Lahat ng Kabanata ng Giving in to Her Rebellious Streak: Kabanata 821 - Kabanata 830

At the nursing home, Stuart was placed in the ICU. This facility didn't have Westview Hospital Center's advanced equipment, so they could only maintain Stuart's vital signs as they were before.Hope had been within reach, but now they were back to square one.Yasmin quietly watched her father's face through the glass window, thinking about the tears he shed at the hospital.The feeling of deep discomfort made her feel like ants were gnawing her heart.Ivan stood beside her and asked, "Your dad and James Ford…"From Annalise's words earlier, Ivan had picked up on some things.Yasmin glanced at him and explained the situation without hiding anything. After all, Ivan had already heard part of it, and with his intelligence, he likely understood most of the situation.After listening, Ivan sighed. "I didn't expect such things to have happened between you all."Yasmin said nothing.Even though she felt her father wasn't the culprit, the evidence was there. If it went to court, she w

She didn't want to be the shameless woman Annalise described anymore.From the beginning, she knew this relationship couldn't last. It was simply reaching its end now, so she decided to accept it."I've told you, this matter is still under investigation. Even though Elise is dead, we might find something in Merania," Blake insisted.He remembered the dark-skinned Meranian police officer he met there. Finding that person might lead to some clues.Yasmin shook her head. "I know you're investigating, but I don't want to live in humiliation."Today, Anna…" She corrected herself. "Mrs. Ford didn't look well. She's probably worn out worrying about you. You should listen to her."Annalise had previously battled cancer. Although it hadn't recurred, she hadn't fully recovered. Without a stomach, emotional stress could easily cause problems again.Yasmin feared that if they stubbornly continued their relationship, it might worsen Annalise's condition. If something happened to her, Yasmin

It was nothing more than Yasmin lowering herself to seduce him before.If Lizzie could also humble herself, Blake would definitely accept her.Silently cheering herself on, Lizzie went to her room and took out a sexy nightgown. She took a bath, put on the nightgown, brushed her long hair, and even sprayed on some perfume.She looked and smelled charming and seductive.After that, she went back to the first floor.Eddie was already waiting for her, holding a bowl of soup. "Ms. Lizzie, this is prepared for you by Madam Annalise. Mr. Blake is working upstairs. You should go look for him."Lizzie glanced at the bowl of soup, "Eddie, this soup…"Eddie nodded and smiled, "Some herbs that can make a man's blood boil have been added."Annalise wanted to use this to make sure that things between Blake and Lizzie would go to the point of no return tonight.Lizzie's face turned even redder upon hearing this. She took the tray from Eddie and walked upstairs with small, delicate steps.Li

Ivan said, "You don't need to worry about that. I can arrange for medical personnel and a helicopter. You can leave with them. It shouldn't be a problem."Yasmin was silent for a moment. Then, she said, "Wouldn't seeking treatment overseas cost much money?"She had about a million in her account; she feared it wouldn't be enough if she hired a team of experts to save her father."Oh, you’re worried about that." Ivan smiled and said, "We can negotiate with them. Some teams are developing new drugs. It might be free if your father is willing to participate in a trial. You would only need to pay for hospitalization."Yasmin's eyes glistened. "Is that possible?"Ivan nodded.Yasmin thought momentarily and asked, "Is it risky to participate in a trial?""There is some risk, of course." Iven was blunt with her. "However, it might be worth participating in a trial with your father's current condition; there's a chance he could wake up."Yasmin didn't speak, seemingly hesitant.Ivan s

Yasmin felt exhausted hearing it.It didn't matter if they had the blessing from the Fords—he was determined to be with her.However, Yasmin was tired. Wearily, she said, "Blake."He looked down at her.Yasmin said, "It's over between us. Let go of me."She no longer wanted to have any part of this physically and emotionally draining relationship. She reached out to push him away, eager to leave.However, as soon as she was about to push him away, he pressed her down again. A possessive look lingered in her eyes as he asked, "Did you hear me? I said we're not breaking up."Yasmin's expression changed. She stiffened her stone as she noticed he was forcing his way through. "Blake, I told you—We can never happen."His eyes grew darker and colder at the sound of "never". It was as if he had lost his ability to think straight. He suddenly pulled off her nightgown and kissed his way down.Yasmin's face turned pale. "Let go of me!""I tried to coax you, yet you're not satisfied. I'
