"What? You're coming again tomorrow?" Yasmin was surprised.Blake nodded. "Of course. Now that we've made up, I need to keep an eye on you so someone else doesn't steal you away."Yasmin forced a smile. Although she was nodding on the outside, she was actually very reluctant to see Blake again.Soon, Blake left, and Yasmin returned to the villa and quietly sat on the sofa. She was lost in thought.When Stuart returned home at night, she asked, "How's Grandma?""Same old, same old. Her blood pressure and blood sugar still aren't under control, so she'll need to be sent to a nursing home," Stuart answered.Yasmin sighed.Suddenly, she heard Stuart say, "I was on the phone with Ivan this afternoon. It turns out that he's been sent to Rimmervale."Yasmin was surprised. "Was it because of Blake?""Yeah."Yasmin felt a pang of guilt. She knew that it was probably her fault Ivan was sent there."I told him of our plans to move to Merania, and he was very supportive of it. He even s
"Then when will you forgive me?" Blake hugged Yasmin as if he was pleading with her. Yasmin moved back slightly and said, "You need to court me first. I'll forgive you once I'm satisfied with your improvements.""Alright." Blake then wrapped himself around Yasmin like a giant dog. His breath fell on her ear as he whispered, "Let's go on a date after you finish work."A mix of emotions whirred inside Yasmin. "Where do you want to go?" she asked."Let's go for dinner before watching a movie. I'm up to anything as long as we're together.""Then wait until I finish work," Yasmin said.With that, Blake obediently let her go. Yasmin's heart was pounding. However, she suppressed her discomfort and left Blake's embrace to sit back down on her chair. Meanwhile, Blake sat on the chair opposite her and beamed at her as though she were his treasure.Upon seeing this, Yasmin started to feel uneasy. Even since they'd brought up divorce for the second time, Blake had been acting clingie
"Why didn't you say so earlier?" Blake went to sit beside Yasmin and wrapped his arms around her.Yasmin's heart skipped a beat as she felt his hands rest on her belly, and she could feel her throat tightening from nervousness.Then, in the next second, Blake gently rubbed her stomach and softly asked, "Does it still hurt?"Yasmin stayed still for a moment before shaking her head. "No. I just feel bloated.""It has to be because of how irregularly you eat your meals. I've told you before that your health isn't the best, so you should eat all three meals on time." Although Blake was scolding her, he didn't seem mad at her at all. Meanwhile, Yasmin stiffly sat in his arms with her back against his chest. She felt uncomfortable with the way his arms were circling her waist."I'm hungry," she said, trying to wriggle out of his arms.However, Blake didn't let her go. Instead, he pressed his warm chest against her back. It stirred Yasmin's emotions even more, and she was starting
With his rock-solid abs, Blake's sensual figure was on full display, and Yasmin's eyes looked everywhere but him. A man's body was just as tempting to a woman as a woman's was to a man's, and Yasmin could lose her mind if she wasn't careful. Yasmin slowly made her way toward Blake and heard him chuckling. "Why aren't you looking at me? Are you shy?" He lifted her chin playfully. Yasmin forced a smile. "Yeah.""Don't be. It's not anything you haven't seen before." Blake smiled and led her to the pools. However, Yasmin didn't enter the water and simply sat by the edge, dipping her feet. Meanwhile, Blake sat inside the pool and stared at her with an intense gaze, his eyes filled with temptation. If this were in the past, Yasmin would've already lunged toward him in such a situation. Now, however, Yasmin was busy struggling to keep her feelings for him in check.So, she turned away and looked at the distant mountains instead.But suddenly, Yasmin felt a hand grabbing her ank
Yasmin's actions made Blake realize that she really didn't want him to touch her."Are you rejecting me right now? Do you hate me?" Blake's eyes turned cold, and he sounded somewhat aggressive.Yasmin's nightgown had been pulled down, and it hung loosely on her bare arms. She was afraid that Blake would force himself on her. After taking a few deep breaths, she said indifferently, "Of course. You always cared for Elise and ignored me. Of course I hate you. Our relationship has already fallen apart."I told you, there's nothing between us," Blake replied."But even if there's nothing going on, I still do mind it. Our relationship has fallen apart, and it can't be fixed just because you say so." Yasmin raised her eyes to meet Blake's. "You hurt me, and you have to give me time to heal. "But if you want me to go back with you without you having considered my feelings, then I'm sorry. I won't ever forgive you!"Blake's breathing became heavier as blood continued dripping from his
Blake looked at Yasmin for a few minutes and couldn't help but laugh. "As a designer, do you not care about your image anymore?""I was too lazy to change," Yasmin said, sounding unhappy.Blake then walked over and hugged Yasmin's petite figure. He charmingly laughed. "Don't be unhappy. I'll take you somewhere."However, Yasmin was uninterested in his proposal and said, "I don't want to go.""Let's go," Blake coaxed her anyway.Then, once Yasmin got into the car, he handed her a breakfast box. It was a sloppily arranged breakfast, and it was clearly made by a certain someone.Yasmin was surprised. She looked at Blake and said, "Don't tell me you made this breakfast.""Yes. I made it." Blake smiled tenderly. "Try it.""Why did you make breakfast?""Didn't I make you angry last night? I wanted to make you happy, so I made you breakfast with love. Just like you used to do for me." Blake smiled.At this, Yasmin felt a bit complicated.It was true that before, she was always th
As Yasmin was lost in thought, Blake embraced her from behind and rested his chin on her shoulder. He gently said, "Shall we have a wedding?"Yasmin's eyelashes fluttered.Blake continued, "Didn't we pick a good day in March last year? It's around the corner. Let's hold our wedding then."Yasmin's pupils contracted.Blake called the staff to take down the two sets of wedding gowns and asked her to try them on. However, Yasmin stood still without moving."Yaz?" Blake's deep gaze fell upon her.Yasmin looked up, gazing once more at the stunningly beautiful wedding dress under the soft light.She absolutely did not want to wear that dress with her current feelings. After all, she had put so much effort into designing the dress. So, she would rather preserve it forever than ruin it like this. After a long pause, she said, "I don't want to wear it.""Why?" Blake's gaze focused on her, and it seemed to grow deeper and deeper.Yasmin clenched her fists, unable to hold back any long
Blake fiercely glared at Yasmin and was about to leave.However, Yasmin called out to him, "Blake!" She then pleaded with him and said, "Please, I beg you. Let me go. I really don't want to be with you."Blake's pupils contracted, and he turned his head to give her a gloomy look. "I don't agree with it. And before I agree with anything, you're not allowed to go anywhere!"With that, he slammed the door and left.Meanwhile, Yasmin stood motionlessly in place with her long hair hanging over her face. …When Yasmin returned to Newphoria Bay in the afternoon, Stuart was having lunch at home. Upon seeing Yasmin come in with a troubled expression, he asked, "Did you go out with Blake today?""Yes." Yasmin nodded with a bitter smile."Did he bully you?""No," Yasmin's voice was gentle and low as she spoke. "I just told him again that I wanted a divorce, but he didn't agree to it."Stuart looked at Yasmin's face and stroked her head. "In the next couple of days, I'll handle Starr
