Although Rosario had been dead for many years, she had still been able to sponsor a student. Sparing her life was the greatest kindness Zach could give her.Kevin commented, "Actually, I think it's odd that the person behind this..."His tone became more serious as he spoke, "Do you know who's behind this, Mr. Jardin? Could it be Cecilia?"Zach stared outside thoughtfully. He said, "Cecilia has grown a little stronger and now she thinks I can't do anything to her. But there's no rush, I'll take back what is mine soon. What has she been doing recently?"Kevin told him, "Every day, Cecilia goes to work for us while trying to buy shares of other shareholders behind our backs. Besides Cecilia, the Young family should have the most shares. If the Young family and Cecilia were to team up, I'm afraid..."Zach put out his cigarette and interrupted him, "She said I was the one who made her this way. She's getting quite ambitious, but she still isn't worthy of taking over the Jardin Corpora
At midnight, Madelyn coughed, and Zach immediately called for the nurse. After the doctors and nurse came in, they gave her a complete body checkup.Zach asked worriedly, "How is she?"The doctor saw the data, and his expression relaxed. He told Zach, "Mrs. Jardin is out of danger, but she'll need to stay in the hospital for observation for a while. If there are no further problems, she can be discharged.""When will she wake up?" Zach asked.The doctor shook his head thoughtfully. He said, "She should be waking up soon. However, there might be other complications based on Mrs. Jardin's previous medical history. This time, she inhaled a large amount of harmful gasses, which may have caused her to be in a coma for a long time. Her condition is still well, so she may wake up in a few days."Zach had heard of this many times. The doctor saw his expression and stopped talking. They then left the sick ward.However, not long after they left, Madelyn regained her consciousness. She cal
After the meeting ended, outside the door, Cecilia heard the voices of a few directors who had not yet left the meeting room."Our CEO is really neglecting the company more and more. He's been having his assistant manage the company's operations for so long now.""I know right? I really don't know what the CEO's thinking. He's neglecting the entire company just for a single woman."Blake was very busy these days and had no time to slack off. She occasionally followed Cecilia to travel around and learned a lot working under her.After the lesson learned from last time, Blake would bring hangover medicine with her whenever she went to business events, so as not to end up drunk again.Blake rarely saw Kevin in the company these days. Even Susan, who spent most of her time working in the company, had not seen Kevin in the company for a long time.Blake followed behind Cecilia, and the two walked to the elevator. Cecilia said, "I'll be leaving the company for a while later on, no need
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 hospitalized again, 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, and 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 c
The voice said, "You have to get better quickly. Once you're well, we'll spend all this money and buy delicious food for you."Cecilia quickly came back to her senses and said, "Our clients' matters are definitely the top priority. Blake, after you fetch the medicine for me later, please get me my laptop."Blake did not try to dissuade Cecilia. "Okay, I got it."After Blake took the medicine for Cecilia, she drove to the company.Cecilia used her phone to assist Blake in unlocking the door to her office. Blake then walked to Cecilia's desk and indeed saw a laptop. When she found the laptop bag and unplugged the laptop's power cord, the laptop screen suddenly lit up. To her surprise, the screen background was actually a picture of Zach's back, standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with one hand in his pocket. The sky in the picture was pitch-black. Upon closer look, Blake noticed something. Reflected on the floor-to-ceiling window was a bed, surrounded by luxurious decora
That man thought, 'Cecilia is indeed ruthless; otherwise, I wouldn't have chosen her.'Women like Cecilia, very calm at work, tended to be dominant in relationships. They had zero tolerance for any form of betrayal. Such individuals were absolutely ruthless when confronting their enemies.However, women like that had a fatal weakness—they could be distracted by the men they loved.Blake still did not know that something happened to Madelyn. She had been busy these days and did not have the chance to call Madelyn.After some hesitation, Blake decided to call Madelyn.Listening to the weak voice on the phone, Blake asked with concern, "Madelyn, your voice sounds a little off. What's wrong? Are you sick? Which hospital are you in? I'll come visit you."After Madelyn had a high fever, she woke up. Fortunately, her high fever had subsided four hours ago.Zach was holding Madelyn's phone for her. She glanced at him and remembered that Blake was afraid of Zach. Just like Mya, whenever
Blake said, "I'm fine, don't worry. I'm sharp-witted, and I know what needs to be done."Kevin raised his hand to check the time. He turned to knock on the door of the ward before opening the door to walk in. "Time's up. Blake, you can leave now."Blake responded, "I don't want to leave. I haven't finished talking to Madelyn yet."Madelyn said, "It's fine. Zach won't be back for a while. Just stay here with me for a little longer."Blake agreed, "That's right."Kevin felt Blake was taking advantage of her relationship with Madelyn.He nodded, "Mrs. Jardin, if you feel unwell, call me. I'll be just outside the door."Madelyn replied, "Okay."Kevin glanced at Blake's triumphant expression and chose to ignore her as he left the ward.This floor was fully guarded, and regular people could not just enter easily. Kevin listened to the laughter coming from the ward and thought, 'I have to admit, Blake's good at flattering people.'About half an hour later, Blake, afraid that Zach mi
Zach said, "Cecilia's goal is to sow discord, and you've done well on this matter."Blake thought, 'What? Is Mr. Jardin praising me?'She turned back to look and saw Zach had already walked far away. 'Did that really happen?'She could not believe that Zach could be so nice. Back when she was working under Kevin, she would get scolded three or four times a day. She was very happy that she was actually being praised today.Madelyn, seeing Zach returning so quickly after Blake just left not long ago, assumed that the two had met at the elevator door.Zach frowned when he noticed the box of strawberry cream cake in Madelyn's hands. He immediately took it from her. "Did you forget what the doctor said? You can't eat these things as you've just woken up."Madelyn responded, "I just had a little bite. Did you say anything to Blake when you met her just now?"Zach helped Madelyn lie down on the bed and covered her with the blanket. He then checked the time on his watch. "You still have
