Chapter 1248
Blake thought, ‘The person Cecilia is afraid of? Her Achilles’s heel?’
She might not know Cecilia’s weakness, but she knew who could
really get under her skin. There was this saying that everyone had
one. And for Cecilia, the only person who could keep her in check was
Zach.
Blake stood by the open door, bowed in gratitude, and said, “Thank
you, Dr. Stewart. I have an idea of what to do now.”
Kai walked to the bedside quietly. Seeing Lana was about to wake up, he gently held and coaxed her.
Lana asked, “What’s wrong?”
Kai smiled, “Nothing. Go back to sleep.”
His gaze deepened as he stared at the illuminated desk lamp, ‘Zach, M know you wouldn’t back
yourself into a corner. Actually, you’ve
orchestrated all of this. Regardless of Cecilia or Madelyn, it’s al within your plan. Otherwise, why would
I say you’re cunning?
‘Kevin was indeed a part of your plan, a pawn in it. However, y put all your chips on Blake this time.
She’s the crucial piece, isn’t s The beginning of that wedding was actually the start of your schen
As the person who knew Zach the best, Kevin surprisingly did not figure out exactly when Zach learned
about the connection between
Blake and Cecilia. Kai thought, ‘Zach, you’re really something! You’ve
schemed everyone, and even you are a part of the plan this time.
Hope that things work out in your favor.’
As Blake drove home, she suddenly noticed someone walking toward her with a distressed look. That
person was none other than Liam. She thought, ‘Why is he showing up here at this hour? And in this
freezing weather, too?’
She parked the car on the side of the road, quickly got out, and jogged over to him. She asked, “Liam,
do you know what time it is now? Why
are you here?”
Liam coughed gently a few times, “I couldn’t stop worrying about you. Is everything sorted out?”
Blake avoided eye contact. It seemed like there was hesitation in her heart, and she was reluctant to
share it with him. So, she changed the subject and said, “Looks like it’s about to rain. Let’s head back.”
Back at the apartment, Blake turned on the heat. Then, she went to the kitchen and poured a glass of
water for Liam. She handed him the
glass, “Have some to warm yourself up.”
She walked over and pulled open the curtain; it was almost daylight outside. She was exhausted from
the day. So, she plopped down on the sofa next to Liam, grabbed some fruits from the tray on the table,
wiped them with her hands, and started eating.
She barely had anything to eat the whole day. On the way to buy pastina for Lana, she grabbed a piece
of bread and casually had a few bites to get by.
“Blake, is everything going smoothly?” Liam asked.
Blake held onto a pillow, nestled against the sofa, and nodded with a
drowsy expression. She was nearing complete exhaustion. She
answered, “No major issues for now, but he didn’t provide any
information when he spoke to me. I’ll have to figure out a different
way.”This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
