"Well, it's just a hunch for now. I can't quite put my finger on it." Yasmin forced a smile.

"You'd better keep an eye on her. Who knows what she has up her sleeve," Eunice warned Yasmin.

Yasmin took the advice to heart and numbly stuffed more food into her mouth.

In the evening, Yasmin finally finished her work and stretched out her sore muscles.

She grabbed her phone to check her social media and immediately came across what Elise posted for the day.

It was a picture of Blake occupied with work.

The caption read, "Blake looks so handsome when he's working!"

This kind of statement seemed more like romantic admiration than sisterly affection.

But before Yasmin could ponder further, Elise's call came in. "Yasmin, Blake and I are downstairs. You can come down now."

Yasmin finally remembered that Elise had asked her and Blake to take her shopping earlier that afternoon.

Powerless to refuse, Yasmin packed up and turned off the lights before leaving the studio with her b

    Upon entering the clothing boutique, Malcolm instructed the staff to close the store.Recognizing that they were wealthy customers, the staff quickly closed the shop and brought out the limited edition items.Since Yasmin seemed uninterested, Elise asked Blake, "Does this outfit look good, Blake? It's pink, I really like it..."Hearing the word "pink", Yasmin subconsciously glanced at her pink diamond bracelet. Since Elise loved pink, she felt like they had something in common.It suddenly felt like a thorn had pierced her heart."I really like this one," Elise said sweetly to Blake as she picked out her clothes.Blake would only say, "If you like it, buy it.""Blakey, do you think it looks good?""It's okay." His tone was consistently flat.Yasmin sat on a sofa in the store, feeling out of place for some reason.After browsing through the clothes, they went to other stores. As they passed by a jewelry store, Elise suddenly said, "Blakey, I want to buy some jewelry."Blake r

    "She's been through a lot, we should be more tolerant of her."Hearing these words, Yasmin felt speechless. Blake was tolerant of Elise because he felt guilty toward her.However, Yasmin felt that Elise was a dangerous person.She didn't want to be threatened by a ticking time bomb. She sneered at him and said, "Then you go be nice to her, goodbye!"With that, she flung his hand off and left.Blake frowned, his expression somewhat unpleasant.As Yasmin stepped out of the mall, the chilly winter wind enveloped her, making her feel a little cold and lonely.She tightened her coat and went to hail a cab.Not long after, the others also exited the mall. Elise walked over and softly called out, "Yasmin."Yasmin glanced at the group while Blake stood under the night sky, his face expressionless.Yasmin mocked, "What? You two didn't continue your date?"Blake's face darkened.Elise said softly, "Yasmin, what are you saying? Don't you trust us?""Do you think it's reasonable to as

    Blake's face hardened, his tone becoming frigid. "What's going on with you? You said not to buy that jewelry, so we didn't buy it. You didn't want dinner, so we all came back without eating. I tried to appease you, but you wouldn't listen. What exactly do you want?"Yasmin pursed her lips and didn't speak. She was unhappy, but she couldn't say anything.From Blake's words, it seemed like they were all accommodating her, and she was the one causing trouble.Indeed, that's what it appeared like. Elise spoke pitifully, while Yasmin had a bad temper—like an unreasonable and shrewish woman.Even if she questioned him, she couldn't get any answers. Earlier, Elise had already made it seem like she was jealous and suspicious of them.In the end, she could only say, "Fine. I have a bad temper, okay? Let go, I want to take a bath and go to sleep.""Let's talk.""I don't want to talk to you right now." Yasmin's face was expressionless.Blake's gaze deepened.Yasmin said, "So, it's ok

    "Blake is the closest person to me in this world. Now that you're married to Blake, I hope you can be kinder to him. The misunderstanding last night made me unable to sleep well, so I got up early to make breakfast for both of you, hoping to get your forgiveness..."Yasmin felt like a fly was buzzing around her ear. She couldn't take it anymore and slapped Elise.A crisp sound echoed in the air.Elise fell to the ground. The breakfast was scattered everywhere."Elise!" Blake's voice rang out.Yasmin's face turned pale as she looked over and saw Blake walking out of the adjacent bedroom, bending down to check on Elise.So he was standing behind the door just now.Elise probably saw Blake, so she deliberately said those words to provoke her."Blakey, I'm fine." Elise covered her face, her eyes filled with unshed tears as she tried to hold back her emotions.Blake pressed his lips together and looked at Yasmin, his eyes darkening.Yasmin stood rigidly in place.From Blake's eye

    Yasmin said, "No, I just don't want to go back.""You don't want to see Elise?""That's right," Yasmin admitted bluntly. She didn't want to interact with Elise in any way.Blake turned his head and stared at her coldly. "You hit Elise so hard that she had to be hospitalized, yet she didn't blame you. And now you're saying you don't want to see her?""I just slapped her once. How could she possibly be hospitalized?" Yasmin looked at him incredulously."She had been in a coma for several years and only recently woke up. Her health was already poor, and now she's in the hospital receiving a blood transfusion."Yasmin pursed her lips.Blake instructed, "Go apologize to her."A feeling of suffocation surged in Yasmin's heart. "I won't go."She turned on her heel and walked toward the road to hail a cab, refusing to even ride in Tyler's car.Blake's face was icy as he got out of the car.Yasmin raised her hand to call for a cab.Just then, her wrist was suddenly grabbed by a stro

    Yasmin looked at both of their faces. Stuart's was full of worry, while Emelda's was fearful.Their family had just gotten back together, so Emelda didn't want Yasmin to offend Blake.Yasmin understood Emelda's gaze and was silent for a moment before saying, "No, I just came back to have a meal with you guys. I'll return after eating."Stuart sighed in relief.Emelda also patted her chest and said, "Yasmin, Blake has helped our family a lot. Be nicer to him and give in to him more."Yasmin lowered her gaze and remained silent.During the meal, Emelda kept nagging, telling her to control her temper and not always argue with Blake.Yasmin didn't want to listen. She quickly finished her meal and headed to the backyard.Stuart followed her out and stood beside her, asking, "Did something happen?"Yasmin shook her head. "No."Stuart knew that she didn't want to talk, so he stood for a while before saying, "This is what marriage is like. There will often be small conflicts. If you

    Yasmin was eventually caught by the three ruffians and pinned to the ground.Her pale face came into the three men's view, and each of them had a look of surprise in their eyes.In the dark of night, they had only noticed her good figure—but now realized her face was even more beautiful, mesmerizingly so.The three men exchanged glances and surrounded Yasmin."Cutie, why did you run? We're not bad guys. We just think you're beautiful and want to be friends with you." One of the ruffians reached out to touch her face.Yasmin was holding a handful of mud. When the man got close, she immediately smeared it in his eyes."Ah!" The man cried out in pain and let go of her.Yasmin immediately pulled her legs close and ran.The other two ruffians reacted quickly and caught up with her. They grabbed her and twisted her arms behind her back, tying her up with a jacket.Yasmin couldn't move and was pushed to the ground.She turned her head and glared fiercely at the two ruffians like a v

    Blake asked, "How is she?""Other than the swelling on one side of her face, there are no other injuries. She should be fine," the female doctor replied.Blake let out a sigh of relief. His gaze fell on her swollen cheek. Her skin was so fair that even a single slap left a noticeable mark.Blake's heart twinged with regret. This was the first time he let her go alone, and she was met with misfortune.If he had known this would happen, he would never have left her alone tonight—no matter what.He worried endlessly. After the female doctor left, he turned to Malcolm and said, "Make sure those three get their punishment. Break their hands and legs, then send them to prison."His face was tense.Malcolm replied, "Yes."After Malcolm left, Blake walked to her bedside and brushed her messy hair away from her face. He carefully examined her injured cheek.It was quite swollen. The doctor had already applied medicine.Blake quietly looked at her face, afraid that her hair would tou

    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
