Giving in to Her Rebellious Streak Chapter 957
After ending the call, Yasmin turned to look at Imogen.In truth, she had only pretended to send Imogen away earlier. Imogen had, in fact, stayed in the room. Upon hearing Yasmin say her goodbyes to Blake, she asked, "Was that really your ex-husband? Trist's father?"Yasmin looked at Imogen while holding her phone. She finally admitted, "Yes."Imogen was somewhat surprised. "So, you two have reconnected?""Yes." Yasmin nodded again.Imogen was pleased, as it meant Tristan would have a father. However, Yasmin's next words caused her heart to ache.Yasmin explained the deep-seated enmity between their families and everything that had happened over the years.Imogen was deeply saddened to learn of such a long-standing feud. She gently stroked Yasmin's head and asked, "Yasmin, what are you thinking?"Yasmin's expression became sorrowful. "Grandma, we have irreconcilable differences. We can no longer be together."Over the years, Yasmin's hired private investigator had uncovered no

In a way, Stuart's death relieved Ivan greatly.Earlier that morning, Ivan had gone to the nursing home to confirm that Stuart's heart monitor had indeed flatlined before heading to the Sander residence to inform Yasmin.Still, Ivan felt uneasy because Stuart had died so suddenly. He was a little skeptical, so he closely observed Yasmin's expressions throughout the journey.Yasmin's face was pale to the extreme. Tears streamed down her face, and her body shook uncontrollably. It seemed too raw of a reaction for her to be pretending. Ivan thought that perhaps he was just overthinking things.When they arrived at the nursing home, Yasmin was supported into the ICU. She did not have the strength in her legs to walk on her own. Seeing that Stuart's heart monitor had flatlined, she broke down crying. "Dad!"Her voice trembled, evidently filled with panic, and her eyes were red.Seeing her collapse over Stuart's body, sobbing hysterically, Ivan's doubts began to fade.He approached an

Blake was reviewing some files when he heard the news. He looked up, his gaze deep and thoughtful. "Stuart passed away?"Malcolm nodded. "Yes, it happened yesterday morning. I heard Ms. Starr was so devastated that she fainted twice."Blake's heart sank, his focus on work dissipating all at once. He immediately picked up his phone and called Yasmin.It was afternoon in Stanton City and morning in Merania.Yasmin answered the call, her voice barely above a whisper. "Hello.""I heard about Dad's passing," Blake said, his voice on the hoarser side.Yasmin acknowledged the fact with a quiet hum. She didn't say much else.Blake found himself at a loss of words. Over the past few years of dealing with crises at Windmere Group and Yasmin's betrayal, he had distanced himself from anything related to Stuart.During those years, he had seriously considered moving on from her and starting new.But now, Stuart was gone, and the grudges of the previous generation seemed to fade away with h

Yasmin's heart raced in her chest as she grappled with what to do next.Ivan glanced out the window at that moment.Blake was standing across the road, presenting an imposing figure in his black suit. He had watched the funeral from a distance, yet he felt like an outsider who couldn't be further removed from the whole procession.Stuart had passed away, and the person who held a funeral in his memory was Ivan. He had stayed by Yasmin's side throughout the ordeal, holding her and comforting her. She hadn't pushed him away, either.Blake couldn't help the sour feeling coursing through him. Although Yasmin had assured him that she hated Ivan, her reliance on the latter said otherwise. Blake had no idea of knowing if she was lying to him.He shouldn't have come today. Things had been busy at Windmere Group lately, but he figured Yasmin would be lost in her grief following Stuart's passing. And so, he came, only to watch gravely on from afar.Ivan merely cut Blake an icy look. He wou

"But you got off easy with such a peaceful death. That won't do," Blake continued menacingly as he raised the gun in his hand and fired into the decomposition box.A loud bang echoed through the morgue.Hiding behind a column by the door, Wendy was gaping. Her eyes were wide with disbelief. She hadn't expected Blake to be so cruel as to come to the morgue and fire at Stuart's dead body.While Wendy was in a daze, Blake fished out his phone and dialed a number. "Malcolm, Ivan is on his way to the hospital. You only have a couple of guys with you, right? Sneak into the hospital and take care of the bastard for me."Upon hearing that Ivan was in danger, Wendy panicked. Horrified, she quickly called Ivan, but none of her calls went through. She grew anxious and decided to abandon her task at the morgue and head to the hospital right away.Blake smirked when he heard Wendy's footsteps fading away.The decomposition box before him was empty. His display had been an act to fool Wendy an

Ivan frowned as he asked gravely, "Are our bodyguards stationed here?""Yes," Wendy replied."Good." Ivan set his worries aside. The worst thing that could happen was a crossfire, though it wouldn't be the first time. He had slowly gotten used to such violent confrontations.Wendy added, "There's more, Mr. Burke. When we arrived at the morgue, we saw Blake opening the decomposition box and firing a bullet at Mr. Starr's corpse. From the looks of it, Blake hated him."Ivan froze before barking a short laugh. He shouldn't be surprised that Blake hated Stuart who pushed James to his death, nor would he allow Stuart a peaceful death.The information from Wendy reassured Ivan of Stuart's death. Even if Stuart had been faking his death, he was certainly dead now that Blake had shot him.Ivan walked over to Yasmin and said grimly, "Yasmin, I have news, and I need you to stay calm after hearing it, all right?""What is it?" Yasmin asked, her face pale as she stared at Ivan. She was worr

Ivan turned to give Wendy a sharp look. He asked in a low voice, "Do you want Yasmin to die?"His words echoed Wendy's true thoughts, to some extent. In truth, she didn't want him to be with Yasmin. With Blake targeting him these days, she didn't want him to strain himself by having to protect Yasmin while watching his own back.If it weren't for Sander International, Wendy wished Yasmin would die on the spot so that Ivan wouldn't have anyone using her as leverage against him."I suggest you keep those thoughts at bay, Wendy. Yasmin is my wife, and you are therefore answerable to her. I won't hesitate to punish you the next time I catch you with those conniving thoughts." Ivan shot Wendy a dark, warning look before he turned and walked away.Wendy stood in the corridor and nursed her bitterness. She had dedicated her life to Ivan, only for him to cherish some other woman.Gritting her teeth, she trudged down the corridor and stopped in front of the hospital room. She glowered at t

Isaac explained, "Andy just informed me that Blake discovered them while they were trying to get Stuart out of the morgue. He thought on his feet and told Blake it was your idea to drug Stuart into an asystolic state."He said you intended to fake Stuart's death so you could save him from Ivan. Andy also mentioned that you planned to put Stuart up in a nursing home for recovery."Yasmin knew Isaac was telling her all this so that her version of the story would align with what Andy Wuntch told Blake.Andy was the bodyguard with whom Blake had spoken at the morgue earlier. He had been working for Isaac for years and was a loyal confidante to him. She asked, "Does Blake know about your involvement in this?""No, Andy's smart enough to keep me out of it. Unfortunately, things wouldn't have gotten so complicated if I'd been able to go to Merania myself."Blake would never have discovered their covert operation if Isaac had been there to oversee things. But as things were, their missi

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
