The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning by Max Charming Chapter 1087
Blake said, “You’re so nice.”
Several tables away, a few people were looking in Blake’s direction, making uncomfortable remarks about her. She did not eat much before she used the excuse of the soup being ready and left.
Blake thought, ‘Maybe I shouldn’t eat in the cafeteria anymore. No matter how delicious the food is, I can’t withstand the stares from these people.
Cecilia was still recuperating in the hospital. She was surprised to see Blake, who had just left in the morning, so soon, “I don’t remember asking you to come.”
Blake felt guilty when Cecilia stared at her. She lowered her head and touched her nose, “Ms. Samford, I’m your assistant. I was worried when I thought of how you have no one to take care of you. I bought you your favorite soup. Give it a try.”
Blake opened the thermal container and served some into a bowl. She then sat by the bedside and offered it to Cecilia with both hands, “M-Ms. Samford, why are you looking at me like that? Is there something wrong with me?”
Cecilia, pensive, withdrew her gaze. She then took the bowl of soup, “I remember you’re an only child, right? You got no brothers or sisters?”
Blake honestly answered, “I have a female cousin named Mya Harper. My parents were busy and rarely had time to take care of me. So, I spent most of my childhood at my aunt’s house.”
Cecilia lowered her head and took a sip of the soup, “Oh?”
She thought Blake resembled her little sister. When her sister lied, she would lower her head to avoid eye contact, just like Blake. Cecilia found the way Blake looked at her was so much like her sister.
Back then, Blake, who could not handle anything well, immediately caught Cecilia’s eyes because of this reason. She thought, ‘Blake’s eyes… I find them really familiar.’
Then, she asked, “Are you free tonight?
Blake answered, “Yes, I am!”
Cecilia finished her soup in one gulp and said, “Accompany me to a gathering tonight. Dress up nicely, and don’t embarrass me.” She then took out a card from her bag and handed it to Blake.
Blake was surprised, “Ms. Samford, I have money. You don’t need to give me yours. Don’t worry, I won’t embarrass you.”
Cecilia responded, “Is it not enough?”
“No, that’s not it.”
“Take it then. Also, pick a car you like. This card has no spending limit. Buy whatever you want. If you need a property, let me know which area you want.”
“Huh?” Blake could not believe what she heard. She continued, “Ms. Samford, are you serious? I just bought you a bowl of soup. Why are you buying me a car and a property? Are you treating me so well now because you want to sell me later?”
Cecilia stared at Blake blankly. Suddenly, Cecilia could hear a little girl’s crying voice, “Please don’t sell me! I’m thin. No one will want me. I want to stay by your side forever.”
Blake added, “Ms. Samford, please don’t do that! Look at how skinny I am. I don’t even worth as much as a pig!”
