The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning

Chapter 1041

Even if they saw each other at the company, Blake could still keep her calm.

At that moment, a colleague from the Editorial Department brought Blake a work badge and asked, ” Blake, what’s your relationship with Xander Gale? He insisted on working with you for the book signing. I’m jealous! could you get a complete set of books for me?”

Blake happily put on the work badge and flicked her hair smugly before saying, “Sure, it’s no big deal.”

Then came another request, “One more thing. I’m embarrassed to ask, but could you do me this favor?”

Blake agreed, “Do tell.”

The editorial colleague said, “I found Xander’s contact and texted him, but he hasn’t responded.”

Blake replied, “I’ll mention it to him, but I can’t promise anything.”

“It’s okay, it’ll work if you tell him. I think he treats you differently. Also, the car’s here. You should hurry.

Xander is waiting for you,” said the editorial colleague.

The book signing event was at half past nine, so there was still half an hour. Many people at the office had high hopes for Blake and wanted her to get Liam’s autographed books for them. It made her feel like

she had hooked up with a rich guy.

At the Ventropolis Library, Blake and Liam entered through the employee entrance to avoid the crowd. When they had reached the second floor, Blake saw the crowd outside. She exclaimed, “Liam, you’re

almost as popular as any top-tier celebrity. If they saw your real face, the fans would’ve gone crazy.”

At the same time, the editor who was with Liam reminded him, “You just need to sign autographs and no

pictures.”

Blake looked behind her and saw that Liam was not listening to her. Instead, he was still chatting with the

editor, Olivia Blue. Olivia and Liam were very close partners.

Olivia looked sharp in her suit. She turned to Blake and requested, “Ms. Dion, the event will start in two

minutes. During this period, could you help monitor the fans? I have some arrangements to make. We

also might need to meet with some guests.”

Blake nodded and replied, “No worries, you can count on me.”

Throughout the signing, guards were standing on both sides, and they were there to keep Liam safe. No

one knew how crazily the fans would react.

Blake gave Liam a water bottle during the signing and asked, “Are you nervous!”

Liam replied, “With you around, I’m not nervous at all.”

Blake was confused and thought, ‘Why did he say it so charmingly? He sounded like a character from his

novels.’

The event went on smoothly and many fans showed up. Blake managed to prevent fans from taking pictures with Liam. It was already half past four in the evening when the event ended.

Blake was exhausted from the event and dozed off. After Liam finished signing the last book, he kept the pen and massaged his wrists. He then shielded her from the light with a book.

Olivia had just hung up her call and walked in. Just as she was about to talk, Liam hushed her before

In the corridor, Liam glanced at Blake and smiled. He turned around and asked, “Is something the matter?

Π

Olivia answered, “Good news! A big shot wants to meet you, which could greatly benefit your career.”

However, Liam refused, “No, I don’t want to go.”

Olivia insisted, “You can’t. You have to go. She’s the wife of Jardin Corporation’s CEO. Don’t worry, it’s just

a meal and nothing else.”

Liam argued, “Olivia, you should know. I don’t like such events.”

Olivia continued, “But she’s already waiting for you. If you don’t go, there’ll be severe consequences. Jardin Corporation is not someone our company can mess with. I know that the new website that

Jardin Corporation established did a lot to recruit you. It has messed up your life, but could you do this for me? Just think of it as repaying me for being your editor.”

Liam apologized, “I’m sorry.”

Blake overheard their conversation, and intervened, “You should go. Madelyn’s a friend who’s helped my family in tough times. Plus, I know her well, and she’s stunning. It’s a win for you to go. Just be careful around her husband. Mr. Jardin is quite possessive. Even a look at Madelyn might anger him. But don’t

worry. I’ll protect you!”

Olivia was taken aback. She asked, “You know Mr. Jardin’s wife? Why are you still an assistant with such

connections?”

Blake, struck by the realization, exclaimed, “Right! Why am I still an assistant?”

Liam smiled and said, “If you want me to go, I’ll go.”

Olivia immediately smiled and said. “Sure, I’ll arrange for your ride immediately. The meeting will be at

The Deli.”
