"Malcolm is there. He'll watch the shop and tell Jessica where you've gone," Blake replied.Yasmin was relieved. Finally at ease, she shopped around the market with Blake. After a while, she said, "This is Cirrus Town, my dad's hometown.""I know," came Blake's response.Yasmin looked at him in confusion. "How do you know?" She never told him that her family was from Cirrus Town."I checked your family background. Plus, you like to eat the food at Cirrus, so it wasn't difficult to figure out.""Then how did you find me?""Tyler has been in Cirrus Town for a few days," he told her truthfully.Tyler had been the one to lose track of Yasmin, so his punishment was to come to Cirrus Town to look for her.The day prior, someone from Miller Village had gone to town to look for Tyler with news that a beautiful foreigner had arrived in the village. Tyler recognized Yasmin the minute he was shown a picture of her.After that, Tyler immediately called Blake.Blake was in Stanton Cit

Stuart was a good husband, father, and employer—but he had betrayed Blake's father, James Ford.All Blake knew was that those seven people had betrayed his father, and James had died at Merania. No one knew exactly how his father died.Blake suddenly felt the urge to re-investigate this matter—but he wouldn't tell Yasmin about this. She was a simple and innocent girl, and he wanted to keep it that way."You can take a nap in my room after lunch. But first, let's eat. Lunch is ready." Yasmin pulled his hand and led him into the house for lunch.Jessica was busy placing the cutleries on the table. When she saw them enter, she smiled and said, "Blake, Ms. Starr, lunch is ready."Yasmin had bought a lot of groceries, so there was a great spread on the table.Blake sat down at the table and Yasmin took the seat by his side. Naturally, he began serving her the food.Jessica sneaked a peek at Blake. He was quiet and elegant while he ate and seemed to be a very self-controlled man. It a

Blake was a man of his word and immediately instructed Malcolm to install an electric pump and a water purifying system.Jessica wasn't comfortable with the sudden shower of generosity. "Blake, this is too much."Blake replied, "Tap water contains too much impurities and isn't safe for drinking without filtering."Overwhelmed by his kindness, Jessica quickly went into the house to get him some refreshments. "Blake, we don't have any tea, so I hope you don't mind this.""Water is fine." Blake took a sip before pretending to ask nonchalantly, "Jessica, what kind of person do you think my father-in-law is?"Father-in-law? Stuart Starr?Jessica answered truthfully, "Mr. Starr is a wonderful man. He always treated everyone politely, be it the housekeepers, family members, or even his subordinates. And he rarely lost his temper."In Jessica's memories, Stuart was a good man.Blake's expression turned solemn.Two years ago, when he told Stuart he knew the older man had betrayed his

"Just a guess. You haven't been to town once since arriving, so I figured you were hiding from someone. Well, he does look quite scary." That was Chris's impression of Blake. Yasmin had to suppress her laughter. For a 13-year-old, Chris was much more perceptive than she expected. Chris continued, "Yasmin, if he's mean to you, get rid of him and come live with us here. I'll protect you."Listening in from outside, Blake's expression darkened. The brat had quite the nerve to encourage his wife to leave him.He trudged into the room with a scowl. Upon catching sight of him, Chris immediately fell silent. Worried Blake might frighten Chris, Yasmin told Blake, "Get out. We're in the middle of a tutoring session.""I'll teach him. You can go take a shower." Blake walked over and sat in front of Chris, his presence overwhelming. Yasmin protested. "I've already started teaching him.""With your limited knowledge, you can only tutor him on language. Are you sure you can teach hi

Yasmin blushed. "Hurry up and dry your hair so you can go to bed.""On it." After drying his hair with a blow dryer, Blake climbed into bed. The four-foot bed was too narrow for two people, so as soon as Blake got in, there was hardly any space left.Yasmin, who was sleeping on the inside, shifted closer to the wall, afraid of lying too close to him. Noticing her squirming, Blake pulled her into his arms with a smile, pressing her against his chest. Yasmin jolted. "What are you doing?""You're too close to the wall, and it's dirty. Scooch over a little." He pulled her back against him.Yasmin felt uncomfortable being so close to him. To escape the awkwardness, she turned around to face him.However, that only made the situation worse.His gaze on her was intense as his finger brushed her lip suggestively. "What?" Yasmin met his stare.Blake smiled. "Why did you turn around? Did you want to watch me sleep?""Not at all," she denied. However, Blake ignored her words as he
