Chapter 1118

Blake received a call from the hospital at three o’clock in the

afternoon.

She was working on the Eternal Seasons matter. Upon hearing the news of Cecilia being hospitalizedagain, she immediately delegated her tasks to other staff and drove to the Community Hospital.

After Blake got out of the car, she hurried to Cecilia’s ward. She stood

just outside the door when a cup thrown from inside the ward nearly

hit her.

Inside the room, Cecilia furiously said, “Get out, all of you. A bunch of

useless people! You can’t even keep a baby alive? Get out of my sight!

Blake wondered, ‘Child? So Ms. Samford was pregnant? Whose child

could it be?’

Previously, when Cecilia was hospitalized, Blake did not know what

happened. Since it was a matter involving her superior, Cecilia, andnovelbin

she was just a normal employee, she did not delve deep into understanding the situation.

Blake covered her mouth at the door, looking shocked, not daring to

make any sound.

Lately, Cecilia had been wearing loose clothes, frequently asking

Blake to buy blueberries, and preferred sour food.

Blake had suspected that Cecilia might be pregnant. She never

thought it turned out to be true.

She pondered, ‘Could this child possibly be… No, it couldn’t be. It absolutely couldn’t be Mr. Jardin’schild. He loves Madelyn so much, he’d never betray her.

‘If he doesn’t love Madelyn, why would he spend so much effort to

prepare such a grand wedding? He even handled many of the

wedding matters personally.’

A nurse hurriedly walked out of the ward with a medical tray. Blake

suddenly snapped back to reality. She quickly composed herself and pretended not to have heardanything.

Blake walked in and saw a mess on the floor. She wondered what had

happened here before she arrived.

“M-Ms. Samford, are you okay?”, she stuttered, as if trying to hide her

uneasiness.

Cecilia masked the anger she had shown just now and put on a pale smile as she looked at Blake.“What’s wrong, Blake? Did I scare you?”

Blake shook her head. “No. Ms. Samford, what happened to your face? Are you okay? Did somethinghappen? Do you need me to call the police for you?”

There were bruises on the corners of Cecilia’s lips, and her left leg was suspended in bandages,suggesting her situation was not good.

Blake could also vaguely see a large area of bruising on Cecilia’s arm

under her sleeve.

Cecilia said, “The police are already handling this matter. Blake, I hope you can keep this matterconfidential. The company still has several important projects in hand, and we can’t afford any delays.If you

have time, go back to the company now and unplug the USB drive from my computer. I need to workon the contract documents.”

Blake responded, “Considering your current condition, you should focus on resting now. No matterwhat happens at the company, your health should be the number one priority. You can only spend themoney you earn once you’re in good health, am I right?”

When Cecilia heard her last sentence, her gaze toward Blake suddenly intensified. In her mind she sawa childish voice, accompanied by a

small face.
