The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning by Max Charming Chapter 1067
Kevin explained, “Audrey is the daughter of the mayor of Ventropolis, and some of our company’s projects require the mayor’s approval.”
‘Hmph, fine!’ Blake thought. She smiled at Kevin, then casually tossed the half-empty water bottle she had just finished drinking onto him.
“Sorry! It’s past work hours now. Go visit her yourself if you want to. I’m not tagging along as a third wheel.”
Next to them was SereneCare Hospital. It was convenient for Blake to have dinner around here as she could easily walk home in about fifteen to twenty minutes. She pulled twenty bucks from her pocket and handed it to Kevin.
“This is for the ride.”
Then, Blake swiftly opened the car door, got out, and closed the door. She did not look back as she left.
‘I must be out of my mind. Instead of going home, I remained hungry without eating and followed him to this place.’
Blake entered a restaurant at the end of the street. After placing her bag, she immediately ordered a full table’s worth of dishes.
Kevin watched from nearby as she placed the order.
After a few minutes, the car had already disappeared when Blake looked over again. She glared angrily and forcefully broke the fork in her hand into two pieces. ‘What am I still expecting at this point!?’
Just as the waiter was serving Blake’s dishes, back on the set, Liam finished shooting and scanned his surroundings, as if looking for someone.
Olivia brought a bottle of water over to him and said, “You’ve worked hard. We’re done for today, and I made a reservation at that restaurant you like.”
Liam asked, “Where is she?”
Olivia realized who he was asking about, “She’s already left. Do you need her for something?”
Liam noticed the medicine Blake had forgotten to take and said to Olivia, ” You can go home first.”
Liam called Blake and asked, “Are you there alone?”
Blake said, “Yes, it’s just me. Wanna come over?”
“Okay.” Liam smiled when he received the address Blake sent. He said to Olivia, “I’m off.”
“But…” Before Olivia finished, Liam had already walked away and could not notice the unusual emotion in her eyes.
Blake worried the dishes would get cold quickly, so she asked the waiter to reheat them. When Liam arrived, it was almost nine o’clock.
He apologized, “Sorry I’m late.”
Blake said, “It’s okay, let’s eat. I don’t know what you like, so I ordered what I myself enjoy eating. Feel free to order a few more dishes if you want.”
Liam preferred mild flavors and rarely ate spicy food. During his time in the hospital, he had been consuming bland liquid food, and he had gotten used to it. After a while, Blake remembered he could not handle spicy food, while all the dishes she had ordered so far were spicy. She promptly asked the waiter for dishes more suited to his taste and ordered an alcoholic fruit juice for herself.
After the meal, Blake finally satisfied her hunger and patted her round belly. Liam carried a women’s bag and followed beside her. “If you like it here, we can come again next time.”
“Sure! Their sweet potato casserole is great.”
The neon lights bathed the street as Liam and Blake strolled among pedestrians, easily spotted in the crowd. Simultaneously, Kevin returned from dinner and got back into his car. However, there was a woman in the passenger seat.
While waiting for the traffic light to turn green, Kevin looked at the people crossing the street and spotted Blake’s bright smile. She was walking backward, talking excitedly to the man beside her. Kevin noticed that the man walking with her kept a close eye on their surroundings while simultaneously listening to her attentively, never getting tired of her talking.
