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,

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

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?’
“Come over right away.” Kevin hung up the phone with just a sentence. Then, he said to
Blake, “Sean will be here soon.”
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

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

“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
