“I promise, I will keep your secret.”

"What secret?"

"Well...your relationship with him, I won't tell anyone."

Blake and Marissa knew each other since they were young, but one accident cost Blake his chances at being with Marissa. So against his better judgement, in order to be near her, he agreed to be her best friend.

Ten years later, using the pressure his family imposed upon him to get married. Blake concocted a plan to enlist Melissa's help. Her role was to play as his wife. 

Can Blake finally convince Marissa that whatever happened when they were young was just a misunderstanding?

Will You Keep My Secret?

"It is what it is," Ruby replied to Blake's question.

"No, grandma, please explain," Blake's voice was urgent.

"Come back home, Marissa is worried about you. I will explain everything," Ruby said. Everyone was worried when they learned that Blake had rushed out of the office after Margaret and Rowan had visited him.

Blake ended the call and stared once again at William's grave. "I will come visit more often, Dad," he whispered before standing up and making his way back to the car.

During the drive, he couldn't stop thinking about what his grandmother had said. He hoped that it would provide some answers as he couldn't bear the weight of his confusion and heartbreak any longer.

Marissa came running when she saw Blake's face entering the house. "Have you eaten?"

Blake smiled looking at her concerned eyes. Shaking his head, he said, "later."

"Let's eat first." Marissa held his hand and dragged him to the dining table.
