The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning by Max Charming Chapter 1162
Kevin was not one to linger in bed. Seeing Blake wanting to sleep more, he prepared to get up. However, she pulled him back into bed. “It’s only six o’clock. I still have over an hour before work. Just grab some extra shut-eye.”
“You…” Kevin had never encountered someone so troublesome. Blake forced him to lie down and used his arm as a pillow. Kevin’s tone turned chilly, ” We’re not married, so watch what you’re doing, Blake.”
With her eyes closed, Blake replied calmly, “Darling, we’re living in a new age. Why are your ideas so old- fashioned? Have you ever even been in a relationship before?”
Kevin gave up when he found he could not retrieve his hand. “You think I have time for those things?”
Blake rolled over to face him. “So, what’s the deal with Ms. Parker? Why would you even give her your suit if you’re not good with relationships? Did you see her shivering with cold and decide to play the gentleman?”
Blake made a gun gesture, pressing it against Kevin’s forehead. “Come on, spill the beans. What’s the deal with you and Ms. Parker? She visited you last night, and I told her we’re together. She didn’t seem happy and stormed off. 11
Blake scrutinized his expression. It remained unchanged and seemingly unfazed. Noticing his reluctance to talk, she swiftly altered her approach. ” Let me tell you what to do if you’re not good with relationships. The first thing is to be honest. Come on, spill it.”
Kevin’s gaze shifted away from Blake’s starry eyes, “Audrey is the mayor’s daughter. Earlier, Mr. Parker organized a dinner party intending to introduce Audrey to Mr. Jardin. We couldn’t turn down the invitation, so I had to attend it in place of Mr. Jardin. Afterward, I encountered Audrey having an asthma attack in the elevator, and I helped her out.”
Hearing no movement from the person beside him, Kevin glanced over to find Blake deep in slumber again. Kevin slowly withdrew his hand, lifted the covers, got out of bed, and massaged his numb arms.
‘With her attitude, she’s bound to get in trouble sooner or later, even if she’s out of Cecilia’s control.’
Blake was sound asleep until her phone started buzzing, waking her up for the second time. In a half-asleep daze, she put on her slippers and heard the conversation emanating from the study. When her footsteps approached, the conversation inside immediately halted.
Blake groggily asked, “Do you have any clothes that would suit me? I have to go to work.”
Kevin said, “The walk-in closet is on the left side of the bathroom. There are some new clothes inside. Get them yourself. I’m going out in a while, so make sure you close the door.”
Blake grabbed Kevin, who was walking past her. “Is there anything more important than me? Aren’t you going to drive me to work? A good boyfriend would do that.”
Kevin casually fastened his expensive wristwatch, “You have fifteen minutes to get ready. I’ll drop you off at the office on my way.”
“No. Ten minutes will be enough for me.” Blake hurriedly ran to the room. Just then, Kevin’s phone in his pocket vibrated.
[Things are in motion. Be on your guard.]
Kevin expressionlessly pocketed the phone. Blake walked to the fridge and grabbed a bottle of yogurt for breakfast. She wore Kevin’s deep gray shirt inside and the floor-length pants that were too long for her. She rolled it up at the ankles and put on Kevin’s work coat as an outer layer. Blake, at 5 feet 5 inches tall, wore the coat that reached just above her ankles perfectly.
“I’m ready. Let’s go.”
Kevin scanned her from head to toe without saying much. Seeing him leave, Blake quickly closed the door and ran after him. “Wait for me!”
