NovelEnglishChapter 1221 A group of people suddenly rushed in from outside and surrounded Cecilia and Blake.
Cecilia calmly pulled Blake behind her to protect her. When Grant tried to get back up, Cecilia stepped on his chest, “Mr. Patterson, it's best to behave yourself in the future. If there’s a next time, | can’t guarantee you can keep your hands intact.” She then removed her foot from Grant's chest before smiling, “It's getting late. I'll take my sister back to get some rest. Enjoy your time, everyone.” The people who were present were those from four major families in charge of Northern Myanmar. When they saw Grant being treated that way, they just coldly watched him and did nothing.

When Cecilia and Blake walked to the gate of the guarded compound, Cecilia stopped and said, “I still have some matters to attend to. You go back to the room and rest. If you need anything, tell the bodyguards.” She paused before continuing, “I'm very happy you stood up for me.” Blake felt a surge of anger when she saw Cecilia being unbothered.
She said, “What did you do to gain power? Look at those people; they're clearly not good people. How can you associate yourself with them? “Did you gain this so-called power and wealth by trading your body? Don’t you feel disgusted?” Cecilia chuckled, “Am | not allowed to do that? Since ancient times, there hasn't been a man who doesn’t seek the company of women.
Men desire women’s youth and beauty. Why can't I? “I don't just be with any man. Now, don’t ask about these things again, okay? I'll be unhappy.” Cecilia then instructed the bodyguards behind her, “Escort her back safely.” Blake said, “You said you'd take me to see Kevin.” Cecilia replied, “I'll arrange for you to meet him in a couple of days.” Blake then watched Cecilia get into a black car, and there seemed to be a man inside. It was pitch-black outside the guarded compound, ( so she could not see the man’s face clearly.
After the car drove away, Blake returned to her room. She looked at the view outside the guarded compound and could not believe Kevin was actually in such a place.
She could not sleep. She did not like quiet environments, so she turned on the television. However, there was no signal, and the only thing visible on the screen was static.

Meanwhile, in a secluded place with dim lighting that did not reach every corner of the room, Kevin was bandaging the wound on his arm.
He heard the vibration of his phone, picked it up, and saw a message from Blake. His eyes darkened, and his expression was unpleasant.
In just ten minutes, Blake received a reply from Kevin: [Where are you now?] She was on the verge of tearing up when she saw his reply.
She thought, ‘Kevin, you jerk. If you truly don’t care about me, you wouldn't have replied to my message so quickly because of a photo.” Blake intentionally did not reply to Kevin's message, as if she wanted to punish him.
However, he quickly sent another message.
