However, Blake immediately went silent once the child was brought up.
Then, he simply glanced at Yasmin and said, "Let's go downstairs."
"Are you not going to tell me about it?" Yasmin was curious.
In fact, she'd pondered about the possibilities of the situation after Arthur had talked about it in the afternoon.
Then, Blake answered, "It's my child."
Three months ago, he had promised Giselle to publicly announce that it was his child.
Upon hearing this, Yasmin was shocked, and her mind went blank.
Suddenly, a bitter expression appeared on her face as well.
"Do you feel sad?" Blake asked.
Yasmin chuckled. "Why would I feel sad? We're already divorced."
"Don't talk about this in front of my grandpa," Blake instructed.
Yasmin was puzzled. "Why?" she asked. All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
"My mom's health has been deteriorating recently. So, I'm afraid that this matter might hit him hard too," Blake replied.
Yasmin nodded in understanding.
After walking out of the room, they then headed to Arthur's room.
Meanwhile, in Athur's room, Thomas was handing a cup of water to Arthur for him to take his medicine with.
Yasmin worriedly watched Arthur swallow a handful of pills.
Watching him take so many pills was truly heartbreaking.
"I've asked both of you to come over because I have questions that I need to ask face-to-face— What's going on with you two?" After chugging down some water to swallow the pills, Arthur lay his gaze on them.
Yasmin felt exposed under Arthur's gaze, and she froze on the spot.
Immediately after, Blake took her into his embrace, and the faint scent of cedar entered her nose.
Blake then smiled and said, "Grandpa, we're doing fine. Don't worry."
"You're not putting on an act as a lovey-dovey married couple that's secretly divorced behind my back, right?" Arthur had a discerning gaze.
Blake smiled faintly. "How could that be? We'd never divorce."
Yasmin's eyebrow twitched slightly when he said that.
But at the next moment, Blake let go of her and walked over to Arthur.
Then, he pointed at the Othello board. "Grandpa, the next move should be like this."
Arthur glanced over, and as if he'd reached an epiphany, he said, "That's true."
"Grandpa, let me join you for Othello." Blake then sat opposite of Arthur.
Distracted by the Othello board, Arthur stopped scrutinizing them.
Yasmin let out a sigh of relief.
It seemed only Blake could handle Arthur.
Yasmin would've revealed everything if Arthur questioned her.
In the end, Arthur won two rounds of Othello. So, he was in a good mood.
"It's time for bed. Hurry up and give me a great-grandchild." Arthur then shooed them to sleep.
With that, Blake and Yasmin left Arthur's room.
But as soon as Yasmin walked into the other bedroom, Arthur's voice came from the hallway.
"What's wrong? Do you two sleep separately?" he poked his head out of his room and asked.
Yasmin was caught red-handed, and her face turned red as she looked at Blake.
But Blake calmly stood beside her and answered Arthur's question, saying, "No way. This is her study.
"She tends to work here, and she needs to get something in the room now."
"What could that be?" Arthur walked over to them.
Yasmin was panic-stricken as she looked at Blake with pleading eyes.
However, Blake remained calm and simply closed the door into the room.
Then, he stopped Arthur and said, "Grandpa, Yasmin wanted to get something personal. It's not appropriate for you to see it."
"What would that personal item be?" Arthur looked at Yasmin.
But Yasmin didn't know how to answer his question.
After all, she wasn't intending to get any personal items in the first place.
Then, Blake whispered closely into Arthur's ear, "Something to get her pregnant."
Arthur's eyes were wide open, and Yasmin's face was flushed red.
What Blake said had shocked her to her core.
