Blake said, “Thank you, I’m heading out now. If anything comes up, I’ll
message you.”
Liam responded, “Be careful.”
Blake, with a black leather bag in hand, was wearing a dark coat that
reached her knees. As she took the elevator down and walked
through the lobby, she coincidentally ran into Susan, who was chatting happily with the people from the secretarial department.
Blake thought, ‘What an unlucky day.”
She thought about pretending not to see Susan and quietly l
However, holding a cup of coffee, Susan did not want to miss t
chance to show off to Blake.
Susan stood in front of Blake to block her way, “I didn’t expect to you still in the company. If I didn’t know better, I’d think you got fire Tsk, tsk… Looks like you’re doing quite well working as an assistant
to an editor-in-chief!”
Blake noticed the expensive clothes and ladies’ watch Susan was flaunting, all from Jardin Corporation’s latest collection, with prices ranging from two to three hundred thousand dollars.
Considering the secretaries’ monthly salary was around six to eight thousand dollars, Blake could not help but wonder how Susan afforded such luxury.
Blake lowered her head and chuckled. She hit the nail on the head, ‘ Yeah! After becoming the Deputy CEO’s assistant, someone can now afford jewelry worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. Shosanna
Swift, do you have a sugar daddy now?”
Susan responded, “Shut up!” Blake covered her mouth and burst into laughter, “Oh, I forgot. Shosanna was your old name. Now you go by Susan. Look at me; after moving downstairs, I even forgot about that.
“You’re a big-hearted person; you won’t hold it against me, right? I’ll get going now, then.”
People nearby realized Susan’s original name was Shosanna Swift and secretly laughed as they found her name very old-fashioned.
Susan did not like her original name because it was very old- fashioned. So, she had been telling people to call her “Susan.”
Susan thought, ‘I can’t believe Blake still has the nerve to act all arrogant after being demoted. Well, just wait until I climb up th ladder again, Blake. Sooner or later, I’ll have you fired!’
Blake drove along a familiar route and arrived at a residential a was a bachelor apartment complex. She took on this task not on find the author but also for another reason. C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
After arriving at the given address, Blake knocked on the door.
As expected, no one answered. Then, a neighbor living opposite walked out, “Stop knocking. He hasn’t been back for a month.”
Blake said, “I see. Thank you.”
The neighbor asked, “What’s your relationship with him?”
Blake answered, “I’m his editor. There’s some content I need to discuss with him.”

“Got it. Come back later. Actually, he’s been coming back late these
days.”
“All right, thank you.”
Blake checked the time and saw it was only around five thirty in the
evening. She turned and walked into the elevator. After a moment of
hesitation, she decided to press the button for the sixteenth floor. As
the elevator ascended slowly, her palm holding the handbag started
to sweat.
Unexpectedly, as she contemplated, the elevator doors opened, and
she saw Kevin. He was waiting for the elevator.
They had not met for a long time. Compared to Blake’s actions, Kevin looked very calm. His eyes remained sharp and cold.
“Do you need something from me?” Kevin stepped into the elevator and pressed the button to go down to the lobby. Blake stood behind him, watching his back, and said, “Who said I’m looking for you?”
Kevin responded, “The recent StartReading’s project involves the production of a television series titled ‘Murders in the Night.’ The author and I live in the same apartment building-he’s on the eighth floor, and I’m on the sixteenth. Are you telling me that you accidentally pressed the wrong floor button?”
Blake was terrified when she saw Kevin’s gaze, “Have you been
coming back to the company? How do you know about everything that I’m doing?”
The elevator quickly reached the lobby, and Kevin still did not
respond. Blake, almost unconsciously, continued to follow him, “Say
