Blake returned to the office fifteen minutes before she had to resume working.
She lowered her head and texted Liam, [Although our blind date didn’t work out, we can still be friends.
I’m sure you’ll find someone even better.
[Also, thank you for the lunch today. The food you made was delicious. But you don’t need to trouble
yourself again in the future.]
Liam replied very quickly, [Is he good to you?]
Blake pondered a few seconds. When she recalled what happened during lunchtime, she was jealous.
Not good at all,’ she thought before replying, [Not exactly good. But that’s who he is. He’s distant, rigid,
and a workaholic.
[Just now, he even scolded me for sitting in his chair. He was so fierce when I asked him to have lunch
with me.]
Liam asked, [Why do you like him then?]
Blake responded, [It’s complicated. You overlook flaws when you like someone.]
Blake was walking and suddenly bumped into someone. She hit her forehead on something hard, and
it
was painful. Her phone clattered to the ground.
She then heard Susan’s displeased voice, “Blake, it’s working hours now. You’ve slept from morning
until lunchtime. And now you’re leisurely playing on your phone. Is there no one who can control you
anymore?”
Blake calmly picked up her phone from the floor and dusted it off. She said, “From the way you’re
talking,
it seems like you want to control me.”
Blake glanced at Kevin before looking at Susan. She grinned at Susan and replied coolly, “You can
boss
me around when you become deputy CEO.”
After that, she regained her composure and returned to her desk. People in the office who were
watching
the scene just now quickly looked away. They then lowered their heads and pretended to be engrossed
in
their work.
Susan said, “Mr. Harrison, look at her.”
Kevin coldly responded, “Mind your own business.”
Janice silently gave Blake a thumbs-up.
Blake had a work chat software open on her computer. She added an employee from the Strategic
Planning Department who worked on the same floor as Cecilia to ask him about her. He told her that
Cecilia did not come to the company today.
The employee from the Strategic Planning Department asked, [Aren’t you the assistant? Don’t you
know
her schedule?]
Blake sent him an emoji that described a headache expression before replying, [More of a lackey than
an
assistant.]
He responded, [It must be tough for you. She used to be an assistant herself. Now that she’s become
the deputy CEO, she’s known for being difficult to deal with. Besides Mr. Jardin, everyone in the
company
avoids her.]
Blake replied, [Hehe, thanks. If she comes back to the office, please let me know. I’ll then go up.]
The employee from the Strategic Planning Department responded, [No problem.]
Blake thought, ‘It seems like Cecilia won’t be coming to the company today. It’s strange. Usually, other
assistants know their boss’s schedule. But I’m so free. I need someone else to tell me if my superior is
coming into the office or not.’
Blake was full of energy after sleeping all morning. She rested her chin on her hand and aimlessly
clicked in her chat with Kevin. Then she turned her head and saw Kevin talking to Susan for over half
an hour.
When Susan came out, she stood in front of Blake’s desk with files taken from Kevin. She looked down
at Blake provocatively and said, “Enjoy it while it lasts.”
Blake responded without looking at Susan, “Just because you’ve been Kevin’s assistant for a few days,
you’re already throwing your weight around? Take a good look at yourself; it’s so laughable.”
Blake was rarely defeated in verbal confrontations. She would not cause trouble as long as she was
not being provoked. However, some people could not resist running their mouths.
Susan was left speechless by Blake and left in anger.
Janice leaned over and expressed her concern, “Aren’t you afraid that Mr. Harrison will target you?
He’s very protective. In the past, when someone spoke ill of you behind your back, he targeted them for
a very long time. That was why those people backed off.”
