Blake suddenly got into the water and hugged her from behind."Your leg…" Yasmin said urgently."It's fine. The doctor checked it this morning and said the wound has healed. It's okay to get it wet, but I'll have to be careful not to strain it," he whispered with a husky voice in her ear.Yasmin realized something and blushed. "Did you go to the hospital this morning just to check if you could…"To check if he could be intimate?"Yes." He held her tightly, his body pressing closely against hers, and said seductively, "The doctor said it's okay to get in the water but didn't recommend it.""Then why did you still get in?""Because you're too tempting." Blake kissed her neck from behind. He hadn't planned on getting in, but seeing her in the water, so delicate and alluring, made it impossible for him to resist.As he bit her gently, Yasmin's breathing became erratic. She clung to her last bit of reason. "You should get out. Don't strain yourself…""It'll be fine if you don't mov
The two changed into dry pajamas and embraced each other on the large bed.In front of them was a massive floor-to-ceiling window showcasing the serene mountain forest and the sparkling night sky.Yasmin gazed quietly outside and softly asked him, "Did you buy the villa for this night view?""Yes." He wrapped his long arms around her slender body, resting his chin on her head. "Do you like it?""It's beautiful."The black night sky was filled with brilliant stars, creating a very peaceful and romantic atmosphere.Blake kissed her forehead. "From now on, we can come here for a vacation every year."Yasmin didn't respond, and Blake, thinking she hadn't heard him, looked down at her.She had fallen asleep in his arms, probably exhausted from his earlier antics. She clung to him tightly, sleeping soundly.Blake gazed at her fair face for a while, smiling.They slept soundly until morning.When Yasmin woke up, she heard the gentle sound of rain outside. Blake was no longer in bed
Malcolm stopped the car smoothly. "We're here, Mr. and Mrs. Ford."The back of the car was quiet. They faced the recurring question of whether to return to Oak Garden.Yasmin lightly bit her lip, still unsure if she should go back. Returning might mean getting back together."Yaz." While she was deep in thought, Blake suddenly called her.Yasmin looked up. "Yes?""Shall we go home?" He extended his bony hand to her.Yasmin hesitated, but Blake had already taken her hand a bit dominantly. "Even if you don't agree, I'm taking you home."Yasmin felt a stir in her heart, her eyes clear. Letting him be a bit domineering spared her from overthinking.So, she got out of the car with him.Seeing her get out, Blake's eyes shone brightly.She was willing to go home with him. This meant she had fully accepted him.Blake was so happy he nearly floated. He even refused to sit in the wheelchair, insisting on walking inside.But Yasmin wouldn't allow it, supporting him as she said, "Don't
She was lost in thought when Blake embraced her. "Welcome home. Shall I take you upstairs to have a look?"Blake took her upstairs.The dressing room had also been changed and was filled with jewelry. Yasmin was dazzled by the sight.Blake said, "Didn't you say before that your dressing room was too small? It couldn't fit all your clothes, so I had it expanded by two times. It can now accommodate tens of thousands of garments.""This is too big!""It's great. In the future, when we have children, we can also store some of the baby's things here. There's no need to expand it further."Blake pointed to another door in the dressing room and said, "This is the nursery."When he was doing the renovations six months ago, he had already considered the nursery.But hearing about the nursery, Yasmin's mood sank. The loss of that child was something they could never bring up.Seeing the faint sadness on her face, Blake felt a pang in his heart. He walked over and embraced her again.Fi
Yasmin could see that Russell was a decent person, so she wasn't too angry.That day, the main issue was Nikki's relentless accusations, insisting that she had seduced Darion.But Yasmin hadn't suffered much, so she said, "It's nothing serious. Just tell her not to accuse people without reason in the future. If there's an issue, she should investigate properly before speaking.""Yes, it was all my daughter's fault…" Russell was still pressing Nikki's head down as he presented a gift box, saying, "Mrs. Ford, this is compensation for you. I hope you will accept it."Yasmin figured it was compensation for the expensive wines, so she asked Mary to accept it.After Mary accepted the gift, Russell took Nikki and left.But Darion didn't leave. Yasmin glanced at him. "Is there something else?""Can we talk for a bit?" Darion looked up at her.After learning she was Mrs. Ford that day, he had many questions but hadn't had the chance to ask them.Yasmin thought for a moment, then walked
Yasmin furrowed her brow and smiled. "What nonsense are you talking about? He was just asking about our relationship, and he didn't know before.""Then why didn't you tell him earlier that you're my woman?""Was I before?" Yasmin looked at him. "We hadn't reconciled back then."Hearing this, Blake's face darkened. He reached out and pulled her into his arms possessively.Yasmin exclaimed in surprise, her hands instinctively landing on his shoulders to keep from falling. "Why did you suddenly hug me without saying anything? You scared me."You're my woman now," he said, looking down at her seriously. "No more being ambiguous with other men."Yasmin sighed in exasperation. "When have I ever?""Even looking at them too much is not allowed," he ordered dominantly, holding her tighter.To appease him, Yasmin agreed, "Got it."Blake's stern expression softened a bit.Yasmin then asked, "Don't you have guests today? Why did you leave them to come out here?""We're going out for lun
"Because I found out her secret, she wants to kill me. But even if my life is threatened, I have to risk my life to tell you this secret."Mrs. Ford, I found out that Yasmin's father, Stuart Starr, killed James. That's why she wants to send me to prison and silence me forever."The contents in the envelope are evidence, Mrs. Ford. You'll understand after you see it."After reading the letter, Annalise's face could only be described as ashen.Lizzie grasped her trembling hand. "Aunt Anna, what's wrong?"She acted as if she knew nothing. She took the letter from Annalise's hand, looked at it briefly, and was shocked. "This…""What's the matter?" Marie, equally puzzled, looked at the letter too, and her expression changed drastically.She quickly called for Eddie. "Quick, plug the USB drive into the computer."Seeing that Annalise was already in a panic, Eddie had no choice but to follow Marie's instructions and insert the USB drive into the computer.Then, the computer played th
"Mrs. Ford, I've given you all the evidence. Haven't you seen it?" Elise said. "Blake also knows about this."Annalise was stunned."It was Blake who found out about this. Yasmin knows, too, but Blake has been so bewitched by that woman that he's lost his mind."When I first found out about this, I suggested they break up, but Blake turned around and told me to shut up. He forbid me from ever mentioning it again, or else I would face consequences…"I was really worried about Blake. After all, he saved my life and treated me very well, so I still took the risk and went to look for Stuart and Yasmin."I begged Stuart to take Yasmin away and not see Blake again, but unexpectedly, Stuart suddenly had a heart attack and fell from the building."Yasmin insisted that I killed her father and had Blake deal with me, so I was sent to prison by them…" Elise's eyes were desolate.Despite Annalise's attempt to stay calm, she couldn't help but tremble.Elise, looking pitiful, continued, "Mrs
