apter 313 Breakfast with My Honey
“I'm not sure what happened, but I’m certain that Yuna did not manage to take advantage of Vicky.” Maia shook her head too, but from the looks of it, they had probably caused a huge
commotion.
Just as Maia finished, she heard footsteps coming from behind her. The next thing she knew, she was already in his warm embrace.
Before she could react, Cedric handed her a cell phone and told her to look at it.
“Why are you here too?” Maia lifted her head and looked at him.
“I'm here to have breakfast with my honey.”
Maia lowered her head as her cheeks flushed red. She quickly took the phone from his hands and opened the video footage of the restaurant.
Maia watched as Yuna provoked Victoria and kicked Victoria in the back of her knee when Victoria had turned to leave. Maia also watched how Victoria threw Yuna to the ground when Yuna suddenly bent over to help.
“Yuna is so horrible! How could she kick Vicky with her deadly heels? Vicky must be in so much pain!” Hope commented angrily as she watched the video footage.
Maia just remained silent as she handed the phone back to Cedric.
“Maia, we need to help Vicky get back at Yuna!”
“She already did it herself. It's best that we don’t get involved.”
“But how could we just watch as Vicky gets bullied?” Hope demanded as she was about to rush toward Victoria.
“Aiken already approached her to help. With him there, Yuna wouldn’t dare try anything more. Don’t get involved!” Maia quickly restrained her.
“Why not?”
“You need to think about your position. Have you forgotten how complicated this industry is? Besides, Yuna is a famous actress, and she also has the Smith family behind her.
“If you approach them recklessly, you wouldn’t be able to be much of a help and might even be taken advantage of!” Being careless could sometimes cause more damage.
After listening to her sister’s advice, Hope calmed down and asked, “Then, what can we do to help?” “Just wait.”

“Watt?” Hope was confused.Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Mala did not elaborate any further as she smiled at Hope in reply. Cedric just stood beside Maia quietly as he watched her, anticipating her next movement.
Maia’s glance went back to the lot inside the restaurant. Aiken approached Victoria and helped her up. “Are you okay?”
When Victoria noticed that it was Aiken, she wanted to reject his help. However, she also did not want to allow Yuna to continue to laugh at her, so decided to accept it.
“Thank you,” Victoria replied. With Aiken’s help, Victoria stood up slowly. As her left knee was in excruciating pain, she could only stand by leaning against Aiken.
“Mr. Cantrell, what is the meaning of this?” Yuna looked at his actions and questioned unhappily. “Nothing. | was merely just trying to help a pretty girl up. | couldn’t just leave her, could 1?” Aiken shook his head and commented. “Did you not see what she did to me?” Yuna snapped angrily, even though she was the one who had caused Victoria’s fall.
Aiken just gave her his usual charming smile. He did not expose the fact that he had seen what had happened. Instead he just said, “I’m going to be involved in your squabble, but | can’t just ignore the fact that someone has fallen and not help them. It’s just human nature.
“Moreover, I’m sure you know that this is Maya Cove and owned by HL Corporations. If something huge were to happen, we wouldn't be able to explain ourselves to Mr. Cedric, no? Even though | don’t know you well, we’ve acted in a few dramas together. So, how about you let this go for my sake?”
Aiken was unlike his usual easy-going self. When it comes to a situation like this, he would always put on a serious front. Victoria was also slightly surprised by how serious he was. Victoria’s manager also pulled her blouse slightly to ask her to stop. Since Aiken had given her a chance to rest her case, she
took it.
“Since you're asking me nicely. I'll stop pressing this issue. However, | don’t understand what you're thinking. You should pick someone better than some girl who chose to leave the Smith family.”
Aiken smiled. “I’m surprised that you care so much about my life and decisions.”
Yuna smiled and added, “I’m just worried about Vicky. Although she has left the family, she’s still part of the Smiths.” “Enough of your nonsense, Yuna! If you don’t leave me alone, I'll make sure to drown you in

Aiken restrained Victoria and said, “You should give it a rest. Your leg still hurts, right?”
Victoria just glared at him in annoyance.
“| look forward to working with you.” Yuna said before she left.
“Of course.” Aiken nodded earnestly. Aiken had good diplomacy and people skills, which was how he was able to survive in the industry for such a long time.
After Yuna had left, Victoria glared at Aiken. “I see that you're quite fond of her!”
She pushed Aiken away from her as she stumbled. Aiken immediately extended his hand to grab her to prevent her from falling over.
“Give it a rest, Vicky. If it weren’t for me, you would’ve been in more trouble! How could you mock me after I've helped you? Is this how the Smith family has taught you?”
