"Leo, let her go!" I had never seen Yasmine so fragile. Even when she had been falsely accused and thrown in jail, there was ambition in her eyes. Now, they were devoid of life.
"Ani," Yasmine said my nwith a smile, though tears streamed down her face.
My heart ached. I had always thought Yasmine wasn't deeply invested in Leo, but now it was clear she had suffered because of love.
Leo tugged at the corners of his lips and stepped back, collapsing onto the sofa. Like a king in his domain, he spread his arms, crossed his legs, and looked at us with arrogance.
"I almost forgot-this isn't just any woman you can bully. She's got the president of Jones Corporation backing her! "If you hadn't shown up, I really might have forgotten about it. I thought she had scapabilities, but it turns out even Jay Caldwell & Co. was handed to her by you." He fixed his gaze on me. Take care of your friend and keep her away from me. Even as an illegitimate son, she's not good enough for me!" Then, his eyes turned fierce as he shouted, "Get out!" Yasmine stared blankly ahead, as lifeless as a statue. Just as I was about to speak, she suddenly sat up, swaying as if she had downed two bottles of liquor.
I rushed to steady her. Yasmine then turned to Leo and said, "Trash-I misjudged you!" Grasping my wrist, she then said, "Ari, takeaway." She blinked atdiscreetly, out of Leo's line of sight, her grip was so tight it hurt my wrist.

Yasmine clung to my hand for support but glanced at Beth, who had also climbed in. "Can she be trusted?" I nodded. Yasmine handeda device about the size of a palm. "I took this when I went to the third floor. You might find it useful." This.." She smiled faintly, the vulnerability from earlier completely gone. I wonder if this counts as tuming against my own." I stared at her, my gaze deep. "Don't risk yourself like this again. This isn't something you should be doing!
"Ari.." Yasmine suddenly wrapped her anms around my neck.

Don't be mad at me..." "Cut it out! Do you know how worried I was about you?" My patience snapped, and my anger surged.
"How many lives do you have to spare for these stunts of yours?"
She started whining incoherently. "Ari, if you keep scolding me, I'll really cry. I was upset! khad to think of a way to vent! Otherwise, being dumped like that is just too humiliating!
"He said I wasn't good enough for him, so I'm going to make sure e he loses everything thought he was different from the others, Ari. I don't understand anymore. He used to be so good to me..." Forced into her embrace, I could hear her faint sobbing more clearly than anyone else.
