Especially considering the methods of that man, she knew he could handle an orphan without difficulty. She had always been unsure of what she was truly worried about. 

Hearing this, Yasmin felt even more guilty towards her daughter. “It’s okay, I’m right here with you, aren’t I? If it gets damaged or lost, I will get you a new one!” 

“Thank you, Mom!” Christine smiled brightly. “But it’s alright. It means a lot to me. It was the first gift you gave me, and if I replace it, it won’t hold the same meaning. I want to keep it as it is.” 

That man had warned her. If she flaunted it, he would deal with her personally. She still didn’t have the resources to fight back. He had personally placed her in this position, but if he decided otherwise, she could easily be brought back to her original state. 

“You silly g 

girl.” Yasmin affectionately pinched her cheeks. Then go take off your makeup and take care of your skin, It’s not good for your skin to leave it on.” 

“Okay.” 

Christine returned to her room, fearing that continuing the conversation might reveal some flaw. 

As soon as Joanne approached, Yasmin made her decision known. “Buy that villa we looked at before.” Joanne hesitated. “Are you sure you’ve thought this through? 

It wasn’t about the money, but rather, whether Yasmin was really ready to settle in Jeswood. Over the years, she had bought many properties for Yasmin across the country. Yet, Jeswood had always been met with only hotel stays. Joanne knew that Yasmin disliked Jeswood and, more accurately, hated the people here, which extended to a dislike of the city itself. 

Yasmin looked softly in the direction of the bedroom. “I’ve thought it through. As long as Christine is happy, that’s all that matters.” 

I stepped out of the toilet, my steps unsteady, while the banquet hall remained dazzling with stars. As I walked out, I looked around, trying to figure out who might have drugged me. 

“Charlotte!” Ryan strode over and steadying me. “Are you not feeling well?” 

“No…” Under the effects of the drug, my voice was different, sounding weak and as if I couldn’t take care of myself. 

Ryan immediately noticed something was wrong, his voice became cold, “Did someone drug you?” 

“I think so!” 

At that moment, I trusted Ryan more than anyone else. I struggled to control my body’s heat and looked at him. “Could you please take me back?” 

“I can’t let you go back alone like this.” 

Ryan squinted his eyes, took off his jacket and draped it over my shoulders, then put his arm around me to support me, reducing the risk of me falling due to being too weak. 

“Thank you,” I said.
