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
Her gaze was different from how she looked at Yasmin two days ago.Yasmin's heart skipped a beat, but she still called out, "Anna."Annalise remained expressionless, not responding, only saying in a deep voice, "I have a few questions to ask you.""Please go ahead." Yasmin listened attentively.Annalise asked, "Is your father currently in the ICU at the Westview Hospital Center?"Yasmin nodded. "Yes.""Is Blake paying for the medical expenses every month?"Yasmin glanced at Lizzie, who gave a barely perceptible smile.Inwardly, she was cursing at Yasmin. She was eager to see how Yasmin would suffer today after daring to hit her two days ago."Yes." This matter was well-known, so Yasmin didn't need to hide it. But why was Annalise suddenly asking about it?Upon receiving a definite answer, Annalise gave a mocking laugh.Stuart had killed James, yet her son was spending money to save him. What a cosmic joke!"Yasmin, what exactly did you do to make Blake so lenient toward his
Yasmin struggled to recall what Stuart had told her.There was something suspicious about this matter. Why were there sounds of a fight at that time?Could it be that someone else was fighting James? Was it possible that he was already dead before he fell from the building?Stuart was the last to arrive at the hotel and didn't see James at all. But all the people involved back then were dead, so it was impossible to know what really happened."Are you still trying to make excuses?" Annalise got even angrier when she heard Yasmin's excuses.She picked up the USB drive and threw it at Yasmin's face. "See for yourself who pushed James off the rooftop!"Yasmin had, of course, seen the contents of the USB drive. The person in the USB drive was indeed her father.She lowered her head and said, "It was my father, but I believe he didn't do it on purpose. There must be more to what happened back then.""The truth is, your father wanted money. A group of people pushed James off the buil
"Do you think you deserve it?" Annalise's eyes widened with anger.Yasmin didn't respond.She regretted it. If she had known about this deep-seated resentment back then, she never would have admitted she liked Blake.Maybe then, none of these things would have happened."Your father killed his father! What right do you have to like him?" Annalise's eyes turned red.Seeing Yasmin remain silent, she raised her hand to strike her."Mom!"From afar came Blake's voice.Malcolm was pushing him in. He sat in a wheelchair, but when he saw Yasmin on the ground, his face changed. He suddenly stood up from the wheelchair and walked over.Annalise's expression changed, and she called out, "Blake, didn't you injure your leg? How can you walk? Sit back down."Blake ignored her, walked to Yasmin, and stood in front of her, saying in a deep voice, "Don't blame her. She's always wanted to leave, but I didn't agree."Annalise's eyes were terrifyingly red. "You're confused. Her father killed y
"He's already a vegetable. Even if he's guilty, isn't that punishment enough?" Blake didn't agree to break up with Yasmin.Annalise furrowed her brows. "What does him being a vegetable have to do with us? It's because of his own poor health and is karma for his evil deeds!""It was Elise who did it," Blake said. "She deliberately timed her visit to the hospital to provoke him during his myocarditis flare-up, causing him to fall down the stairs.""Did Yasmin tell you that?" Annalise believed Yasmin was lying."No. Elise admitted it herself. She said she couldn't stand Yasmin and wanted to provoke her father to death and drive Yasmin mad."Annalise was taken aback.Blake continued, "Moreover, she didn't end up in prison because of us. She killed people, and not just one. She has committed many crimes. Her words aren't trustworthy.""But…" Annalise paused, "Elise did it for you. She was afraid Yasmin would hurt you, so she went to the hospital to find her father to make them leave
"I believe he didn't do it on purpose."This was something Blake never doubted, because, at the time, Stuart gave him something important.When Stuart was released from prison, Blake went to Newphoria Bay to see him. They talked in the study.At that time, Stuart, besides asking him to keep this matter a secret and promising to turn himself in, also gave Blake a USB drive. He said that James had given it to him back in Merania.The USB drive contained another almost-completed chip design. It was James' hard work.Three years ago, Stuart used this to coerce Blake into marrying Yasmin, asking him to take care of his daughter and promising to give him the USB drive upon his release.At that time, Blake didn't know what was on the USB drive. He just thought that if he could get more evidence, it would be a good thing, so he married Yasmin.Later, after Stuart handed over the USB drive, Blake was shocked when he saw its contents and asked why he hadn't given it to him earlier.Stuar
