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
Actually, when Blake was in a good mood, he was really nice. He would take care of Yasmin as if she was a little girl.Later that night, Yasmin insisted on clinging onto Blake.However, Blake frowned and said, "Go down." He wasn't in the mood tonight."What's wrong?" Yasmin still clung to him, her hands roaming over his abs, trying to please him. She sensed that he was unhappy that night and wanted to do something to cheer him up.Blake then let out a low groan as she touched him, and he turned to look at her with a dark gaze. "You want it?"Yasmin was shy and softly said, "Yeah…"Upon hearing this, a dangerous glint flashed in Blake's eyes. Then, he swiftly turned and embraced Yasmin, pressing her onto the bed and passionately kissing her.Yasmin gasped, overwhelmed by the intense kisses.However, Blake wouldn't let her retreat. Instead, he put his hand under her nightgown and deftly removed it.Instantly, Yasmin's face flushed. And before she could react, Blake grabbed her
Suddenly, Blake was concerned about the hardships Yasmin might face, and the struggles she might encounter. But most of all, he feared that she would forget about him and start a family with another man…As he thought of this, all the darkness in his heart seemed to dissipate. If he couldn't accept her leaving him, then he had to separate her from Stuart in his mind. Whatever Stuart had done, it had nothing to do with Yasmin.With this, all the clouds in Blake's heart disappeared, and his eyes became gentle as he walked toward Yasmin.Then, he embraced her and pressed a tender kiss to her soft lips.Yasmin blushed. "Mary's here.""I don't see anything. My eyes are blurry," Mary quickly interjected as she came out from the kitchen. "I almost forgot—I need to water the flowers in the yard."Upon hearing this, Yasmin's face reddened further.But thankfully, Blake didn't intend to do anything. After giving her a kiss, he let her go to have his breakfast.Yasmin then sat across
Then, Eunice said, "What's there to be embarrassed about? I saw the pictures of it when I picked it out. It looked just like a sexy fox."Yasmin was speechless. But despite her reddening face, she eventually opened the box.Then, as soon as Yasmin saw the contents of the box, her face turned even redder, especially when she saw the fluffy tail."Isn't this a bit too weird to wear?" Yasmin asked Eunice. Although it wasn't too revealing, it was clearly a suggestive and provocative style.Eunice replied, "Don't worry. Men love this sort of thing."Although Eunice didn't have any personal experience, she'd read the reviews when buying it, and most of them said that their boyfriends and husbands liked it."Well... Alright then." Yasmin accepted the outfit.…Mortimer and Joel came to Windmere Group in the evening. However, Blake was just about to leave.Mortimer was surprised and asked, "What's going on? Am I seeing things? The workaholic is leaving work at a little past six?"
