Giving in to Her Rebellious Streak

Chapter 151

Blake immediately stopped what he was doing and asked, "How's my mom's checkup going?”

Joel replied, "Mrs. Ford just got admitted, and the tests are scheduled for tomorrow. But Giselle's been keeping her happy. She’s been asking her to come up with names for the baby every day.

"I see her smiling all the time. In fact, she seems very happy.”

Upon hearing this, Blake decided he didn't have any more questions for Joel. He was just glad that Annalise was in a good mood. At least then, it would keep her from getting anxious before the tests.

Then, Joel continued, "Giselle’s great with people and has a way with your mom. But is the child in her belly really yours? If it's not. your mom might not be able to take it once the child's born."

“Just let Giselle be.” Blake refused to reveal anything. After all, the critical period of Annalise’s tests was approaching, and he didn't want to upset her.

Joel realized that his questioning wasn't leading him anywhere. So, he furrowed his brow and commented, "You're so tight-lipped, Blake. After so many questions, you still refuse to tell me anything."

Blake nonchalantly glanced at him. "You should head back if there's nothing else. I'm busy.”

Joel nagged, "Come one, Blake. I heard you had an argument with Yasmin

"What happened? Spill it to me. I'm a love expert, and I might have the best pointers for you."

Blake stared at Joel for a couple of seconds. Then, he said in a deep voice, “She's insisting on the divorce." "Is there a reason for it?” Joel questioned.

"How would I know? She probably has feelings for that pretty boy, Ivan." Blake grunted with a cold expression

Joel chuckled. "Clearly, you're not as skillful in wooing girls as he is. Oh, and you also have a tough attitude in your approach—girls don't like that. Nowadays, they're into gentle and thoughtful guys.”© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Although Blake didn't respond to Joel, he was going through his documents slower than before.

Joel knew Blake was listening, so he said with a smile, "You need to make it romantic. For example, you could pick her up from work and then bring her to a movie.

"Let her see your dedication. Everything will naturally fall into place once the mood and feeling is right...” Blake frowned. "Are you sure that's going to work?"

"Why wouldn't it? It's always like this when it comes to flirting with women.

"Have you brought her to a movie before? What about a candlelit dinner?” Joel asked.

"No," Blake honestly answered.

After all, Yasmin was the one who pursued him back then, and he hadn't cared much for her.

Joel was speechless.

But beforeteaving, he told Blake, " bought you these movie tickets sn booked-a restaurant for you. So; ~ don't forget to pick Yasmin up> tonight and take her out for & rommantic evening.” Content. belongs to“ <

Blake ignored Joel.

But when it was 5:30 pm, Blake had Malcolm cancel all his appointments and got off work early.

Brittany was at Erinnyes Studio. But this time, she wasn't with Magnolia and had come with her friends instead.

They prepared a sign that read. “The Ungrateful Niece Pushes Her Uncle's Family To Hell" and sat at the entrance of Erinnyes Studio.

It was a deliberate act done to catch the passersby's attention and have them gather there.

After hearing the news, Yasmin immediately went downstairs.

A crowd had gathered in front of the office’s entrance, and everyone was asking what was going on.

Once Brittany spotted Yasmin, she shouted, "Yasmin, if you have any conscience left, hurry up and get Mr. Ford to give my dad his job back.

"He now has depression and has become suicidal. Your actions could kill him at any moment.”

Yasmin laughed. "Are you sure Victor didn’t become suicidal 2> becaug@of his debt? How is he still in themood to gamble if he's ~ depressed? He's racking up: thillions of-dollars in debt with eachtloss."

“You scum!" Brittany's face paled. "Don’t you slander my dad!"
