Giving in to Her Rebellious Streak Chapter 17
Yasmin entered the president's office in a state of confusion. The secretary said, "Please wait here for a moment, Ms. Starr. Mr. Burke will be with you in a short while."Yasmin said, "Okay."Ten minutes later, someone opened the office door. A tall figure walked in. Yasmin smelled a faint minty scent and turned around to see a tall, handsome man behind her. It was Ivan, the man who'd helped pick up her drafts earlier."It's you?" She was surprised.Ivan smiled. "What a small world."Yasmin immediately realized who he was. She asked politely, "Are you Mr. Burke?""Yep." Ivan walked over to the couch and sat down, looking like he wanted to have a proper talk with her. "Please have a seat, Ms. Starr."Yasmin returned to her senses. She sat down and handed him her drafts. Ivan took some time to go through them. Then, he praised, "You're very talented, Ms. Starr."He smiled. "I'm sure you're aware that our company is looking into setting up a line that focuses on affordable luxury

Yasmin asked, "Do you and Mr. Burke know each other?""Of course. We used to be classmates back in Merania." Giselle smiled at Ivan. "Long time no see, Ivan. How have you been doing?""Pretty well." Ivan's smile was faint. It was hard to discern his thoughts from his eyes, which were hidden behind his glasses. "You guys continue chatting. I need to answer a call."He walked to one side and answered his phone.Giselle said with a smile, "Your career's advancing pretty well. You can work with NAS Group now!"Yasmin smiled politely. "It's all thanks to Mr. Burke."She didn't actually want to spend any time alone with Giselle. The latter asked so many questions that it got on Yasmin's nerves."Thanks to him? I think he likes you, you know. I'll let you in on a secret—Ivan's single. If you like him, you'd better get him while he's still on the market. You have an advantage, after all. Plenty of women are interested in him."This baffled Yasmin. Why was Giselle suddenly playing match

Yasmin could feel her eyelids twitching. Giselle's words gave her a bitchy vibe. She looked elegant and classy on the surface, but her words were carefully picked to sow discord. She wasn't as simple as she seemed.Sure enough, Blake's expression darkened at Giselle's words. He looked at Yasmin coldly as if wanting to shoot her with his gaze. Yasmin didn't dare to meet his eyes."Why are you guys still standing around here? The show's about to start. Let's all take our seats." Ivan was back.Yasmin sighed in relief. She moved to stand behind Ivan, using him to block Blake's gaze."Blake, Yasmin came here with Mr. Burke." Giselle just had to mention it.Blake frowned. Why was Yasmin getting involved with NAS Group? With her abilities, there was no way she could meet NAS Group's standards. She didn't even have a proper résumé.Giselle seemed to be able to read his mind. She said in a small voice, "Yasmin's fresh out of college, so she's probably not qualified to work with NAS Group

As Blake and Yasmin chatted, a model walked past them on the catwalk. Suddenly, the bag she held flew in Yasmin's direction."Watch out!" Ivan cried as he pulled Yasmin out of the way. The bag missed her.Yasmin was taken aback as she stared at the model. The latter put on an apologetic look and walked past them. Despite that, Yasmin still recognized her. She was Roxy Ford, Blake's cousin and the apple of her father's eye.Before this, Yasmin had heard about Roxy running off to become a model for the sake of the man she liked. Was that man Ivan?It was much too coincidental. Yasmin's lips twitched as she asked Ivan, "Does Roxy like you?"Ivan was surprised. "How do you know her name?"Yasmin was lost for words. She'd actually guessed correctly! It was no wonder Roxy had flung her bag at her. She was jealous! Roxy had always been obnoxious because of her upbringing. She didn't have the best temper."I've seen her a few times," Yasmin said. At the same time, she couldn't help glan

Yasmin was the daughter of a wealthy man who'd fallen from grace. She had a gorgeous face but no way to protect herself. Someone like her was the ultimate prey for the old lechers of the upper echelons of society.Besides, Stuart had offended many people in the past. Countless men wanted to have their way with Yasmin as a way of getting revenge.Yasmin said coldly, "I don't need you to tell me what to do."The mere thought of him impregnating Giselle disgusted her. She didn't want to say another word to him, so she turned to leave. As soon as she turned a corner, someone splashed coffee all over her."How dare you try to seduce Ivan, you bitch! Who the fuck do you think you are?" It was Roxy. She had a bunch of models behind her. They all glared at Yasmin.Yasmin was about to say something when Roxy grabbed her by the hair. She screeched, "You're just a slutty bitch who tricked my cousin into marrying you, Yasmin. Now that Giselle's back and Blake doesn't want you anymore, are you

"Roxy …" Blake said menacingly.Roxy's heart raced with fear, but she refused to back down. Her eyes were red as she complained, "She hit me first, Blake.""So you're saying she was the first to attack a group of people?" Blake asked coldly.This took Yasmin aback. She didn't expect him to speak up for her. It was a surprise."N-No …" Roxy was pale. She lied, "It's because she stole my man!""And who would that be?""Ivan Burke." He wasn't around, anyway, so Roxy went wild with her lies. She'd had a crush on Ivan for the longest time and already thought of him as hers.Blake's gaze was mocking. He said bluntly, "Would he be interested in someone like you?""What's wrong with me?""You're obnoxious and arrogant. There's nothing good about you."Roxy was stunned into silence. She had nothing to say in retort.Yasmin smirked at this. At least Blake knew his cousin well enough—indeed, she was an idiot without any redeeming qualities. There was nothing about her that would make s

Yasmin was running low on cash right now. It was all she needed to settle the problem. Everyone was taken aback as they turned to stare at her. She smiled. "What? Don't tell me the daughter of an affluent family isn't even willing to compensate me for my medical bill."Roxy couldn't stand being provoked. She held her head high and said, "Who said anything about not wanting to pay you? Name your price.""50 thousand dollars." Yasmin was afraid she would go back on her word and quickly flashed her QR code.Roxy pulled out her phone and scanned it. "There, I've transferred it to you. Check your balance. Don't go around saying I haven't paid you.""It's in." Yasmin was in a much better mood when she saw the additional 50 thousand dollars in her account. Earning such a huge sum in exchange for two slaps was pretty worth it.The atmosphere turned odd. Blake watched as Yasmin took the money, his expression frosty as could be.She didn't linger, turning to leave after getting the money.

After scrutinizing Yasmin for a while, Blake said, "You got what you deserved."This set Yasmin alight. "I got attacked for nothing, and you think I deserved it?""You deserved it because you didn't even think about retaliating despite them ganging up on you."Yasmin was taken aback. "I did fight back. There were just too many of them. Besides, they're all socialites and daughters of affluent families. I'm a nobody. How could I go against them?""Just go all out. I'd like to see whether any of them would dare to come after you."This stunned Yasmin into silence. What did Blake mean by that? Would he protect her? She couldn't understand what he meant, so she looked at him.Blake's face was devoid of emotion. He tilted her head up and applied some ointment on her face. The cooling sensation of it soothed the sting from the slaps.Yasmin was finding him harder and harder to read. He kept saying that he despised her and the Starr family, but he actually treated her pretty well. In t

Pamela thought that Yasmin's voice sounded strange, but since Yasmin was an important client, she didn't dare offend her.Politely, she replied, "It's okay. Please take your time.""Alright, please leave for now. I'll look for you once I'm finished here," Yasmin said in a strained voice."Okay." Pamela left soon after.Once she was gone, Yasmin awkwardly tapped Blake's shoulder. "Alright, stop it. You almost got us caught just now."Blake was now satisfied. A man who had been sated was no longer as surly. He became shockingly gentle, wrapping his arms around her waist and saying, "Join me for dinner later.""Okay," Yasmin weakly agreed. "Please let me go now."Blake finally released his hold on her. Yasmin's legs felt like jelly, and she nearly stumbled as soon as he let go.He steadied her and looked down at the torn train of the wedding dress. The front, however, still looked fine. He smiled and said, "You still look beautiful in the wedding dress."Yasmin glanced at the mir

Blake didn't respond, choosing instead to stare at Yasmin. She had just removed the tiara, letting her long hair cascade over her left shoulder. This brought attention to her fair skin and made her appear as if she was an otherworldly beauty.No wonder Ivan had been mesmerized earlier. A woman in a wedding dress truly possessed a sacred kind of elegance.Blake's gaze traveled down to her chest. She looked exquisite, but something was missing—the ring. His face darkened as he asked, "Where's the ring?""I took it off when I was trying on the wedding dress. I put it in my bag," Yasmin replied. She turned around to retrieve it for him.Maybe it was the way the wedding dress hugged her slender figure, or the graceful way she bent down to pick up the ring, her hips subtly lifting. Either way, the movement exuded an undeniable allure.Blake suddenly felt an overwhelming urge rise from within him. He walked up behind her and placed his hands on her waist as if possessed.Yasmin froze

Ivan sneered in response. "Oh? Do you want to come over and have a drink at the wedding?""There's no need for a wedding toast, but I'll send you a nice little gift soon. You've had Lizzie abducted, and I haven't settled that score yet." Blake's tone was cold and menacing.Still, Ivan wasn't afraid. He took a couple of steps forward, smirking as he said, "Feel free to try—but you should think it through. You have more loved ones than I do. "Besides your mother and Lizzie, there's also your grandmother. I could blow up your mother's hospital today, kidnap Lizzie tomorrow, and have your grandmother killed the day after."Blake's cold laughter came through the phone. "Is that so? Well then, I guess I need to send you a big gift today."The two men continued their exchange from a distance. Yasmin, who was unable to hear the conversation clearly, was trembling with fear. She was terrified of what they might be discussing.It was at this moment when Wendy hurried in from outside. She

Yasmin stepped into the fitting room and changed into the wedding dress. When she emerged, her long hair was elegantly pinned up, and her red lips were vibrant. It made her look breathtakingly beautiful.Ivan saw her and was momentarily stunned. His gaze was unwavering as he stared wide-eyed. Then, he caught himself and smiled. "Yasmin, you look stunning."She gave a slight smile in response, adding to her allure.Ivan was almost entranced. He picked up a crystal-encrusted tiara from nearby and placed it on her head. She glanced upward, her eyes sparkling as she stood there in the white wedding dress. She looked absolutely mesmerizing, and Ivan couldn't take his eyes off her.Meanwhile, Blake watched from across the street with a growing sense of jealousy. The sight of them together made him smirk cynically. Unable to contain himself, he pulled out his phone and called Yasmin.He didn't want to see them looking so perfect together. It irritated him to no end.When Yasmin's ph

Yasmin's heart ached as she listened, her eyes reddening. "You're doing great, Trist. If Mom were with you right now, I'd definitely give you a big hug."Tristan mumbled, "Mom, stop acting like it's the end of the world. You sound so sentimental. I'm doing just fine here. I've got friends to play with and plenty of household staff members to look after me. "You just take care of yourself in Merania, and do whatever you need to do. Once you're in Rimmervale, we'll see each other again."Yasmin nodded. "Yes, we'll see each other very soon."Just then, the door swung open, and there Ivan stood in the doorway. Yasmin jumped in surprise and instinctively ended the video call."Why are you crying?" Ivan asked, noticing her red eyes.Yasmin wiped her tears and smiled. "It's nothing. I just miss Trist."Ivan understood that being a mother made Yasmin emotional whenever she thought about her child. He then asked, "By the way, how was Trist's winter camp? When is he coming back?"Feelin

Yasmin huffed in exasperation. "I just stole his proposal a few days ago, and now he's starting to get suspicious. If I tell him I don't want to take wedding photos, he'll be on to me for sure. If he gets suspicious, my plan will be completely ruined."Blake remained silent on the other end of the line.Yasmin sighed and continued, "It's really not a big deal. This is the last thing I need to do with him. The wedding is in seven days—it'll all be over by then.""When are the wedding photos being taken?" Blake asked.Yasmin hesitated before answering, "Didn't I already tell you? The day after tomorrow, in the afternoon."Blake only replied with a simple, "It's late. Go to sleep." Then, he ended the call.Yasmin could tell he was not all too pleased, but she really didn't want to stir up more trouble than necessary. There were just seven more days to go—Yasmin wanted to get through the final spurt safely and smoothly.…On the day of the wedding dress fitting, Yasmin was having b

Yasmin had no idea what Ivan would do to her if he learned the truth. She feared that if she angered him, he might lock her up somewhere no one would ever find her."I did that because my grandma suggested it to me," Yasmin explained."Your grandma knows about all of this?" Blake asked."Of course. Do you think someone as sharp as her wouldn't notice that every time you visited, we disappeared for hours? She figured it out a long time ago and asked me what was going on between us.""So, you told her everything about us?""Yes, she knows we've reconciled. I even planted a listening device on Ivan. We're hoping to acquire evidence of his illegal activities." Yasmin nodded as she spoke."Did your grandma suggest that to you too?"Yasmin replied briefly, "Yes."Blake let out a soft laugh. "Your grandma is quite the master of strategies.""She really is," Yasmin agreed with a smile. But seconds later, her expression grew serious. "Blake, there's something I need to tell you.""Wha

Yasmin's face turned pale as she realized the extent of the surveillance at the Burke residence."Can the surveillance footage from the study be deleted?" Yasmin asked at the time.The housekeeper shook her head. "It can't be deleted. The surveillance is linked to Mr. Burke's computer. His computer is password-protected, and only he has access to it."Yasmin's heart sank at the news. She knew that once Blake made his move to sabotage Ivan's project, Ivan would inevitably discover that she was involved.Hence, she had already discussed a plan with Imogen to handle the situation. Although the process had been nerve-wracking, everything had gone smoothly. Ivan seemed to believe her explanation.With the project now in jeopardy, Ivan would likely need additional funding, which meant it was unlikely that he would call off the engagement. Yasmin assured herself that Ivan wouldn't do anything drastic to her—not when he needed money from Sander International.After seeing Ivan off, Yasmi

Ivan gently touched Yasmin's face and said softly, "Forget it. Four years ago, you did wrong by him. It's understandable that he threatened you. But don't worry, I've already forced him back to Stanton City."Soon, I'll deal with everyone who has wronged you. I'll make him miserable and ensure he has no time to harass you."Yasmin stared at him in surprise. "Ivo, what are you going to do to those people?""I won't let a single person who hurt you get away with it. However they treated you, I'll make sure they experience the same," Ivan said, his eyes dark with resolve.Yasmin took a deep breath, unable to find the right words.Ivan seemed to realize that his current expression was too grim. He softened his demeanor and asked with a forced smile, "Let me see what you bought for me."Yasmin quickly snapped back to attention and began showing him the gifts she had purchased. Since she had never bought him anything before, Ivan looked somewhat dazed as he looked at the gifts.He pic
