Chapter 238 Little Maia, It''s Really You
Maia smiled at Mr. Welbeck. This smile was sweet and gentle, but it gave off a razor-sharp feeling.
Did he see them, siblings without a father and with their mother deceased, as easy targets to bully? Starlight Entertainment
might not be at its peak, but it still held a respectable position. in the industry. As the president of Starlight Entertainment, she
could never let an outsider embarrass her like this. Once word got out, it would damage thepany’s reputation.
Maia understood what Mr. Welbeck’s show of authority meant. He was establishing authority for Elena, fearing she might be
mistreated after marrying Errol. Hence, he disyed this act at the dinner table, showing his prowess as a father to both Maia
and Errol.
However, such behavior was truly unnecessary.
Welbeck looked at Maia and smiled, “Indeed, a friend of mine has an only son, but he’s quite at spendthrift. So, he’s considering
hiring a good manager to n for the future.”
Maia nodded with a smile, “Sure, I''ll have my assistantpile a list for you, and you can pass it on to your friend.”
“How can | trouble you with this?” Mr. Welbeck was polite in his response.
“Mr. Welbeck, firstly, you’re a senior in the business world. Secondly, when Elena marries Errol, we''ll be family. Just based on
that, if you''re busy, | will help to the best of my ability,” Maia’s words were tactful and gentle, leaving no room for criticism.
Mr. Welbeck’s expression visibly changed after hearing Maia’s words. He said, “With a sister like Ms. Maia, Elena will
undoubtedly be happy.”
Mrs. Welbeck also nodded in agreement, “Yes, everyone says an elder brother is like a father, and an elder sister is like a
mother. This is my first time meeting Mrs. Maia...” Pausing, Mrs. Welbeck asked, “Can | call you Maia? It would be more
intimate.”
“Of course, Mrs. Welbeck.”
Mrs. Welbeck smiled and continued, “Today is my first time meeting you in person. You are even more beautiful than on TV and
in the news, and the key is, you’repetent and sensible. Elena has been spoiled since childhood. If there are any
shorings, we hope you can bear with her.”
“Elena deserves to be pampered. If Errol bullies her, I''ll be the first to scold my brother.”
Maia knew Errol’s character very well as his sister, he would never mistreat Elena.
“With a sister like M, Elena is fortunate!” Mrs. Welbeckplimented warmly and then looked at Elena sitting beside her,
“Elena, what are you still doing? Hurry up and call her
Elena was shy but smiled and gestured, “Sister, thank you. But | trust my brother Errol won''t bully me. If he ever bullies me, I''ll let
you know, okay?”
Looking at the innocent Elena, Maia couldn’t bear to refuse her. Smiling, she nodded, “Sure, remember to tell me right away.”
“Okay.” Elena nodded happily.Belongs to ? n0velDrama.Org.
Later, everyone raised their sses, and there were more obligatory gestures for such asions. Maia asionally kept an eye
on Errol. His gaze towards Elena was tender, but it alwayscked that certain something.
The girl sitting in front of him was very pure and elegant, undoubtedly a good match, but not the one in his heart. Maia
understood, but there was nothing she could say or do. It was Errol’s decision, and even though she was his sister, she couldn’t
interfere too much.
Soon, Maia found an excuse to go to the restroom and walked towards the exit of the private room. In her ears, she kept hearing
Errol’s words from earlier. She quickened her pace, nning to cross the hall and head towards the restroom at the end.
However, as she reached the middle of the hall, a somewhat intoxicated man rushed towards
her.
“Hey, it’s really Little Maia!”
Maia looked at the man in front of her, drunk and disheveled, and smelled the unpleasant odor of alcohol emanating from him.
“Don’t you remember me? Little Maia, when you entered La Rouquette, someone saw you. | thought they were mistaken, but it’s
really you... Little Maia, don’t you remember me? | was the student union president when you were in college,” the man said with
an air of self-
satisfaction.
Maia barely remembered him now. He was the president of the student union during her college days, a guy who never did
anything productive. He would lounge around with his legs crossed, driving a sports car, and chasing after girls.
Maia didn’t bother acknowledging him and pretended not to recognize him, attempting to go around him. However, the student
union president, Brad, was persistent. Just as Maia tried to avoid him, he stepped forward and blocked her way.
“Get out of the way!” Maia frowned, speaking with a harsh and decisive tone..
“Oh, the former little white flower has now turned into a rose? Hahaha!” After the words fell, Brad burst intoughter, waving to
the hall on one side, “Hey, guys,e and see! My college ssmate is now the president of Starlight Entertainment. Little Maia
still looks as delightful as she did in college!”
Soon, a group of spoiled rich kids approached, chatting andughing. Maia forcefully pushed away the man in front of her. “Get
lost!”
President Brad staggered back several steps, nearly losing his bnce. With the support of a few rich kids, he managed to
steady himself. After regaining his footing, he shouted in dissatisfaction, “Hey, dare you push me? Do you think having Starlight
Entertainment is something to be proud of? Take a look at the industries my family controls. We''re in the top ten in Prismara.
Your little entertainmentpany can’t even make it to the top hundred!” “Instead of caring about my littlepany, you might
want to pay attention to your own. After all, who knows when you''ll bankrupt it.”
Maia’s beautiful eyes narrowed slightly. She smirked, mocking him.
Brad became immediately displeased. He pointed at her and shouted, “You bitch, what did you just say? I’ll tear your mouth
apart.” He was about to charge at Maia but was restrained by several men beside him.
“Bro, calm down. This woman seems to have some connection with Cedric, if youy a hand on her, and Cedric finds out...”
Bradughed, “What can Cedric do? The overlord is far away, and my father is a prominent figure in Prismara. Even if Cedric is
damn powerful, he still has to show me some respect. He can’t tear his face apart over a woman he’s already slept with, right?”
