Chapter 1177
Blake thought, ‘Liam is the editor-in-chief. Those who didn’t know
might think I’m not here to work but to enjoy my time in the company.
Liam tapped Blake’s forehead with his fingers. “This is approved by me and is part of your job. No
matter what you do, whether you’re
busy with work or leisurely at the office, it doesn’t matter to me. I just
want to be able to see you every second of every day!”
Anxious, Blake pinched the edge of the bowl filled with cherries. “I really don’t understand why you
seem to have been unreasonably nice
to me since our blind date. I don’t think we’ve met before that.
“Have we met before our blind date?”
Liam’s gaze was intense as he looked at Blake. ‘She really doesn’t
remember it.’
He grabbed a few tissues from his desk, wiped his hands, and said, Do I really need a reason to like

I
can wait for you.”
The word “wait” implied an uncertain and distant future.
Blake was a very stubborn person. She would not reconsider her choice, even when faced with a
challenge. When she was in university, her parents had advised her to study medicine, but she did not.
Instead, she chose the dull field of financial management, which
was neither too difficult nor too easy, just right.
However, Blake’s family had no family business for her to take over,

so everyone told Blake that she would be wasting her time studying as she would not graduate. She
did not listen to them, and to prove everyone wrong, she not only graduated but also received
recognition as an outstanding student. She knew how competitive it was at
Ventropolis University.
Slowly, her thoughts drifted to Kevin.
Even though everyone believed Kevin and Blake could never hav
future together, she did not want to give up on him. Once she set he
mind to be with him, she was determined to stay in the relationship
with him. She had never intended to end their relationship so easily.
She thought, ‘No matter how long he’s away, whether it’s three years
or five, I won’t give up.
‘I don’t shift my romantic interests so easily. I won’t string along one,
person while having feelings for another.’
Blake said, “Liam, I believe Kevin will come back. No matter what he’s
doing, I believe he’ll return. I can wait for him. I’m a stubborn person, so I’ve just decided that I won’t
disturb you anymore. I’m planning to go back to Jardin Corporation. I’ll take it step by step, do what I

to do well and deliver outstanding performance. When I have the capability and become the CEO’s
assistant, I’ll wait for him to come back and give this position back to him.”
A hint of sadness crossed Liam’s eyes. He clenched his fists and a suppressed emotion welled up in
his throat as he said, “All right, no matter what you decide to do, I’ll help you.”
Blake rejected him, saying, “No. This time, I want to do it on my own. Susan’s right. Besides my ability
to rely on others, I’m not capable of

taking on the position of an assistant.

“Even when Kevin was still in the company, he always covered for me.
This time, I want to do it all by myself.”
Blake thought, ‘If I continue like this without doing my job well, no
matter where I go, people will inevitably say I got the position through
connections.”
