All Chapters of Giving in to Her Rebellious Streak: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Stuart sighed. "Blake's the only man in Stanton City who can protect you. I've made my fair share of enemies. They're only letting you off the hook because of Blake. I'm worried that you'll be in danger if you guys get divorced. Now that I'm stuck here, I can't protect you."Yasmin looked distressed. Stuart continued, "I know you're upset, Yaz, but Blake can protect you. If he doesn't ask for a divorce, you should stay in this marriage. "The people out there won't dare to lay a hand on you as long as you're Mrs. Ford. You can get divorced once I'm out of here. Then, I'll be able to protect you again."Yasmin was unwilling to do as he said, but she didn't want him to worry while still in prison. Stuart said, "I know what you're thinking, Yaz. You're probably depressed from being stuck in a loveless marriage, but life isn't just about being happy."Compared to happiness, being alive is more important. Now that I'm behind bars, I can't protect you out there. My only hope is that yo

Yasmin frowned. "I'm all grown up now. I don't like pink anymore.""You're only 22. You're not even fully developed yet," Blake said.Yasmin thought he was referring to her private parts. Her face turned red."Why's your face red?" He noticed this. When he realized her mind had gone elsewhere, his gaze darkened. "What are you thinking?"Yasmin's expression turned icy. "Nothing.""Well, I know where your mind's gone. Look at how red your face is." Blake laughed and looked down at her. "Are you upset because I didn't satisfy you this morning?"Yasmin couldn't help being reminded of what had happened that morning. If not for Giselle suddenly showing up, she probably would've fallen prey to his advances. Her face burned as she pushed him away. "No!""It's nothing to be ashamed of. Everyone has needs. You don't need to hide anything." Blake didn't get mad. He handed her the pink dress. "Go try it on."Yasmin looked stiff, but she didn't want to argue with him. She took the dress and

"Hold on." Blake wasn't done yet. His fingers kept brushing against Yasmin's skin, making her heart flutter.She couldn't help urging, "Hurry up.""Don't move," Blake commanded. How was he going to get the necklace on when she wouldn't stop moving?Yasmin had no choice but to remain still. Blake was irritated by the necklace and turned her around to face him so he could put it on. When she looked up, she was greeted by the sight of his handsome face.In his straight suit, he looked like a king who was ready to command his forces. He exuded nobility and grace. Yasmin didn't dare to meet his gaze, so she lowered her eyes.Blake noticed her nerves and glanced at her a few more times. She sat in his arms with a blush on her cheeks. She looked like a beautiful porcelain doll. His gaze was dark as he said, "Remember to follow my lead when we're in there."Yasmin's eyes were moist as she looked up at him. "You'll let Eunice off the hook if I do well, right?""Yeah."Yasmin smiled.Th

"Okay." Yasmin went to do as told.Everyone circled the dining table. Neil and his family watched as Yasmin set the table. They could tell that Annalise didn't like her. It was why she would tell Yasmin to do things that the maids were supposed to do. It led to the rest of the family disrespecting her.Yolanda Lowe, Neil's wife, smiled and said, "Yasmin's so obedient, Anna. She does everything you tell her to do."Annalise smiled faintly. "That's about her only strength. She's obedient and sensible.""Oh, that reminds me. Has there been any news of a pregnancy on Yasmin's end yet? She and Blake have already been married for two years, right?" Yolanda asked on purpose. She was delighted that her daughter-in-law had recently gotten pregnant.Her words struck Annalise's sore spot. Still, she smiled and said, "Oh, I couldn't and wouldn't stick my nose into these youngsters' business. Besides, Blake is so busy all the time."He's always flying here and there for work, unlike Zachary.

Yasmin was shocked by this. She lowered her head and greeted, "Grandpa.""What did you say to Roxy? Why did she blanch at your words?" Arthur asked.She hadn't expected him to overhear every word of their conversation downstairs. She said, "Nothing much. We just had a small argument."She thought he wanted to tell her off for daring to teach his precious granddaughter a lesson. To her surprise, Arthur nodded approvingly. "You did the right thing, Yasmin."Yasmin was stunned. She looked up at him. Arthur smiled and said, "Roxy's parents have spoiled her rotten, so she's always been obnoxious and precocious. It's good for her to have someone like you to take her down a notch or two. This way, she won't dare to step a toe out of line anymore."Yasmin's heart settled back in her chest at his words. She hadn't expected Arthur to be so understanding. It had been two years since she'd married Blake. Though Arthur had always been nice to her, he'd never spoken to her privately like this.
