Semua Bab Giving in to Her Rebellious Streak: Bab 951 - Bab 960

Windmere Group had eventually regained its former glory, and Keating Corporation had averted the risk of bankruptcy, becoming a leading company in its own right.It seemed Lizzie's gamble had paid off. If Marie had been in charge, Keating Corporation would certainly have gone bankrupt. Under Blake's leadership, however, it had been revived.Lizzie was later credited with both saving Blake and aiding the family business' resurgence. Consequently, Blake's relationship with the Keatings grew closer, and Adelle frequently hinted at a potential engagement between Blake and Lizzie.Blake neither agreed to nor dismissed the idea. When Lizzie mentioned celebrating his birthday, he didn't object, leading her to believe he was on board with the engagement. She speculated excitedly that the money he spent might have been on a diamond ring to propose to her. Feeling giddy at the thought, Lizzie decided not to call Blake and bother him at this time.However, there was an unexpected explosion

Blake stared deeply at Yasmin, his gaze probing. "Yasmin, you're not lying to me, right?"Yasmin paused, then lifted her head to meet his eyes. "Blake, I've told you so much. If you still don't believe me, there's nothing more I can do."She placed her hands on the table, and the room fell into a tense silence.This was when Blake noticed the pale purple diamond ring on her delicate finger, the one he had given her as a promise to marry. It sparkled brightly under the overhead light. He reached out and took her hand, looking into her eyes. "Yasmin, I want to trust you."Yasmin's heart skipped a beat at his words, and she nodded. Not knowing what else to say, she simply expressed her gratitude. "Thank you." Sensing the heavy atmosphere, she continued, "Don't be so sad. You're only going back for a few days. We can still speak over video calls every day. Just phone me whenever you have time, and I'll answer.""Okay." Blake nodded in agreement. He placed her hand against his chee

Blake remained silent as Annalise continued, "But I don't regret any of it. How else would you have known who truly cares for you if you didn't face hardships?"The fact is, your ex-wife isn't a good woman. Lizzie stayed by your side through thick and thin. When things were at the hardest, she knelt before my mother, pleading for her to entrust Keating Corporation to you."She resigned from her medical career to focus solely on the company. Blake, my time is running out, so I need to remind you that Lizzie is the one who truly suits you. You can't let her down after all this time."Even as she neared the end of her life, Annalise was still advocating for Lizzie. It seemed everyone was hell-bent on saying Lizzie was the right woman for Blake. However, Blake didn't share the sentiment. He didn't have any romantic feelings for Lizzie whatsoever.Blake didn't say a word throughout. He simply held Annalise's hand, encouraging her to rest well.Recognizing that she couldn't change his

After ending the call, Yasmin turned to look at Imogen.In truth, she had only pretended to send Imogen away earlier. Imogen had, in fact, stayed in the room. Upon hearing Yasmin say her goodbyes to Blake, she asked, "Was that really your ex-husband? Trist's father?"Yasmin looked at Imogen while holding her phone. She finally admitted, "Yes."Imogen was somewhat surprised. "So, you two have reconnected?""Yes." Yasmin nodded again.Imogen was pleased, as it meant Tristan would have a father. However, Yasmin's next words caused her heart to ache.Yasmin explained the deep-seated enmity between their families and everything that had happened over the years.Imogen was deeply saddened to learn of such a long-standing feud. She gently stroked Yasmin's head and asked, "Yasmin, what are you thinking?"Yasmin's expression became sorrowful. "Grandma, we have irreconcilable differences. We can no longer be together."Over the years, Yasmin's hired private investigator had uncovered no

Blake was reviewing some files when he heard the news. He looked up, his gaze deep and thoughtful. "Stuart passed away?"Malcolm nodded. "Yes, it happened yesterday morning. I heard Ms. Starr was so devastated that she fainted twice."Blake's heart sank, his focus on work dissipating all at once. He immediately picked up his phone and called Yasmin.It was afternoon in Stanton City and morning in Merania.Yasmin answered the call, her voice barely above a whisper. "Hello.""I heard about Dad's passing," Blake said, his voice on the hoarser side.Yasmin acknowledged the fact with a quiet hum. She didn't say much else.Blake found himself at a loss of words. Over the past few years of dealing with crises at Windmere Group and Yasmin's betrayal, he had distanced himself from anything related to Stuart.During those years, he had seriously considered moving on from her and starting new.But now, Stuart was gone, and the grudges of the previous generation seemed to fade away with h
