Blake walked out of the room with her phone. She had unknowingly felt more and more familiar with this once unfamiliar place, almost treating it like her own home. After she left the room, she did not forget to close the door, "Liam, I need to go to the company after eating. Mr. Harrison may have some arrangements."Liam served her a bowl of chicken soup, "I already took the day off for you in the morning. Finish your meal, and later we can go to the company together. There's still time."Blake replied, "Okay."After finishing the meal, Blake went to change her clothes before going to the company in Liam's car.After arriving at the parking lot of the company building, Blake went straight to the office. Without hesitation, she walked to Kevin's office. She stood at the door and decided to knock before going in.Kevin said, "Come in."There were not many people in the secretary department office now; only a few of them were working. Zach had just held his wedding and allowed every
Kevin stopped the pen he was twirling and leaned back in his chair. His gaze was icy, "Hand me the transfer documents in ten minutes, and I'll sign them.""Sure." Blake turned around and left, forcefully closing the door behind her. There were only a few people working overtime in the office. In less than ten minutes, she had printed the documents and tossed them in front of Kevin.He signed his name and said, "Handle the handover of your work yourself. I'll notify the HR department. Starting tomorrow, report downstairs."As if deliberately venting her anger, Blake said, "No need to wait until tomorrow. I'll go right now."Kevin flipped through the documents in his hands. Without looking at Blake, he said, "You may leave. Remember to close the door."Blake left without closing the door intentionally. Coincidentally, she bumped into Susan, who was going to Kevin's office. She looked at Blake provocatively as if saying she was glad that Blake finally left.Blake did not back down;
Suddenly, Blake's phone was flooded with notifications from her group chat.[Breaking news! It's bad. Today, someone from HR leaked the information that Mr. Harrison is resigning. Even the HR manager doesn't dare to approve it.][What? Mr. Harrison is resigning? Oh no, my idol is leaving? If he leaves, other women out there will have the chance to pursue him. So annoying. What should I do to keep my man?][Since when did Mr. Harrison become your man? Clearly, he's my husband!][I'm not like some people who change their minds all the time. Weren't you into Mr. Jardin? Why are you stooping to steal my man?][He's married. But going back to the point, will Jardin Corporation shut down soon? Mr. Harrison is actually resigning! My goodness, I can't even imagine.]***Liam returned to his office from a meeting with the editors. He saw Blake, who was troubled and constantly making calls. Concerned, Liam approached and asked, "Who are you calling? Is it very urgent?"Blake kept hearing
Blake felt disappointed.Kevin said, "After I leave, the position is yours. With Cecilia looking after you, you can do whatever you want in the company. No one will dare tell you what to do."Blake met his gaze and asked, "What do you mean? What do you mean by saying the position is mine? Kevin, what are you planning? Are you using me again?"Kevin stared at her for a long time. Suddenly, he saw an incoming call displayed on the car's screen. He said, "Don't overthink it. I'll be going abroad for a while. The company's affairs are none of my business anymore. Get out of the car now."Blake saw that the incoming call was from Audrey. Her heart sank. She was irritated and wanted to curse.She wanted to know what plans he still had that she was not aware of.She thought, 'But who am I to question him?'Then, she got out of the car. After the car drove away, Liam walked over to her and asked, "Are you okay?"Blake shook her head, "I'm fine."In the following week, Blake did not se
Blake said, "Thank you, I'm heading out now. If anything comes up, I'll message you."Liam responded, "Be careful."Blake, with a black leather bag in hand, was wearing a dark coat that reached her knees. As she took the elevator down and walked through the lobby, she coincidentally ran into Susan, who was chatting happily with the people from the secretarial department.Blake thought, 'What an unlucky day.'She thought about pretending not to see Susan and quietly leaving. However, holding a cup of coffee, Susan did not want to miss the chance to show off to Blake.Susan stood in front of Blake to block her way, "I didn't expect to see you still in the company. If I didn't know better, I'd think you got fired! Tsk, tsk... Looks like you're doing quite well working as an assistant to an editor-in-chief!"Blake noticed the expensive clothes and ladies' watch Susan was flaunting, all from Jardin Corporation's latest collection, with prices ranging from two to three hundred thousand
Kevin was in thin pajamas, and Blake felt cold just looking at him. They were both in the large supermarket just outside the residential area, as Blake voluntarily pushed a cart and walked alongside Kevin.Blake said, "Are you still informed about what's happening in the company? StartReading's employees don't really play a crucial role at the headquarters of Jardin Corporation. Although StartReading's profits are decent, they aren't even one percent of what Jardin Corporation makes."Kevin... Do you still have feelings for me?"As soon as she said this, she regretted it. She carefully observed Kevin's expression, only to find him focused on choosing tomatoes instead of paying any attention to her.She felt irritated.When Kevin was about to put a tomato into the cart, Blake immediately picked it up, saying, "Are you silly? This tomato isn't fresh. Let me pick them. How many do you want?"Kevin dusted off his hands before taking out a black wallet from his pocket and throwing it
Blake watched as Kevin's tall figure walked away. For some reason, she felt like Kevin had changed a bit. After three seconds, it suddenly hit her like a ton of bricks. She mumbled, "He... It seems like he didn't mind my chatter! Usually, he'd be scolding me by now." Blake felt inexplicably happy inside.Kevin was not around, so Blake checked out everything in his home. She noticed he had not even tossed out the indoor slippers she wore before. This pair of indoor slippers was the first thing Kevin had bought for her.She looked it up online and found the slippers were custom-made. The official price was over five hundred dollars. All her slippers at home had been cheaply bought from street vendors. She immediately took them off and put on the warm slippers.Half an hour after Kevin left, Blake heard a knock on the door. She turned off the stove and cautiously checked through the peephole. It was that frail lady, Audrey. 'What's she here for?'Blake checked her appearance in the en
Kevin seemed to be unsurprised by Cecilia acting borderline obsessive and insane, as if he had expected it all along."What a damn eyesore," Cecilia said, plucking the silver ring off Zach's ring finger and casually tossing it on the ground."That belongs to Mr. Jardin, Cecilia. Don't you think he'll punish you after he wakes up?" Kevin asked.Cecilia said casually, "Madelyn keeps hurting Zach more and more. With his personality, he won't let Madelyn, that useless bitch, off the hook. Anyway, I'll allow you to visit Zach since you've been working with him for many years, but don't bring in anyone else."I can't let Madelyn off easily for attempting to kill Zach. Soon, I'll report it to the police, have her arrested, and make sure she spends the rest of her life in jail. I want her to see how I am with Zach and regret it for the rest of her life!"Kevin furrowed his brow, "Ms. Samford, I'm afraid this might disappoint you. Mr. Jardin anticipated this earlier. Before the wedding, he
