Yasmin didn't want to talk to Blake. She walked into the master bedroom and closed the door.Blake's expression changed. He held the door open, not allowing her to close it. "You get upset when I ask you a few questions?"Yasmin took a deep breath and said indifferently, "I'm tired and want to sleep. Don't come looking for a fight."She was never good with words and could never win arguments, so she decided to stay silent. Blake could do whatever he wanted with Elise. She didn't want to think about it anymore. Caring too much would only infuriate her.Of course, she wouldn't let herself harbor feelings for him anymore. She couldn't run away from him or risk offending him, but at the very least, she could ignore him."Who's fighting with you?" Blake stared at her coldly and then pulled her toward him.Yasmin was exhausted, and his sudden pull made her bump into him, causing her to cry out in pain.She felt aggrieved and looked at her feet. "I really don't want to fight with you
It was past 2:30 pm when Blake called her.Yasmin was silent for a moment before answering."Aren't you coming to try on your wedding dress?" Blake asked her over the phone.The bridal company must have informed him. Blake was currently at the bridal company, but after waiting for half an hour, Yasmin still hadn't shown up.Yasmin didn't answer and instead asked, "How is Elise?""She said she felt dizzy last night, so I took her to the hospital.""Then what about after she's discharged? Will you continue taking care of her? Will you keep sending her to the hospital every time something happens, regardless of everything else?"Blake was silent for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "I can't ignore her."Yasmin laughed and said bitterly, "Blake, I'm not coming. You should go back."His answer disappointed her so much that Yasmin decided against taking wedding photos and having the wedding. If they proceeded with the wedding, they wouldn't be happy."You're not coming? What do
When Eunice saw the photos, she was trembling with anger. And so she went to confront Colin.But on her way there, she heard heavy breathing coming from a nearby lounge. She pushed open the door and was shocked to see Colin and Rebecca having sex.Colin was saying to Rebecca, "I never liked her pretentious attitude. She wouldn't even hold my hand. You're much better, you make me feel so good.""Then why don't you break up with her?" Rebecca moaned with pleasure at his touch.Colin thrust forcefully as he spoke, "It's because of the shares she holds. My dad said that if I married her, we could drug her to screw her up mentally. Once she's rendered useless, we can inherit her shares and send her to a mental hospital. Rebecca, once I gain those shares, I'll bring you home for sure.""Colin, you're so good to me." Rebecca wrapped herself around him like a snake.Eunice felt so disgusted by the scene that she almost vomited.As it turns out, Colin had pursued her since college and tr
At the thought of this, Eunice painfully held her head. "Damn it! I shouldn't have drunk so much last night..."She tugged at her hair, her expression filled with pain.After waking up in the morning, she immediately regretted what had happened. How could she have been so foolish? Just to take Mortimer down a peg, she came up with such an absurd idea.However, Mortimer seemed to have enjoyed it. After leaving in the morning, he texted her in the afternoon to ask her out for dinner.He seemed to assume that they were now in a friends-with-benefits relationship.In a fit of anger, Eunice sent a lengthy message berating him—basically telling him that she was out of his league, and he shouldn't dare to aim for the moon!"So, you two hooked up last night, then got into a fight this morning?" Yasmin asked after listening to the whole story."Yes!" Eunice was still tugging at her hair, saying regretfully, "How could I have been so stupid!"She even lost her virginity to him.She
Meanwhile, Yasmin and Eunice were strolling down the pedestrian areas in Meulens.Being on vacation, they were eager to have as much fun as they could.After visiting the theme park during the day, they went to see a lively parade in the evening. Young girls in cultural outfits danced as they went.Eunice beamed and asked, "Are you feeling better now?"Watching the colorful floats parade past them, Yasmin found her mood lightened. "Yes, much better."She stopped dwelling on those upsetting thoughts. She chose instead to dance in circles with the girls in the parade.Suddenly, someone tapped her on the shoulder. She turned around and was surprised to see Ivan."Mr. Burke?" Eunice exclaimed, "Why are you here?"In a fancy suit, Ivan approached with his eyes lit up. He flashed a smile and said, "I was scouting the area for a tourism project. They invited me to a parade, and I just happened to come across you both."Yasmin asked, "Is NAS Group interested in tourism too?""We're p
"Yes," Yasmin admitted. "Since our relationship is over, I'm here to clear my head.""What do you plan to do after that?""I'm going to forget about this relationship and have a fresh start," Yasmin said. She didn't want to deal with the situation between Blake and Elise anymore.She didn't have control over it, so she decided to give up altogether. At the very least, she wouldn't feel hurt anymore.Hearing her words, Blake coldly said, "You want to give up this relationship for a fresh start? Is that why you went on a trip with Ivan?""Stop spouting nonsense," Yasmin refuted. She looked at him and said, "We just happened to come across each other.""Is it a coincidence? I don't believe it."She already gave her explanation. Whether or not he chose to trust her was his own issue. "Trusting me or not is your decision."With that, she turned to leave.He stared at her back with a dangerous gaze. Seeing her turn the doorknob, he growled, "You're not allowed to leave, Yasmin."Sh
Blake's gaze was dangerous.Yasmin couldn't help but fear him when he was like this. She retreated and explained, "We're merely visiting Nimbrovia. It's as simple as that. Why would it tarnish your name?""Do you think I'll believe you?""If you don't trust me, ask Eunice what's going on," she said while glancing to the side.Realizing he didn't have any intention to catch her, she quickly hopped off the bed. Then, she ditched her phone and ran out.Why was Yasmin still running away?Blake erupted in anger.Infuriated, he grabbed her hand and yanked her over. She was trapped in his arms. With a grim expression, he hissed, "Did I allow you to leave?"She was stuck between his arms, unable to break free. All of a sudden, she felt a sharp pain in her stomach. She didn't know why, but she still yelled, "You're hurting me, Blake!"Upon hearing this, he immediately loosened his grip. He grimly commanded, "You're not allowed to go with Ivan tomorrow."Her stubbornness kicked i
When Blake threatened Yasmin with the Starr family, she gave up on resisting.However, she seemed to have become numb to it all, showing no response whatsoever. Out of nowhere, Blake was hit by a profound fear. He desperately wanted to make her his woman.Unfortunately for him, she merely furrowed her brows and let him do as he pleased.There was no pleasure in this for him.He exerted more strength to torture her and bring her more pain.However, she just clenched her teeth. Even when her lips bled from the biting, she refused to make a sound.In the end, he seemed to have lost hope—or perhaps he had lost interest. He grimly yelled, "Get lost!"Yasmin got up from the bed. With a blank expression, she put on her clothes and exited the room.She came back to Room 1301 and knocked on the door.Eunice waited inside the hotel room for a long time. She had also dialed Yasmin's number multiple times.However, Yasmin never answered, so Eunice was extremely worried.Hearing the kn
