Giving in to Her Rebellious Streak

Chapter 46

Yasmin glanced at Blake. His side profile was really attractive. She suddenly felt that being supported like this wouldn’t be a bad thing at all.

Despite feeling that way, Yasmin was aware that she couldn’t allow herself to sink too

deeply. Giselle was pregnant, so Yasmin needed to keep herself in line.

“What are you daydreaming about?” Blake said gently.

Yasmin returned to her senses and looked at him in a daze. “Huh? What?”

“My phone is on the couch. Get it for me,” Blake said.

“Okay.” Yasmin obediently went over to pick up the phone. She then saw a bunch of missed calls from Giselle. The light in her eyes dimmed instantly.

Just then, the door opened. Giselle walked in with a purse.

Yasmin just so happened to pass by the door and bumped into her.

Giselle smiled lightly as if she’d forgotten about the awkward situation from this morning. She nodded at Yasmin. “You’re here too, Yasmin?”

Bitterness welled in Yasmin’s heart.

Giselle held her hand and said delicately, “I’m sorry, Yasmin. I behaved out of line this morning. In retrospect, you did nothing wrong. You’re still married to each other. I’m

pregnant, so Blake can’t do anything with me. You’ll have to bear with it and help him out for the time being, I’m afraid.”

Yasmin looked at Giselle peculiarly.

Giselle smiled. “You think I’m too forgiving, don’t you? It’s pretty normal, honestly.

Someone as capable as Blake has a lot of female admirers. If I were to be jealous of every

single one of them, I’d get high blood pressure. So, I’ve learned to let go. As long as Blake’s just fooling around, I don’t mind. All that matters is that he loves me.”

Yasmin felt incredulous.

But maybe this was the kind of women men liked the most. Giselle was able to be

considerate and kind while ignoring what Blake was doing out on the side.

Yasmin couldn’t. That was why she would keep her heart in check and not fall in love with someone she shouldn’t be loving.

She responded, “Ms. O’Shea is so forgiving.”

“It’s no big deal. I don’t mind if you want to stay with Blake for the first three months of my pregnancy. Men will be men. They need their release.” Giselle was hinting that Yasmin was nothing more than a tool for Blake’s release.

Yasmin was left speechless. She didn’t even know how to retaliate against Giselle’s words.

Giselle was always cheerful and smiling. It was as if she had no temper at all.

Yasmin’s attempts at striking back at her were like hitting air–meaningless.

She suddenly felt exhausted.

“Is this Blake’s phone, Yasmin? I’ll help you give it to him.” Giselle saw the black phone in Yasmin’s hand and took it away. She then walked toward Blake.

“Your phone, Blake,” Yasmin said coquettishly, handing it to him.

Blake frowned when he saw her. “What are you doing here?”

“Erik told me to come over. He said you guys were hanging out. You weren’t answering my calls earlier. Turns out you guys were secretly playing behind my back” Giselle sat down beside Blake, where Yasmin had sat earlier.

The men all knew Giselle, so they quickly struck up a conversation with her. The atmosphere changed after her arrival. The chatter in the room grew much more relaxed, given she was a

familiar face.

Yasmin felt upset. She went up to Blake without looking into his eyes and said, “I’m going to go back first, Blake.”

Yasmin then walked out the door.

Blake’s brows furrowed. He immediately went after Yasmin.

“Blake!” Giselle called out from behind him.
