Chapter 1163

Chapter 1163

Blake held onto Kevin’s arm. The two of them walked intimately hand in hand to the undergroundparking lot. Blake asked, “Where are you

going today? When will you be back? Can you pick me up after I finish work tonight?”

Kevin replied, “It depends. I’m not usually this free.”

Blake was unhappy. “Kevin Harrison, you’re not working in the

company anymore. What are you busy with every day? You promised

yesterday to give us a try. Why can’t you prioritize me? Or you can tell

me what you’re busy with!”.

Kevin’s current plans involved shady and nefarious deeds, so there

was no way he could tell Blake about them.

Zach was still in a coma, and Kevin was not really sure what he

should do next.novelbin

Cecilia had already started making big moves, preparing to take over

the company. So, Kevin believed what he needed to do now was to

hurry and finish what needed to be done.

Kevin thought, ‘Blake staying by my side will only be a burden. Since

there are things I can’t tell her, I’ll wait for her enthusiasm to fade, and

she’ll leave on her own.’

“Just focus on your own work,” Kevin responded.

It was during the morning rush hour, and the traffic was a bit congested. Blake held the yogurt in herhand, looking unhappy.

She thought, ‘I’m afraid I might never experience Kevin comforting me.’

They arrived near the company ten minutes before Blake had to clock in at the company. They wereincredibly punctual. Jardin Tower was just nearby; it would take her only three minutes to get there.

Kevin asked, “What are you still waiting for?”

When Kevin turned his head to look at Blake, she leaned in and kissed

him near his mouth. “Call me when you’re done with your stuff.

Whether you come to look for me, or I go and look for you, I’m okay

with both.”

Kevin was left stunned by her kiss.

After unbuckling her seatbelt, Blake held herself and ran to the

company’s entrance against the wind. She managed to clock in on

time.

She looked back and saw Kevin was still there.

The air conditioning was on in the office. Everyone seemed somber

as if something huge had happened. She whispered to an editor,”

What’s going on?”

The editor responded, “It’s Mr. Xander. Not sure what happened, but

he scolded Maggie. She’s still crying in the pantry. Hard to believe Mr. Xander could be so terrifyingwhen he’s angry.”

Blake pondered, ‘Liam got angry? How’s that possible? He’s always been very calm and gentle.’

Blake knocked on Liam’s office door and saw him sitting at his desk.

When he turned around, she was slightly taken aback. “W-What

happened? Why are your eyes so red? Did you pull another all-nighter

writing?”

Liam saw the clothes she was wearing, stood up quickly, and

suddenly went to hug Blake. He lowered his head, and his eyes were

filled with pain.

He slowly spoke in a husky, low voice, “Can you… not be with him?

Whatever he does for you, I can do too. Can you be with me instead?”
