Marriage With A Evil Heart

I couldn’t help but furrow my brow, this person in front of me, is he the same Blake I knew back then or not? From the moment I met him until now, everything about him was a mystery to me.

It wasn’t until then that I sensed that the way Albert had been treating me, the way he’d been subtly hinting at me, the way he’d been so dedicated and unflagging in his devotion to my affairs, turned out to be all from Blake’s point of view.

That means that Blake has been up until now about me.

No wonder he and Scarlette are so secretive, always avoiding the obvious, always wanting to say something.

I’m a bit puzzled as to how on earth Blake knew about me and went to all the trouble of trying to come to my aid, saying he’d work with me but not taking a penny and letting me buy it back at the original price, so what was he after when he said he had something else in mind?

I realized that Scarlette is the one I want to see the most right now.

Blake, seeing that I’ve been silent the whole time, smiles inscrutably and asks me, “You haven’t thought about it yet?”

I stretched my brow and met his gaze; right now, I really couldn’t find a second person with that kind of money to help me run this thing.

Without this strong capital, all my plans are just a pipe dream, how can I talk about revenge?

If I don’t get Medikit Inc back, how can I explain to my fellow meta-humans who have suffered with me, including Jacob, who dragged his crippled body and said he would help me? How can I let him down?

And, Blake really is the most trustworthy person I have to reach out to, which I really need at this point.

I cleared my throat and spoke, “Then let Warren draft the agreement! But a partnership is a partnership, and you don’t have to sell it back at the original price, you can consider a markup.

Getting Medikit Inc back at the moment is not something I have to do alone, it’s something I have to give to everyone! I can’t let Robert do whatever he wants.” I said with certainty.

“Thanks for the vote of confidence!” Blake’s eyes lit up at my words, “You’ve been sober!”

Indeed, it’s a huge vote of confidence for both Blake and me to have reached this agreement.

“I know Medikit Inc is your heart and soul, I’m just holding it for you temporarily until it’s really safe to hand it back over to you!” Blake softly reassured me.

I stared at Blake for a long moment, and what came through in his gaze was honesty, sincerity, and a hint of eagerness.

“Then please, Blake!”

The corners of his mouth twitched for a moment, but then he grinned openly, laughing heartily.

“Oh! There’s one more thing I have to warn you about!” Blake moved closer into the couch, his gaze fixed.

“You say!”

“You need to make a trip to Southend as soon as possible, the babysitter that Robert arranged to stay at your parents’ place, I looked into it and that person is Amelia’s aunt!”

“What?” I nearly jumped out of my skin at once in shock.

Blake nodded solemnly, “The last time Scarlette went back to Southend, she asked me to look into this nanny, only to find out that she was related to Amelia. Such an arrangement does have an ulterior motive, so make a trip back to Southend and keep an eye out.”

I looked at Blake a little confused, “Since when do you know anything about me? Did Scarlette tell you?”Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Blake thought for a moment, looking gentle, “A long time ago!”

“How long?” I pressed, “How long?”

I kind of regretted it after I asked, it seemed a little too much focus on him to pursue it like that.

Sure enough, his smile deepened and his eyes narrowed.

“Knowing that Steven is Robert’s brother!” Blake’s words made me flinch again.

“Steven?” I muttered and repeated, and as if something had occurred to me, I opened my mouth to follow up, “You’re official?”

He smiled but didn’t answer, so it seems my guess was right.
