Chapter 127 However, Maia was sure that the man that night was not Cedrick Mason, and the room she
was in was not Room 520 either.
It had been four years. Why was Cedrick digging into this?
Was he trying to investigate her past?
Ever since she got engaged to Cedrick, Maia had been loyal to him and only him.
Maia frantically flipped through the stack of papers. The information collected was quite comprehensive,
and other than related documents and photos, there were even videos.
Everything from the moment Cedrick entered Four Seasons Hotel was recorded, including the staff who
entered and left the hotel.
Her gaze finally fell and fixated on one of the snapshots of the surveillance footage. The girl in the
snapshot was… Catelyn! The snapshot from the surveillance footage at the restaurant opposite Four

What kind of coincidence was that?
Could Catelyn be the girl Cedrick was looking for? No… This could not be!
The Clark family was already bankrupt by then, and Ezekiel was already in prison. How would Catelyn
still be in the mood to meet Cedrick at Four Seasons?
Plus, Catelyn had never once blackmailed Cedrick over these years.
Even so, Maia was still very much astounded. She had worked tirelessly, just to attain the title of being
Cedrick’s fiancee, and she was not about to let anyone take it from her! Suddenly, she heard footsteps
outside the door, and it felt as though her heart was being stepped on. “Master Cedrick, Miss Clark is
here. She’s waiting for you inside,” reported Charles. Without hesitation, Maia stuffed the photo and the
USB drive that contained the video into her handbag, all while unable to completely rid of the guilty
expression on her face.
Cedrick pushed open the door and entered.
Maia was sitting on the sofa with her legs crossed elegantly. She smiled as she held a cup of lemon tea.
She placed the cup down gracefully when she saw Cedrick entering.
“Cedrick, it’s about time for us to depart for the event.”
Cedrick gave her a small nod. “You go ahead and groom yourself first, and I’ll catch up once I’m done
with some matters.”
“Remember not to be late,” said Maia affectionately and left. In truth, however, her back was already
soaked in cold sweat, and she could not afford to let Cedrick see what she had in her bag.
Subconsciously, she walked faster and almost tripped herself.
Thankfully, the door frame was next to her, and she managed to grab onto it to regain her balance. She
quickly stumbled and escaped from Cedrick’s office.
Cedrick went back to his table where his documents laid neatly, not noticing Maia’s little misstep.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe opened one of the folders and took out a stack of papers that contained some basic information,
including some snapshots from a few surveillance cameras, photos, and descriptions. They were still
very much like what he found four years ago, and there was nothing suspicious.
Cedrick rubbed his temples, feeling slightly flustered. Could he have wronged Maia? It seemed that she
truly was the woman from that night four years ago.
Was he overthinking things?
The night progressed.
At the entrance of the six-star International Grand Hotel, the floor was draped with red carpet to welcome
the guests, and along the two sides of the path were fresh flowers and ribbons. The usherettes put on
their best smiles, welcoming the guests with great hospitality. The security was tight with guards
stationed everywhere. A flamboyant Ferrare and a cool-looking Mercedis Junebach pulled over at the
front door of the hotel.
