. She freed herself from her father’s hands and added, “No, that’s not enough…
I’m going to kill her!” Maia’s mother finally understood what was happening and tried to console Maia,
saying, “It’s just a picture. It does look similar to Cedrick, but don’t overthink it…”
“How can I not recognize him?!”
“Enough!” Maia’s father stopped her and snapped, “So what if he was out buying things for another
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwoman? What man doesn’t have a couple of mistresses on the side? Have you forgotten everything that
we’ve ever taught you about being a lady? Where’s your composure?! I’ve wasted all that time educating
you…” Maia bit her lip and whined, “Dad! How could you side with an outsider?” “Grandpa Mason had
called earlier. He’s aware of Cedrick wanting to call off the marriage, and he had asked for you and
Cedrick to go see him this weekend. You can tell him everything you want then.”
Maia’s eyes sparkled in anticipation. Grandpa Mason was, at the end of the day, the head of the Mason
Family, and everything he said would be final.
Cedrick might not have the guts to just call off the wedding if he did not get Grandpa Mason’s approval.
On top of that, she had Janice on her side as well.
Maia still had both power and connections. She still had the chance to be Missus Mason!
Meanwhile, Jamie and his lawyer had been pressuring Catelyn aggressively. They even managed to get
the word out about how Catelyn was disqualified from Chandier Jewelry’s competition, using this to
criticize her personality. They even spread rumors around, bringing more chaos into Catelyn’s life.
On top of that, they threatened for her to give up or they would drag her reputation through the mud!
