Chapter 44
Blake jook lubel to a club.
The people at the entrance of the club kept casting strange glances at Blake as he rode the electric bike.
They entered a private room and saw a man, who quickly got up when he saw Blake..
“Mr. Yates,” he greeted.
Vince. I am not the CEO anymore. Just call me by my name?
“Alright. Blake, you’re finally back on your feet. I’m so happy for you. I’ve been waiting for this day for a long time,” Vince Dawson said happily
Then he added when looking at kabel, “And this is
“My fiancée, Isabel Blake introduced Vince to Isabel. “This is my friend. Vince”
Vince was surprised. “I heard that your father picked a fiancee for you, and she’s actually so pretty” With that, he turned to Isabel. “Hello. Miss Galver. Ive heard a lot about you from Blake. He wouldn’t have been standing here today without you.”
“No worries” Isabel said flatly.
Vince felt that Isabel was a bit aloof, which reminded him of Blake in the past.
Then Vince and Blake sat down and talked business with Isabel listening aside. They didn’t avoid her.
Vince wondered.
“Blake, I’ve always wondered why you invested 30 million dollars in Skycross Games last time. It has no future and low returns,”
Isabel was stunned, thinking. ‘Make invested 30 million dollars? I also had Tyler invest 60 million dollars. No wonder Martin was suddenly like a different person buttering Jack up. He had great investment from both Blake and I.
“Not important. I can afford those 30 million dollars anyway. Let’s expand the market into the country” Blake said.
They chatted for a while longer, and Isabel got the gist
Blake was going into business, which didn’t belong to the Yates family. It was his own business. The fact that he could thrive abroad without the family knowing showed how capable he was
“lubel, let’s go,” said Blake.
Jubel nodded and came out with him.
“Ask me anything you want to know.” He knew she was curious.
“I never knew you were so rich,” she said, looking at him.
He smiled. “My money is all yours. Even my life is yours, let alone money”
She asked, “Since you are so capable, why did you choose to live in this shabby village and be picked on by a caregiver?”
“Back then, I was completely disabled. Even if I had a lot of money, what could I do? Some doctors treated me, but they all said that I could move again and that all the muscles and bones in my body were broken.

“Besides, something happened, and I had a mental breakdown. I had no reason to live and arranged
for my funeral. I asked Vince to go abroad and never come back. He has been my subordinate and friend for years, and I didn’t want anyone to see me so dejected. I figured I’d just die alone. Bhut then I met you……” he said, looking at her.
It was tuubel who brought light into the abyss. She cured him and gave him the confidence to live. Of course, he was very grateful to her.
Then he continued. “Through it all, I’ve learned a lot. Some things are just illusory. I shouldn’t be persistent with them because they never belong
“And now, I only lurve one goal, which is to live for myself and for you. Only when I become strong can no one hurt me. “Besides, I have someone I want to protect now. You, your parents, Alex, Jark, Roy, and Simon, you’re all the people I want to protect

“Actually, you don’t have to do this. I saved you because..” babel wanted to explain.

Yet he interrupted her, “Tudon’t care what the reason was. The fact is that you saved me. From now on, my life is yours. This is what I promised”
she was utterly speechless, thinking. Forget it. I’ll talk to Mr. Harper when I get back, telling him I’ve cured Blake and fulfilled his task
“We the way, Isabel, didn’t you ask me why I’m crippled? I’ll tell you new Blake looked at her
Then he continued. “A few years ago, Hell into someone else’s trap. My brother Morris and I were kidnapped at the same time, and our mom

“Later, I was kicked out and left alone in the village. Then I was completely abandoned by my family. All of these seem nothing to her.
“Tve thought it through I don’t want them anymore. Ill no longer please her. I’ll protect the one I really love”
He looked at Isabel with unwavering determination as he said.
Only then did she know the reason why he had become completely disabled.
She thought, Seems we’ve got something in common. I used to try my best to please Rosy and Caius, but they never gave a damn about me.
They’re both so heartless.

After Blake finished speaking, he took her hand, his eyes full of affection. “Isabel, from now on, let me protect you. I love you.”
She was utterly speechless. All of a sudden, he started to confess!

Shaking her head, she refused, “No need. The electric bike works for me.”
He didn’t insist. “Alright. As long as you’re happy”
With that, he rode the electric bike over and let her get on.
