Stepping into the ward, Yasmin felt her heart racing.

Stuart's face slowly came into Yasmin's view. He was on the sick bed and looking much slimmer. Still, his cheeks were rosy, which indicated he'd been well taken care of.

Yasmin stared at Stuart quietly with a serious expression.

Next to Yasmin, Blake kept watching her wordlessly.

Time passed as the two stood in silence.

"It's time to go," Joel eventually told Blake as the session was over.

The ICU needed to stay sterile. Once the examination was done, everyone had to go.

"Got it." Blake nodded and looked at Yasmin. She quietly stood rooted to the ground and fixed her gaze on Stuart.

"Let her stay a little longer." Blake stopped Joel from approaching Yasmin.

Joel was understanding. He grinned and said, "Let's head out first."

A group of people subsequently left the ward.

The stunning female doctor trailed behind, waiting for Blake and Joel to catch up to her.

Once Blake and Joel were before her, the female doctor greeted,

    Joel said, "Yeah. You didn't know about this then because you were studying overseas. Blake and Yasmin got married secretly two years ago, so not many people in your family know about this. Your grandmother should know, though."Lixxi and Blake both shared the same maternal grandmother, Adelle Keating. Lixxi nodded and turned her gaze away from Yasmin. "I know about the marriage because Grandma told me, but I heard that they divorced half a year ago?""They are divorced. But Blake can't get over Yasmin, so he wants to get back with her."Lixxi frowned. "I heard she can't conceive?""She has a special condition that makes it challenging, but she can still conceive," Joel replied. If Yasmin had been unable to conceive, she would not have been pregnant six months ago. That said, the timing wasn't right, and she had some complications with the pregnancy. If there hadn't been complications, the baby would have already been born.…Yasmin and Blake stood at the door."You just

    Yasmin set the pen down as if she was not going to sign the contract.When Malcolm saw this, he quickly said, "Mrs. Ford, it was hard for Mr. Ford to secure this contract. He used a lot of effort, manpower, connections, and resources to contact Dr. Myers, who is a busy man. If you miss this opportunity, the chances of Mr. Starr waking up will greatly diminish."Yasmin looked at Malcolm, slightly stumped. Malcolm quickly added, "Dr. Myers is willing to go back and forth between countries to agree to this contract because Mr. Ford's persistence and sincerity moved him. Mrs. Ford, Mr. Ford cares about you immensely. He will spare no effort to alleviate the ache in your heart and ensure your happiness."I hope that you will take this into serious consideration. Mr. Ford does not intend to force you into doing anything. All he hopes for is a chance to mend the relationship."As he spoke, Yasmin considered the possibility of her father not waking up. What would she do if this was the

    Blake smiled and ladled more soup for Yasmin.Just then, Yasmin's phone rang. Ivan was finally returning her call.When Blake saw Ivan's name on the screen, his heart sank a little, but he didn't say anything.Yasmin stepped away to answer the phone. "Hello."Ivan hadn't answered her call when she contacted him in the afternoon. It was now daylight where he was, so Ivan had likely just woken up."Yasmin, you called?""Yes." When she heard Ivan's voice, Yasmin smiled and said, "Ivo, I've been very successful in my career lately. I wanted to call you to tell you about it."Ivan was her benefactor who had pulled her out of the darkness. Thus, she wanted to share her happiness and success with him too. It was also her way of showing appreciation for him."Congratulations." Yasmin couldn't tell, but Ivan was smiling. "I'm thrilled to hear you've been doing well."Ivan had almost completed his overseas project.Gavin had been very good to Ivan lately. This was because Isaac didn't

    Yasmin had been bullied at the start of her prison sentence.Soon after she was sent in, two other women entered the prison with her. They never approached Yasmin. But every time she encountered danger, those two women would jump in and rescue her. They would then disappear once Yasmin was safe.One day, Yasmin asked them why they always saved her. They told her that their boss had sent them to protect her and to give her more food.Yasmin assumed that Ivan sent those women to help her because he knew how much she was suffering.Blake almost laughed when he heard Yasmin say that.The women he had sent to help Yasmin in prison had been assumed to be Ivan's efforts. No wonder Yasmin had been so dependent on Ivan when she was first released.…After dinner, Yasmin returned to her room to continue working on her designs.Blake washed some strawberries, put them in a bowl, and brought it next to her.Yasmin glanced at the strawberries and looked up at him. "Aren't you going home

    Yasmin stopped eating her sandwich. She wanted to ignore him, but looking at his indignant expression, she couldn't help but mock, "Were you ever moved when I was chasing after you before? "I too cooked for you every day, was at your beck and call, and prepared thick clothes for you during the winter."Blake was slightly stunned. He bent over to gaze at her deeply. "I was moved. If I wasn't, I wouldn't be here."Yasmin's brow twitched and she suddenly couldn't meet his eyes. She looked wary and spat, "Scram.""Shy?" Blake asked with a laugh."No!""Of course you are. Your ears are red."Yasmin was stunned and subconsciously covered her ears. She realized she had been tricked when she saw the mischief in Blake's eyes.She flushed red and couldn't help yelling, "BLAKE FORD!""I'm here." Blake couldn't conceal his laughter.Not wanting to see him, Yasmin pointed at the door and said, "Go home. I don't want you here.""Sure, I was planning on leaving now anyway." Blake actual

    Michelle and Carlos were at the main table.Yasmin went to greet them, "Hi, Michelle. Hello, Mr. Ferguson." Something shifted in Carlos' eyes. He smiled and asked, "Why are you calling me Mr. Ferguson today? You've always called me Carlos."Yasmin smiled. "You're going to be my superior."Michelle said, "Have a seat."Just as Yasmin sat down, Michelle's assistant approached the table and informed, "Ms. Ferguson, Ms. Fletcher is outside. She wants to see Mr. Ferguson."Michelle's smile froze when she heard Elise's name. "It's her again. What a nuisance!"Carlos, don't meet her anymore. I'm concerned that she'll either try to act pitifully to get your sympathy or outright hurt you. She's sick, and she'll just extort you if you meet her now." Carlos' face was as black as thunder. "Michelle, don't worry. I will never trust her again."Elise was a pathological liar. Other than disgust, Carlos had no other feelings toward her. He turned and instructed the assistant, "Go and chas

    Carlos downed a glass of wine and said indifferently, "Pretend I never said that."Elise looked horrified. Just then, the manager came in flanked by security guards. The manager apologized to Michelle as the guards dragged Elise away.Elise's wails echoed throughout the corridor. She was thrown out of the hotel, flushed red with rage.She never expected this day to come. Half a year ago, she had everything she wanted, so how had she lost it all?She wanted Carlos to send her out of the country because her bank account had been frozen.Two days ago, Elise's company was inundated with refund orders after her engagement with Carlos ended and Blake severed ties with her. Someone even claimed that Elise had caused a scandal resulting in losses to the business.

    Blake was on the way home when he saw a hot dog stand by the roadside.Recalling that Yasmin liked the hot dogs from this stand, he asked Malcolm to stop the car and buy some.Blake had gone to a social event where he drank some wine. He loosened his tie and leaned against the door, enjoying the night breeze through the open window. He wanted to let the smell of alcohol on his body dissipate, in case Yasmin disliked the stench.Just then, his phone buzzed.Blake saw a message notification pop up when he looked at his phone. It showed Yasmin being supported by another guy. His face darkened as he clicked on the video. He saw Yasmin leaning against Carlos as he supported her into a car.Blake immediately turned gloomy.Malcolm approached him and asked, "Mr. Ford, they're out of hot dogs. Can we get a cheeseburger instead?"Blake sat in the car blankly. His handsome face was stoic when he said, "No need. Let's go home."Malcolm was stunned. "Didn't you want to get supper for

    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
