Giving in to Her Rebellious Streak

Chapter 78

“Blake will be getting a cast, and there’s no need for hospitalization. After half an hour of observation, he’s free to go home.”

After lo

Joel finished speaking, he scanned the corridor to look for Yasmin. When he saw her,

he waved at her.

Yasmin pointed to herself and asked, “Are you calling me?”

“Yes.”

Giselle glanced at Yasmin as the latter approached.

Joel continued, “Blake will require bed rest once he’s home. The recovery might take two to three weeks. I’ll make regular visits for follow–up examinations and to change bandages. I trust you to look after him well.”

“Okay,” Yasmin agreed. Since she was the reason for Blake’s leg fracture, she accepted the responsibility to care for him.

However, Giselle, who stood beside her, wasn’t thrilled. As Blake’s girlfriend, she questioned why Joel entrusted this duty to Yasmin.

With Erik by her side, Giselle entered the ward to check on Blake. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Leaning on the hospital bed, his left leg immobilized in a cast, he showcased his usual striking appearance, marked by thick hair and a sharp nose. Yet, his lowered gaze conveyed a frail and

chilly demeanor.

As soon as Erik entered, he apologized to Blake. “Blake, I’m sorry.”

“Why apologize?” said Blake, looking straight at him.

“It was my fault,” said Erik, with his head down, “If I hadn’t pushed Yasmin, she wouldn’t

Blake frowned. “It was you who pushed her?”

“Yes,” said Erik, feeling very guilty.

Giselle quickly explained, “Erik didn’t do it on purpose. He was just messing around with Yasmin at the time. He didn’t expect her to fall so easily and cause you harm. Erik knows his mistake already.”

She spoke gently, explaining on Erik’s behalf, but Blake merely glanced at Erik and sternly. stated, “The person you should apologize to isn’t me.

Erik understood right away what he meant. He was telling him to apologize to Yasmin

instead.

Outside the ward, after everyone had departed, Joel whispered, “Yasmin, when you Blake fell, did he also get injured in that area?”

That area? Like the crotch?

and

As soon as she heard this, she broke out in a cold sweat and nervously asked, “Is something wrong?”

“It’s a bit swollen on one side,” replied Joel, still whispering. “Did you hit it when

you fell?”

“Oh no,” she thought. She was wearing a helmet and snow goggles when she fell, and that impact must have been quite severe.

Worried, she asked, “Is everything okay?”

“I don’t know for sure at the moment, but you’ll need to apply some medicine to reduce the swelling and bruising when you get back,” Joel elaborated. “I’ll go get the medicine now. You head over to Blake’s ward, and I’ll see you there.”

“Okay,” Yasmin responded.

At first, she was not so concerned, but after hearing about this, she began worrying again. She prayed that nothing serious would happen. Otherwise, she would be in trouble. Blake would use this as an excuse to take revenge on her.

She turned to go to the ward. Just as she reached the door, she heard Giselle saying, “Blake, your leg is injured, and you need to rest for at least half a month. Why don’t I move to Oak Garden and look after you?”

“No need,” Blake calmly refused her. “You’re pregnant. You should be resting.”

“Then, I’ll look after you, Blake. It was my fault that you were hurt. I’ll move to Oak Garden,

Erik volunteered.

“No need,” Blake rejected him too.

Raising his eyes, he noticed Yasmin entering, and with a subdued tone,

There’s someone at home looking after me.”

His words were intended for her.
