The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning by Max Charming Chapter 1154
Blake felt disappointed. Kevin said, “After I leave, the position is yours. With Cecilia looking after you, you can do whatever you want in the company. No one will dare tell you what to do.”
Blake met his gaze and asked, “What do you mean? What do you mean by saying the position is mine? Kevin, what are you planning? Are you using me again?”
Kevin stared at her for a long time. Suddenly, he saw an incoming call displayed on the car’s screen. He said, ” Don’t overthink it. I’ll be going abroad for a while. The company’s affairs are none of my business anymore. Get out of the car now.”
Blake saw that the incoming call was from Audrey. Her heart sank. She was irritated and wanted to curse.
She wanted to know what plans he still had that she was not aware of. She thought, ‘But who am I to question him?’
Then, she got out of the car. After the car drove away, Liam walked over to her and asked, “Are you okay?”
Blake shook her head, “I’m fine.”
In the following week, Blake did not see Kevin in the company. Susan took over her position and became Cecilia’s assistant.
Blake would occasionally pass by Kevin’s previous office. When she did, she would subconsciously look inside at the empty seat. She realized he was really not coming back to the company.
She gradually started to get busy dealing with film and television companies regarding the adaptation of authors’ works.
In the conference room, a few editors were having a meeting.
One editor said, “Lately, we can’t reach the author of ‘Murders in the Night’ for some reason. The crew is ready to start shooting. For this kind of murder mystery genre show, we need to finalize some details. Originally, Hana was in charge of this book, but she’s on maternity leave.”
Hana’s full name was Hana Moore.
Liam asked, “When did we lose contact with the author?”
The editor replied, “It’s been almost half a week.”
Blake responded, “Do we have his address? Has Ms. Moore visited his home?”
“Ms. Moore visited him, but it seemed like there was no one at his home at that time.”
Blake looked at the address information shared by an editor in the meeting group chat. After checking the details, her pupils suddenly contracted.
Blake thought, ‘It’s actually this location!’
She closed her laptop, stood up, and said, “I’ll handle this author. I’ll go there later to check it out. I’ll ask the neighbors. Who knows, I might find him.”
After the meeting, Blake packed up. Liam came over to help her put on a scarf, “I’ll go find you in an hour. I have something to attend to right now.”
Blake sensed an intimacy between them and subconsciously intended to avoid it. Liam had recently been very nice to her, almost like a boyfriend should be.
However, now they were mostly friends and colleagues at work.
Blake understood his feelings. But she did not know how to react to his kindness. Enjoying it made her feel an inexplicable sense of guilt.
