Blake hesitated, then added, “I’m sorry! I completely forgot about our
pretend relationship.”
Liam abruptly stood and approached her desk, “Blake, Cecilia shared some things at the hospital; I may need to return to my family soon. Regarding our arrangement, I might still need your assistance. If it’s
too much, we can stop.”
Blake tensed, pondering. After a brief pause, she inquired, “How much
longer do you need me?”
Liam’s silence lingered.
Blake continued, “Liam, remember. I have Kevin. I don’t want any
misunderstandings when he’s back. But I’ll help if you need me.
You’ve been there for me before.”
Liam nodded and smiled gently, “Alright. Since we’re friends, wh
Cecilia tell you? You’ve been unusually quiet. If something’s trou
you, I’m here.”
Blake hesitated, her thoughts drifting to the video Cecilia showed he depicting Kevin with a chilling, ruthless expression. His command had triggered a brutal action, reflecting a disturbing lack of concern
for human life.
“I’m okay,” she reassured, though her voice lacked conviction.
Their conversation was interrupted by a knock on the door. Susan entered, face taut with displeasure while holding a beautifully
wrapped gift box, “Ms. Samford sent this dessert from The Deli. She
thought you might not have eaten enough at lunch.” Having delivered the message, Susan promptly left.
Liam commented, “Cecilia seems to be reaching out to you. What’s
your take on her?”
Disinterested in the box, Blake replied flatly, “I have nothing to do with
her. Mya is the only sister I acknowledge.”
She then opened the package to find a variety of exquisite pastries. She did not eat any; instead, she rewrapped them and took them out
to share with her colleagues. Blake announced, “These pastries are
from The Deli. Enjoy.”
“Thank you! You’re so kind. It’s not easy to get takeouts from The
Deli. They’re always in high demand.”
“Exactly! Last time I tried to order, they were all sold out.”
Blake added, “I wasn’t around much recently, and you all have been
working hard. I appreciate all your help. Thank Ms. Samford for
she’s the one who sent these.”
Upon returning, Blake noticed Liam’s observant gaze. “Why look at like that? Is there something on my face?” she inquired, touching h
cheek.

Liam observed thoughtfully, “Blake, you seem different from before.’
Puzzled, she asked, “Different how? I’m still the same Blake.”
Liam noted, “You don’t smile as much, and you’re intensely focused
on your work.”
Blake offered a small smile, “Mr. Xander, people evolve. I’m more
#
driven now.”
Liam’s smirk was tinged with approval, “Good. Whatever your goals
are, you have my support.”
Blake nodded. With a newfound determination, she said, “Alright, Mr.
Xander. The day’s not over yet. Shall we continue to work diligently?”.
“Absolutely,” Liam agreed.
