The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning (Madelyn) novel Chapter 1030

After a two-and-a-half-hour movie, Blake and Liam ended up in a packed elevator. Blake winced as someone accidentally stepped on her foot. Liam quickly guided her to a less crowded spot, asking, "You okay?"

"Yeah, I'm fine."

"Hang in there, just a little longer."

"Okay." Blake found solace behind Liam, their hands finding each other's. She glanced up at him, her heart fluttering.

When they finally reached the ground floor, Liam did not let go of her hand, his brow furrowed slightly. Blake had noticed him closing his eyes now and then during the movie.

"Is everything alright? You don't look too good," Blake expressed her concern.

Liam looked a bit worn out, and shook his head, "I'm okay. Let me take you home."

Blake recalled a text from her mom and asked, "Is it your headache again?"

Liam's pained expression reminded Blake of a weary golden retriever, endearing yet pitiful. He gave a weak smile and said, "Just need to take my medicine back at home."

"I can't let you suffer like this. Let's get you some medicine. I know how bad headaches can get. Let's go, I'll help you out." Blake insisted.

"I..."

Before Liam could protest, Blake took his hand and guided him out of the building. At that moment, Liam's gaze remained fixed on Blake unbeknownst to her.

"Don't forget to drink some water," Blake reminded Liam, unscrewing the bottle cap and holding it to his lips, noticing he kept his hands in his pockets.

"You're not running a fever, are you? Let me check," Blake said, reaching up to Liam's forehead.

Liam instinctively bent down, allowing Blake to touch his forehead. Comparing it to her own, she concluded, "No fever, probably just stress from overworking. This medicine should help. You'll feel better soon."

"Thanks," Liam murmured.

"I should get you home. Wouldn't want you passing out on me. Where's your place?" Blake inquired, genuinely concerned.
