"Got it," Blake replied.Then, when Blake was about to hang up, Yasmin suddenly called out, "Blake.""What's wrong?" Blake asked."Do you love me?" Yasmin didn't know what had gotten into her when she asked him this question. She likely didn't want to believe the words in the text messages since Blake had been treating her better lately.If Blake replied that he loved her, she would openly talk about everything with him.However, she was met with Blake's long silence.Yasmin waited for five minutes, but Blake still didn't respond. In the end, he simply uttered when Malcolm came in to urge him, "I need to look into something else.""Okay." Yasmin ended the call.At that moment, she felt like her heart had shattered.She started to doubt if the text messages were telling the truth. Was Blake's kindness merely an act?However, the heart couldn't tell any lies. Blake wouldn't be able to say those words if he truly didn't love her.Yasmin was disheartened, but it helped her m

"You're her best friend. I'm sure you know." Blake inched closer to Eunice with a cold gaze. Blake's haunting presence frightened her, and she started to grow nervous.She retreated a few steps before saying, "I really don't know. Yaz only told me to collect the items for her. She didn't tell me where she was going!""Are you going to tell me or not?" Blake's bloodshot eyes were horrifying.Eunice was scared out of her wits, but she quickly recomposed herself and retorted, "You should deal with your mom first. She's against Yaz being with you. If you care about Yaz, sort things out with your mom and Giselle first, maybe then she might come back. "After all, she grew up in Stanton City. This place holds a special meaning to her. No one would want to leave their hometown while parting with their friends and family."Blake caught on to the hint he was looking for—hometown.He recollected himself and looked over at Malcolm. "Check the town where Yasmin was last seen in. I want to

The previous nanny of the Starr family, Jessica Miller, stayed at Miller Village.She was 68 years old. After retiring a few years ago, she returned to her hometown and opened a convenience store.It helped her make some money while looking after her grandchild, Chris Miller, who was still in middle school.Yasmin's visit was a pleasant surprise. Jessica asked about how she was doing and even inquired about Stuart's situation.Yasmin muttered, "Jessica, my family isn't doing well. My dad is in prison as we speak…"Jessica was shocked after learning the news. "What happened? Stuart is a kind man. He not only pampers his wife and daughter, but he is also friendly with the housekeepers. He never treated us harshly.""Someone set him up." Caleb had doubled-crossed Stuart. He sold Stuart a batch of cement that didn't meet industry standards.Later, Blake reported Starr Corporation, and Stuart ended up in prison. Since then, Starr Corporation has been in bad shape. In other words,

"Let's head to the hospital in town," Blake ordered."I'm not going!" Yasmin held the car door tightly. She refused to go with him.However, he wouldn't let her run away again. He locked her in his arms, and she couldn't move at all."Blake!" Yasmin shouted while sobbing. "Let go of me!""Cut it out!" His expression turned ugly. He held her tightly and warned, "If you keep doing that, don't blame me for not playing nice.""Let me go!" She kept struggling.Blake was furious. He pinned her on the seat and spanked her. "Stop making a fuss!"It took him quite a while to locate her. When he finally found her, she was still retaliating.He lost all his composure and smacked her hard.Having her hands restrained, she couldn't break free. As she was hit repeatedly, the pain brought tears to her eyes.Upon seeing her tears, Blake stopped smacking her. He instructed Tyler, "To the hospital."Malcolm stayed behind to deal with Daniel; bad things probably awaited the injured man. Howe

Yasmin was surprised. "You… You're going to spare my dad?""Yeah." Blake stared at her, and he noticed her eyes swollen from crying.He gently wiped away her tears and said, "I sent my men to check on Stuart a while back. He was afflicted with a contagious lung infection. "At the time, you had gotten into a car accident that lowered your immune system. I was afraid that he might pass the disease to you, so I held off on arranging a visit. I didn't expect you to run away." Yasmin had tears in the corner of her eyes. Upon hearing his words, she sniffled and asked, "Really? Did you send someone to check on him?""Yes. I checked on him, but his condition is severe. That's why he's currently being isolated in the quarantine area. "After he recovers, I'll get Celeb to write the statement proving Stuart was framed when he purchased the cement. I'll clear his name and return Starr Corporation back to him. Will that be enough?"Yasmin thought about it before questioning, "Are you real
