Chapter 1058
Madelyn smiled as she spoke, “Blake, don’t become a pawn in their power games. You’re a kind soul. Perhaps it’s
best for you to leave Jardin Corporation. If Kevin makes it difficult, I’ll speak with Zach. And between Kevin and
Liam, Liam is your better choice.” 1
Blake, still grappling with the complexities of office politics, listened intently. Madelyn’s insight into the power
dynamics at play, particularly the unfolding rivalry between Zach and Cecilia, highlighted the precarious position

Madelyn left after tending to Blake’s injuries and advising her to take care. As Madelyn entered a waiting Bentley,
Blake sat there and tried to digest Madelyn’s advice.
In the car, Zach placed a blanket over Madelyn’s legs, his concern evident. He commented, “You care for everyone,

Madelyn, unfazed, replied, “You have plenty who’d dote on you at a moment’s notice.”
Zach drew her close and said, “Isn’t being with you around the clock enough, Mrs. Jardin?”
Madelyn spoke bluntly, “I don’t want Blake to be caught in the crossfire of your battle with Cecilia.”

affects more than just you two. You have responsibilities. People’s livelihoods depend on your
choices. It’s risky.”
“Enough!” Zach snapped, his eyes angry. “I don’t need your input. Just be my happy bride, and I’ll handle
Cecilia.”
Cecilia was always a formidable adversary in both love and business. She was not someone to be

not because of an outsider but because Madelyn pushed him toward Cecilia.

bought for her and stormed into Kevin’s office.
