Annalise's eyes flashed with obvious disgust, but she had no more questions. Then, without even glancing at Yasmin, she walked away.Yasmin quietly breathed a sigh of relief.However, after Annalise had taken a few steps, she suddenly heard a woman's voice. "Mrs. Ford." It was Giselle.Giselle had also seen Annalise, but she didn't panic, and instead, maintained her soft-spoken demeanor."What are you doing here?" Annalise's friendly demeanor completely disappeared as soon as she saw Giselle.Giselle's actions had made her the laughingstock of high society. And now, everyone was talking about how she insisted on bringing someone else's child into the Ford family as the heir. Annalise had been so embarrassed that she didn't even want to leave the house!So, it was understandable that she wasn't happy to see Giselle.Giselle looked up at Annalise, her eyes quickly filling with tears. "Mrs. Ford, I've been feeling guilty for the past few days. I've been to your house countles
Soom, the medical team rushed over, and Giselle was wheeled away on a gurney toward the operating room.Giselle became pale as chalk as she clutched the nurse's hand, yelling, "Get Dr. Brown! He's my primary doctor!"Then, Giselle was taken away, leaving Annalise in a state of shock. She never imagined that her failure to catch Giselle would result in a miscarriage.Annalise then recalled Yasmin grabbing onto her just moments ago. So, she turned to Yasmin and coldly stared at her. "Yasmin, what were you doing just now? She fell because I couldn't catch her, do you understand?"Yasmin had seen Giselle being taken away as she'd bled heavily, and although Yasmin did panic for a moment, she still didn't regret her actions.Instantly, she remembered the conversation between Giselle and Benjamin in the corridor.Giselle had suddenly acted like she was about to faint. However, Yasmin suspected that she was planning to faint to blame Annalise for the loss of her child instead.But fortu
Meanwhile, Yasmin silently stood in the corner. The nurse hadn't come out yet, so Yasmin didn't know what to say.Then, everyone, including Annalise, followed Giselle to the ward. Giselle was hysterically crying as she said, "I was carrying my baby just fine. How could my baby suddenly die? Mrs. Ford, why didn't you catch me when I fell? If you had, maybe my baby would still be alive…"Annalise looked solemn.But just then, the nurse came out and told the housekeeper what had happened in the operating room.The housekeeper nodded after listening to what the nurse said. Then, he went over to Annalise and whispered, "The nurse checked the delivery room. She said the baby was born without a heartbeat and was already purple. The baby wasn't breathing."Annalise's face turned cold.Meanwhile, Giselle was still crying. "Mrs. Ford, how could my baby have died?"Annalise looked at her, her initial guilt now gone. Then, she turned to Benjamin and coldly asked, "Dr. Brown, can you b
Giselle's eyes flickered with a hint of panic when she heard what Blake said, and her tears abruptly halted.Blake then tossed a document onto Giselle's bed. After Joel mentioned that something was off last night, Blake had sent Malcolm to investigate. Then, Malcolm discovered the truth that morning and immediately informed him.However, Blake didn't expect Giselle to cause trouble in the hospital."No wonder you insisted on apologizing to Yasmin at Oak Garden yesterday. You wanted to pin the blame on her. And when Yasmin refused to see you, you decided to frame my mom today. "Giselle, you really had some nerve to do that!"Giselle's face significantly paled as she quickly turned to look at Annalise.Meanwhile, Annalise's eyebrows were furrowed, and she glared at Giselle with a cold gaze. She finally understood why Yasmin had pulled her away—it was the second time Giselle had done something like this.Annalise now felt a sudden sense of relief. Fortunately, Yasmin had pul
Yasmin couldn't help but smile."But I wasn't always nice to you," Annalise said. "Don't you hate me? If you hadn't stopped me earlier, I might've been the one who was in trouble instead."Yasmin shook her head and replied, "I don't want you to suffer because of her like I did."Annalise was surprised. She hadn't expected Yasmin to not hold a grudge against her, especially after all the times she's forced her to take the herbal medicine and constantly looked down on her…A wave of guilt washed over Annalise. Then, before she left, she kindly said, "If you have time, you're welcome to come visit me in Stanton Bay.""Okay." Yasmin said before watching Annalise leave.After settling everything, Blake walked over and asked, "Where's my mother?""She left," Yasmin answered."What did she say to you?" Blake had seen Annalise patting Yasmin's head, so he figured that she wasn't scolding her.Yasmin smiled and said, "Your mom said she misjudged me before and said that I was a good g
"Back then…"Stuart recalled the incident from many years ago and began, "There were seven of us. We brought our newly developed chip to Merania to discuss investments. We were thrilled when Meranian took interest, but we later found out that they wanted us to sell the product and never produce it again.""Initially, we didn't agree, but Meranian insisted that if we didn't sell the product, we wouldn't be allowed to return to our country. Hence, under this threat, the team members decided to sell it, believing that we could develop another new type of technology. "However, James refused to agree, no matter what.""I already know all of that," Blake replied. "What I want to know is why my father jumped off the building."Stuart sighed. "That night, some team members invited James out for drinks. They planned to get him drunk enough to sign the transfer documents. "But things went horribly wrong.""Did you push my father off the building?" Blake's eyes grew cold."No. That's no
Blake learned that James had been beaten by several people that night.He imagined his father's despair as he, a brilliant man who had developed such an advanced chip, was brutally tortured and eventually pushed off a building.And from that moment on, he was determined to make those responsible for his father's death pay."I don't know." Stuart shook his head. "I drank too much that night. I can't remember anything.""Did you lay a hand on my father?" Blake stared at Stuart, demanding an answer.Stuart was taken aback by his gaze and went pale as he shook his head. "I really don't know. I can't remember…"Stuart had arrived later that night, and when he got there, everyone said that James had signed the contract. He was happy, so he took a drink from his teammate. But after that, everything became a blur, and he really couldn't remember if he'd killed James.Staurt said to Blake, "I really can't remember. You should investigate. If I did it by accident that night, I… will turn
After some time, Blake heard a crashing sound from outside, as if something had fallen. His expression shifted, and he went to open the door.There, Yasmin stood with blood on her hands, looking up at him. Blake was wearing casual home clothes and showed no signs of having just woken up.Yasmin paused for a moment and asked, "You weren't asleep?"Blake's expression was cold, but his gaze was on her hands rather than her face. Yasmin's fair fingers had gotten cut by the broken pieces of the plate. Blake frowned and picked Yasmin up before going into the room."How could you be so careless?" Blake grabbed the first aid box and gently applied medicine to her wounds.Yasmin quietly looked at Blake's handsome face as her eyes turned red. "Mr. B, why are you ignoring me?""I'm not ignoring you," Blake said, his bandaging movements slowing down.Yasmin said sadly, "No, you're lying. Ever since we came back from the hospital in the afternoon, you've been ignoring me. I held your
