The Seventh Miserable Bride novel Chapter 102

Scott saw Sebastian, too. Although his expression was not as panicked as Yasmine, there was a complex look in his eyes.

"Take your coat."

Yasmine quickly shrugged off Scott's coat and stuffed it in his hands. She ran towards Sebastian’s car. Watching Yasmine's back as she ran away from him, Scott felt as if an arrow pierced through his heart.

"Honey, please don't misunderstand. It's definitely not what you think."

Yasmine tried to explain once she got onto the car.

Sebastian glanced at her coldly. "If it wasn't what I thought it was, then why did you lie?"

"I was just afraid that you'd misunderstand."

"So, I won’t get the wrong message now?"

Yasmine sighed. "If I had known better, I wouldn't have lied."

"I think you've gotten used to lying."

Sebastian snorted in a self-deprecating way. "You're used to treating me like a fool."

"It's not like this. I’m sorry, my dear. I promise I won't lie to you again. Even if you don't forgive me and quarrel with me, I won't lie to you anymore. From now on, I will not hide any secrets from you.”

Sebastian did not pay attention to her. He kept his eyes on the road and drove very quickly.

"I didn’t even know Auntie Claudine's son was Scott until he came. I know that both of you aren't on good terms, so I didn’t tell you that he was there. I didn’t want you to worry."

Yasmine continued to explain, she did not care if Sebastian was listening to her.

"He suddenly came to see his mother. When I saw him, my eyeballs almost fell out. I didn't know their relationship beforehand. If I had known earlier, I would never have gone for dinner in the first place."

"You know me best. If I had any feelings for Scott, I would have accepted him a long time ago. Why wait until now? I only see him as a friend, a colleague and a leader; anything but a lover. Because dear, you’ re everything to me. My heart can only fit one person and that’s you."

Yasmine tried to explain the whole way home, but Sebastian did not listen. By the time they arrived, Sebastian parked the car in the garage and immediately walked up to the house. Yasmine followed him closely, "Dear, did you hear everything I just said?"

"Can’t you just say something? Please."

The two of them went up the stairs. Sebastian did not enter the bedroom. Instead, he went into the study room and closed the door with a loud bang, leaving Yasmine standing alone outside the door, not knowing what to do.

Ring ring... Her phone rang. It was Scott. She hung up the phone without hesitation and placed it back into her bag. But Scott was still persistent, so he sent a text: "Are you okay?"

She quickly replied, "I'm fine."

Thereafter, Scott stopped texting her.

Yasmine turned around and walked into the bedroom. After a while, she walked out with a piece of paper written with words and went into the study room. She opened the door and passed the paper to Sebastian, “For you.”

Sebastian glanced at it, then looked away and ignored her.

"Read it. I wrote it from the bottom of my heart. This is the only time I'm writing you a letter, there’ll be no more letters."

Yasmine stuffed the paper into his hand. Sebastian was fed up. He crumpled up the paper into a ball and threw it into the bin.

"You..."

Yasmine was so angry that her veins on her neck were bulging. The letter she painstakingly wrote, he threw it in the bin without even reading it.

"Fine. If you want to be angry with me, suit yourself. I’ve got no time for you."

She snorted angrily, turned around and closed the door with a bang, leaving the room upset.

When his surroundings became quiet, Sebastian bent down slowly and picked up the crumpled paper from the bin. He uncrumpled the paper and flattened it so that he could read: "Dear husband, I was wrong today. I know that I made a mistake. I should not have been worried about you getting jealous and lied about Scott. I have reflected on my actions and so, I assure you that: Firstly, I' II never hide anything from you. If I ever do, please punish me accordingly. Secondly, I'll never go over to anyone's house for meals, be it a friend’s or a stranger's. Thirdly, I’ll never meet Scott alone outside of work. I’ll remember the above rules and act accordingly. If I were to break any one of them, you can kill me on sight."

"Hmph!" Sebastian snorted angrily and threw the paper into his drawer.

Yasmine waited for him throughout the night, but he did not come back to the room to rest. Having said those harsh words, she felt embarrassed to look for him, so she went to sleep alone.

After dawn, she got up very early. She went to the study room to take a look but he was not there. She went to the guest room and sure enough, he was there.

Sleeping in separate rooms again? Just because of that insignificant character, Scott? She finally realized that Sebastian was one who got jealous more easily than a woman.

When she got off work in the evening and went home, Sebastian had not come back. She really wanted to call him, but she felt that she was in no position to do so.

So she waited. She waited until 8 o' clock, until dinner was already over and yet he still had not come home. She could not resist any longer and called Sebastian. "Hello? Who is it?"

It was a woman who picked up the phone. Yasmine was stunned and asked, "Where is Sebastian?"
