Blake could not refute what Cecilia said at all. She could not even
utter a word. Cecilia continued to press on her, saying, “Blake,
Madelyn isn’t that great. How about managing the company with me?
I’m the CEO, and you’ll be the Deputy CEO. Jardin Corporation belongs
to us.’
Seeing that she was still so stubborn, Blake shook off her hand and
said harshly, “Don’t try to brainwash me and tempt me with these
pretty words. I know what you’re up to. I just came here today to see
if you’re dead.”
The bodyguard brought in the washed fruits and placed them on the
bedside table next to Blake.
Blake stood up without looking at Cecilia. She was lost in her
thoughts, ‘What did I actually expect? That she’d change? Her greed
will only gradually become more uncontrollable. She seems to have
lost her mind and wants to hurt Madelyn.’
She said, “I thought I could persuade you, but you’re beyond help.
Keep your fruits to yourself; I’m worried they’re poisoned.”
Cecilia shouted, “Blake!”
Blake ignored her and angrily left. In the ward, Cecilia suddenly got
out of bed. The pain and weakness in her legs caused her to fall. The bodyguard nearby helped her up,
“Be careful, Ms. Samford.”
“You useless piece of garbage. You can’t even keep her around. What
good are you?” Cecilia slapped the bodyguard hard.
When she thought about the child she was pregnant with, she
suppressed her emotions.
After Blake walked out of the hospital, Liam was already waiting at
the entrance. She opened the front passenger seat door. Liam asked, ”
What’s wrong? Things didn’t go well?”
She replied, “Let’s go back. I don’t want to talk about it.”
Liam saw that Blake was in a bad mood and did not ask about it
further. Instead, he tried to comfort her. “Blake, why haven’t you
agreed to marry me? Is it because you’re still concerned about Mr.
Jardin’s wife?
“I’ve already had people look for her. When we find her, my people will
protect her secretly. Rest assured, nothing unexpected will happen.”
Blake frowned at him and raised her voice, “What did you say? You
sent people to find Madelyn? But no one knows her whereabouts
except for Cecilia!
“Didn’t I tell you that after sorting out the matter with Cecilia, Kai will
be able to find Madelyn? Won’t what you do alert Cecilia? What if she
finds out about it? Wouldn’t it put Madelyn in a more dangerous
situation?” NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
Looking at the road ahead, Liam focused on driving. He instinctively
said, “It won’t.”
Blake squinted, “How do you know it won’t? Do you know something?”
Liam tightened his grip on the steering wheel. His palms suddenly became sweaty. He pursed his lips,
“No, you’re overthinking it.”
Blake nodded. She felt a little guilty when she thought about how she
had occasionally doubted him. That was because Liam was the first person who unconditionally
believed in her and treated her so well.
Her voice softened as she said, “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have doubted you. It’s just that I’ve been too
nervous lately. I always suspect Cecilia
and the people around me.
“I’m really sorry. Liam, besides you, I don’t know who to trust anymore!

“It’s okay.”
Liam said inwardly, ‘I’m sorry, Blake Forgive me; this is the first time I’ve lied to you.
‘And it will also be the last time!
‘I want to be a bit selfish this time. I just want to keep you by my side.’
When Blake returned to the company, she would occasionally contact
Kai secretly.
