Chapter 1025

Just as Blake was about to send another message, she realized It could not go through. Frustrated, she thought, Kevin, you jerk! What makes you think you’re so special? Fine, don’t reply, then, Who cares?

lake refused to be disrespected. She blocked Kevin and permanently deleted his contact, thinking.

‘Don’t you dare ask to be added back.”

She then informed Cecilia, “Ms. Stamford, I couldn’t reach Mr. Harrison. He’s blocked me!”

Cecilia snapped, “What use are you then?”

Blake kept her distance and quickly apologized, “I’m sorry, Ms. Stamford. It won’t happen again.

At that moment, Cecilia’s gaze met Madelyn’s from the third–floor window: Her thoughts darkened with jealousy. “Madelyn, you think you’re better than me?‘

Despite her anger, Cecilia maintained her composure and called Madelyn.

Madelyn answered, waiting silently. Cecilia could not hold back, “Don’t get too comfortable, Madelyn.

Without Zach, you’re nothing.”

Madelyn, recalling how she once felt helpless, knew she was stronger now, even without Zach.

She replied to Cecilia with a calm demeanor, “Ms. Stamford, Zach is only interested in the financial benefits you bring. He needs me right now. Perhaps you should keep your distance.”

Madelyn turned away after hanging up, unaware of Cecilia’s burning hatred.

Cecilia, still arrogant, failed to realize her status depended entirely on Zach. Without him, she could never have reached her current state. She aspired to be Zach’s equal, but she did not realize how formidable the real Zach was.

When Zach arrived at his office, he received a call from Margaret, “Mr. Jardin, there was a woman at the door acting quite aggressively and looking for Ms. Jent earlier. Luckily we didn’t let her in.”

Zach asked, “How is Madelyn?”

Margaret replied softly, ‘Ms. Jent seems unbothered. She’s painting now.”

Thank to fight back, Margaret,” said Zach. He smirked as he hung up the phone, pleased that Madelyn knew how Back at the office, Cecilia confronted Zach, throwing documents on his table and ranted, “Why didn’t you answer my calls?”

ile turned to Kevin and continued, “And why didn’t you send me his schedule? Can’t you understand mote instructions?

Blake, waiting outside, shivered. She was glad to be leaving this dysfunctional company and cheered Inwardly of seeing Kevin being yelled at.

Zach gestured for Kevin to leave the office.

“Serve him right!” Blake muttered under her breath, relishing in Kevin’s misfortune.

Suddenly, the office door opened, surprising Blake. Kevin glared at her, and she rolled her eyes in return.

“Hmph. I’m leaving soon, I’m not scared of you,” Blake muttered to herself.

Then, Blake received an unexpected call from her mother. She asked while walking to the balcony, “Mom, are you back?”

Her mother suggested a blind date, which frustrated Blake. She protested, “You’ve been gone so long, and now you!

you’re trying to set me up on dates? I’m fine living with Aunt Grace.”

Blake resigned and agreed to one last blind date. She wished her parents would return from the research institute for her birthday, as she had felt neglected since childhood.

After Blake ended the call, she felt wronged. She thought, They always send money, but I need more than that. I need them. I’ve been independent since I was left with Aunt Grace. As if I’m not their daughter at all. I’m tired of this family and also this job.”

As Blake turned around, she was startled to see someone behind her. Annoyed, she stormed off, passing by Kevin.
