Giselle immediately phoned Blake.…At that moment, Blake was at Oak Garden. The family doctor had arrived and was treating Yasmin's wound.Blake received Giselle's call and walked out of the room, "What do you want?""Blake, I heard that my fans went to cause trouble at Erinnyes," Giselle said gently. "I heard that they'd been arrested. Could you let them off?""If you knew that they would cause trouble, why didn't you stop them earlier?" Blake's voice was cold. "Or did you instigate your fans to go and cause trouble for Yasmin?""How's that possible?" Giselle felt guilty. She bit her lip and said resolutely, "I didn't look at my phone because I was busy taking care of Anna at the hospital. "I didn't know about any of this, and Annie only just told me that the fans were arrested because of this matter. Moreover, they're all 18, 19-year-old students. It's not good for them to have a criminal record.""They deserve to be punished for their mad and unruly behavior. Only then t
After dealing with the matter, Blake went back to the bedroom.By the time he returned, the family doctor had finished treating and bandaging Yasmin's wound.At that moment, Yasmin was on the phone with Ivan.Ivan had seen the news online and had phoned her. "I just saw the news that you were attacked by Giselle's fans. How are you?" he asked.The livestream had abruptly ended when the policemen appeared, so no one online knew what happened after that."I'm fine for now," Yasmin said gently.Ivan said, "That mob was crazy, and their comments were abominable. I've asked someone to help you delete the Trending News."Summer had been tasked to do so. Yasmin felt moved. "Thank you, Ivo.""It's a small matter. After all, our mothers were good friends. And since you don't have any relatives to look out for you, I should be looking out for you instead," Ivan said warmly.This seemed like something an older brother would say, and Yasmin had always wanted an older brother. So, whe
Yasmin ruthlessly bit down hard on Blake's tongue.Upon feeling the pain, Blake let go of her, and a sliver of blood trickled down the corner of his mouth.He wiped the blood away with a dark expression. "Why do you like biting people so much?"Yasmin saw the foreboding gloom in Blake's gaze and was slightly frightened. She wanted to back away, but Blake gripped her head and bit down hard on her collarbone.He left deep tooth marks on her skin, causing it to bleed.Yasmin scrunched her eyebrows up in pain. "Blake, let go of me. You're hurting me…"But Blake wouldn't let Yasmin go and even restrained her hands to the top of her head. Then, he bit down even harder and used his tongue to gently caress the wound. It made Yasmin tremble in fear and pain.Then she heard Blake say, "You bit me once, and now I'm biting you back. It's only fair."Yasmin wanted to give Blake the death stare, but her eyes were red-rimmed and didn't look the least bit threatening. On the contrary, it m
When Yasmin woke up, she discovered that all the online discussion about the matter had disappeared. Ivan had successfully removed all the trending discussions.Touched, she thought of treating him to a meal as thanks. However, just as she finished freshening up, she received Giselle's call."Yasmin, could you come to the hospital right now? Anna wants to see you," Giselle said as she stood in the corridor. Since Blake had refused to help her resolve the issue, she decided to ask Annalise for help instead.Yasmin's heart skipped a beat when she heard that her mother-in-law wanted to see her. "What does she need me for?""You'll find out when you arrive," Giselle answered vaguely.So, Yasmin pursed her lips and eventually drove to the hospital.When she entered the hospital room, she immediately spotted Annalise and Giselle. Annalise's complexion was still pale, but she was looking much better than before her surgery.Yasmin walked in and called, "Anna.""Kneel." Those w
Annalise's chest heaved in anger. When Yasmin saw this, she wanted to leave. She didn't want to be dragged into trouble if something happened to Annalise."Mrs. Ford, you should talk to Blake about this. I'll take my leave now." Since Annalise didn't want her to call her "Anna" anymore, Yasmin decided to just call her "Mrs. Ford".With that, she turned to leave.Annalise's eyes turned cold. "Don't you care about your father anymore?"Yasmin froze and spun around.Instantly, a medical chart came hurtling toward her.Yasmin didn't dare to dodge and could only stiffly stand there as one of the chart's corners grazed her cheek, leaving a bleeding cut.Giselle's lips curved upward when she saw this."Call the police immediately and tell them that you won't pursue legal action against the fans anymore," Annalise ordered Yasmin.However, Yasmin remained motionless.Annalise raised an eyebrow. "Aren't you going to do as I said?"Yasmin's heart grew cold.In this world, her fath
Then, Blake said, "Like I said, this matter is no longer up for debate."His tone was angry as he stated, "The lawyers have already sent out letters to all the people who caused trouble, and the trials begin next week."Giselle faltered and turned to Blake with tear-filled eyes. "Blake, they're just children. All they did was insult Yasmin. Do you have to take such extreme actions?"They're barely adults. What will happen to their future if they end up with criminal records?""If you truly cared about them, you wouldn't have encouraged them to stir up trouble in the first place." Blake hadn't intended to say this in front of Annalise. But as expected, Annalise immediately glanced at Giselle.Giselle paled and retorted, "I never did that. I didn't even know what was going on.""Did you really not know, or are you just pretending?" Blake turned his attention to Annie who was hiding in the corner of the room. "Isn't your manager the group admin?"Annie's eyes immediately widened
Annalise glanced at Giselle for a moment before replying, "I only found out about this because of your fans anyway.""I know." Giselle nodded and went onto her knees, her eyes bloodshot. "Still, they're my fans. I can't bear to watch them get thrown into jail…""Stand up first, Giselle." Annalise stopped Giselle from kneeling, worried that the baby might get hurt.Lydia then quickly helped Giselle up.After getting up, Giselle turned to look at Blake.Annalise immediately understood what Giselle wanted and turned to Blake, saying, "Blake, can you forgive Giselle's fans? Just this once?""No chance," Blake retorted bluntly. Giselle's expression stiffened in despair.Seeing this, Yasmin silently sneered and left after bidding Annalise goodbye.However, Annalise simply remained quiet because Blake was still present. Then, with Blake's help, she sat up on the bed and began taking some supplements. Giselle then walked over and began massaging Annalise's legs.Annalise couldn'
"Probably. I guess Giselle really knows how to get on people's good side. My mother-in-law can't wait for her to get married to Blake," Yasmin said."What are you going to do then?" As an unmarried woman, Eunice was at a loss as well. Yasmin replied nonchalantly, "It's better to just end things. Marriage has been exhausting, and I miss being single.""Can you let go of Blake though?" Considering everything that Blake had done lately, even Eunice was starting to feel touched.But instead of answering her question, Yasmin picked up a pen and started sketching. "Let's stop talking about this. I have work to do."Eunice stared at Yasmin, sensing her friend's unhappiness. However, she didn't know what to say and could only quietly leave the room. …That night, Blake returned to Newphoria Bay after getting off work. "Welcome home, Mr. Ford," Mary greeted, taking Blake's coat.Blake calmly asked, "Where's Yasmin?""She hasn't returned yet."Blake paused before saying, "You can
