Chapter 1299
Tears streamed down Blake's face as she wiped them away with a blank expression, murmuring to herself, "I don't believe you're gone, just like that. If you haven't come back to look for me in three years, I'll go search for you myself."No matter where you are or what it takes, even if it means going to the ends of the earth. I'll never believe you're dead, Kevin."Unbeknownst to Blake, two men observed her from a secluded corner of Ventropolis through surveillance footage. One chuckled. "This woman does have feelings for Kevin. She's been here almost a dozen times in a month. And she's about to get married, doesn't her husband mind?"The other, holding a cup of coffee, added, "Who knows? Kevin doesn't know how to cherish a good woman."Blake lay on the bed, eventually drifting into sleep amidst her tears. When she awoke in the afternoon, her phone buzzed incessantly with messages and missed calls.She regained her composure and read through them.[Mom and Dad are back. Where are
Chapter 1300
Blake kept using Kevin as an excuse to talk herself into marrying Liam.When she had been in Northern Myanmar, Blake had noticed Cecilia's high status there and how the people there treated her with utmost respect. Blake knew that she was most likely involved in the explosion. Her fists clenched tightly, and her whole body tensed up, a deep, dull emotional pain coursing through her. Blake's eyes welled with tears as she gazed out the car window, her emotions rising.After they arrived at the Harper residence, Blake exited the car with Cecilia following closely into the foyer. Grace asked, "Blake, where have you been? Liam..."Simon clutched his chest and stood up from the couch. Upon seeing Cecilia also appear at the door, the expressions on everyone's faces changed. Simon walked over and said, "Blake, come here."Blake obediently walked over. Grace stepped forward, gripped her hand, and shielded her behind, saying to Cecilia, "What are you doing here? You're not welcome here. Get

Blake said, "Mya just went to get treatment. Don't worry, Aunt. She'll be fine."With things at this point, there was nothing else they could do. The Harper family was in a difficult situation now.After arriving at the Xander residence, Blake found that someone had already picked up her parents in advance. Liam walked up to Blake. His gentle gaze was filled with warmth. "Thanks for coming."Blake gave him a forced smile as she responded, "No big deal. Let's go inside." She walked forward and pulled her hand away from Liam's attempt to hold it tightly."Mom, when did you come back? Why wasn't I informed?" Blake asked.Hannah said, "Your dad and I informed Liam through a call and wanted to surprise you. Your dad really likes Liam. Back when you were blind dating, we also thought highly of him. We didn't expect that you two would end up together. Your dad and I were so happy that we couldn't sleep well for several days. We're so happy that you've found happiness with Liam."Blake s
Chapter 1302
Everyone was eager and planned for Blake and Liam's wedding to be held next week. Blake did not plan for a big wedding or public announcement but invited some close family from both sides to get together for a meal.After sorting out the wedding details and finishing dinner, Blake's parents' eyes could not hide their fondness for Liam on their way home.'At first, the blind date was set up by my parents, so the people they picked were naturally good matches. Except for Aunt, no one else knows about my relationship with Kevin.'Grace noticed something off with Blake. She took Blake's hand and said, "Blake, I think Liam's great for you. Just like with your uncle and me, we had an arranged marriage. At first, I wasn't really into him. However, your uncle was consistently kind to me as we spent time together."As time passed, I found it's just how life is. For a woman, having a man who thinks about you in every way and loves you is already perfect. Look at Liam. He's handsome, well-off

Blake nodded. "Okay."Olivia said, "That's it for now. I have a social engagement with the CEOs from other websites tonight. You're coming with me."Blake responded, "Sure."Her seat in the office had been moved outside the chief editor's office. She sat in front of the desk, looking at the text sent by Liam on her phone.He texted: [Mom and Dad have already picked out some photography companies for our wedding photos. Time is a little tight. Take a look and see if you like any of them.]Blake merely glanced at it before pocketing her phone. She then remembered what Hannah had told her regarding her past with Liam. She thought that the little boy in her dreams might be him. Eventually, she opened the conversation with Liam again and replied.She responded: [Let's go with the third company. I still have work to do. We'll talk after I'm off work.]Liam replied: [Okay. I'll pick you up after work.]His civil service examination had long been fixed. As long as he was qualified in t

"L–Liam..." Ixia said.She desperately reached out to grab Liam's hand. But before she could touch him, he walked away.Julian was furious when he saw that. He raised his hand and slapped Ixia hard across her face. "Look at what you've done.""You hit me! How dare you hit me?! What right do you have to hit me? I was always polite to you. You're only my dad because my mom likes you. Otherwise, you're nothing. Even my real dad never hit me like this!"This is my home, not yours. Get out!"Julian's gaze turned fierce instantly. "Try saying it one more time.""I just said it, so what?! You're only interested in my family's money; that's why you married my mom. You wouldn't even be in this family without her. You abandoned your wife and son just to get into my family.""Shut up!" Ixia's words hurt Julian deeply. He looked menacing as he lifted his hand and slapped her again, putting almost all his strength into it.Ixia fell to the ground from the slap. A clear handprint could be se

Ixia said, "Mom, please don't let Blake marry into our family, okay?"Lylia responded, "Don't worry. Even if she marries into our family, I won't make things easy for her."She thought, 'I won't allow our interests and benefits to be shared by outsiders. I refuse to believe that Liam won't be interested in other women, no matter how upright he appears.'Some of the most luxurious penthouses in Ventropolis were valued at nearly eighty million dollars each.Even if someone had the money to buy it, they might not qualify to live there.Julian lay his head on the lap of a charming woman who wore a purple lace nightgown emitting a captivating fragrance. Her long, wavy hair cascaded over her ample breasts. She said, "You haven't visited me in a long time."I made gnocchi today. Do you want some?"Julian responded, "Has anyone unfamiliar been coming to find you recently?"The woman replied, "I've been staying home just like you asked me to. What's the matter? Are you afraid I'll see o
Chapter 1306
The deafening music pierced through Blake's eardrums as she downed drink after drink. Eventually, the last drink left her somewhat intoxicated. Everything felt surreal when she looked at the colorful lights.Janice hurriedly took the drink from Blake's hand. "Stop drinking. You've drank a lot. If you keep drinking, your body won't be able to handle it. It's already late; I should take you home now."Blake pushed Janice's hands away and drunkenly babbled, "I–I don't want to go back. I have to marry Liam when I go back. I don't want to get married. I want to wait for Kevin to come back. He slept with me and promised to take responsibility!"Janice's eyes widened as if she had just heard some earth-shattering news. "W–What did you say?! You slept with Mr. Harrison? I knew you were more than just friends with him. I even asked back then why he always looked toward our direction."Confused, she asked, "If you like Mr. Harrison, why are you marrying Mr. Xander? Blake, what happened after
