The Seventh Miserable Bride novel Chapter 12

The dinner served in the Simons family was even more sumptuous than their breakfast. Mila Simons held her daughter- in- law's hand and chatted excitedly, retelling her journey to the Emperor Mountain in the afternoon to return the favor of the monk's blessings.

Titus Simons was listening on the side, while Tiffany Simons complained that her brother was being a nuisance, who had to be invited downstairs for meals multiple times a day.

"Thump- thump- thump- trump", hard and fast-moving footsteps were approaching. Yasmine Taylor turned her head and saw Sebastian Simons walking towards the table, expressionless. It was obvious that he had just taken a shower, exuding a minty scent.

"Let's eat."

Mila patted the back of her daughter-in-law's hand and instructed the servants beside her, "Serve the soup we made for Young Madam Yasmine."

The maid quickly served her a bowl of soup. Flattered, Yasmine thanked her mother-in-law with a smile.

"Drink while it's hot. It's been a long day for you, dear."

Sebastian snorted, "How tiring can teaching get? All she does is just talk all day." Titus raised his eyebrow at his son, questioning, "Do you think it's easy to be a teacher? You have no say on this if you have never been a teacher."

"That's right. Yasmine is teaching students at their rebellious stage. It feels like a tough job to have, even by just thinking about it now." Tiffany chirped, adding to her dad's point.

Sebastian threw a sharp glare at Tiffany. Knowing her brother, she immediately swallowed her words and shut her mouth.

"Ignore what he just said. He's just jealous of the way we treat you." Mila eyed her son warningly.

"Mom, we are going to visit my family this weekend."

Yasmine looked her mother-in-law in her eyes and announced seriously.

"Both of you?"

Her mother-in-law stammered, uncertain if what she heard was true.

"Yes, both of us," Yasmine replied.

"Oh my God! Is this true? Brother, you are going with Yasmine to visit her family?"

Tiffany squealed, getting so excited that she forgot the warning glare her brother threw at her minutes ago.

Sebastian did not utter a word. For family members who knew him well enough, if he stayed silent, it meant that he agreed to something. Needless to say, the Simons' family was delighted, except for Sebastian, of course. It's not that visiting Yasmine's family was terrible, but infuriating. The thing Sebastian could not tolerate the most was to have fallen into Yasmine's trap.
