The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning by Max Charming Chapter 1306
The deafening music pierced through Blake’s eardrums as she downed drink after drink. Eventually, the last drink left her somewhat intoxicated. Everything felt surreal when she looked at the colorful lights.
Janice hurriedly took the drink from Blake’s hand. “Stop drinking. You’ve drank a lot. If you keep drinking, your body won’t be able to handle it. It’s already late; I should take you home now.”
Blake pushed Janice’s hands away and drunkenly babbled, “I-I don’t want to go back. I have to marry Liam when I go back. I don’t want to get married. I want to wait for Kevin to come back. He slept with me and promised to take responsibility!”
Janice’s eyes widened as if she had just heard some earth-shattering news. “W -What did you say?! You slept with Mr. Harrison? I knew you were more than just friends with him. I even asked back then why he always looked toward our direction.”
Confused, she asked, “If you like Mr. Harrison, why are you marrying Mr. Xander? Blake, what happened after you went downstairs?!”
Blake, heavily intoxicated, staggered around. She was holding onto the glass as she headed for the restroom. “Why am I marrying Liam? I won’t tell you why. It’s because my sister forced me.”
Janice was puzzled. “Your sister? Who’s your sister?”
“Who else could it be? Cecilia Samford.”
“What?!” Janice stood stunned in place for a long time, unable to process what Blake had just said. When she saw Blake bumping into someone, she hurried forward to support her. “Blake, walk slower.”
After walking into the dark corridor leading to the restroom, Blake suddenly felt unsteady and leaned against the wall. At that moment, a hand from the darkness suddenly pulled her to a corridor without lights.
Janice asked, “Blake, where are you?”
Blake responded, “I…”
Janice shouted anxiously. She thought, ‘ She’d just turned the corner. How could she have disappeared so quickly?’
Before Blake could say anything further, her mouth was covered by someone’s hand. Then, she suddenly leaned against the strange man’s chest. She could not see his face clearly; it was as if she had fallen unconscious.
With a deep and intense gaze, the man in black clothes looked down at the defenseless Blake in his arms.
On a narrow balcony with bar graffiti and an abandoned couch, Blake leaned on the man’s shoulder. She placed her hand in his palm. “Hey, you smell so good! This scent of yours is like that of my deceased ex-husband.”
Blake reached out to caress his face with both hands.
The man said, “Put your hands down. Someone will take you away soon.”
“I don’t want to leave, and I won’t put my hands down. I want you to stay here with me,” Blake responded.
She squinted, her vision blurry, her body exuding a strong smell of alcohol that lingered. She stared at the man carefully for half a minute before smiling and saying, “Kevin, you jerk. When are you coming back? If you don’t come back soon, I’ll have to marry someone else.”
At that moment, Janice’s anxious voice came from downstairs. “Mr. Xander, Blake disappeared here. I lost her for a moment, and then she went missing.”
Liam responded, “Let’s split up and look for her. Call me if you have any news about her.”
“Okay.” Janice was very worried, so she called Liam. She worked in the secretarial department and had many senior employees’ phone numbers on her phone. That was how she found Liam’s phone number.
Fortunately, he answered her call. Otherwise, she would not be able to explain losing Blake to him.
“Let go!” the man said.
