Chapter 223 King of the Forest
Maia took the phone, and saw several entertainment company executives gathered together. These were familiar faces. Like
Aiken’s boss, the former owner of Celia’s entertainment
company, and the swallowed owner of Nebula Entertainment.
Soon, their conversation reached her ears.
“Ever since Maia Burgess appeared, she’s been aiming for sole dominance. If we don’t show Maia her place, she’ll think she’s
leading in the entertainment industry!”
“First, she swallowed up my Nebula, making me an insignificant shareholder. Next, who knows who among you she might target.
Maia is really arrogant!”
“An immature teen, what’s there to be proud of? When Rosa managed Starlight Entertainment, she still had to show me some
respect. Now, she’s directly setting her sights. on Aiken under my management?” The speaker was Aiken’s boss, speaking
through gritted
teeth.
He continued, “She arrived in Prismara this afternoon. I tracked her movements from the airport. It’s time to give her a taste.”
The boss of Nebula asked in confusion, “What do you mean?”
“A car accident is enough,” said Aiken’s boss, and then added, “Getting rid of Maia is beneficial for both you and me!”
The heads of several entertainment companies nodded in agreement.
“Of course, we’ll listen to you, boss. Let her see our strength. Does she really think the entertainment industry belongs only to
Starlight Entertainment?”
“Looking forward to her fate, just like Rosa, that would be perfect.”
“Yeah, after Rosa’s death, how many artists did we snatch from Starlight Entertainment? All we got were losses after Maia
appeared!”

“We’ll benefit from getting rid of her.”
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Maia handed the phone back to Cedric and asked, “When did you get this video?”
“Three minutes after you got into Aiken’s car.”
She asked again, “How did you get this video?”
Although he was Cedric, capable of knowing whatever he wanted, he wasn’t omniscient. Moreover, how did he know that these
industry bosses were planning to unite against her?

“Ah, is this beautiful lady a family member?” The other driver said with a grin, “Seeing how good–looking you are, you must be
this handsome guy’s sister, right? I was telling your brother to send the car to my auto repair shop. I’ll fix it to its original state.
“But he mentioned that you have something to attend to, and it’s inconvenient without transportation. It’s the 21st century now,
just get an Uber. Plus, there are plenty of cabs around! Look, there’s one right there!”
Just as the other driver finished speaking, a cab parked across the street loudly shouted, “Hey, beautiful, do you want a ride?”
The other driver quickly nodded, waved his hand, and said, “Yes, this beautiful lady wants a ride. Wait a moment, Mr. Driver!!
Maia said, “Nigel, I’ll get on the cab with Aiken first. It’s not suitable for him to wander around on the street like this, especially
with me. If someone with ill intentions takes photos, who knows what trouble it might cause. You go with this driver to the shop
and get the car fixed.”

Nigel could only nod reluctantly, but his dissatisfaction was evident.
“Alright, that’s settled then. I’ll contact you once I finish my work.”
“Okay,” Maia responded, then she walked over with Aiken. Just as Maia reached the cab and opened the door, something pulled

her back.
“Argh!” Maia exclaimed.
Before she could react, she heard Aiken’s cry of pain. Then, the door closed abruptly. The driver swiftly started the engine, and
the cab sped away.
Aiken, still recovering from being hit by the cab door, hadn’t realized what happened. The car had already disappeared without a
trace.
“Maia!” Aiken shouted loudly on the street.
Soon after, a loud voice called out, “Quick, that’s Aiken!”
“Aiken, I love you!”
“Aiken, I’m your fan!”
In no time, a swarm of fans rushed toward Aiken, Aiken quickly ran, shouting, “Nigel, help!”
Nigel watched Aiken and a large group of female fans coming toward him. However, there was no sign of Maia.
He sighed and said, “This guy causes more trouble than he’s worth! He lost Maia and still

Cedric pointed to Aiken’s boss, the man referred to as “boss” by the others.

“He is the focus of the corporation.”
Mala was puzzled and asked, “Aiken’s boss? Victor Terrence? Has he offended you?”
“Anyone who poses a threat to HL. Corporation will be our target.”
“I suddenly don’t know if you or HL. Corporation are more terrifying,” Maia said, chuckling involuntarily. “If I pose a threat to HL,
will you also send someone to keep an eye on me?”
His eyes were profound, a faint smile appearing on his lips as he asserted, “No, I will bring the entire corporation to you.”
Maia didn’t respond, looking away, and the car fell into silence for a while. After some time, Maia spoke again, a bit stiffly, “How
did they arrange the car accident? Which road?”
“At the next intersection, the truck driver has already been controlled by Baz.”
“A truck? That’s an attempt on my life. Even if I’m lucky, a collision like that... I’d have to lie in bed for several months. It’s
beneficial for them, but definitely not harmless.”

She narrowed her eyes, and her delicate hand clenched into a fist..
Cedric nodded. Indeed, Maia didn’t say anything wrong.
“So, you used this method to help me out of danger? No, not just me, but also Nigel and Aiken.
He sneered, “Others‘ life and death have nothing to do with me.”
Maia was startled. Indeed, Cedric had always been so indifferent. Before she could speak, his low voice sounded again, “For
me, you’re the only exception.”
Maia stiffened slightly, and her clenched hand also froze. Now, she didn’t know whether to despise Cedric or not. After all, his
actions were to save her. Yet, she unjustly accused him and said such hurtful words.
Maia lowered her gaze, and her curled lashes flickered a few times. She had never liked owing
others favors.
“Today, you have saved me, and I’m grateful. Thanks to your video, I’ve made up my mind not to let Victor and the others off.”
Maia’s mind was already made up. Victor’s Mykonos Studio had some fame in the industry. However, a person like him wasn’t
worthy!
Cedric looked at Maia, sensing the determination emanating from her. He calmly gazed at her, his eyes carrying a hint of
anticipation.

I wonder if Mr. Cedric is interested?”
“How so? Do you want to take over Mykonos Studio and give it to me?” Cedric raised an eyebrow, smirking. “Is this your way of
proposing to me?”
“A proposal?” Maia chuckled, teasingly saying, “I didn’t know you had the idea of marrying into a family.”
How could a man who carried himself with such arrogance possibly set aside his dignity and choose to marry into a family? But
unexpectedly, he spoke with unwavering certainty, without hesitation. “As long as you nod, I can do it anytime.”

For the sake of his wife, marrying into a family was not a problem! Maia was stunned for a few seconds and immediately replied,
“You might be disappointed. I currently have no intention of marrying.”
“If you want to get married, I can do that anytime.”
Maia was speechless. She had long known how shameless Cedric was, he was practically invincible. Why bother arguing with
him?
She smiled at Cedric. This smile was like a rose about to bloom, tempting someone to pluck it, but the rose had thorns.
“To be so liked by you, I feel truly fortunate. Unfortunately, times have changed, and in this world, what kind of man can’t a
wealthy woman have? I’m not willing to give up the entire forest for the sake of one tree, even if it’s Cedric Larkin.”
Maia countered Cedric with words, but he took it all in stride.
“What if I become the king of the forest? How about that?”
As long as he was the king of the forest, the entire forest would have to obey him. As soon as she spoke, he could become
anything she desired. He treated her with such indulgence, and when he saw her in a playful mood, his brows and eyes were full
of tenderness, his eyes filled with a gentle smile. He was happier than anyone else.
