Joel nodded.Yasmin felt a pang in her heart, and she gaped. "Is he inside?""Yes," Joel softly said.Yasmin hesitated, but she moved forward and walked inside.Malcolm was in disbelief. He wanted to enter, but Joel stopped him.He was puzzled as he turned to Joel. "Dr. Sawyer.""Stay here." Joel looked at Malcolm with a meaningful gaze. "Let Yasmin go in alone. You don't need to follow.""But… But isn't Mr. Ford…" Malcolm was on the verge of tearing up.Joel sighed. "I tricked her. But you're a grown man. Why are you so softhearted?"Malcolm was taken aback and swiftly wiped away his tears. "So you lied to Mrs. Ford?""Otherwise, why would she look so heartbroken?" Joel wanted to help Yasmin take a step forward and admit her true feelings.Yasmin hurriedly pushed open the operating room door.The smell of disinfectant reached her nose, making it difficult for her to breathe.She walked up and saw Blake lying on the bed. He looked pale under that white blanket.Yasmin g
After Joel and Malcolm left, Yasmin closed the door and returned to the side of Blake's bed. She stared blankly ahead of her, probably still shocked at what had happened.Blake lay on the bed and glanced at Yasmin.Her eyes were all red. As she sniffled, she had this gloomy air lingering around her."Did you cry because you thought I was dead?" Blake asked.Upon hearing Blake's words, Yasmin came back to her senses and muttered, "No.""Don't deny it. You teared up, but you still won't admit it." Blake fixed his intense gaze on her. He seemed to be in a good mood.Feeling annoyed, Yasmin looked at him. "Like I said, I wasn't."Blake asked, "Yasmin, would you feel sad if I had actually died just now?"Yasmin furrowed her brows. However, tears suddenly welled up in her eyes when she heard his words.She couldn't hold back her tears. She quickly wiped them away, but the tears kept coming back. Eventually, she snapped, "Why are you saying that?" Yasmin was frustrated, not because
Blake didn't expect Elise to be so wicked.He took a moment before nodding. He took a sip of his coffee and nonchalantly asked, "Is that enough for a death sentence?""Given how brutal the crime was, Elise likely couldn't escape the death penalty."Blake instructed, "We need the court to deliver the sentence promptly.""Got it." With that, Malcolm quickly left the room.After Malcolm left, Blake wheeled himself to the bed and lovingly looked at Yasmin. He gently tucked her in with a blanket.Yasmin suddenly opened her eyes.Blake was surprised. "Are you awake?""Yeah," Yasmin responded. She lay on the bed and asked, "Were you talking about Elise with Malcolm just now?"Blake nodded. "We've made progress in Merania. Elise is indeed a murderer, and we have both witness and evidence to support it.""Witness?""Yes. Jessika has woken up.""When did she wake up?" Yasmin was taken aback, especially when no one told her about it."She woke up two nights ago. I kept it from you
"Who's this?" Lizzie asked.Blake glanced at Yasmin. Yasmin, who was eating broccoli, faltered upon hearing Lizzie's words."She's my wife." Blake beamed.Lizzie's face turned white. "Your wife? Aren't you divorced six months ago, Blake?""We're almost back on good terms," Blake gently said.Only then did Annalise come back to her senses. She walked over and glanced at Yasmin, asking, "Are you two getting back together? Why wasn't I clued in on this, Blake?"Blake nonchalantly said, "I've planned to patch things up with Yasmin before bringing her home to meet you and Grandpa." "Is that so?" Annalise sported a conflicted expression and apologetically looked at Lizzie. Two days ago, she agreed with Adelle to match Blake with Lizzie.But in the end, Blake and Yasmin were about to reconcile.When Lizzie heard Blake's words, her expression darkened.Blake seemed to have read their minds. He looked at Annalise and said, "After being separated from Yasmin for so long, I've fina
In the ward, Yasmin tried to withdraw her hand from Blake's grasp. "Why did you say that just now?"Blake didn't let go of her and tightened his grip. With furrowed brows, he said, "Am I wrong? We're in the process of making up and considering remarriage."Yasmin took a deep breath and gazed at him. "Do you really think we can get back together?"Blake remained silent.With a bitter expression, Yasmin couldn't help but say, "Considering the history between our dads, can we really be together?"Can you honestly never hold it against me or hate me because of that? And when you think about your dad, could you not feel guilty?"When you're with Anna and Arthur, won't you feel bad?"Yasmin threw a series of questions. Those were the reasons why their relationship wouldn't work out.Blake looked at her, and she knew he couldn't answer.Things were too complicated between them to ever sort this matter out.Yasmin got up to leave, but Blake immediately grabbed her hand and pulled her
For a period, Blake was tormented by how much he missed Yasmin."You might not even realize how happy I was on the day you got out of prison. I was so excited and started preparing a month in advance so that I could appear as the best version of myself in front of you."With my heart brimming with joy, I went to the prison and saw you getting into Ivan's car."I was heartbroken at that moment, but I also learned that I couldn't accept you being with anyone else but myself. "Yasmin, I couldn't bring myself to let you go."With a sad expression, Blake fixed his gaze on Yasmin.A mix of emotions washed over her, and she quickly lowered her gaze."Can you please come back to my side?" Blake hugged Yasmin tightly, his eyes showing all sorts of emotions. "We don't have to talk about it. No one will ever know."The ordeal involving James had come to an end. Everyone who needed to face the consequences had already bitten the dust.Stuart ended up in a coma, and the grudges were all o
Yasmin went to refill warm water into the bottle outside the ward. She received a phone call from Sarah.Sarah asked, "Where are you, Ms. Starr? We have a big client at the office, and he specifically asked for you to design his clothes."Yasmin paused for a moment and replied, "I'll be back later.""Great." Sarah hung up the call.Yasmin took the bottle and walked back to the ward. When she arrived at the door, she heard Joel saying, "Your injury is healing pretty well, Blake. I don't see any signs of infection. If it hurts, ask the nurse to give you some painkillers.""Alright."Yasmin felt relieved upon hearing that. As she entered the room, Blake immediately looked over and smiled.When Joel saw Blake smiling, he seemed to have caught on to something. He instructed, "When you get home, someone will still need to change your bandages. I'll take at least two weeks for the wound to fully heal.""Yaz will take good care of me," Blake remarked as he fixed his gaze on Yasmin.
Feeling amused, Yasmin nonchalantly said, "Take it as a warning. Stop being a jerk from here on." "How am I a jerk? All I wanted was to take you up the mountain and watch the stars. That was just me trying to win you over.""You got to respect my decision when I said no to your invitation. That's how people normally pursue someone."Instead, you kidnapped me when I said no. That's a crime," Yasmin calmly commented.Even though Yasmin dropped the charges, she still believed that Darion was in the wrong. Plus, she had a few drinks that night. Things could've easily gone south.Darion was at a loss for words. He glanced at Yasmin and chuckled. "You've got quite the sharp tongue, don't you?""I'm merely stating the truth." After saying that, Yasmin immediately left.Darion's expression darkened. "Where are you going, Yasmin?""Knowing you, I doubt you're dropping by for a business meeting. Sorry. I'm too busy for idle chatter."Darion thought Yasmin was quite full of herself, b
