Will You Marry Me, Again

Chapter 196 A Deliberate Plan

“Municipal Hospital.” Errol was terrified when he heard what Cedric said. The video call was cut off before Mala could say anything.

“Errol!” Cedric ordered, “Municipal Hospital. Now.” “Roger.” Gilbert started driving toward the hospital.

Celia was on the hospital bed and Errol was standing in the corner. It was plain to see that he was in misery. Maia looked at him, then at Celia’s agent and assistant, who were wiping tears. Then, she took both of them out of the room.

The moment the door closed, she asked them, “What happened?”

Celia’s assistant wiped her tears and said, “Celia would always rest in the makeshift standby room when she’s not shooting a scene. Lately, she seems more exhausted than usual.

“She's a light sleeper, so she doesn't like it when people disturb her sleep. Yesterday, she went to rest as usual, but she wasn’t in the standby room when | went to tell her that her scene was up. | called her immediately, but she didn’t answer.

“| got worried. So, | told the filming crew about what happened and we called the police. They searched for her in the hills and found her in the woods. She... She was...”

The assistant was overwhelmed with emotion and burst into tears. The agent was slightly calmer, so she continued where the assistant left off.

her. We're not sure how many men

“It was a mess when the police found had been involved, but Celia’s costume was torn to pieces, and there was blood everywhere on her legs.

“We sent her to the hospital at once and found out that she had miscarried. They got the culprits‘ DNA samples. The cops will get them soon enough!”

“Why didn’t you let me know right there and then?” Celia’s agent lowered her head. “I only just found out about what happened. You got here before | even had time to process it.” The assistant kept wiping her tears. “It’s all my fault. This wouldn’t have happened if | had been by her side!”

Maia reassured her. “You might not have been able to protect her even if you were with her. You wouldn’t have been strong enough to fight against multiple assailants. Were there any

witnesses?” Celia’s assistant shook her head. “Everyone was focused on the shooting of the scene. Ms. +15 BONUS

So, the culprit was aware of Celia’s shooting schedule and ordered the henchmen to take her away when she was having a break. The deed was also done in such a way that no one in the crew would notice.

It was clearly a deliberate plan. “What should we do, Ms Maia? Ms. Celia isn’t going to be able to handle it when she wakes up

“Make sure everything is taken care of. Arrange for a psychotherapist and suppress the news. We have to ensure this doesn’t get out.” It was vital that Celia’s reputation remain untarnished.

Celia’s agent said hesitantly, “I-I’m afraid it’s too late for that.”

Maia’s phone buzzed at that moment. She took it out and saw that the news about Celia’s predicament was already a top trending topic on Twitter!

It was also one of the top trending searches on the internet! People who were on the scene gave a brief rundown of the unfortunate event and attached some pictures of the police searching for Celia and the moment when she was sent to the hospital.

While the pictures were blurry and only captured the side of her face, her costume was a dead giveaway. Netizens recognized it from previous scenes that she had shot on the hill!

The online discourse was relentless. Most expressed concern and sympathy, while others were downright nasty. A flurry of assumptions and sarcastic remarks flooded the internet.

“| was completely baffled when | read this piece of news. | can’t imagine myself in the same situation. It’s horrifying. What on earth are the filming crew doing? Celia was a superstar. Why wasn’t there someone with her at all times?”

“| beg you, officers. Seize the culprits and make sure they have a taste of our justice system! They did it in broad daylight. I’m sorry Celia had to go through with this. Here’s hoping she'll be fine!”

“First, Zera was murdered. Now, Celia was raped and miscarried as a result. What’s going on with the entertainment industry? Furthermore, Starlight Entertainment owns Celia. Where’s Maia through all this?”

“What would you have her say, pal? She’s dealing with the situation now. Why should she explain herself to some random guy on the internet?”

“Celia? Isn’t she that super innocent-looking actress? Heh heh. How did it feel when they had their way with her, | wonder? Hahaha!”

“The hillbillies really bumped into something good there. I’ve wanted my way with Celia for a

Maia frowned as she clutched her phone tightly. Then, she heard Cedric’s deep voice. “Suppress the news about Celia at all costs,” he said, firmly.

Maia turned to Celia’s agent and assistant. “Go back and do what must be done. Don’t let anyone know about Celia’s situation. Got it?”

Both of them nodded and sighed. Maia turned her gaze to Cedric once more after they left. “Celia’s predicament is no mere accident. | suspect it’s just like what happened to Zera. Somebody had it in for her.”

Then, the ward door was opened slowly. A heartbroken Errol walked out with his head lowered. His tears flowed freely when he laid his eyes on Maia.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

She was disheartened to see him in this state. She frowned and said, “Errol...”

He was in deep sorrow. He held his head, crouched, and struck himself fiercely. He was mute, but it was clear from his actions that he blamed himself for this tragedy.

Maia stepped forward and stopped him at once. “Keep it together, Errol!” He raised his head and looked at her, tears flowing.

“It's not your fault, Errol. You’ll only make it worse when she comes around and sees you in this state. You need to be strong for her. | Know you love her, and it is because of that you must hold it together.”

There was no use crying over spilled milk. It was important to arrest the culprits, but it’s equally important to stabilize Celia and help her to move on from this tragedy!
