The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning by Max Charming Chapter 1240
Despite verbally agreeing to Liam’s suggestion, Blake stared out of the car with a heavy heart. Liam seemed to sense her inner worries and hesitated before speaking, “Don’t you need to tell Kevin about this? After all, this is an important matter, so you should make it clear to him.”
Blake replied, “It’s okay. I’ll explain this to him clearly.”
After returning to the office, Liam and Blake coincidentally ran into Cecilia as they entered the elevator, with Susan following closely behind. In the non- crowded elevator, there were only a few people. Cecilia dressed in a professional outfit. Perhaps due to her recent good mood, she had a glowing complexion.
“Great. Seems like you’ve taken my advice to heart.”
Blake ignored her, but Cecilia still offered, “If you encounter any date troubles, like when you can’t get a reservation at a restaurant, you can count on me for help.”
Liam was about to say something while Blake cut him off. The look in her eyes seemed to express, ‘It’s not worth talking to someone like that.’
The elevator quickly reached the tenth floor, and Blake and Liam exited. Outside the CEO’s office, Cecilia stopped at the door and waved her hand. “Go ahead and get in for the morning briefing. I have an important video conference call, so if there’s nothing else, don’t bother me.”
Susan nodded and said, “Yes, Ms. Samford.”
As Susan turned to leave, Cecilia pushed the door open and walked in. She found a man sitting at her desk with his back facing her. “You’re back so early?”
She walked over with a smile, and the door behind her closed slowly. Cecilia approached with a touch of flirtation and embraced him from behind the chair. “Is everything sorted out over there? Anything I can help with?”
Agustin held a document in his hand. As he set it down, he turned the chair, took Cecilia’s hand, and wrapped his arm around her waist, gently pulling her closer. Cecilia went along with it and sat on Agustin’s lap. He asked, ” You still haven’t taken action after all this time. Is it because you can’t bear to? Or are you struggling to make a move?”
Suddenly, Cecilia burst into laughter, and the sound echoed in the office. She seemed like a temptress who knew exactly how to charm men. Her hands hooked around Agustin’s neck, giving him a seductive look. “Are you jealous? “she teased with a playful smile.
Cecilia continued, “Don’t worry. Zach is still in a coma. Even if he wakes up one day, he’ll just be a vegetable and won’t interfere with our plans. What’s more, except for the underground intel -gathering organization you mentioned, everything else is under our control, isn’t it?
“Oh… I almost forgot! There’s also the inheritance Zach sneakily left for Madelyn. Do you really think I care? Even if she holds that inheritance document, I can guarantee she won’t see a dime. The company is now completely under my control! Zach belongs to me, and you are also mine!” Cecilia said, treating the men as if they were a disposable plaything.
However, Agustin paid no mind to Cecilia’s words. His deep gaze focused on her, “I knew you’d be the type of woman to prioritize power above all else. There are only two types of people in your eyes: those you can use and those who can benefit you. You are completely heartless.”
Agustin playfully lifted her chin with his fingers and kissed her fiery red lips. Cecilia laughed, and her eyes filled with various ambitions. “Heart? What’s the point of having a heart? If I had a heart, I wouldn’t be in this position, and I certainly wouldn’t have had the chance to meet you, who brings me all these surprises.”
“How did the checkup go?”
Cecilia reached out to caress his face. The man in front of her could practically have been her dad’s age, but he kept himself well and seemed only in his mid-thirties. He had a refined, bookish vibe, but who would have guessed he was just as ruthless as Zach, maybe even more. “Are you so eager for me to have your child? Don’t worry. Someday, I’ll gradually seek justice for our child from Madelyn.”
Cecilia grabbed his hand and placed it on her abdomen. Her eyes showed both fierceness and sorrow, saying, “This was our first child, and I’m going to make her pay for it. Her child will be the one to accompany ours in the grave.
