Semua Bab Giving in to Her Rebellious Streak: Bab 941 - Bab 950

Yasmin was stunned for a moment. She was unable to react coherently and only blabbered, "Huh?" She wondered if Blake could have guessed what she was thinking.Blake questioned again, "Are you tricking me into confronting Ivan while you make your escape with your grandmother?"Yasmin froze for a moment before replying, "How could I? Darling, you've been so good to me. I will repay you for all you've done. I'll do whatever you want me to, okay?"Yasmin was afraid he would see through her if they made eye contact for too long. So she moved to sit on his lap, wrapping her arms around his neck, and resting her head on his shoulder. This way, he couldn't see the deceit in her eyes. "Darling, I'm sorry for what happened four years ago. Let's stay together from now on, okay?"She hugged him, and he smiled in response. Though he had some doubts, he didn't want to hurt her feelings. He wrapped his arm around her waist and asked, "You're really not lying to me?""No, I'm being sincere.

Blake waited for a while, but he never got a response from Yasmin. He turned on his side to look at her, but she had already fallen asleep.Blake wasn't easily discouraged, so he shook her arm gently, trying to rouse her awake.Yasmin lay with her back to him. Her breathing was soft and shallow as she slept.Blake felt somewhat helpless. He tightened his embrace around her and held her close as he drifted off to sleep.…The next morning, Yasmin woke up close to noon.She found herself snugly in Blake's arms, her body pressing tightly against his.He had again become aroused by their proximity. Instinctively, he wrapped his arms around her slender waist and pulled her closer.Yasmin was startled, reaching out to pull his arm away. She tried to break free but ended up pressed even closer to him.Blake's breathing grew heavier. He opened his dark eyes and began to demand more.Yasmin was terrified when he was being like this. She pushed against his chest and questioned, "How ca

It had been a while since Yasmin saw Tristan, and she found herself missing him deeply. As she was lost in her thoughts, she didn't notice the large wooden crates being pushed in her direction.Just as she was about to collide with the staff members, a strong arm wrapped around her waist and yanked her out of the way.Yasmin blinked in surprise as the crates were pushed past her. She found herself in Blake's arms, his deep voice cutting through the moment. "What were you daydreaming about?"Yasmin couldn't admit she was thinking about her son. She glanced upward at Blake, noticing his tightly furrowed brows—proving he was still quite displeased."I just got a bit distracted," she fibbed."Pay attention when you're walking. Those crates are full of valuable collections. If you'd knocked them over, it would've been a real hassle."Indeed, it would have been troublesome to deal with. Even though she had plenty of money now, some collectible items were irreplaceable. They were cheris

Yasmin replied, "Everything's alright, Trist.""If there's nothing wrong, then I want to come back now," Tristan suddenly declared.Yasmin was startled by this. She wiped her tears and said, "Trist, you absolutely cannot come back right now.""Why not?" Tristan asked.Yasmin couldn't find a reason to offer him and fell silent.Tristan then asked, "Did something happen in Merania? Mom, what are you hiding from me?"Yasmin was taken aback by how perceptive Tristan was. He could discern her emotions from just a few words.As Yasmin pondered how to explain herself, Pearl took the phone and said, "Yasmin, maybe you should just tell Trist." She was exhausted from keeping secrets. Pearl had been coming up with excuses for days, but Tristan kept probing, and Pearl was running out of answers.Yasmin was silent for a moment. She then nodded to herself and signaled Pearl to explain the situation to Tristan.Pearl was able to share everything that had been happening recently with Trista

Yasmin could still vividly recall the look of disgust on Annalise's face. Her gaze was sharp and cutting as if she wanted to slice Yasmin's flesh piece by piece.Even though Yasmin had Imogen and Tristan on her side now, she couldn't forget past grievances.Annalise would never accept her, no matter how wealthy or successful Yasmin became. The grudges of the previous generation were a deadlock that couldn't be resolved.When Blake heard her ask about Annalise, he said in a steady voice, "My mom is not doing well."A few years ago, she had been diagnosed with stomach cancer. After surgery, she lived for another four years, but now her health had completely deteriorated. She was currently in a nursing home, spending money to prolong her life. She couldn't even leave the care center as she might not have much time left.Hearing those words, Yasmin looked up and asked, "Madam Annalise is not well?""Yes, she fell seriously ill a few years ago. Joel said that the extra years she liv
