Kevin picked up the cup of coffee nearby and took a sip. The bitter taste spread in his mouth. Without
looking at Blake, he casually picked up a document and glanced at it, “Working for Cecilia for a while
has made you savvier. Nice! You’re getting smarter!”
Blake almost lost it, “Who are you mocking? Listen, Kevin. Even though you’re my immediate
supervisor, I’m not afraid of you. I have someone backing me up.”
“Are you using others to intimidate me?” Kevin asked.
Blake retorted, “We’re both employees. Why do you have the right to look down on me? You exploit me
like this every day. I’m a human being, not a beast. Being constantly exploited like this by you all the
time, is there any point of living?”
Kevin frowned, his tone turning cold, “Enough of your nonsense. Let’s talk about work. I’m busy.”
Cough. Cough.
Kevin coughed a few times with his fist clenched halfway. His voice
became hoarse.
Blake squinted, thinking, ‘Is this guy catching a cold? Whatever. Why
should I care? Doesn’t he have his assistant? And there’s also Ms.
Parker by his side!’
Blake’s expression turned serious when talking about work. She
pulled a chair and leaned toward Kevin. Without reservation, she
recounted everything Cecilia had said to her at the hospital, “Why do
you think Cecilia wants to bet with me on whether the wedding goes smoothly? Is she trying to crash
the wedding? Or is she planning to send someone to cause trouble?
“I just hope it’s not Mr. Jardin’s ex-wife, but I think that’s impossible. Yvonne is still recovering in the
hospital, so she can’t attend the wedding. Besides, with so many bodyguards checking every exit on
the wedding day, it’s going to look like a military operation. People who don’t know might think they are
guarding prisoners!”
Kevin shot Blake a sharp look, and she immediately thought she had said something wrong. She
awkwardly covered her mouth and shut it tight. It was the first time that Kevin did not lecture her.
Instead, he just looked at her with a gaze that she had never seen in his eyes before.
Kevin tapped his fingers on the tabletop thoughtfully. Then, he stood up and grabbed his suit from the
chair. While putting it on, he warned her, “Watch your mouth and stop spreading rumors everywhere.
You better pray there are no hiccups at the wedding because if Mrs. Jardin really bolts, you’ll be the
first one Mr. Jardin comes after!” novelbin
Blake gulped nervously, “T-That can’t be! I think Mr. Jardin is pretty
kind!”
Kevin took out his car keys and glanced at her sideways, “Without Mrs. Jardin, who do you think in
Ventropolis could keep you safe? I almost forgot to tell you: start using that noggin of yours. Right here,
right now, think about why the boss himself chose you to plan this wedding. Give me an answer when I
get back.”
Blake was about to pass out with her eyes wide, “Mr. Harrison, please don’t leave me! I’m scared all
alone. Why do you keep saying these
things to freak me out?”
When Kevin opened the door, those outside overheard all of Blake’s words. Kevin said, “If you step out
of the office, we will deduct your salary three times this month.”
Blake felt as if she would be better off digging a hole right there and burying herself on the spot. She
thought, ‘How did I catch the boss’s eye for this? It’s a trap! A deadly trap! Did Madelyn really decide to
run away from the wedding? If she bolts, Mr. Jardin will make minced
meat out of me!’
To confirm this, Blake gave Madelyn a call. Madelyn picked up the call and asked, “What’s up, Blake?”
