Will You Marry Me, Again
Chapter 280

Chapter 280 Maya Island?“Acting cute isn’t going to help you. I’m still going to teach you a lesson if you leave The Horizon Awards empty-handed!”Hope held her head and said playfully, “Please forgive me, Maia. | won’t tease you anymore. | swear!”

Jennifer, who was sitting behind them, covered her mouth and smiled. Hope saw it and said, ” Maia’s going to teach you a lessontoo if you don’t bag the Best Supporting Actress award, Jennifer!”

Hope and Jennifer had acted in the same television drama. They had been close to each other since then.Hope turned to Maia and asked, “Am | right, Maia?”“Not at all!” Maia poked at her head again, “Jennifer did well enough by getting nominated, regardless of the result.”

“Absolutely true. You said it, Ms. Maia!” Jennifer nodded, “I’m greatly inspired by the fact that I’m nominated. I'll keep pushingmyself in the future!”

“| can’t believe you're taking her side, Maia... You should've stood up for me!”

Maia smiled, “I have to remain impartial.”

Hope put on a pitiful expression again.

The flight attendants started distributing pamphlets to every passenger when they were about to arrive at the destination.

“In this brochure, you'll replace information about Maya Cove. It’s a property of HL Corporation that has been developed for tourism.Various facilities were developed and completed three months ago, including the airport and resort. It isn’t open to the public yet.The Horizon Awards will mark its debut in the general public’s eyes.

“You may enjoy all the facilities on the island for free, and you'll be checked in at the luxurious resort! Please refer to thepamphlet in your hand for more details. We wish you a great time on your trip and may all of you win tons of awards in theupcoming The Horizon Awards!”

The flight attendant nodded and smiled at everyone before she turned around and left.

“Maya Cove?” Hope muttered. She flipped through the pamphlet at once, “It sounds the same as your name, Maia.” Then, it hither.

“HL Corporation bought the whole island and developed it for tourism... could the name have

Island after... mmph...” Mala covered her mouth before she could finish.

“| know what you're going to say, but you’re so loud everyone on the plane could hear you.”

Hope blinked and gestured at Maia, Then, Maia took her hand away. Hope said softly, “Did Cedric name the island after you?”“He did not.”

“How can you be so sure, Maia?”

“| didn’t pay for the naming rights.”

Hope was speechless for a while before continuing, “You don’t have to do that, Maia. Cedric would've given the entire island toyou in a heartbeat if you asked for it.” Maia did not

respond to that. Instead, she started reading the pamphlet.Athousand fireworks couldn't outshine your resplendence.

Maia paused for a few seconds when she saw this particular sentence on the pamphlet. She could not quite explain it, but shegot the feeling Cedric was trying to talk sweetly to her through the island. Just like that, her grip on the pamphlet tightened.

Hope muttered, “A thousand fireworks couldn't outshine your resplendence. Wow. How romantic! This is one of the most famousshows on Maya Cove. The Firework Festival.

“Also, they're using fireworks that are both safe for the environment and have a high production value! Can we catch this showtonight, Maia?”

Maia was distracted, so she had not heard what Hope said.

“Maia?”

“Hmm?”

“Let's catch the Firework Festival tonight. | think it’s cool. Also, it’s highly recommended!”

Maia stared at the slogans and the promotional pictures before nodding. Hope was having a good time reading the pamphlet.She spent most of her time on film sets, reading the scripts. She had not had many chances to go on holiday. Naturally, she wasgoing to seize the opportunity and have the time of her life here!

The celebrities took turns changing their attires in the washroom when the plane was about to arrive at Maya Cove. The weatherwas hot there nearly all year round. It was about eighty Fahrenheit there. Autumn wear was not exactly the best choice.

The airplane touched down and all of them disembarked, dressed in their summer clothes. The shuttle bus took them from therunway to the terminal building. Hope held Maia’s arm in hers throughout the journey.

Reporters and fans were already waiting there. Their bodyguards escorted them to a designated path the moment they rushed ather.

“HL Corporation sponsored The Horizon Awards, Ms. Maia. Did Mr. Cedric do it for you?”

“This is the first time Mr. Cedric is attending an awards event for the entertainment industry, Ms. Maia. Are you the reason behindit as well?”

“Is there any possibility both of you will get married again this year, Ms. Maia? Someone took pictures of him carrying you to theairport. What do you have to say about that?”

The reporters‘ questions were all related to Cedric. Naturally, Maia was not going to entertain them. She gathered that somepaparazzi had taken pictures of Cedric carrying her to the airport.

They just got off the plane, so they did not have time to check the web. However, Maia was sure that if she checked, she wouldonce again see herselg on the trending searches.

Wearing a pair of sunglasses, she took Hope’s hand and walked to the path under the bodyguards‘ guidance. She kept a pokerface throughout the entire process and she had no interest in giving any answers.

Crappy questions brought on a crappy mood. The reporters realized Maia was not going to entertain them. So, they turned toHope instead.

“This is the first time you and Ms. Maia have appeared in public together since it was announced that you're sisters, Ms. Hope.How do you feel about it?”

“Rumor has it that you’re born out of wedlock, Ms. Hope. You only share the same father with Ms. Maia. What do you have tosay about that?”

the Hope merely smiled and remained quiet. She held Maia’s hand and picked up

pace. The reporters did not get any answers. All they could do was take pictures relentlessly, make some targeted articles aboutthe sisters, and upload them to the internet.

It was a good thing the fans captured the entire process on video. The netizens who viciously attacked Maia and Hope on theinternet were quickly shut down by the sisters‘ supporters. They rebuked their stands with the video and questioned them back. Itshut them right up.

Now, Maia and Hope were on the trending search as well. The netizens couldn’t have enoughof it.

“These reporters are insufferable. What kind of questions were those? Can they focus on the shows Starlight Entertainment hasproduced and its annual revenue, instead of our private life affairs?!”
