Giving in to Her Rebellious Streak

Chapter 126

Yasmin was terrified as tears welled up in her eyes.

She retreated in faint footsteps as Blake approached her, her racing heartbeat pounding in the silent midnight.

She was too scared to meet Blake's eyes, so she quickly retreated to the dressing room.

However, Blake yanked her over to the sofa beside him instead.

Fortunately, the sofa was soft, and Yasmin wasn't hurt from the fall. But she was still a tad bit annoyed.

She sat up and scolded, "Blake, what are you doing?"

However, she was met with Blake's darkened expression.

"I stood up for you, yet you sided with him," Blake said.

Yasmin was afraid of Blake's gaze and had a hunch that he would get violent. So, she scrambled over the sofa to run away. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

But in the end, Blake caught her and pulled her back to his side, directing a dangerous stare at Yasmin.

Tears filled Yasmin's eyes as she shouted, "You're a madman!"

"Madman?" Blake grabbed her chin. Then, he fixed his gloomy eyes on Yasmin and said, "I stepped in to deal with Roxy when she attempted to frame you tonight. I even brought you back to tend to your wounds.

"Yet, I don't get to hear any words of gratitude from you. And instead, you're on Erik's side.

"Are you even aware of what he said to me? Why do you defend him so much?"

Blake's tight grip on Yasmin's chin made her cry even harder.

"I didn't side with Erik. I was worried that your anger would get the better of you, and you'd beat him to death."

Blake was surprised to hear this, and the anger fuming in his eyes dissipated a little. "Why did you close the door then?"

"If only you could see your own expression when you came up the stairs. Who wouldn't be terrified?" Yasmin retorted with an aggrieved expression.

She had no intention to protect Erik at all. Rather, Blake's kindness had reached her that night, so she was worried that he would beat someone to death.

Blake shot Yasmin a belligerent look. "Why didn't you explain yourself?"

"Would you have listened to my explanation?" Tears overflowed from Yasmin's eyes, and her nose had turned red, making her appear as if she had been terribly wronged.

Blake frowned upon seeing Yasmin's tears, and his anger faded.

He had lost control of his emotions just now, and the self-control he took pride in had snapped when he thought Yasmin sided with Erik.

Blake withdrew his hand and glanced at Yasmin, feeling as though he resembled the devil in her eyes.

Suddenly, the phone next to Blake started ringing.

Blake frowned—it was Erik.

"Blake! Don't lay your hands on her. She's innocent.

"I've called the police. Don't you dare put your hands on her…" Erik snarled on the phone.

Blake took a glance at his phone and sneered. "How could I lay my hands on her?"

"Then what did you do to her?" Erik didn't trust Blake and continued questioning.

Blake furrowed his brow.

Erik's concern for Yasmin deeply annoyed him.

So, he sneered. "Isn't it obvious? I'm going to pamper her on the bed."

With that, Blake pulled Yasmin's head closer to himself and kissed her.

Yasmin's soft moan escaped her throat and reached Erik's year through the phone.

Erik shuddered in response.

But by then, Blake had already thrown away his phone and was holding Yasmin in his embrace.

Meanwhile, the phone's display showed that the call was still ongoing.

Blake intentionally did this to show Erik just what kind of relationship he shared with Yasmin.

Then, he locked Yasmin onto his lap while his hands reached underneath her skirt.

At this, Yasmin was panic-stricken, and her eyes were wide open.

However, Blake was holding her hostage, and she was unable to flee as she sat on his lap.

Blake then forced a passionate kiss on Yasmin, and the intimate noise came through the phone and into Erik's ear.

Erik's grip on the phone tightened as he angrily shouted, "Blake! Stop bullying her."

"Why do you think that I'm bullying her? Perhaps she's consented to this," Blake replied nonchalantly.

Then, he held Yasmin by her waist and commanded her, "Tell him. Did I go against your will?"

Yasmin blushed and remained silent.
