“Regretting it already? Is your love that cheap? Has it faded into nothingness after just two years?”
ke mocked. He stared at Yasmin.
He had her pinned to the bed. Her pale face was devoid of emotion. “Yes, I’m regretting it. won’t
love you anymore.”
She wasn’t worthy of him, so she was giving up.
ke’s expression darkened. He growled, “Fine, then. Since you don’t love me anymore, that’s all
the more reason for me not to let you off the h o ok. I want you to stay by my side for the rest of your
life to atone for your sins. That’ll be the perfect way to torment the day you die.”.
you until
Yasmin was stunned. “Are we really unforgivable just because my father tricked you?”
“Yes. It’s the one thing I hate the most, so you have to stay by my side for the rest of your life. You
don’t have a choice in this.” With that, ke stormed out and mmed the door behind him.
Yasmin sat up, looking deste. She hadn’t expected ke to insist that she dedicate her life to
him as a form of reparation for Stuart’s trickery.
The following morning, Yasmin slowly stirred awake as the sunlight streamed in through the window.
It was a bright, sunny day, which was at odds with her mood.
Her stomach was hurting a little again. She had to eat something before taking her
medication.
She went downstairs for breakfast. Mary had made her something suitable for her constitution. “Eat
as much as you can, Mrs. Ford.” 1

“Okay.” Yasmin started eating. She had a cute appearance. Mary couldn’t help pitying her. She
rubbed Yasmin on the head.
Suddenly,ughter rang out. Yasmin turned to see ke and Giselle walking into the house. She
paused halfway through her meal as her expression darkened. He refused to get a divorce, yet he
still wanted to bring his mistress home. He was such a jerk!
“Mary, set another ce at the table.” ke walked into the dining room, looking like a perfect
gentleman in his ck suit.

Mary was only a housekeeper, so she didn’t dare to defy him. She did as told.
ke and Giselle sat down. The former acted like Yasmin was nonexistent and scooped some food
onto thetter’s te. “Have some of this. It’s good for you and the baby.”
Giselle was pleasantly surprised by this. She nced at Yasmin and said shyly, “Your wife’s
around.”
“She won’t mind.” ke looked unruffled.
Yasmin’s heart constricted. Indeed, she shouldn’t be bothered by these things. She was only here to
atone for her sins.
“I’m sorry about this, Mrs. Ford. ke and I have known each other for years. He’s always been this
way. He’s just habitually caring for me since I’m pregnant,” Giselle said demurely. She was the very
picture of a well-mannereddy.
Yasmin said inly, “Don’t call me Mrs. Ford.”
She hated that address now. She didn’t want to have anything to do with ke.
“Why?” Giselle gave ke a confused look. “Do you two have a bad rtionship?”
ke pursed his lips without saying anything. Giselle turned to Yasmin again, asking gently, “Is it
because you two don’t see each other often?”
“No.” Yasmin’s expression was icy. “This is nothing but a political marriage. There aren’t any
feelings involved.”
She red at ke. He returned it with an ice-cold gaze.
Giselle could tell things were genuinely bad between them. This put her at ease. She said gently,
“Could you pass me the sd bowl, Yasmin? ke doesn’t like taking his vegetables, so I want to
get him some to make him eat healthy.” 1
Yasmin said, “Isn’t there a turntable? Just turn it to get whatever you want.
“Oh, right.” Giselle looked like she’d just noticed it. “Sorry, I’ve been abroad for so long that I’m not
used to how things are back here.”
“Aren’t there turntables abroad?”
Giselle paused. Then, she continued, “No, it’s just that I’ve always eaten alone. I’ve never had any
need for tables like this. It was quite lonely, really.”Property ? of N?velDrama.Org.
