Chapter 1212
Blake replied to Liam. In the end, she decided that she did not want to
work at Jardin Corporation and definitely did not want to become
Cecilia’s assistant.
She had made that decision, firstly, due to their relationship, and
secondly, because she believed she could not handle the position of
the CEO’s assistant.
She wanted to take things one step at a time.
Blake had rested at home for a few days, and StartReading Literary
did not urge her to return to work.
Hannah and Yael had stayed with Blake during the few days too. After
resolving Blake’s emotional struggles, they left and returned to their
research institute.
Around seven-thirty in the morning, after driving Hannah and Yael to
the airport, Blake went to the company to work.
When she arrived, some editors had already started working.

An editor said, “Good morning, Ms. Dion!”
Blake nodded. “Good morning.”
When she entered the office, she noticed that Liam had not arrived at
the company yet. This surprised her because he usually was the first
to arrive.
Blake, holding her phone, intended to text Liam. However, she decided

against it in the end.
She thought, ‘Maybe he’s still resting. It’s not every day he has the luxury of being late.’
Blake had copies of the Editorial Department’s internal docu
she could not expect Liam to always handle everything alone.
Her seat in the office was just beside Liam’s.
That morning, several contracts for the film and television adaptation rights had been signed, and the
business department had already started carrying out the necessary procedures to continue.
When Cecilia came out of the conference room after the morning meeting, it was already ten o’clock in
the morning. She did not look
happy.
She had originally planned to reorganize all Jardin Corporation’s internal projects. However, due to
Zach’s absence, Cecilia, as the acting CEO, did not have the authority to halt significant ongoing
projects.
Cecilia slammed the documents on the table. “These bastards are all siding with Zach. None of them
take me seriously.”
Susan, now the CEO’s assistant, stood beside Cecilia and consoled
her, “Ms. Samford, it’s not worth getting angry at them; they’re short-
sighted.”
Cecilia frowned as she looked at Susan. “Where’s Blake? Did she
come to the company today?”
Susan shook her head. “I’m sorry, I’m not sure about that. We rarely deal with StartReading’s affairs.
Are you looking for her? I can call her

now.”
As Susan was talking, Cecilia opened her work email and looked at
the contract drafted for a major film and television project of
StartReading Literary. Cecilia then glanced at her watch to chec
time and said, “Book a table at The Deli today. I’m taking someone
there for lunch later.”
Susan nodded. “Okay, I’ll do it right away.”
Cecilia had one and a half hours of break time left. She had already canceled meetings with her clients.
After Susan left, Cecilia sat at her desk and started handling her work
emails.
Before this, Cecilia hated dealing with matters related to StartReading Literary. To her, StartReading
Literary was an insignificant company; she did not care about it, unlike Zach who valued StartReading
Literary because of Madelyn.
Then, the Editorial Department of StartReading Literary received documents of approval from Jardin
Corporation. The entire department instantly erupted with excitement.
