Semua Bab Giving in to Her Rebellious Streak: Bab 791 - Bab 800

Yasmin said, "If he didn’t like me, it wouldn't matter, no matter how hard I tried. But we have come this far. Even if we divorced, he would still want me, despite my dad scheming against him because he had liked me from the start."The expression on Lizzie's face grew uglier as she listened, and she couldn't help but say coldly, "You two can never be together."A glint flickered in Yasmin's eyes; a thought appeared in her mind. However, she kept quiet.Lizzie leaned closer and said softly, "I know your secret. If you have any dignity left, you should leave him. Otherwise...""What secret do you know?" Yasmin remained calm, probing her.However, Lizzie refused to say more. She wasn’t that foolish to leave a trail. She had spoken out of momentary displeasure earlier; now, she covered her mouth, unwilling to reveal anything further, "You want to know, don't you? I'm not telling you.""Spit it." Yasmin moved closer, grabbing one of her hands and forcing her to speak.Fear settled o

It had been such a busy year that Yasmin almost forgot about Eunice's birthday. Fortunately, Blake and Mortimer had arranged this surprise. She gave Eunice a bracelet she had bought for herself.Eunice looked at it. She liked it very much and hugged Yasmin tightly. "Yaz, you have no idea how boring it is being stuck at home during postpartum confinement.""You should be at the 30-day mark now, right?""Today is the 31st day, but Mortimer still won't let me out. He insists I have to stay in for 60 days," Eunice said. It felt like being in prison to her, and it was eating her up.Mortimer gently said, "Your body is still weak and needs more rest.""All I do is eat and sleep and sleep and eat. I can't even go out. I'm going crazy," she complained softly."We're here for you." A cheerful voice came from the door.Everyone turned to see Joel, tall and handsome in a camel-colored trench coat, with Michelle beside him. Her features were as delicate as the strokes of a painting."Even

"Is that gift tree hard to set up?" Blake suddenly asked Mortimer.Joel was taken aback, removing the cigarette from his lips. "Seriously, Blake? You want to do this childish thing, too?""It's quite nice," Mortimer replied, his eyes glinting with amusement. "I can prepare several gifts and hang them on the tree when it's her birthday."It's like opening mystery boxes. She's bound to find a few presents that she loves."Blake agreed, nodding.Next month was Yasmin's birthday, and Blake thought he should start preparing for it.He turned and asked Mortimer for details. The two started talking, leaving Joel standing beside them, biting a cigarette with a puzzled expression.Meanwhile, the women were eating fruit.Michelle said, "There's a saying that a woman's stomach has many compartments. One is for sweets, another for meals, and another for fruits. It's quite accurate.""Absolutely!" Eunice agreed, popping a cherry into her mouth. It was sweet and delicious. She was in an exc

Yasmin changed into her bathrobe, her slender feet stepping into a pair of cotton slippers as she walked to the door.Blake was waiting outside, already dressed in a bathrobe. When she appeared, he extended his hand toward her. "Come here."Yasmin walked over, took his hand, and glanced at his leg. "Your leg is injured. Can you go into the water?"Blake shook his head. "It's not suitable for me to go in the water. I'll just stay by your side."Yasmin was taken aback. "So, is this hot spring trip just for me to enjoy?""Last time, you couldn't go because of your period. This time… I don't want my leg to ruin the fun."Hearing this, Yasmin felt a gentle ripple in her heart.Sometimes, his words really made her heart flutter.They went to the backyard, where soft, warm light surrounded the area. The servants had already prepared chocolates and champagne on a table nearby.Blake maneuvered his wheelchair toward the table. Yasmin noticed and moved to help him, but Blake stopped her

The two changed into dry pajamas and embraced each other on the large bed.In front of them was a massive floor-to-ceiling window showcasing the serene mountain forest and the sparkling night sky.Yasmin gazed quietly outside and softly asked him, "Did you buy the villa for this night view?""Yes." He wrapped his long arms around her slender body, resting his chin on her head. "Do you like it?""It's beautiful."The black night sky was filled with brilliant stars, creating a very peaceful and romantic atmosphere.Blake kissed her forehead. "From now on, we can come here for a vacation every year."Yasmin didn't respond, and Blake, thinking she hadn't heard him, looked down at her.She had fallen asleep in his arms, probably exhausted from his earlier antics. She clung to him tightly, sleeping soundly.Blake gazed at her fair face for a while, smiling.They slept soundly until morning.When Yasmin woke up, she heard the gentle sound of rain outside. Blake was no longer in bed
