Chapter 225 I’m No Longer The One I Was
“Sis, wait for me, let me focus on driving first!”
“Alright, drive safely.”
“Don’t worry!”
After hanging up the phone, Maia threw her phone onto the sofa and lazily lay down. When Hope arrived, she got up to open the
door.
As soon as Hope saw Maia, she immediately exclaimed, “Sis, I heard from Buck that you’ve regained your memory. Do you
remember me now?”
Maia nodded, suppressing a smile, and asked, “Buck tells you everything. Is he my personal assistant or yours?”
“He’s definitely your personal assistant!” Hope quickly placed the things she was holding on the coffee table.
“Well, that makes sense. Buck can’t be your personal assistant. He should at least be the underground little boyfriend, right?”
Hope froze, blushing, and said, “Sis, what are you talking about? How can you tease me like this?”
“Did you forget you teased me just now?” Maia retorted, looking at Hope.
Hope quickly burst into laughter. “Hehe, Sis, you’re a mature lady, please forget what I did!” “Now tell me, what’s your
relationship with Buck?” Maia picked up a beer from the table, took a few sips, and asked Hope seriously.
“I–It’s just a friendship.” Hope sounded a bit weak.
“Are you sure? Buck told me... your relationship is not ordinary.”
“Really?” Hope, upon hearing Maia’s words, didn’t confess immediately. “Sis, did Buck really say that? Did he say our
relationship is not ordinary?”
Looking at Hope’s eager expression, Maia couldn’t help it and burst into laughter. Seeing Maia’s laughter, Hope suddenly
“Caught on, huh? Look at your anxious appearance just now. I set a small trap for you, and you jumped right into it.”
“Sis, I believed you! How could you trick me...”
“So, are you going to confess now?”

Hope, feeling a bit embarrassed, lowered her head and stammered. A
fter a moment, she whispered, “I do like Buck. Sis, you know, I’ve been growing up under the scrutiny of others. Although some
boys liked me, most of them were attracted to my appearance Such superficial affection is not something I would accept.
“Later, I went abroad to study acting, and I had no intention of falling in love. After entering the entertainment industry, it’s easy to
develop feelings through acting. Maybe I’ve played too many love scenes, so I can’t figure out my true feelings for Buck at the
moment...
Listening to Hope’s words, Maia nodded gently. “Indeed, there’s an abundance of fast romance nowadays. It’s good that you are
cautious. I believe Buck is also being cautious like you.”
Hope looked puzzled. “Sis, do you know something? Does Buck really like me?”
‘Silly girl, if he didn’t like you, would he willingly stay and take care of you?” Maia didn’t expect Hope to be slow in matters of love
too, which was quite different from the Hope on the
screen.
“But he never says anything. After my shoots, I often go to his place to eat and drink. I also noticed that our preferences are very
similar. The things he likes happen to be what I like! Plus, whenever I’m unhappy, I complain to him. I always thought he treated
me like a little sister, so... every time I think about it, I feel a bit depressed!“.
Maia couldn’t help but burst into laughter. If Hope knew that Buck was her fan, who knew her preferences very well, what would
her reaction be?
bound to be exposed, and Buck wouldn’t be able to hide it
forever.
“If he didn’t have feelings for you, why would he willingly let you in his place, and even listen to all your troubles?” Maia playfully
asked Hope.
“So, does Buck really like me? Why doesn’t he say it? It’s been so long. He’s being too cautious, isn’t he? If he says it, I’ll agree
immediately!”
The cautious Hope from just a moment ago became eager upon learning that Buck liked her. Maia found it amusing. Liking
someone was truly something hard to conceal.
Looking at Hope, Maia felt like she was seeing her past self. The warmth in her eyes exuded the beautiful atmosphere of love.
“So, should I help you ask Buck?” Maia teased, pretending to pick up her phone.
Hope, seeing Maia’s action, quickly stopped her, “Sis, don’t! You...don’t help me ask Buck. I’m a girl, how can girls be so
proactive? I’ll wait for Buck to tell me himself.”
Maia, looking at Hope’s eager yet reserved demeanor, laughed again “Hope, you’re holy 1 hope you remain lucky forever”
“Sis...” She immediately hugged Mala and said, “Sis, you are also lucky! Look at Cedric, he can’t wait to wait around you every
day. I can tell, Cedric really likes you a lot is, you must have fit it too, right?”
Mala didn’t deny it but nodded.
“Then why don’t you give Cedric a chance?”
Mala sat on the sofa and took a few sips of beer. “Would you give a chance to someone who has hurt you before? I loved him so
much back then, he was the only one in my world. I did everything for him, but what did I get?
“Endless hurt, the hurt from the people around him caused me to lose my child almost perished in that raging fire. Hope, I can’t
get over this...”
“I heard Buck talking about it. But he had amnesia, Sis. He doesn’t remember you. For him, you were a stranger. That’s why he
trusts the people he trusts and doubts you. Cedric is a victim too. He was injured and lost his memory for you. If you really think
about it, he is also a victim.”
Maia smiled bitterly, “Yes, he is also a victim. But sometimes, It’s just like this. We understand the logic, but we can’t get over it in
our hearts. He is now the one I wanted back then, but Fam no longer the one I was back then.”
