Chapter 247 He’s Not There
Buck glanced at Maia after he finished and added playfully, “Do you want Mr. Cedric to be there? If you do, he’s just one phone
call away. No wait, just a text is enough! I’m sure he’ll appear if you text him!”
Maia noticed that the lights were green, so she said, “You should go back to driving and shut up.”
Buck remained silent throughout the drive to the venue. They were already broadcasting the show live when Maia got there. She
hurried to her seat and noticed that there was an empty seat beside her. He was not there.
Seconds later, The Quest main theme song played, and Aiken appeared on the stage. He gave the audience a charming smile
when the spotlights shone on him.
Maia was distracted through half of the show until a staff member jolted her back to reality by informing her that Aiken had invited
her on stage.
Maia quickly composed herself and gracefully strolled on stage.
“Let us welcome Starlight Entertainment’s CEO, Ms. Maia Burgess!” A round of applause erupted as she walked to the center of
the stage.
Aiken’s smile widened the minute he saw her, “Ms. Maia, today is The Quest’s finale. It’s a pleasure to have you here with us.
So, tell me, how are you feeling?”
“I feel happy and proud,” Maia replied.
“Why do you feel happy and proud?”
“I feel like a proud mother witnessing the growth of my girls. From the midst of summer till autumn, I’ve seen how all the trainees
have changed and improved. I had the honor of watching them grow, seasoned by the different challenges presented to them.
“Now, seeing them come so close to fulfilling their dreams and ascending onto that throne. Nothing would make me feel happier

and prouder.”

Maia’s speech garnered a standing ovation form the audience.
Aiken also nodded furiously as he added, “Today, let us all witness the birth of 10 new
superstars!”
Maia smiled as she looked at the trainees at the foot of the stage. “Good luck girls!”
They smiled and thanked her as they cheered each other on..
“Let us hype up the mood! Today is the day of the birth of our new girl group, we should be
excited for it!”

Aiken continued to hype up the audience by directing the attention to Mala. “Ms. Mala, it looks like you don’t have any makeup
on today, right? Dear trainees, am I right?”
Most of the contestants were surprised as they shouted, “Yes! Ms. Maia has such amazing skin!”
Maia smiled cheekily and said, “That’s because I clean my face regularly.”
All of the trainees laughed at her remark as it reminded them of what she had said to Fiona.

Maia left the stage shortly after hyping up the mood. Moments later, the show continued as the competitions heat up. The show
attracted a few million viewers tuning in at the same time.
The internet was flooded with topics related to The Quest, and the warring couple was the first on every hot search list.
“I can’t believe Ms. Maia doesn’t have any makeup on! Her skin is so beautiful! I’m so envious!”
“It’s such a shame we don’t get to see the warring couple live. I didn’t expect Mr. Cedric to be absent from this event. I wonder
what’s going on? Wasn’t he the owner of Sunny Videos?”
“I was wondering the same thing too! How is it that Ms. Maia is here but Mr. Cedric isn’t? I noticed an empty seat next to Ms.
Maia when the camera filmed her.”

“I saw it too. That’s probably Mr. Cedric’s, but why isn’t he here?”
“The warring couple must not split up! Please! I’ll wait till the end of the broadcast!”
Comments flooded the live chat room as the fans rooted for their favorite contestant and
couple. It seemed like The Quest was the talk of the town for the day.
Maia sat on her seat as she looked at the contestants drenched in sweat, giving their all to show the world what they were
capable of. She could not help but tear up at the scene.
Maybe it was because they reminded her of herself. How she had given her all to go after the man that she had love with all her
heart..

Unfortunately, her dreams shattered into pieces. Maia wished that this would not happen to the girls on the stage. Yet, the reality
was that there were only 10 seats available.
Maia continued to focus on the contest even though it had already been three hours. She studied each of the girls closely, and
when the competition came to an end, most of them were
in tears.
“Ms. Maia, why don’t you say a few words of encouragement to the girls, before today’s result?”

Maia took the microphone in her hands and looked at the girls on the stage. “These few

The minute Maia asked that question, the girls on the stage burst out crying.
“The seats on the other side of the stage look beautiful, don’t they? But there are only 10 of them. It means that there will be
others who would be dropped. This is what it means to dream. Giving everything you’ve got isn’t always enough to guarantee
success.
“Let this stage be a part in your life but don’t let it consume everything. Your life is in your hands, you get to choose how to live it!
If you lose, then do it with your head held high, and make sure that you’re not afraid to try again! I believe in each and every one
of you. You are all the best!’
Maia concluded her speech to thundering applause. When Aiken was about to announce the final 10 contestants that had made
it, all the lights on stage went out.
