Chapter 981

It was a quiet and peaceful night. Without any warning, it started to snow.

Fred held onto a sleeping Mya. After not seeing her for a few days, she had gained a lot of weight. Theother women were all slender, while she was as plump as a partridge. Fred had never seen a womannot take care of their figure before.

When Blake drove by, she saw the car plate on Fred’s car. Her eyes widened as she saw the familiar

person in the car.

‘It’s him! What is he doing here?’ She thought. Blake immediately lowered her head and avoidedstaring at Fred when she thought of how he had used her.

Kevin walked over and called out to Fred, “Mr. Turner.”

Fred glanced at him and asked, “Did he send you?”

Kevin did not answer. Instead, he said, “Mr. Jardin doesn’t plan to interfere with the affairs between theHarper and Turner families. I’ve come to settle a different issue.”

Fred walked past him. He had initially planned to bring Blake with him but chose to let her go. All thebodyguards started to drive off.

Blake hugged herself as the cold wind made her shiver. When she saw Fred, she snorted coldly beforeimmediately leaving. Kevin, on the other hand, was a man of cold efficiency. He opened the door andsaid to Blake, “Come here. Get in the car.’

Blake retorted, “Tch, who would want to be in your car?”

Kevin’s face immediately turned ugly, and he explained, “According to the latest weather report, therewill be a blizzard in two hours. All airports have stopped. It would take five hours for you to walk there.If you don’t want to freeze to death…”

“I…” Blake wanted to say she had a chauffeur, but none was around. Before Kevin could finish talking,Blake dashed into the car. After that, she nodded at Kevin before putting on the seatbelt. She then said,“You’re right, Mr. Harrison. Since you’re trying to be kind, I won’t let you miss out on this chance.”

Kevin proceeded to shut the door. When he turned around, he smiled. As the car started to move,Blake asked, “What’s going to happen to Mya? She was tortured the last time she was there. Therewould be no mercy for her if she were to return again.”

Kevin turned the steering wheel and turned on the headlights. He told her, “She’ll be fine. You’re theone who’s in trouble. You skipped work without any reason. Do you still want this month’s bonus?”

Blake clutched her seatbelt tightly and argued, “I’ve already sent my resignation notice to your mailbox.I’m preparing to take the Civil Service Exams. Besides, I think this job is not suitable for me.

‘Being bled dry every day is too much. Besides, Zach and Kevin aren’t good people. They’re using meto keep track of Mya while pretending to take care of her. Yet, I foolishly followed their orders. I madeGrace worried for so long, and now even Simon is in the hospital due to complications from anger,’Blake thought. She would not be able to forgive herself if she had to see his face every day at work.

Kevin hesitated before saying, “Alright. According to regular resignation procedures, I will

approve it, but a month’s processing is required for the early resignation. You need to finish all yourwork by this month.”

Blake interjected, “I can hand the work over to Susan, and then I’m going to leave immediately.”

Kevin furrowed his brows and said, “If you want to resign, you must follow regular procedures. After amonth has passed, no one will stop you if you want to leave.”

Blake obliged, “I’ll stay for one more month then.”

However, she feared her last month would be terrible. She imagined that she would be tortured todeath by Kevin.

On their journey home, Blake was oddly quiet. While staring at the familiar path, she stared at Kevin insurprise and asked, “How do you know where I live?”

Kevin answered, “You don’t need to know.”

When they arrived at their destination, the Harper residence still had their lights on. Kevin got out of thecar and walked quite a distance before Blake could remember she needed to get out. She asked again,“Kevin, how do you know where my house is?”novelbin

Kevin locked his car and scolded, “You’re going against your superiors before even resigning?”

Blake thought he was amazing and suspected Kevin had planted a tracker on her. Kevin opened thedoor and saw some strangers in the house. There was also a doctor in a white coat. The doctor tookdown his stethoscope when he heard someone come in. He greeted Kevin, “Mr. Harrison.”

Kevin walked over and asked, “What’s the situation?”

The doctor shook his head and said, “We found that besides superficial injuries, the patient’s chesttissue was somewhat hardened, and her heart rate was irregular. According to our

preliminary diagnosis, it seems that she may have breast cancer.”

Blake saw the unconscious person wrapped in bandages and rushed over quickly, “Grace! Whathappened to my aunt? Wasn’t she fine at home? Why is she hurt?”

‘What happened during the brief time that I was out?’ Blake wondered.

“Who did this?” She finally asked.
