Blake lifted his gaze when Malcolm continued, "He's dead, too."

Hearing this, Blake was shocked and suddenly kicked the glass coffee table in front of him, shattering it instantly.

Yasmin, startled, looked over to see his face illuminated by the light, emanating a cold and terrifying air.

She felt that he had gone mad and had become very scary. Instinctively, she hid behind the couch, afraid of being caught in the crossfire.

Blake ignored her, his face cold as he asked, "How did he die?"

Malcolm replied, "When we found him, he was dead in his apartment, said to be due to a drug overdose.

"Mr. Ford, I find this too suspicious. Everyone we investigate ends up dead. It feels like someone is manipulating things from behind the scenes…"

Blake's expression grew even darker. "Investigate it thoroughly!"

He wanted to know who was behind all this.

After ending the call, the villa fell into silence. The shattered glass from the coffee table lay scattered, and Blake stood in front of it,

    After a while, Blake came to knock on the door again. He said in a hushed voice, "Yasmin."Yasmin hadn't slept yet, but she didn't want to respond to him, so she stayed silent.Blake continued speaking at the door, "Yasmin, open the door, or else you can forget about seeing your father this month."Yasmin was stunned. She hadn't expected that he had become so ruthless that he would even use her father to threaten her just because she wouldn't open the door.With a cold face, she got out of bed and went to open the door.Blake stood at the door, his face gloomy and dark. "Who allowed you to sleep in the guest room? Go back to the master bedroom.""I don't want to sleep there," Yasmin replied.Blake said indifferently, "You don't want to coexist peacefully with me, is that it?"There was a warning in his words.Yasmin frowned slightly, but he had already grabbed her and pulled her to the master bedroom. "Go to bed and sleep."She refused to go.So, he picked her up completely

    "Blake, what exactly are you trying to do?" She couldn't hold it in anymore and frowned."Taking you downstairs for breakfast," Blake said, carrying her downstairs.The shattered glass coffee table on the first floor had already been cleaned up.The dining table was filled with her favorite nutritious breakfast."Did you make this?" Yasmin looked at him."Yes." He had gotten up early to make it. He placed the utensils in her hand and said, "Eat."Yasmin was slightly surprised.Blake continued, "Starting today, take a break for now. Don't go to work."Yasmin paused with the fork in her hand. "Are you imprisoning me?""No. You can still go out, go shopping, eat, and meet your friends, but Tyler will follow you everywhere you go."How was having someone follow her any different from imprisonment?Yasmin was so angry she let out a laugh. "Are you so afraid I'll run away?""Your father is in the country, so you won't run," Blake said with certainty.Yasmin's expression turned u

    Yasmin went upstairs, carrying her bag.The employees at Erinnyes were gathered around Eunice, who had brought her baby along. Everyone was praising the little one, "The baby is so chubby and cute…"When Yasmin walked in, everyone was stunned. "Ms. Starr, aren't you supposed to be in Merania?"Everyone had thought Yasmin had already left for Merania.Eunice was also surprised. "Yaz, why are you at the company?"Facing everyone's questions, Yasmin could only say, "There were some things that weren't settled yet, so I was delayed for a few days."No one doubted her, and they asked if she continue to come to work.Yasmin smiled and said, "Probably."Among everyone, only Eunice noticed that Yasmin's words were insincere.After everyone finished asking, Eunice carried the baby and took Yasmin upstairs to her office. They sat on the couch, and Yasmin played with the baby for a while.The baby looked at her with big, grape-like eyes, smiling happily. Even Yasmin was infected by his

    Eunice ended the call with a blissful smile and said to Yasmin, "Yaz, let's go."The two walked out together.Tyler and the others were waiting at the door. As soon as they saw her, they got out of the car. "Mrs. Ford, Mr. Ford said you have to be back at Oak Garden by 7:00 pm."Yasmin was frustrated. "I'm just having dinner with Eunice. You guys can follow from behind.""Sorry, Mrs. Ford." Tyler and the others only took orders from Blake.Yasmin, with a cold expression, had no choice but to call Blake.At that moment, Blake was on his way home. He was somewhat surprised to receive her call. "Why are you calling me? What's up?""I'm going out to dinner with Eunice tonight. Tell Tyler and the others to let me go and stop blocking me.""Why do you want to have dinner with her?" Blake asked.Yasmin explained, "Eunice just finished her postpartum recovery and can finally eat outside food. She invited me out for dinner tonight. It's a rare occasion, and I want to go."Hearing her

    The private investigator, Cole Massey, immediately said, "Mr. Ford, I wasn't photographing you.""Is that so?" Blake chuckled, his tone indifferent. "Give me his camera."Tyler snatched the camera and handed it to Blake, who opened it up and saw the photos. Obviously, the photos were of him and Yasmin.Blake sneered. "Were you really not photographing me?"Cole was so frightened that he was sweating. His voice trembled as he said, "Mr. Ford, I'm just trying to make a living. It was your mother who gave me some money to follow Ms. Starr…""Besides my mother, who else hired you?""N-No one else…""If you don't tell the truth, I'll break one of your legs."Hearing this, Cole was terrified and began to tremble. "Lizzie also paid me to inform your mother immediately if anything happened.""Just as I thought." Blake's expression was unreadable as he pocketed Cole's camera. "I'm taking your camera. Go back and tell my mother the full story and ask her to compensate you for the camera

    "What does he want you to tell me?" Annalise prompted.Cole glanced at Lizzie, then braced himself and said, "Ms. Lizzie also paid me to follow Ms. Starr. She wanted me to keep an eye on her and report any movements to you immediately…"Lizzie's expression changed, and she angrily retorted, "What nonsense are you spouting? When did I ever ask you to do that?""Ms. Lizzie, please don't make it hard for me. Mr. Ford said if I didn't tell Mrs. Ford the truth, he'd break one of my legs…" Cole kept his head down.Lizzie's expression turned extremely unpleasant.Annalise asked her, "Lizzie, did you also hire Mr. Massey to follow them?"Lizzie's face turned pale, and she explained softly, "Aunt Anna, you asked me to try pursuing Blake last time, but he pushed me away and went to Yasmin. I was just too upset, so I did this…"Annalise looked at Lizzie. She was exceptionally beautiful, and her eyes were starting to well up with tears.Annalise couldn't bear to blame her anymore and said,

    As such, Yasmin was stuck with Blake whether she liked it or not.Yasmin did not take a bath immediately after entering the bathroom. Instead, she spaced out while sitting on the toilet.Blake hovered outside the bathroom. When he did not hear the sound of running water after a while, he walked toward the bathroom and opened the door. He let out a sigh when he saw that Yasmin had fallen asleep on the toilet.He gently picked her drunken form up and took off her clothes, then set her down inside the bathtub. Having eased her into a sitting position, he grabbed the showerhead and proceeded to wash her.Yasmin woke up mid-shower. Her gaze fell on the man before her, then on her naked body. She sobered up immediately and quickly covered her chest with her hands.Blake smirked at this. "Don't bother. I've already seen everything."Yasmin's face darkened. "I didn't ask you to bathe me.""Who did you expect to bathe you in your sorry, drunken state?" he retorted, not that he would ha

    Yasmin stiffened at the sudden movement and turned to look at Blake in bewilderment. "What are you doing?""You're sleeping in my arms tonight," Blake said in a hushed tone.A humorless smile tugged at her lips. "Be reasonable, will you? I've already agreed to share your bed. What more do you want? Why must you cross the line and push my buttons?""I'm not the one doing the pushing here," he growled. "Even after you agreed to sleep in my bed, you pulled the covers over your head and sank so close to the edge you could've fallen over. Are you trying to tell me you find me repulsive through your actions?"Yasmin retorted sharply, "Are you going to argue that what you're doing to me is not repulsive and that you don't deserve my hatred?"She doubted anyone in their right mind would tolerate such brutish coercion. She couldn't understand why Blake couldn't respect her boundaries after she had made it clear that she didn't want to be with him.She even told him that they would never w

    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
