densely packed and impossible to count. There were also marks on his back, close to his heart, seemingly from gunshot wounds.
‘Oh my goodness, what has he been through?’
Kevin swiftly grabbed his shirt and put it on. “Who said you could barge in? Get out!”
Blake even forgot to speak. She fearfully retreated outside, clutching her chest and gasping for breath. Leaning against the door, she recalled the injuries on Kevin’s body.
‘Wasn’t he Mr. Jardin’s assistant? How does he have these injuries? Every single one of those looked like deadly wounds. We’re in the modern age. How could something like this still happen? What on earth has he been through?’
Kevin stared at himself in the bathroom mirror, his gaze intense and enigmatic. The past events seemed vivid despite ten years passing swiftly. They replayed like scenes on a videotape repeatedly,
hauntingly clear. Kevin wore a clean set of pajamas when he emerged from the bathroom.
Seeing Blake still around, he spoke coldly, “How long do you plan on staying?”
Blake came out of the kitchen with two sets of bowls and utensils. Her expression was calm as if nothing had happened. “Although you bought the ingredients, I made the meal. I waited for you to return without taking a single bite. At least let me finish my meal before you ask me to leave. Besides, I didn’t come specifically to find you today. I’m here for the company’s business Sean happens to live in the same apartment as you. I need to wait for him to come back and discuss some details about the TV series.”

“Go grab the phone from the nightstand in the room,” said Kevin.
Blake did as he said without asking. Her gaze shifted down while placing the phone within his reach, and she noticed a scar on his wrist beneath the loose cuff. She was stunned, ‘How come I never noticed this horrible scar on Kevin’s wrist before?’

Blake was dumbfounded. “H-How do you have the phone number of a StartReading Literary author? Kevin, how much do you really know? You’re unbelievable.”
Kevin said, “Finish your business and leave. Don’t come here anymore. It’s not safe here for someone like you.”
“What do you mean ‘someone like me’? Besides, this is a big
apartment. I can come and go as I please. You can’t drive me away even if I’m at your doorstep!”
Kevin gave Blake a deep look. He was usually a man of few words, but he warned her with good intentions, “Staying here longer will put you in danger. Just stay with Liam and be safe.”
After saying that, Kevin put down the utensils, stood up, and left without eating much. It was a waste of all the dishes on the table. Half an hour later, Sean really showed up. Surprisingly, he turned out to be a skinny, ordinary-looking guy, around twenty-six. He seemed sketchy and untrustworthy.
Blake asked Sean to wait at the door for a while. After much
hesitation, she finally went to Kevin’s study and began saying, ”
Regardless of everything, I really appreciate your help with this.
“I know there are things on your mind that you’d rather not share and a past that’s hard to talk about. However, I’d like to say the past is behind you, and you don’t have to trap yourself in it
My feelings for you in the past were genuine, and I never considered playing around with you. From my childhood until now, I’ve never had a serious relationship, so I was genuinely happy when you said we should be together.
Although we always argued, you never learned to compromise with
