The Seventh Miserable Bride novel Chapter 144

Abigail went silent. Sebastian sneered and said, "Let's eat."

"Brother Sebastian, why don't you divorce Yasmine? As long as you divorce her, even if you don't marry me, I won't hand over the evidence that incriminates your parents."

Sebastian took a sip of wine and stood up, saying, "I'm sorry. You can get married at any time, but not divorce. If you want to hand over the evidence then just go ahead."

He went to the counter to pay, and then resolutely left Abigail's sight. Watching him leave without looking back, Abigail could not help but cry.

When he got home, it was already past ten o'clock. He's not returned home so late in a long time. Yasmine sat on the sofa and waited for him. When she saw him come back, she smiled and said, "My hair almost turned white after waiting for you so long."

Sebastian sat down beside her and pulled her into his arms. In a hoarse voice, he said, "I'm sorry. I had something to do tonight."

"Let me guess."

Yasmine broke free from his arms and pretended to think. "You went to see Abigail, didn't you?"

Sebastian was slightly surprised. "How did you know?" "Let me guess again."

Yasmine continued to snap her fingers. "You went to ask her about your parents' evidence, but Abigail threatened you, asking you to divorce me. As long as you divorce me, she won't disclose the evidence."

Sebastian's eyes were wide open, and he wondered if Yasmine was also in that restaurant at that time, or if she had silently put a listening device on his body.

"How did you know that?"

Yasmine smiled bitterly and said, "Because someone threatened me in the same way last night. As long as I divorce you, the evidence incriminating your parents will be destroyed immediately "

"Who?"

"Claudine Tucker."

She sighed and said, "It seems like quite a few people want to separate you and I. What should we do?"

A fierce fire spurted out of Sebastian's eyes. He comforted Yasmine and said, "Don't care about them. Claudine wants to take down my family by herself. She thinks too highly of herself."

"Should I tell your parents about this?"

"Not at first. I will think of a way to solve this."

"But what if Claudine hands the evidence to the police?"

Sebastian snorted confidently and said, "Don't worry, she won't do it for the time being."

"How do you know that?" "This is the only leverage she has at present. Why would she hand it over so easily?"

Yasmine nodded and agreed with his opinion. After they snuggled up for a while, she suddenly said, "By the way, mom wants to take me on a trip for a few days next week..."

After saying that, she waited anxiously for Sebastian to get angry. In fact, there was no holiday. She had an appointment to get to.

Sebastian's body stiffened. He nodded meaningfully and said, "Well, just go."

"Aren't you against it?"

Yasmine was shocked. Last time she went on a trip, he was so angry, so why did he agree so readily this time? It was not his style at all.

"Why should I object? It's a good thing to go on a trip. You've been in a bad mood recently, so you should go and relax."

After hearing what he said, she felt at ease.

She hugged his neck and said with relief, "Thank you, my lover."

No one objected to the second trip except for Tiffany. Thus, Yasmine and her mother-in-law flew to the United States again.

This time, she was more nervous than the first time. Throughout the month, she'd taken the medicine punctually without knowing if it was working on her uterus or not. This trip would reveal if what lied ahead was hope, or despair.

After a series of routine tests, Yasmine and Madam Simons sat nervously in front of Adiana. "How was it? Did the medicine work?"

Adiana was silent for a few seconds, then nodded with a smile and said, "Well, not bad, the effect is quite visible."

Hearing what Adiana said, Yasmine and Madam Simons immediately relaxed. "Yasmine, did you hear that? Adiana said it's effective. It's effective!"

Madam Simons looked at Yasmine excitedly. Yasmine held her hands and nodded. "Yes, mom. I heard it. I heard it."

The two of them hugged each other happily and they did not notice a trace of regret in Adiana's eyes.

"I'll continue to give you medicine so as to accelerate the development of the uterus. This is a three- month treatment, and I have to add a new medicine to your prescription list. Remember, the new medicine must be taken one hour later than the other medicines."

"Yes, I got it."

Yasmine nodded, showing her gratitude to Adiana who had given her hope.

After returning to the hotel in the evening and having dinner, Yasmine went into the bathroom to take a bath. Madam Simons's cell phone suddenly rang. She was on the phone for a few minutes, then she hung up and went to the bathroom door. She knocked on the door and said, "Yasmine, I'm going out for awhile. I'll be back soon."

"Mom, where are you going alone?"

"There's an old friend who wants to meet me for a cup of coffee. I'll be back soon."

"Okay, be careful."

"Well, I know. You'd better stay in the hotel and not run around."

After saying that, Madam Simons left the room and arrived at a cafe named CoCo. She saw Adiana waving at her from a distance. Then, she hurried over and asked nervously as soon as she sat down, "What happened, Adiana? Why did you want to meet me at this time without Yasmine's knowledge?"

Adiana took a deep look at Madam Simons and said with a sigh, "Truth is, your daughter-in-law's condition is not very good."

"Not very good?" Madam Simons' face turned pale. "What does this mean?"
