PopularNovelChapter 1160 “Stop holding onto such unrealistic fantasies. Liam’s a better fit for you. Go back and focus on your work. Don’t embarrass me,” said Kevin. Blake was someone who had worked under him, after all.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBlake bit her lip, hesitating to speak. “I'll ask you one last time. Do you really have nothing to say to me? | understand Liam's feelings for me, but... I'm still into you!” Outside the door, Sean looked puzzled and said, “Well, Kevin, is this a rare occasion? A young lady finally confessed to you?” After mustering up all the courage, Blake finally spilled the words. However, she heard the author from StartReading Literary, who could not be found, calling Kevin's name instead of using a respectful address.
“Get out.” Sean grinned and said, “Ms. Harper, I'll head out for now. Once you're done chatting with Kevin, shoot me a message. I'll come right over.” Blake was always a straight shooter. If she wanted something, she went for it, and if she was not interested, she did not even bother. Honestly, Blake did not even know why she had ended up falling for Kevin, who had such a bad temper. Aside from being good-looking, he had no other redeeming qualities.
“Did you hear what | just said?” Kevin asked, “What benefits do | have in causing trouble for myself? It seems that what | just said was all in vain.” Chapter 1160 2/4 Blake’s gaze followed Kevin as he headed to the wine cabinet and poured a red wine. She approached him from behind.
“Shouldn't you confront your feelings when facing the person you like? | know I'm impulsive and don't think ahead, but | can see it and feel it too. You want me to stay with Liam to keep me out of trouble. You want to protect me, and | know you care about me, but | don’t get why you're pushing me away.” Kevin said, “That's wishful thinking. If a tool loses its value, why keep it around?” Kevin tilted his head back, sipping on red wine. Blake took a step forward. “You lied to me. You're still lying to me right now.” Hearing the frustrated voice behind him, Kevin chuckled when he lowered his head. It was the first time Blake had seen him smile. ” What's so funny?” Kevin turned around. “I'm laughing at your unyielding stubbornness. Alright, it's getting late. You should head home soon. | don't have time to drive you home.” Blake was utterly baffled, ‘What on earth is he talking about?’ Kevin asked, “Why aren't you leaving? How long do you plan to stay here?” Blake said, “But you haven't answered my question.” Seemingly not getting his answer, Blake had an appearance that she would not leave. The window in the study was not closed. A gust of wind blew, swaying the heavy curtains.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“You clearly have feelings for me. Why not face them and give us a Chapter 1160 3/4 real shot? No ulterior motives or any of that, just trying for the sake of our future. Life is short. Why not give it a try? What if we're meant for each other?” Kevin had never encountered someone like her before. Whether in the company or with other women, he had no shortage of pursuers. However, everyone retreated while facing his cold and unfeeling demeanor. Unlike her, who was unapologetically persistent.
Marriage and kids had never even been on Kevin's radar. A life like his seemed destined for a different path. “Well, let's see how you can impress me,” said Kevin.
Blake asked, “What do you mean? Are you agreeing to give us a try without any ulterior motives?” Kevin cleared his throat with a half-clenched fist near his mouth, coughing a few times as if he had a cold. “I've got some things | need to take care of.” “Ah, | got it. Go ahead with your business. I'll head downstairs and talk to Sean about the set. Take care and don’t catch a cold.” Blake hurried to the window and closed it. “By the way, thank you for helping me with that issue at the police station.” Kevin sat in his seat and flipped open a page of documents. “You being bailed out wasn’t on my orders. Liam's father is the Secretary- General, so it's most likely his doing. Didn't he tell you about it? Or did you start having regrets when you found out | didn’t bail you out?” Kevin's hand pinched the corner of the document and paused, not looking up.
Blake shook her head. “No, he rarely talks about his family with me.” Chapter 1160 4/4 When leaving, something crossed Blake's mind. She stopped and stood at the doorway, asking cautiously, “What about you? | don't think I've ever seen your family, and there’s not even a photo on your frequently used desk.” Kevin said, “I'm an orphan. | have no family. My name and identity are fake.” Blake was instantly stunned. She even forgot what she was about to do, forgot that she was supposed to leave. She walked to Kevin, grabbed a chair, sat beside him, and closed the files before him.
“Take a break. How about you tell me about your past and what you used to do? It'll help me understand you better. If it's hard for you to start, | can go first. Since | was little...”
