Giving in to Her Rebellious Streak (Yasmin and Blake) novel Chapter 2

Yasmin felt a little bitter. She grabbed some dark clothes from the wardrobe and returned to the room. There, she heard Blake talking to someone on the phone. 

“Don’t be scared. Have Alicia keep an eye on you. I’ll be right there.” His voice was a brand of tenderness that Yasmin had never heard before. 

She stopped short. Suddenly, the sweetness she’d felt earlier dissipated. She asked tentatively, “Who was that, Mr. B?” 

He glanced at her, his tall stature domineering. He said coldly, “No one.” 

“Was it a woman?” 

“It’s none of your business.” He grabbed the clothes from her and put them on. Usually, he would have her put them on for him. 

Would every man start to be repelled by their wives once they fell in love with someone else? 

Yasmin’s stomach started convulsing. It looked like she had a stomach problem. She felt horrible. 

Blake got dressed and turned to leave. Yasmin was on high alert—a woman’s sixth sense was powerful. She ran to the door and said, “I’m feeling a little sick, Mr. B. Could you stay the night?” 

Blake turned to look at her. He was unbelievably handsome, but there was something about him that just made him seem heartless. “Have Mary call the family doctor if you’re not feeling well. Also, I won’t be back for some time.” 

With that, he headed downstairs. His figure went further and further away under the warm lights. Yasmin suddenly felt dazed. Why did it feel like she’d never truly held a spot in his heart? 

A wave of nausea washed over her. She ran to the bathroom and vomited her dinner. This was followed by a sharp pain in her stomach. 

She was as pale as a sheet as she struggled to crawl to the bed. She’d just laid down when another bolt of pain shot through her.
