Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 1545

"At the end of the day, Mr. Blake still cares about you. Is there really no chance for you two to work things out?"

Hannah's blunt question caught Bella completely off guard.

She had assumed Hannah came on her own accord. She hadn't expected this to be a company mandate.

A company mandate? Without Sebastian's direct approval, who would dare authorize a visit to her?

No one had the guts to make that call independently.

Suddenly, Bella couldn't decipher Sebastian's angle.

Was he testing her?

Was it genuine concern? No, impossible. He couldn't possibly harbor any real affection for her.

The idea of him caring was utterly laughable.

"The company really sent you?"

Hannah offered a sweet smile. "Of course. If they hadn't, I wouldn't have been able to leave. The company is incredibly busy right now. They aren't approving any time off whatsoever. So, Bella, knowing that Mr. Blake still cares about you, aren't you thrilled?"

Bella didn't feel a shred of joy. Every nerve in her body went on high alert.

After everything she had orchestrated to obliterate his reputation, there was no way he would just sit back and let the fire burn.

He was definitely plotting his counterattack. He was brilliant, and sitting idly by wasn't in his DNA.

However, Bella knew she wouldn't get a single clue out of Hannah. Hannah was way too low on the totem pole to know what was going on inside Sebastian's head.

"I'm glad he still has the heart for it. How are things at the company?"

"Fantastic, actually," Hannah replied smoothly. "The Blake Group has a massive foundation. We were terrified our department would collapse after you left. But Mr. Blake brought in The Expert from overseas with a massive salary. The guy is incredibly capable. He seamlessly took over all your responsibilities without missing a beat. We all breathed a huge sigh of relief."
