Lahat ng Kabanata ng Giving in to Her Rebellious Streak: Kabanata 901 - Kabanata 910

Yasmin's head grew heavy after she heard what Isaac had to say. She suddenly felt like Ivan had spun a web to trap all of them. She took a deep breath and asked tiredly, "And what about Wendy? Who is she to Ivan?""A woman who loves Ivan and will do all his wicked deeds just to please him," Isaac explained. He paused before adding, "If you believe me at all, Yasmin, come to Rimmervale and meet me in person. "I'll need you to bring NAS Group's trade secrets with you, of course. Let's work together to bring down that sly two-faced fox."His proposition was met with a long silence. He prompted, "Don't you trust me?"She did not trust him at all, but she still didn't know why he chose her of all people to help him with his endeavors. She asked tentatively, "Why did you seek me out?""Because your family is rich, and I need money," Isaac said frankly. Without money, he did not stand a chance against Ivan in the international business scene. "Also, you're as much a victim of his lies a

Yasmin's eyes widened in shock. "Why?""Why? Haven't you heard about what happened four years ago?" Isaac countered, perplexed.Yasmin truly hadn't heard anything. She recalled Ivan telling her that Blake had solved the little hiccup that had occurred at Windmere Group and agreed to let her go. She hadn't asked about the events in Stanton City since.Isaac knew from Yasmin's silence that Ivan had spun her yet another lie. He said gravely, "Four years ago, Windmere Group experienced a crisis after you left. Ivan and Neil worked together to kick Blake out of the board of directors and took away his position as the acting CEO of the company."However, Blake had his own supporters in the company. With their endorsement, Neil could not kick him off the board so easily. But all this was well within Ivan's expectation. After all, his goal was never to rip Windmere Group out from under Blake but to sell off its shares and projects."At the time, Neil had used his position in the company t

The thought prompted Blake to tighten his grip on the gun once more, his gaze devoid of warmth. Once he killed Yasmin, she would stop haunting his dreams. He would stop recalling the things that happened four years ago, and he would not be tortured by those memories any longer.It was then that Yasmin saw the scar running along his neck. Isaac had told her that Blake was ambushed by the mercenary group while he was in his car. He sustained gunshot wounds and a cut to his neck.She wondered if the scar had come from that event. Tears spilled fiercely down her cheeks as she thought about how much danger he had been through.Blake saw her tears and chuckled humorlessly. "Scared?"Yasmin shook her head. "I heard you were nearly assassinated once. You were shot and you took a cut to the neck. Is that how you got that scar?"Blake's smile grew even more wicked when he heard this. "You said you were used as a pawn, but when I was nearly assassinated two years ago, you never once came b

Yasmin kissed his throat and brushed her lips across the scar on his neck, her slender hand feeling up the buttons of his shirt. As she undid them, her free hand slid down his firm chest.She felt the proof of his desire and chuckled. "See? You're turned on as well. Why don't you just admit that you want me?"She slipped her hand under his waistband. He stiffened and tried to hold her hand still, but she was as lithe as a snake. She evaded his touch and lowered her head.As Yasmin knelt next to him, she did her best to worship every part of him with her mouth. Blake tensed under her. She had never gotten on her knees and taken him with her mouth before. It was a strange sensation—to hate her yet be unable to push her away. He even felt excited, the thrill making his blood sing.They stayed on the couch, their silhouettes tangled.Yasmin grew tired after a while. Her jaw ached, and her tears were spilling freely down her cheeks. She couldn't do this anymore. Perhaps she just wasn

Yasmin batted her eyelashes at Blake, blinking her large, doe eyes as she played up her innocence.Blake snorted and asked derisively, "You think I'd believe you?" He had stopped trusting her a long time ago.Yasmin knew very well that he thought she was seducing him out of fear, but even so, she had to stand her ground. She hooked one slender leg around his thigh and purred, "You're welcome to kill me if you don't trust me."She even dared to look wounded by his stoicness.Blake's eyes roved over her body as his lips pressed into a tight line. "How many times will you pull the same cheap trick? You could at least pretend to have some dignity."He was talking about her honey trap."Do you really want to kill me?" Yasmin asked, her voice low and sweet. When he made no reply, she knew he was reluctant. She willed her heart to slow into a steady beat as she caressed his handsome face. "Or would you rather have some fun with me?"To show him what she meant, she rose on her tiptoes a
