"No, we're going to have a wedding ceremony," Blake replied calmly.

Elise was confused. "But... aren't you already married?"

"We weren't very satisfied with the previous ceremony, so we want to do it again on a larger scale," Blake explained.

Elise bit her lower lip and took a moment to compose herself before asking softly, "When will the wedding take place?"

"In March," Blake answered.

Elise calculated the time in her mind. It was currently January, so their wedding was just two months away.

She looked at Blake's cold and noble profile, not saying another word.

Yasmin noticed Elise was distraught and couldn't help feeling a little pleased.

After dinner, Yasmin ignored Elise completely. She held Blake's arm and leaned into his embrace. "Mr. B, will you accompany me for a walk in the garden?"

"You haven't applied your medication yet. I'll go upstairs and get it for you," Blake said as he went up to the second floor.

Yasmin waited for him at the door.

Elise walked up to her, s

    Yasmin watched from the side, wanting to roll her eyes.Elise really knew how to put on a show.Blake watched Elise's figure disappear into the distance, pursing his lips.Yasmin noticed his expression and snorted coldly, "What? Feeling sorry for her?""I didn't say anything, did I?" Blake showed a helpless expression, then asked, "Do you still need to apply the medicine?"Yasmin didn't speak. Blake pulled her to the sofa, lifted her delicate face, and applied some medicine for her."Don't get so worked up over little things. You should manage your temper." He finished applying the medicine, staring at her intently with a much softer look in his eyes.Yasmin pouted."Didn't I say I'll arrange a teacher and some maids for her? She'll have company from now on.""Alright." Yasmin knew that if she continued to make a fuss, she would just be making trouble for no reason. Thus, she didn't say anything more.Blake asked, "Are we still going for a walk in the garden?""Let's go."Y

    "Yasmin, move!" Blake pushed Yasmin out of the way.Yasmin's leg hit the edge of the shoe cabinet, causing her to wince in pain.She turned around and saw Blake holding Elise's hand. His face was cold and stern. "Elise, there are no bad people here. Give me the scissors and don't do anything rash.""No! She's a bad person. I want to kill her!" Elise struggled desperately.Blake furrowed his brows and snatched the scissors from her hand. He then held her hands tightly and carried her upstairs. "Maria, call Dr. Sawyer to come over."Maria, who was Elise's maid, immediately left upon receiving the order.Yasmin leaned against the couch downstairs, watching as Blake carried Elise up to the second floor while she continued to struggle."Blakey, let me go! I want to kill that bad person. Otherwise, she'll bully me every night!" Elise cried hysterically.Blake's face darkened. Despite her struggles, he dragged her into the master bedroom and wrapped her up with a comforter.After a w

    After taking a shower, Blake climbed into bed and embraced Yasmin from behind.As soon as he wrapped his arms around her, Yasmin woke up. Her delicate face showed no expression as she asked in the darkness, "How is she?""You're awake?" Blake's voice came from behind her.Yasmin said softly while in his embrace, "You woke me up.""She's taken her medication and is fine now." Blake held her tightly and kissed her soft hair.Yasmin showed no emotion and asked, "Is she really sick?"Blake paused for a moment, his voice deepening as he questioned, "Do you think she's faking it?""How could it happen so suddenly? She was fine during dinner, but as soon as she heard about our wedding plans, she had an episode right away."Blake was silent for a moment before speaking softly, "She lost control because she didn't take her medication on time.""Is that so?" Yasmin didn't seem convinced and asked seriously, "Then what are you going to do? Keep taking care of her like this?""At least u

    "I know, Blakey. I'm useless, aren't I? I have this strange illness and have become a burden to you and Yasmin..." Elise sounded increasingly pitiful as she spoke. Her tears flowed ceaselessly.Blake felt helpless and handed her a tissue. "It's not your fault. No one wants to be sick. Don't think too much about it," he comforted her. "Okay." Elise nodded and asked sadly, "Blakey, you won't leave me, right?""No, I won't."Yasmin came downstairs at that moment and happened to overhear their conversation.In the morning glow, she glanced over to find the man standing tall and strikingly handsome. The woman with him was delicate and pure. She asked him not to leave her, and he made her a promise.Yasmin's heart turned cold.She didn't want to be upset, but she felt suffocated. Yasmin didn't feel like eating anymore, so she grabbed her bag and prepared to go to work."Yasmin." Blake looked up and saw her. She was changing her shoes at the door, obviously about to leave.Yasmi

    Blake bit down on her bottom lip—as if punishing her."Let me go!" Yasmin felt extremely aggrieved and struggled against his hold.Why did he punish her just because he was unhappy?What had she done wrong?In this case, Blake was the one at fault!Her heart swelled with anger. She forcefully shoved him backward, but he grabbed both her hands and restrained them behind her back.Yasmin was forced to arch her body back. Blake kissed her again, swallowing her words before they even left her mouth.Yasmin was furious. She couldn't push him away, so she kicked him like a mad cat.But the difference in strength between a man and a woman meant that she couldn't break free from him at all. Her heart was filled with anger and discomfort, so she bit his tongue fiercely."Ah!" Blake felt the pain and released her. A trace of blood dripped from the corner of his mouth.Yasmin looked at him hatefully and blurted out, "Blake, you're a lunatic, a pervert. I hate you!""What did you say? Y

    "Who's your sister-in-law? Don't just go around claiming family ties willy-nilly," Eunice mocked her.Elise said calmly, "Yasmin is my sister-in-law."She looked at Yasmin and said earnestly, "Yasmin, I want to apologize to you for what happened yesterday."Yasmin didn't want to deal with her, so she reached out to pull Eunice's hand. "Forget it, don't waste your time with her.""You stay out of this." Eunice pulled her hand away from Yasmin. Eunice then walked up to Elise, sizing her up. "You look weak and innocent, but your mind is filled with wicked intentions. Calling Blake and Yasmin your brother and sister-in-law; you're nothing but a hussy trying to lure Blake away, aren't you?"Elise's face changed. She weakly said, "I didn't, don't accuse me.""You didn't? Then why are you clinging to Blake? You and Blake are not blood-related. You're an adult capable of living independently. Why do you insist on staying by Blake and Yasmin's side? You simply can't stand seeing them ha

    Yasmin's gaze suddenly turned cold.That said, Blake's face was even colder. "What else did she say?"Maria added, "She said that Ms. Fletcher is clinging to you because she wants to seduce you and drive a wedge between you and Mrs. Ford. That she has ill intentions..."After hearing these words, Blake looked at Yasmin with a dark and cold expression. "Did Eunice say all this?"Yasmin stood motionless at the door. Her face was pale, but she couldn't say anything.Eunice had indeed said those things, but she didn't know Elise would be so fragile. All it took for her to faint was a little pull."Tell her to come and apologize," Blake said to Yasmin.Yasmin clenched her fists. Of course, she didn't want Eunice to come and apologize. Eunice had just stood up for her. If Eunice came to apologize to Elise, how would Yasmin face her in the future?Moreover, Yasmin always felt that Elise was intentionally causing trouble. She knew Yasmin didn't like her, yet she still came to provoke

    If she made that phone call today, she would not be worthy of being Eunice's friend.Despite not having called Eunice, it was Eunice who reached out first. After all, Eunice was the one who pulled Elise, so she naturally had to ask about the situation.She called Yasmin as soon as she got off work. "Yaz, how's that woman?" Yasmin stood at the entrance of the hospital, biting her lip and not speaking."Is it serious?" Eunice was distressed. "If I had known she was so frail, I wouldn't have touched her."Yasmin didn't know what to say.Eunice continued, "Which hospital are you at? Is Blake there? What did he say? Do I need to apologize to Elise and pay for her medical expenses?""Eunice..." Yasmin couldn't help but call out to her friend.Eunice took a deep breath and said, "It's okay, I did this. She fainted, so I have to take responsibility. I'll go to the hospital and talk to her. Even if I have to go to jail for it, I will—""Eunice," Yasmin interrupted her. "Are we friends

    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
