Giving in to Her Rebellious Streak

Chapter 41

Yasmin’s footsteps stopped. She heard Blake say, “You don’t need to worry about this.”

“I don’t need to worry? This is your marriage. You’re already 30 years old, Blake. With how my health is nowadays, who knows how many more years I can live? My only wish is to see you have children. When your position in the company is stable, and I’m gone from this world, you’d still have a child to keep you company.

Blake didn’t respond to Annalise’s words. He turned and walked into the room.

Annalise’s chest felt heavy. She turned around and spotted Yasmin. Her expression immediately turned glum. “How long have you been standing there?”

“I just came up,” Yasmin replied.

“Blake is so distant and never initiates anything. You should make the first move. Both of you are married now, so there’s no reason not to be more open with one another. Play coy with him. Men love it when women do that.”

Annalise urged Yasmin to seduce Blake. Annalise felt like if she tried enough and they used those herbs she prepared, Yasmin was bound to get pregnant soon.

Yasmin explained, “Blake goes outstation for such long periods every month. There’s barely a chance for me to make the first move.”

“Well, isn’t he home now?” Annalise shot her a look. “I told him not to go to his client meetings as much lately. You two better spend all your time together.”

Annalise then went to brew more herbs.

Yasmin wanted to vomit at the thought of those herbal brews.

But in retrospect, she no longer wanted Blake’s children. So it didn’t matter whether Annalise brewed them since Yasmin wouldn’t be drinking it.

Yasmin entered the bedroom. The sound of water in the bathroom told her that Blake was showering.

Yasmin had nothing to do, so she sat on the bed and switched on the television. She didn’t expect to see a broadcast of Ivan being interviewed.

Ivan was sitting on a couch wearing a dark suit. His voice was rich and sensual.

Ivan appeared on television so often and behaved with such elegance. He wouldn’t be a

scammer, right?

Yasmin suddenly wanted to work together with him again.

She wanted to succeed too much.

She wanted to tell everyone that she had the capability to live out her own life. She wanted to prove that she wasn’t some trophy wife who depended on Blake Ford.

While Yasmin was deep in thought, Blake walked out of the bathroom draped in a towel. He shut off the TV.

Yasmin looked over and saw Blake’s toned, muscular body. Her breath caught in her throat.

She quickly looked away. “Why did you switch the TV off? I was watching something.”

Blake eyed her, his expression glum. “Were you watching the TV, or were you watching Ivan?

“It just so happened he was on the news.” Yasmin didn’t dare look at his body as it was too much for her eyes.

She turned to look at the trees outside the window. But Blake saw this as Yasmin feeling guilty.

He sat and turned her face toward him, using a hand on her chin. “Do you find him attractive?”

“What does that have to do with you?”

“Don’t forget you only got hit yesterday because of him.”

“That’s only because of Roxy’s little tantrum. What does it have to do with Ivan?” Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

Blake’s grip on Yasmin’s chin tightened. He said solemnly, “You’re so protective of him. Trying to cheat on me,

hm?”

Yasmin winced from the pain. She remarked snarkily, “Funny. You can keep a mistress of your own, yet the moment I get to know someone, it means I’m cheating. Can you not have such high double standards, Blake Ford?”

Got to know someone?

Blake relaxed upon hearing this. “I’m just reminding you not to behave in such an undignified manner. You’re not fit to be with Ivan.”
