In the past, Carlos had always thought that Elise was beautiful. He felt that she was so captivating that it felt like blaspheming a divine being to possess her.It took him several months to get an answer from Elise, so he had been overjoyed and had wholeheartedly loved her.But for some reason, he'd always felt that her heart wasn't truly with him.He couldn't understand why in the past, but today, he realized that it was because of how two-faced Elise was.Her kindness and vulnerability were all just a facade. She clearly hated Yasmin in her heart, yet she put on a pretense of concern for Yasmin. She secretly wished to put Yasmin in dire straits but packaged herself as an innocent victim.Carlos suddenly felt that he had nothing more to say to Elise. So, he put down the strawberries and left.But Elise wouldn't let him leave. Upon seeing him pick up his coat, she weakly said, "Carlos, where are you going? I have a terrible headache. Could you please call the doctor for m
Yasmin walked out of the bedroom with a coat in hand.Blake noticed her and called out, "Yaz."Yasmin turned to him.Blake frowned. After a moment, he set aside the juicer and walked over to her.Seeing Blake approaching, Yasmin took a step back and asked, "What are you doing?""Here," he said as his slender fingertip brushed her neck, fixing her collar that was tucked in. He looked at her and said, "Your collar was tucked in."Yasmin looked helpless. Then, she let out a sigh and was about to put on her shoes."Have some breakfast before you go," Blake said firmly."I'm not eating," she said as she put on her high heels.Blake grabbed her arms with his big hand. With a cold expression, he repeated, "Eat before you go. I've already prepared the food."Having said that, he led her into the kitchen.Yasmin frowned and glared at him. "I said I'm not eating. I have something to do," she said."If you really have something to do, you shouldn't have argued with me now. You just
Yasmin still uttered these words in the end.It proved that she was still deeply bothered by it.Blake halted his actions. After looking at her for a long time, he explained softly, "I am not covering up for her, but…"He had reasons he couldn't avoid. He didn't want Yasmin to know that it was, in fact, Stuart who killed James. However, he couldn't disclose this, even more so now.Their relationship had reached this point. If the truth were revealed, perhaps it would be the end for them.Just think of him being selfish. He selfishly wanted to have her once more.So, he didn't say anything at last.Yasmin ignored him. She was no longer curious about his reasons. Whatever he thought had nothing to do with her. She picked up her bag and left.However, she didn't expect Blake to chase after her. He held her hand and said, "I'll send you."Suspicion flickered in Yasmin's eyes.How did Blake become like this?The once arrogant man now resembled a spineless lapdog…… Blake dro
Yasmin was amused just listening to Michelle.Michelle said, "But it's a good thing that Carlos could see her true colors. If he had married her a little later, it would have certainly harmed our family."Michelle was very grateful to Yasmin.As the two talked, Carlos came from upstairs. With a hand on his forehead, he asked, "Michelle, do we have any antipyretics? I think I'm running a fever…" As he reached downstairs and saw Yasmin, his expression changed a little. He asked, "Why are you here?""I didn't manage to give you the documents yesterday, so I came here today to give them to Michelle," Yasmin replied, waving the folder in her hand.Only then did Carlos recall that Yasmin had come to the company yesterday to hand him the documents. He twitched his lips and apologized, "I'm sorry."Yasmin smiled faintly and responded, "It's okay."She was also glad that Elise's true face was exposed.At that moment, a household staff came in to report, "Mr. Ferguson, Ms. Fletcher i
"No need. If you have something to say, just say it here." Michelle didn't intend to be friendly with Elise.Elise hesitated for a moment, then she glanced at Yasmin.Yasmin smiled.She was in a good mood to see Elise looking weary.Elise saw Yasmin's expression and knew she had definitely done something. She said to Michelle, "Michelle, I came here today to explain about that incident on the news. "I'm really not that bad of a person. I did it mainly because I was afraid of losing Carlos…"Upon hearing this, Michelle raised her eyebrows. She looked at Yasmin and mouthed to her, "You guessed it right."Yasmin smiled.Elise began to feel anxious when she noticed Michelle wasn't paying attention to her. She continued sadly, "Michelle, I did it because I cared too much about Carlos. Ever since Yasmin was released from prison, she always found opportunities to meet Carlos. "I'm Carlos' fiancée. I can't ignore it."I know I've done a lot of wrongdoings, but my feelings for Car
Elise was taken aback. "Who called the police?""It was me." Yasmin walked toward the iron gate. She smiled and said, "I'm also one of the parties involved in the scandal. Since you've tarnished my image in public, I've decided to sue you for defamation."Elise was shaken. Ignoring the presence of many others around, she grabbed the iron gate and shouted angrily, "You bitch! You hooked up with my man, and you dared to call the police on me? Have you got no shame?"She erupted on the spot.Michelle heard her clearly. She furrowed her brows as she stared at her. "Yasmin didn't hook up with Carlos. I've always been the one handling the collaboration between NAS Group and Ferguson Jewelry."She has never met Carlos in private. Don't you blame others when you're caught doing something wrong," Michelle said."Michelle, I'm really not lying this time!" Elise was so angry that she almost cried.Yasmin stood beside her and said slowly through the iron gate, "This is called giving s
Yasmin paused with the teaspoon in her hand. She looked at Carlos and asked, "Why are you apologizing?""I have misunderstood you since the beginning and subsequently formed a bad prejudice against you. So, I'm sorry." When Carlos was ill and felt drowsy last night, he thought about what happened half a year ago.When they first met, Yasmin was about to push Elise into the ocean.At that time, he thought she was an evil woman.However, after all that happened recently, he began to see Elise's true colors. Only then did he realize how hypocritical she was.He hesitated for a while and added, "I'm sorry, and thank you.""And why are you thanking me now?" Yasmin asked, raising an eyebrow.Carlos murmured, "Thank you for letting me see her clearly and understand my own feelings…"As Carlos spoke, Blake suddenly arrived with Malcolm. They entered slowly through the gate, clearly hearing what Carlos said.Yasmin noticed Blake and asked, "Why are you here?""I'm here to pick you u
When Yasmin opened her eyes again, she found herself lying on the couch. Someone was cooking in the kitchen.She glanced over and discovered Blake was in the kitchen.He said that he would frequently come over to cook for her in the future. He was indeed true to his word. Yasmin rubbed her eyes, gently stretched her neck, and sat up."You are awake." Blake handed her a bowl of hot soup. He leaned in with his handsome face and said, "This is a new cooking style for soup I recently learned. Have a taste and see if it's nice."Yasmin glanced at the bowl of soup. Its color was dark. "What's this?" she asked."It's herbal chicken soup," he said with a smile. "I bought the chicken from a small farm. The weather is chilly. You should drink more chicken soup to nourish your body."Yasmin felt disgusted. "Can I not drink it?"The soup seemed really bad.Blake shook his head. "No way. I had it simmered for three hours. You must drink it," he insisted."Did I sleep for that long?"
