Yasmin rushed over to the studio to grab something.However, when she opened the door, the entire studio was a mess, with things scattered everywhere.Shocked, she asked Sarah, "What's going on, Sarah? Was there a break-in last night?""I don't know. I just arrived." Sarah was just as confused as she was.Yasmin asked, "What about Amy? Has she arrived?""Not yet.""But it's already past nine." Feeling a sudden sense of unease, Yasmin frantically instructed Sarah, "Quick! Check the warehouse to see if the new designs are still there!"Sarah immediately rushed over to the warehouse.Meanwhile, Yasmin ran upstairs and saw that her office was in a mess as well. Her laptop had also been smashed. Her face paled as she bent down to grab the drawings of her designs.But then, she realized that the locks on her drawer had been smashed apart, and all the drawings were gone.Yasmin was shell-shocked. Just then, Sarah ran up anxiously and said, "Ms. Starr, all the designs are gone!"

Yasmin's head was a mess as she walked out of the police station, and she didn't know what to do anymore.After some thought, she decided to give Ivan a call. Ivan was silent for a while before comforting her, "Don't panic. I'll send someone to track her down.""Can you find her?""I'll try." Ivan hung up after comforting her.Meanwhile on Ivan's side, Summer poured him a cup of coffee and asked, "Mr. Burke, are you really going to help Ms. Starr find that woman?"Ivan was sitting on the sofa flipping through some documents as he asked, "How much would Yasmin need to pay if she breaches the contract?"Summer replied, "We spent 50 million on publicity in Eulandia and Aventia before and after the new product launch. So, if we can't sell the designs, she'll probably need to pay 50 million dollars in compensation."Ivan pondered for a moment. "Start drawing up a contract. Have her compensate the 50 million dollars."Summer was surprised. "Sir, aren't we going to look for Amy Adam

Blake glanced at Giselle. She smiled. "Are you hungry, Blake? Shall I ask someone to send us some food?""No need for that."As soon as he spoke, the operation lights turned off. Then, several doctors came out, including Joel. He wasn't a gastroenterologist, but he had been observing the operation. He told Blake, "The removal went smoothly, but it was still a major surgery. So, your mom will need to stay here for observation for another week or two."Blake nodded solemnly. Then, Joel said, "You don't have to be too worried. I'll take care of her.""Thanks."The ICU only allowed one-hour visits through the glass window, so Blake left soon after visiting Annalise.Meanwhile, Giselle followed closely behind him. "Let's leave together, Blake," she said.Before Annalise was taken in for her surgery, Giselle had been busy taking care of her and comforting her. So, Blake was still grateful toward her. "Thank you.""It was nothing. Like I said, I think of her as my own mother,"

In the hospital, Erik handed the bowl of soup to Yasmin. "Your employee stole your design drawings?"Yasmin was surprised. "How did you know?""I just had to ask around." Erik sat on the chair, looking quite handsome.Yasmin sighed. She didn't expect news to travel so quickly. Didn't that mean that her reputation was already ruined?Erik stared at her as she remained silent. He said, "Actually, you don't have to look so down. You'll be able to clear your name if you can find Amy Adams or the person who framed you.""Easier said than done. Amy Adams has gone abroad, so it won't be easy to find her now." Yasmin was weary. Although Ivan had said he'd help her search for Amy, he most likely wouldn't have time for that now that he was in hot water as well. Erik raised an eyebrow. "I can help you with that.""You'll look for her?""Mm-hmm."Yasmin studied him. "Why would you help me?""Don't I still owe you an apology for what happened last time?" Erik replied. Yasmin was

Erik was displeased to see Blake push the bowl of soup aside. Frowning, he protested, "Blake, Yasmin likes the soup I bought."But Blake glared at him and stood up. "Come outside."Erik glanced at Yasmin and saw her talking to Malcolm. "I thought Cirrus closes at ten," he said."Mr. Ford called the chef," Malcolm answered.Erik then pursed his lips and followed Blake outside.In the corridor, the two men confronted each other. Towering over the younger man, Blake ordered, "Stop bothering her from now on.""What do you mean 'bothering her'? We're friends.""I have no problem with you two being friends, but don't blame me for what happens if you have any other intentions." This was the first time Blake was openly expressing his emotions.In the past, he had always kept his feelings well hidden. But now, he was practically ordering Erik to stay away from Yasmin. Erik wasn't happy either. "You're already divorced. There are only about ten days left in the cooling period. An

Yasmin's fever returned in the middle of the night, so Blake called the doctor in.The doctor told him that Yasmin had already been given a fever reducer earlier and couldn't have more for the next few hours. So, they could only try to physically reduce her temperature.Blake studied Yasmin and flushed cheeks as she mumbled incoherently. Then, he removed his coat and rolled up his sleeves before bringing over a basin of warm water to cool her off."Dad…" Yasmin mumbled as her lashes quivered slightly. Blake leaned in closer to listen to what she was saying.In her feverish state, Yasmin murmured, "D-Don't worry, Dad… I'll get you out soon…"Blake's eyes darkened when he heard this, and thoughts began filling his head."It's so cold…" Yasmin suddenly wrapped her arms around herself and shivered.She was freezing and felt as though her entire body was submerged in an ice bath.She almost wanted to curl up into herself to warm her body up, but Blake quickly hugged her, as if he

Yasmin stammered, "T-That's because I h-had a fever…""So, being delirious from a fever means you can act naughtily?"Yasmin didn't know how to answer him. But before she knew it, he was kissing her again and gently nipping her lips from time to time. He panted, "You need to compensate me for the torment you put me through."The kiss stole away Yasmin's oxygen, and her head was feeling fuzzy. She responded without thinking, "What do you want then?""Come here. Let me hug you." Blake pulled her close, her back pressing against his chest. His hand then slowly crept under her shirt as he began to gently knead her. Yasmin's breathing became unsteady. "I still have a fever…" she said in a shaky voice. "I won't do anything else."Yasmin's body was weak right now, so Blake wouldn't take things too far. But he still needed to find some relief. Hence, separated by the layers of fabric, he could only do it to her legs. Yasmin blushed fiercely, too embarrassed to move.After s

Blake snorted. "I've already said this before. Hunters only throw baits to lure their prey.""Burke isn't as good as he seems then," Joel remarked."Only that idiot would believe him.""Are you going to help her sort out this matter?" Joel asked curiously. "I'll wait until she asks me to," Blake retorted.After visiting Annalise, Blake headed to his office.…In the afternoon, Erik came to visit Yasmin.He was actually quite a tall, handsome young lad."What are you doing here?" Yasmin was surprised to see him holding a bouquet of flowers. In fact, she was struggling to adapt to how unusual he was being. "I came to visit you." Erik waved the bouquet. "Where should I put these?""Just leave them there," Yasmin replied.Once Erik set the flowers down, he sat down in front of her and asked, "How do you feel now?""Just tell me what you want." Yasmin had no idea what was going through his mind.Erik sighed. "I wanted to talk to you about Amy Adams.""Did you find her?""N

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
