The atmosphere suddenly became dead silent.Blake didn't say a word. He opened the door and walked out.Yasmin was fixing the pillows when she saw him come out of the bathroom. She asked, "Haven't you showered yet?"Blake's face was expressionless. He ignored her and walked away, returning to his usual cold demeanor.Yasmin felt a pang in her heart and chased after him; but Blake had already walked downstairs, slammed the door behind him, and left.Outside, a heavy storm was brewing, lightning and thunder crashing repeatedly. He had just walked into the rain without a word.Yasmin reached the door, not understanding why he left or where his sudden anger had come from.Why was he always like this? Just when things seemed fine, he would suddenly change.She stood at the door, watching his figure disappear into the distance. Tears welled up in her eyes.In the middle of the night, Blake got soaked in the rain and drove the Cullinan away.Lightning split the sky, making it blindi
Blake just wanted to torment Yasmin. But seeing the blush on her face, he couldn't help but lose control himself.He took her earlobe into his mouth and roughly tore off her clothes.Yasmin couldn't escape his kisses. As he continued, she began to lose her mind. She called him softly, "Mr. B..."Blake's gaze darkened as he bit down on her soft skin. "Do you like it?"Yasmin's ears grew hot as he spoke close to her chest. His warm breath seemed to go through her skin and into her heart.She murmured drowsily, "I like it..."At her approval, Blake suddenly became wilder. His cool breath turned hot and intense, making her body tremble with his every touch.She felt as if she had lost control of her limbs, burning under his touch. She clung to him, melting into his lap.Yasmin nearly cried the whole night. And just before dawn, the rain finally stopped.Still unsatisfied, Blake pressed against her and commanded, "From now on, you must obey me…""Mm..." Yasmin was already dazed,
Malcolm handed the evidence to Yolanda.After reading the documents, Yolanda cried out in disbelief, "How could this be? Roxy is an innocent child, and Yasmin is her sister-in-law. She wouldn't do such a thing!"Malcolm kept a straight face and passed on Blake's message, "Mr. Blake says if Ms. Roxy doesn't do what she's told, he'll make her regret being born for the rest of her life."Yolanda was so scared her eyelids twitched.She stormed upstairs with the document folder in hand and slapped Roxy awake. "The sky is falling, and you're still sleeping!"Roxy opened her eyes in pain and mumbled, "Mom, what are you doing? I just got fillers last night. What if you've messed up my face?""Mess? I'll show you a mess!" Yolanda threw the evidence in Roxy's face, the contents spilling out.Roxy took one look at the documents now strewn around her. There were photos of her bribing Amy and bank transfer slips.She turned pale with fear. "Mom! How did this happen? Who found out?""Who el
There were people in the yard trimming the bushes and sweeping away the dead leaves. Newphoria Bay seemed to have shaken off its loneliness and was now bursting with life.Yasmin couldn't help but feel her heart race.Mary said, "Mr. Ford also mentioned that once you wake up, I should let you decide where I should stay. Since Newphoria Bay is your home, wherever we stay is completely up to you.""Mary, do you really want to stay here?" Yasmin asked her.Newphoria Bay had three small buildings. The smallest one was previously meant for the housekeepers.If Mary was willing to stay, Yasmin was ready to offer her that building.Mary genuinely liked the kind and lovely Yasmin. Thus, she replied, "Absolutely. I want to stay with you." Yasmin was so delighted that she spun around. She decided to let Mary stay in the small building and entrusted her with all the household chores, making her the housekeeper of Newphoria Bay.Soon, a delivery of new clothes arrived. Thousands of the
"Who knew that douchebag could be so nice." Eunice couldn't help but praise Blake."He's not really a douchebag…" Yasmin explained for him. "Anyway, I just discovered a few days ago that the baby Giselle's carrying isn't his. So let's just keep this between us, okay? Don't go blabbing online, or Giselle might hit you with a lawsuit."Eunice was shocked but smart enough to keep quiet about it. With the O'Shea family on the rise, she definitely didn't want to mess with them. Still, it was good that Yasmin's name was cleared and the truth was revealed....Meanwhile, in Merania, Ivan squinted when he saw the advertisement Roxy had broadcasted on TV.He had been waiting for this moment, hoping Yasmin would be saddled with a huge debt of 50 million and then come to NAS Group to negotiate.After that, he would propose to acquire Erinnyes and offer Yasmin a job at NAS Group. Next, he would pursue her and make her fall in love with him. Thus, Yasmin would be his.However, his plan h
"Why didn't you go upstairs to sleep?" Blake asked.Yasmin's face was flushed with sleep. She rubbed her eyes, only then realizing she was in his arms. His body heat warmed her."I was waiting for you to come back for dinner," she said softly.Blake was stunned, his gaze softening. "Fell asleep waiting?""Yeah. You didn't say when you'd be back." She felt a little embarrassed. "You can put me down now."Instead of putting her down, Blake carried her straight to the kitchen. Her bare feet dangled without slippers."Where are your shoes?" Blake asked, setting her on a dining chair."By the sofa."Blake went to fetch her cute little cotton shoes, squatting down to slip them on her feet. "It's getting cold, so remember to wear socks.""Okay," she responded, feeling the warmth of the moment.Blake could be really gentle. If life were just about the day-to-day, he'd be the ideal man—successful and faithful, a real catch.Dinner was already laid out on the table."Let's eat." Blak
"Done." After licking off the milk foam, he felt satisfied and let her go.Yasmin's face turned red. She ran off like a little bunny.Blake laughed. Was she really that shy?After finishing his dinner, he went upstairs to look for her. However, he didn't find her in her room. He called out, "Yasmin.""I'm here." Yasmin poked her head out from the attic, holding a book."What are you doing up there?"Her lips curved into a smile. "This is my secret hideout. Wanna come up?" Yasmin invited him, her eyes sparkling with anticipation.Blake wasn't interested in the attic. But seeing her enthusiasm, he didn't refuse and climbed the stairs.Yasmin said gleefully, "Look, my hideout hasn't changed at all."When the house was cleared out, the court forgot the attic. As such, everything there was left untouched.Blake looked around. There was a dressing table, a bookshelf, hundreds of dolls, and many photo albums. Clearly, she grew up surrounded by love. That was why she was so innocent.
"Why? Do you have secrets here that you can't share?" Blake turned to ask her.Yasmin wouldn't say. Her face was flushed a deep red as she pushed him toward the slide. "Anyway, this is my private space. You can't just barge in. Go down the slide, hurry!""I don't want. That's for kids." Blake refused to use the slide."It's convenient. You have no idea how cool my room is. If you climb out the attic window, you land straight in the pool. You can dive straight in from here."Blake was baffled by her room's design. "Your dad wasn't scared you'd fall to your death?"She could climb out to an apricot tree from her room and dive into a pool from the attic. Didn't her dad consider the possibility of an accident when he designed this room?"That's the fun part. What would you know, old man?" Yasmin insisted on him taking the slide down.Blake wouldn't budge. Somehow, they ended up sliding down together. Blake was worried she might fall, so he held her tight.They landed at the bottom,
