In the Lambert Group.
Blake had heard of Lambert Group. Those who came in and went out of here could not be underestimated, no matter how ordinary they looked on the surface.
When she heard that Gavin was working here, she could not hide her reverence at all.
Later, she learned that Gavin was the special assistant of Brian. It was said that he had the same power as the vice president in Lambert Group.
Gavin was the one who had the most say in the Lambert Group other than Brian.
She, Blake, should date such an outstanding person.
After getting off the car, Blake walked straight into the Lambert Group but was stopped by the receptionist. She had to explain the purpose of her visit. "I'm here to find Gavin."
"Are you looking for Special Assistant Gavin?" The receptionist showed a professional smile. "Sorry, you're not allowed to go up."
Blake was very surprised.
However, she had a good upbringing, so she was not angry but asked patiently instead, "Can I know why?"
The receptionist said as if she was reciting lines, "Special Assistant Gavin is hosting an important meeting. He specially ordered that no one is allowed to disturb him, unless..."
Blake looked at the receptionist with a pair of clear, inoffensive and innocent eyes and asked, "Unless what?"
"Unless it's someone he's very familiar with, such as Mr. Brian." The receptionist kept a decent smile on her face and made a routine inquiry. "Miss, what's your relationship with Special Assistant Gavin?"
It seemed to be a routine inquiry, but in fact, the receptionist was making things difficult for Blake.
Blake also knew that, but she was not angry at all. She calmly said, "I'm his girlfriend."
The receptionist slightly responded with an "oh" and said, "From time to time, someone claims to be Special Assistant Gavin's girlfriend and wants to go up to him. Miss, we haven't heard that Special Assistant Gavin has a new girlfriend recently. So, you can contact Special Assistant Gavin yourself, and I will let you go up as soon as I receive the call, or you just wait for him here."
Considering that Gavin was at work, Blake didn't dare to disturb him, so she chose the latter.
Without being impolite, the receptionist asked someone to serve Blake a glass of lemon water.
Blake took it with both hands and politely thanked the female administrative staff who served her the water.
The female staff walked to the receptionist and said in a low voice, "This girl looks good. She talks and acts pleasingly. Maybe she really is Special Assistant Gavin's girlfriend."
"I've been working for the Lambert Group for so many years, and I've seen and experienced so much!" The receptionist said slowly, "This girl may be Special Assistant Gavin's girlfriend, but Special Assistant Gavin has had so many girlfriends in the past. In fact, it depends on her significance in Special Assistant Gavin's heart!"
For Gavin, the title of "girlfriend" was like a game. It did not matter which girl this title belonged to, as long as he had an appetite for the girl's appearance. Anyway, he was not serious.
Gavin would put in a lot of effort and time to take care of the people he really cared about. But Lin was not one of those people, and she didn't dare to contact Gavin when she came here.
As soon as the receptionist finished speaking, with a "ding", the president's special elevator opened and Gavin walked out.
Gavin strode as if he was in a hurry. He looked straight ahead and went straight to the gate of the company.
Blake had never seen Gavin like this before, but she still greeted him with a smile.
Gavin didn't notice Blake at all. He walked past her without hesitation.
Blake was stunned and stood on the same spot in a daze. She could still feel the breeze brought by Gavin when he walked past her.
She looked at Gavin's back and hesitantly called him in a low voice, "Gavin."
Gavin looked back and frowned slightly. "Blake, why are you here?"
"I asked the driver to drive me here." Blake walked up to Gavin with a smile and took his hand. "I want to get off work with you."
"Sorry." Gavin pushed her hand away. "Something happened to Wendy. I have to rush to deal with it."
Before Blake could say anything, Gavin had called the receptionist and ordered, "Ask the driver to send Miss Lin back."
The receptionist hurriedly answered, "Okay!"
"Wendy..."
Blake wanted to ask what had happened to Wendy, but Gavin couldn't hear her at all. In the blink of an eye, he walked out of the company and got into his car.
The Land Rover took advantage of its excellent performance and disappeared from Blake's sight in an instant.
Blake tried hard to control her expression so that she wouldn't show any disappointment.
It didn't matter if Gavin heard her just now. He looked as if he wouldn't turn back even if the sky was falling down.
Wendy took up a larger proportion in Gavin's heart, didn't she?
Blake could understand. Wendy was his sister, so it was natural for Gavin to care about his sister. What's more, something had happened to Wendy. As Gavin's girlfriend, she couldn't stop him from looking for Wendy.
Otherwise, according to Gavin's usual style, she would soon become his ex-girlfriend.
The receptionist touched the female staff's arm. "See? In Special Assistant Gavin's heart, this girl is not as important as Miss Moore. I didn't let her go up, which was completely the right choice."
The female staff was confused. "If you let her go up, will Special Assistant Gavin be angry?"
"It's not like that. This girl does carry weight in Special Assistant Gavin's heart." The receptionist had evidence. "However, if I let her go up, I'll fail in my duty. The leader will have a bad impression of me. I'm not willing to do that!"
After that, the receptionist walked to Blake and said in a business-like manner, "Miss Lin, please wait a moment. I'll arrange for the company's driver to send you home right away."
"No, thank you." Blake maintained a polite smile. "I'll just take a taxi myself."
For safety's sake, the receptionist accompanied Blake to take a taxi.
It was the financial center here. Except for the high-rise buildings that reached into the clouds, cars were the most common thing.
Blake looked around the endless road, but she couldn't find Gavin's car.
She could not be informed of what had happened to Wendy, but where had Gavin gone?
Just now, was Gavin in such a hurry that he didn't even have time to tell her where he was going?
Dui Fang was sending Wendy back to her apartment. Naturally, Gavin's destination was also Wendy's apartment.
Wendy didn't feel scared until she got in Dui Fang's car.
In such a big city, someone dared to lay a finger on her in broad daylight at the entrance of the subway, which was bustling with people.
If Dui Fang had not saved her, she would have definitely been taken away.
She did not dare to imagine what would happen next.
Dui Fang noticed that Wendy was huddling herself up. He guessed that she was afraid, so he talked to her in an attempt to distract her. "What are you thinking about?"
Wendy said, "I think that I would rather those people be business rivals of my cousin-in-law or cousin."
Dui Fang was very curious. "Is there any difference between human traffickers or Mr. Lambert's business rivals?"
"Of course." Wendy put her chin on her knees and said, "If they're the latter, they will only aim for me. Thus, other girls walking alone on the road like me will not be in danger. But if they are human traffickers, they will aim for other girls too..."
She met Dui Fang, so she was able to escape.
However, what about other girls who were left behind? Was there anyone like Dui Fang who could save them?
Dui Fang glanced at Wendy in the rearview mirror and said with a smile, "You surprise me."
He had been tailing Wendy for some time, so he could inform Gavin that she was in danger today and save her in time.
He had also long known Wendy's living habits. Wendy was a girl who was enthusiastic about work and loved life very much but she was careless and broad-minded.
Such a girl, however, was undemonstratively thoughtful and kind-hearted.
As he thought about it, the car had already arrived at Wendy's apartment. Dui Fang stopped the car and reminded her, "We're here."
Wendy pushed the door open and got off the car. Only then did she realize that her legs were a little weak. She almost couldn't stand still, let alone walk.
She held the car behind her to support herself. Then she saw Gavin striding toward her.
With only one glance, she could no longer look away from Gavin.
When she was besieged by vexatious family members of the patients, when she was bullied by Zhong Lue in the hotel, when she was stopped by those dudes at the back door of MiTime... it was Gavin who came to her rescue.
No matter how much she argued with Gavin in normal times, he was always a person who could give her a sense of security in her heart.
As long as he was with her, she was not afraid of anything.
She knew that Gavin would certainly protect her.
Seeing Gavin coming over, Wendy suddenly couldn't control her weakness and grievance. Her eyes turned red, and her tears streamed down her face.
Gavin was used to Wendy's mischievous look. When he saw her tears, he couldn't help but feel a sharp pain in his heart.
Perhaps because he was affected by Wendy's tears, his mind could not be able to control his movements, and he reached out to hold Wendy in his arms.
Wendy finally couldn't control herself anymore and cried out, "Gavin..."
"It's fine." Gavin hugged Wendy harder. "Don't be afraid. I'm here. You're fine."
Wendy forgot how long she hadn't been so close to Gavin. She couldn't tell what she was wronged about.
She only knew that she wanted to cry wildly in Gavin's arms.
Gavin only knew that she had a narrow escape from the kidnappers today, but he didn't know her real pain.
She liked him and wanted to be with him. She didn't want to see him be so considerate to Blake...
How could she tell Gavin about her grievances?
In the end, Wendy kept sobbing and couldn't complete a sentence.
Gavin took the handkerchief handed over by Dui Fang and wiped the tears on Wendy's face. "Don't cry. Go back first."
Wendy looked at Gavin with tears, which amplified the lingering uneasiness and fear in her eyes. She grabbed Gavin's sleeves hard and was obviously unwilling to go upstairs.
Gavin tried to restrain his impulse but he failed. He said in a low voice, "Don't be afraid. I'll keep you company."
