Giving in to Her Rebellious Streak

Chapter 67

In the studio, Yasmin gave the cake to the staff before taking Ivan to the men’s display area. There were also various finished products, and Yasmin had designed all of them.

Ivan looked at them one by one as his gaze filled with admiration. “Did you design all of

them?”

Yasmin nodded with a smile. “Mm–hmm. Mr. Burke, are you looking for attire for Giselle O’Shea’s birthday party?”

“How did you know that?” Ivan was surprised.

Yasmin said smilingly, “She mentioned it this afternoon, saying her birthday party will be at the end of this month.”

Ivan nodded. “Are you upset that she came to you for a customized dress?”

Yasmin continued smiling. “Not at all. She brought business to me. Why would I be upset? Mr. Burke, what do you think about this attire?”

She pointed to a dark gray formal wear set in the display case. “How’s that?”

Ivan looked at her.

She said, “My hand is injured now. I can’t design, but these finished pieces can be slightly modified.”

Ivan asked, “Why did you choose dark gray for me?”

Yasmin said, “I think you’re a composed and reserved person. The gray color suits you. Besides, I’m sure Blake Ford will wear black at the party. If you also wear black, it might not be eye– catching.”

“Are you saying that I’m not as good–looking as him?” Ivan stared at her with a faint smile.

Yasmin shook her head. “Mr. Burke, that’s not what I meant. Both of you have different temperaments. I believe that gray color suits you better.”

Ivan nodded. “You seem to know him very well.”

Yasmin smiled. “Well, we’ve been married for two years. I roughly know about his preferences.” She actually remembered everything because she was the one who chose Blake’s clothes.

Ivan asked, “Do you two really have no feelings for each other?”

Yasmin glanced at him with a smile. “My mother–in–law arranged the blind date for me. What do you think?”

Ivan paused for a moment. “She wants you to divorce Blake Ford?”

Yasmin replied, “Mm–hmm, my background doesn’t match him. And you’ve seen Giselle O’Shea, haven’t you? The news reports are true.”

Ivan fell silent for a few seconds. “Is Blake Ford really the father of Giselle O’Shea’s unborn child?”

“Mm–hmm.” Yasmin had to admit it.

Ivan was somewhat taken aback. He did not expect the relationships to be so complicated. His lips parted, but he did not know what to say.

Yasmin said, “So now you know about it. If you mind my previous marriage with Blake Ford, we can end our relationship.”

In fact, she also did not want to keep it from him as she would feel guilty. Knowing he was aware of her past, she felt a bit relieved.

Ivan stared at her quietly for a moment before putting his hand on her head and patting it gently. “It must have been tough, right?”

Yasmin was stunned and lifted her gaze to look at him.

Ivan gazed at her tenderly. “In the past two years, your dad was in prison, and you had to fend for yourself in the Ford family. It must have been tough for you, right?”

Yasmin said, “It’s fine. Grandpa had been very kind to me.” Her response implied that the others in the family did not treat her very well.

Pity flashed in Ivan’s eyes. “I don’t mind.”

“Huh?” asked Yasmin.

Ivan said, “You asked me if I mind your past with Blake Ford. Now, I’ve answered you. I don’t mind.”

Yasmin was dumbfounded, ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Yasmin watched him leave as she remained calm. Ivan was very kind. His persona was so

perfect that it was too good to be true. Hence, Yasmin felt she needed to keep her guard up around him for the time being
