All Chapters of Giving in to Her Rebellious Streak: Chapter 871 - Chapter 880

The next day eventually arrived. It was Yasmin's birthday today.Blake had to attend a morning meeting at the company. He would only be able to join her birthday party in the evening after wrapping up the project launch."Sorry, I have some company matters to deal with during the day today. I'll come to see you tonight." Blake apologized, feeling guilty."No worries." Yasmin flashed a kind smile. "You can just come over when you're done, it's not like you won't make it.""Mm." Blake looked down at her with deep eyes. "Once today's launch is over, I'll take you on a vacation tomorrow.""Okay," Yasmin replied gently. "Go to work now."He kissed her lips and walked out of the house. Yasmin saw him off until they reached the yard.She watched him as his Rolls-Royce Ghost disappeared from view, then she withdrew his gaze. She steadily walked inside the villa.As guilty as she felt, this was her only way to escape him. She went upstairs and took a nap to refresh herself. In the eve

One of the bodyguards picked the crystal up and handed it over to Ivan. "Mr. Burke, it seems to be an energy crystal.""An energy crystal?" Ivan accepted it, running his fingers over its contours. "Isn't this the energy crystal Yasmin gave you? Back then, Yasmin gave me one too."The chains restraining Blake rattled just then. His eyes were gleaming with a hint of menace as if he could snatch the energy crystal despite his bound limbs.Ivan noticed his agitation and smiled faintly. He tossed the energy crystal aside. "Destroy this thing for me."At his command, Blake struggled harder. "You, give it back to me."Ivan found amusement in his struggle. He crouched to look down at Blake. He smirked. "The always high and mighty Mr. Ford has now fallen. You don't deserve anything from Yasmin. If not for your interference, Yasmin and I would have been together long ago."Ivan deliberately provoked him."I don't believe you," Blake said."You don't believe me? Do you know whose fault

Ivan looked at Yasmin's face and asked Cedar Webster, the doctor, "How is she?""Ms. Starr's fever isn't subsiding. There seems to be inflammation in her body," Cedar replied.Ivan's face turned grimly pale. "Get a better doctor over here," he ordered.Cedar was escorted out by Dwight Barlow, the housekeeper. Then, Wendy entered to say, "Mr. Burke, you're still recovering from your gunshot wound. You should rest. I'll stay here with Ms. Starr."Ivan stared at Yasmin's face at that moment.There was a bullet in his arm, and Blake had been the one to put it there.After being shot, he quickly boarded a plane back to Merania. Stanton City was dominated by Blake's influence and was not suitable for a long stay."How are things at Stanton City?" Ivan asked.Wendy replied, "There's turmoil brewing in Windmere Group. Blake Ford is busy dealing with Mr. Neil, so he has no time to look for Ms. Starr."Perhaps it wasn't just turmoil but a complete loss of hope.That day, he deliberat

"Ivo, you've already helped me so much. I really feel bad about troubling you further," Yasmin said."It feels awkward when you speak to me like this." Ivan's tone was calm and steady. "I want to help you on my own accord, not because you're asking me to."Yasmin caught his gaze. She found his eyes oddly profound, and she dared not meet them.Since arriving in Merania, it seemed like Ivan had changed in some way. However, she couldn't quite put her finger on it.… Two days later, Ivan unexpectedly came into her room after knocking on the door. He said he wanted to take her somewhere."Where are we going?" Yasmin was sketching in her room at the time. She had already resumed her work and felt inexplicably relaxed.Ivan stood at the doorway. He looked at her intently as he said, "I'll tell you on the way.""Oh," Yasmin replied. She set aside her sketches and left the room with him.They eventually got into the car together.Wendy wasn't with them today. As such, Ivan sat himse

Yasmin was still lost in thought, but Imogen didn't mind. She simply observed Yasmin with loving eyes."Thank you so much, Ivan. If it weren't for you, I might never have met my granddaughter," Imogen expressed her gratitude to Ivan. She had prepared many valuable gifts for him in return.Ivan shook his head. "Mrs. Morrison Senior, you don't need to be so formal. My mother was very close to your daughter. It was only right for me to help Yasmin.""Oh? Did you have that kind of connection?" Imogen's interest was piqued.Ivan recounted the close relationship between Maeve and Mia. Though in truth, Mia and Maeve were friends but never exceptionally close.However, as he spun the stories, he began to believe them himself. Others started to believe the stories as well.Imogen listened quietly, and her face showed contentment. "I never imagined that after leaving Merania, Mia would have such extraordinary experiences. She made such close friends, found a life partner, and even had a ch
