Chapter 101
Yasmin's eyes shot open abruptly.
Alarmed, she stretched her arm out and grabbed a can opener that lay on the nearby table. Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
Her eyes blazing with coldness, she stabbed Caleb's stomach with the can opener in her hand.
Caleb yelled and curled up on his side, cradling his stomach.
Once the makeshift weapon had accomplished its purpose, she tossed the can opener aside and immediately ran outside.
"Don't run!" Caleb yelled after her.
"Get that bitch!" He ordered his bodyguards.
A few bodyguards chased after her.
Yasmin's limbs felt like jelly. She had been drugged and felt exhausted.
She tried to run back to Eunice's room. But the guards caught her in the corridor just as she reached the stairs.
Caleb walked toward her, huffing and puffing. With a smirk, he pressed her head against the wall.
"Great, since you like livestreaming in public so much, let me make it happen." He pressed her against the wall. "How exciting! I haven't tried doing it in a corridor before!"
In a ragged breath, he ordered his bodyguards, "You lot, surround me, and don't let anyone come near us!"
They replied in unison, "Yes, sir!"
Yasmin struggled with all her might as she screamed, "Caleb Zimmer! My dad will never forgive you if you lay a finger on me!"
"Wait until he's out of prison, then we'll talk." Caleb smirked.
One hand grabbed her hair, and the other caressed her nape.
Yasmin scrunched up her eyebrows in pain and used the last of her strength to kick him away.
Caleb pressed her legs down and said through gritted teeth, "Still trying to fight? I'm not worthy of my name if I don't tame you tonight."
Yasmin was chilled to the bone when she heard that.
Amid her daze, she saw a few figures appear upstairs. It was Blake and Giselle. Giselle was holding Blake's arm, looking all cute and helpless.
Yasmin's heart skipped a beat. Just as she was about to shout for help, Caleb slapped a hand over her mouth and ordered, "Don't shout!"
He was afraid of Blake and asked the bodyguards to block Yasmin from view.
Yasmin eyes flashed, and she bit down fiercely on Caleb's hand.
Caleb—feeling the pain—let go.
Yasmin screamed for help, "BLAKE!"
Blake turned his head toward her.
It was too dark for her to see Blake's face. She only vaguely sensed him glancing in her direction.
His demeanour turned grave.
His bearing went from calmly dignified to coldly violent in a matter of seconds.
He stalked over and saw Yasmin being restrained by Caleb, her clothes disheveled.
In that instant, his eyes blazed with coldness. His strong hand grabbed Caleb by the hair, yanking him away from Yasmin.
Caleb, one head shorter than Blake, was lifted off the ground. He was so terrified that his face turned pale. "M-Mr. F-Ford…"
"How dare you touch my woman?" Blake said in a deep voice. The next second, he bashed Caleb's head against the wall with a loud bang. Blood ran down Caleb's face.
Yasmin was stunned. Blake said that she was "his woman"?
Blake forced Caleb's bleeding head to look up at Yasmin. "Is this someone you can touch?"
Caleb was in so much pain that he became partly disfigured. With blood flowing down his face, he pleaded for mercy, "I'm sorry, Yasmin, I was wrong… "
"I can't hear you." Blake pressed Caleb's face against the wall harder.
Caleb's nose was bleeding. He pleaded in a quivering voice, "Yasmin, I was friends with your father. Please, ask Mr. Ford to have mercy on me and let me go…"
"If you hadn't betrayed my father, why would his company have encountered a crisis?" Yasmin kicked Caleb. She was very weak, so she leaned against the wall.
Caleb was responsible for her father's downfall two years ago.
As her father's supplier, he had secretly mixed a lot of shoddy stock into the raw materials he sold to her father—leading to the company's downfall. When the company fell, her father took all the blame.
Her father was in prison, and Caleb had gotten away with it.
