"It's just a rough draft, not completely done yes," Yasmine clarified.
Effie finished breakfast with Yasmine and then went back to her room. Yasmine, feeling exhausted, flopped onto her bed, feeling dizzy and heavy Just before she drifted off to sleep, her phone rang. It was Xavier calling. She answered groggily, What is in Yasmine, Helen told me everything. She shouldn't have had you kidnapped, but what about that video? Xavier asked.
asmine didn't have time to explain everything. "Xavier, do you know why Helen had me kidnapped? Do you know who gave me the video? It wasn't taken on the day of the kidnapping. A man filmed it before that. Do you know why?"
There was a long silence on the phone, as if Xavier didn't know how to respond. It stretched on until Yasmine was almost asleep, Finally, he spoke. I'm sorry for what Helen did, but the video... Xavier hesitated, smine let out a cold laugh. "You're such a good brother, cleaning up her mess without caring what she did."
What do you mean"" Xavier asked
Helen had me kidnapped to extort 16.5 million from my cousin. I just said I would pay. That video of Helen wasn't taken under my pressure; it was dready filmed. Aren't you curious why?" Yasmine chuckled softly. Kavier was anxious. "Yasmine, no matter what, about that video"
'She doesn't even dare to tell you the truth, and you come to me about the video? Find out the truth and then come talk to me" Yasmine's eyes turned cold as she powered off her phone and closed her eyes. She was exhausted, the fatigue of a sleepless night washed over her body at that
moment.
After hanging up. Xavier pondered for a moment before finally stepping out of the study.
Selena was holding Helen, comforting her. As soon as she saw him come out, she stood up immediately. "Xavier, how did it go?"
Xavier, with a stern face, glared at Helen and let out a laugh of frustration. "At this point, you're still trying to lie?
"What do you mean, Xavier What are you talking about? Selena was at a loss.
"You still don't want to talk? If you don't want to say anything, then don't. But if something happens later, don't come to me. I'll make an announcement that you're no longer part of the Flynn family Xavier's eyes were grave,
Helen couldn't believe her brother was actually trying to kick her out of the Flynn family. Tears streamed down her face as she clutched Selena's hand anxiously. "Mom! Did you hear what Xavier just said? He wants to kick me out. It must be Yasmine, that witch, spreading lies about me. Xavier, how can you believe Yasmine over your own sister?"
I told you, tell me the truth, Xavier insisted firmly.
Selena patted Helen's shoulder. Just say it. There's no p
e's no point hiding it now,
"T-I'll say in Helen burst into tears once more. "That night, I got drunk at the bar, and when I woke up, I realized. And then that man said he already recorded a video and demanded 165 million! That's when I thought of kidnapping her, but who knew Yasmine had already paid him off Xavier pointed at her, exasperated. "Foolish Instead of taking responsibility for your mistakes, you blame others! You've been spoiled at home for so long, that's why you keep doing things like this! I'm utterly disappointed in you!"
"Xavier, I truly know I was wrong. The moment I saw the video, I knew it, but there was nothing I could do. If I didn't pay him, he'd release the video, and then everyone would find out. I absolutely can't let that happen Helen wiped a tear away.
Xavier suddenly recalled the time Helen came to the office, asking for permission to go abroad. Could it have been because of that incident: "When you came to me wanting to leave the country, was it because of that man you accidentally injured with a dagger?" he asked
Helen nodded while crying, "Yes, it was him. But later I found out he wasn't dead."
"Helen, my daughter, why didn't you tell us before! If your brother had given you the money, none of this would have happened: Selena was heanbroken for her daughter, feeling a sting in her nose.
"What's he came Xavier's voice was cold, tinged with anger.
Dal Finot sure if that's his real name, but I have his photo Helen pulled out her phone and showed Xavier a picture she had secretly
the hotel. After that, she wiped her tears, "Even if you won't help me, I'll go find Yasmine myself and end it all."
"Helen, how could your brother not help you?" Selena exclaimed.
"Yasmine's abroad. How do you plan on going? Xavier scoffed.
"I don't need you interfering. After all, you don't consider me your sister anymore," Helen retorted.
Xavier's face tumed grim. "I'll get m
my hands on the video. As for that Dalton... I'll make him wish he was dead."
"Xavier, I knew you wouldn't abandon me," Helen said.

Saint's Haven. Yasmine woke up after sleeping for several hours to find it was already 2 PM. Despite the long rest, she still felt exhausted, groggily opening her eyes. When she checked her phone, there were numerous missed calls-two from Xavier, one from Effie, and the rest were from Yoselin and Lucy.
Xavier must have already interrogated Helen about it. She returned the call. The phone was quickly answered, "Hello? Yasmine?"
"Did you figure it out!" she sneered.
"Sorry, it was Helen's mistake. Yasmine, I want to discuss the video. After all, we used to be family. Xavier's tone was urgent.
Yasmine couldn't help but laugh. "Family? Xavier, isn't that absurd! Tell you what, I won't make things difficult fo million. How much can you pay?*
for you. This video cost me 16.5
Xavier asked, "How much do you want?"
""Double."
33 million!" Xavier's voice was hurried.
Yasmine smiled faintly, "Yes, 33 million. Once you're sure, transfer the money and I'll destroy the video,"
Xavier took a deep breath, Yasmine, if that's what you w
want, I'll agree
"What does it have to do with me, Mr. Flynn! If you want to cover up for Helen, show some sincerity. Don't forget, I paid 16.5 million too." Yasmine hung up the phone. She rubbed her ured eyes. Climbing out of bed, Yasmine remembered to call Lucy. "Hey Lucy, what's up?"
Yasmine! Took you long enough to answer! Where have you been hanging out? Any cute guys! Save one for me! Lucy chirped excitedly.
"Oh, are you planning to come over?" Yasmine asked
After a brief pause, Lucy replied, "If there are cute guys, I'm there,"
"Wow, the street outside is full of handsome guys!" Yasmine chuckled.
Lucy screamed, Tm coming right away!
Suddenly feeling calm, Yasmine said, "I just saw Yonas"
