The Seventh Miserable Bride novel Chapter 113

Sebastian Simons looked at her with his sharp eyes, and waited for her to answer.

Yasmine Taylor pondered for a moment and said frankly, "Is it a big deal that I know Ethan?"

"Yes, it's really not a big deal, but I'm very curious about how you both had come to know each other."

"It was when we were in Paris the last time, he was the man who chased after the thief for me at night by the Seine river."

A trace of surprise flashed across Sebastian's eyes. "Why didn't you tell me?"

"I wanted to tell you, but you were angry and didn't want to listen to me at all. At that time, I didn't know that the man was indeed Ethan Zordon either. It was not only until I saw a photo of him with you and Abigail in the drawer of your office that I realized his real identity."

"Have you guys met before? The two of you?"

"Yes."

Yasmine answered every question. She had written a repentance letter to Sebastian before, which stated that she would never hide anything from him ever again.

After a brief silence, Sebastian said in a deep voice, "Don't keep in touch with him in future anymore."

"Why?" "Do you really not know the reason?" He raised his eyebrows.

"So you want me to stop being friends with him just because he took away your fiancee?"

"Yes."

"I'm sorry. I'm afraid that I can't do that for you. He's your enemy, not mine. He's my friend."

"Friend? Are you still treating a man who had betrayed your husband as your friend?"

"Ethan is not a bad guy."

"If I say that you're not allowed to keep contact with him, then you're not allowed to do so."

"Why do I have to follow whatever you say? You said that I'm not allowed to keep in contact with Scott Jules so I had to keep a distance from him. Now, you said I'm not allowed to be friends with Ethan so I had to cut ties with him. Do you really think that you are the King and I must obey everything that you have said? Are your words so sacred that it cannot be violated? Don't try to exert your male chauvinism in front of me and treat me like this because I've never made such unreasonable requests to you at all."

"Have I done something that had upset you?"

"Of course you did. You knew that I would be upset if you were to meet up with Abigail, but you met up with her anyway, didn't you? Let's do it this way then. I promise that I won't meet Scott or Ethan, provided that you don't meet Abigail anymore, can you do it?"

Sebastian was stunned for a moment and he did not give her a clear answer. His silence was the best answer. Yasmine knew very well that he could not do it.

The reality was indeed such a saddening thing. She went out of the room dejectedly and arrived at the courtyard of the hotel. She sat on an ice-cold chair and thought about their future.

After thinking for a long time, she still couldn't come up with a clear direction for their future. The dim street lamp above the hotel shone on her, who was hugging her knees in her arms.

Her eyes were fixed on the ground and suddenly, she saw a pair of shiny leather shoes. She didn't have to look up to know who was standing in front of her. Sebastian put a thick coat on her and said with his deep voice, "It's cold, let's go back to the room."

She stood up in a hurry and shoved the coat back into his hand. She then returned to the room without looking back at all.

That night, the two of them turned their backs to each other and did not utter a word at all. Yasmine could clearly feel that the person that was sleeping beside her had turned over a few times and wanted to say something to her, but in the end, he did not let his words out.

She couldn't help but to think that sometimes, people were like the fish in a fish tank. They wanted to say a lot, but whenever they opened their mouths, their words changed into a group of bubbles... Finally, their words could only be left in their hearts.

When they arrived in B City, it was already noon the next day. As soon as Yasmine stepped into the house, she asked her mother-in-law, "Mom, where is Tiffany?"

Madam Simons pointed upstairs and said with a gloomy look on her face, "She had been locking herself up in the room and hasn't come out for the whole day."

It seemed that her mother-in-law had languished overnight. Yasmine comforted her, "Mom, don't be sad. I'll go and see her."

"Okay."
