Blake shook his head. "No, but I've always felt there are many suspicious points about this matter."They hadn't talked about it before mainly because neither dared to bring it up."What are your thoughts? Can you tell me?" Yasmin sat up, eager to know what he thought.She had always wanted to know but was afraid Blake hated Stuart and didn't dare to bring it up in front of him.Blake looked at her and said, "Your father gave me something before. It made me realize that my father might have trusted him."He told her about the chip.Yasmin said, "My dad also mentioned that he was the last to arrive at the hotel that night. Before he went in, he heard sounds of a fight. When he entered, he didn't see James."He asked where James was, and his companions said he was in another room, drunk. Then, they offered my dad a drink."After drinking, my dad blacked out and couldn't remember anything. When he woke up, he had blood on him, and James had already fallen…"Blake had heard all of
Elise dared not to cause any more trouble and sat back in her seat, looking at him with hopeful eyes.Blake's expression was indifferent. "I have a few questions to ask you today.""Go ahead.""In Merania, how did you find the evidence linking Stuart to my father?" Blake asked, his gaze fixed on her.Elise shuddered. Her voice trembled as she said, "Didn't I already tell you? I asked a policeman in Merania to help me investigate, and we found the surveillance footage in the hotel…""Was it that simple?" Blake questioned.How did Elise find such evidence so easily when he had been investigating for so long with no results? Something seemed off.Elise sorrowfully said, "I have no reason to lie to you, Blakey. Even though I've done many bad things, I've never harmed you…"This was true. She hadn't harmed Blake.But she couldn't help expressing her resentment. "The only mistake I made was loving you. Because of that, you're making my life miserable now."Blakey, I don't understan
Six months ago, Elise had finished dealing with her enemies in Merania when she suddenly decided to investigate James' death.Unexpectedly, she found a lead.A police officer took her to the hotel where James died, and they uncovered a piece of surveillance footage.At that time, she was too happy to realize how suspiciously easy everything went. It was as if someone had been waiting for her to show up and find the footage.Now that she thought about it, the whole situation seemed eerie.But she had no choice but to kill Stuart.In fact, she had always known that it wasn't Stuart who killed James—it was her father, Gerard.Everyone was drunk that night. Gerard was the last to sneak in, going into a small room where another man waiting inside.Gerard had been cooperating with that man for a while.They had gotten James drunk and brought him there, intending for James to sign the contract. The man would help Gerard obtain what he wanted from James.As long as James died, everyo
At that time, his head was bleeding and hurt badly. He couldn't remember anything and was sent to the hospital, where he was diagnosed with a mild concussion.If he hadn't forgotten the events of that night, he probably wouldn't have made it back home alive.Before he died, Gerard had told Elise everything.That was why Elise had to kill Stuart. Otherwise, if one day Stuart remembered what happened that night, Elise would also have to die.So, she decided to strike first!Later, when Stuart became a vegetable, Elise was relieved. She knew that no one else would ever know this secret.But Blake fell in love with Yasmin. For her, he was willing to humble himself and even let her send Elise to prison.…Blake returned to Oak Garden late at night.Yasmin walked down the stairs, her eyes filled with anticipation. "Did Elise say anything when you saw her today?""No." Blake shook his head, taking off his coat. "I gave her a three-day deadline. I believe she'll talk."Yasmin was qu
Lizzie opened her eyes and noticed the worry on Annalise's face. An idea suddenly formed in her mind.After giving their offerings to the church, the group sat down in their seats as the church choir started singing hymns.Suddenly, the priest came over, glaring at Annalise with an intense gaze. He said in a deep voice, "Recently, a curse has been entangled with your son. You must be cautious."Annalise was startled. "Please, Father, guide me."The priest said no more, shaking his head and walking away.As they left the temple, Annalise was visibly distracted.Lizzie walked beside her, nervously saying, "Aunt Anna, could the priest be referring to Yasmin when he mentioned how a curse has been entangled with Blake?"Annalise shuddered and looked at her.Lizzie cautiously continued, "I'm just worried she might harm Blake…""She's right, Annalise. There's such enmity between your families. How can the two of them be together?" Marie chimed in.Annalise sighed despondently. "I to
"Ms. Starr, thank goodness you answered the phone. We can't reach Mr. Ford, and Mrs. Ford is causing a scene in the hospital."She's demanding we stop your father's medication. You should come over and take a look."Upon hearing this, Yasmin's expression changed. "Don't stop my dad's medication under any circumstances."Yasmin was afraid that if the hospital stopped giving Stuart his medication, he wouldn't be able to hold on.She was a bit flustered as she grabbed her bag and said to Ivan, "Ivo, I need to go to the hospital for something urgent. Let's talk next time."She hurried out.Ivan sensed something was wrong and followed her, saying, "I'll take you there."Yasmin, feeling anxious, agreed. In her current state, she indeed couldn't drive herself.Ivan drove her to the hospital.On the way, Yasmin kept calling Blake, but she couldn't get through. She didn't know where he was. Maybe he wasn't answering the phone due to a lack of signal.Biting her lip, Yasmin realized th
Yasmin lowered her head in silence. She didn't know what to say, but she knew that Annalise hated her to the core now.She clenched her fists and, holding back her bitterness, spoke, "Mrs. Ford, I'll contact another hospital right away. Please give me a little time.""Go contact them immediately and get your dad out of here today. I don't want to see anyone from your family ever again!" Annalise's fierce look made Yasmin uncomfortable.Yasmin took out her phone to contact the previous nursing home.Meanwhile, Lizzie comforted Annalise on the side. "Aunt Anna, don't get too angry. Your blood pressure has been unstable these past two days. You need to take care of yourself."Annalise yelled, "As long as that woman leaves, I'll live a long life! It's her shamelessness, clinging to my son, that made my health this way.""Alright, alright, she already agreed to take him away. Aunt Anna, please don't get angry anymore." Lizzie handed her some water.Annalise took a couple of sips, cau
Yasmin trembled. When she noticed movement in her father's isolation unit. Stuart's finger twitched, and tears streamed down from the corner of his eye.Even Stuart was saddened for her, wasn't he? Yes, Stuart had once told her not to be with Blake, to escape from here and never come back.But she didn't listen. Unable to control her own heart, Yasmin had allowed others to humiliate her again.Full of bitterness, Yasmin lowered her eyes and followed Stuart's bed out.At this moment, the elevator door opened, and Blake came out with a cold expression. The man she had been trying to contact all along had finally arrived, but he was too late.Seeing Stuart lying in the isolation pod, being pushed out by several medical staff, his expression darkened. "What happened?"He reached out to grab Yasmin's hand.Annalise and others were right behind her. They stood up when they saw this scene."Mr. Ford, please let go of me." Yasmin's voice was cold and devoid of any warmth."What on ear
