The Seventh Miserable Bride novel Chapter 157

Yasmine Taylor was silent. After a long pause, she finally spoke, "Dad, please give me some time to think about this."

Titus Simons nodded and patted her on the shoulder. "Child, I'm really sorry."

Yasmine's lips twitched. She was extremely sad, but she held back her tears. Tears were never her weapon. Even if her tears flowed endlessly like a river, her dark life would not become bright.

After she parted ways with Titus, she returned home with a gloomy expression. She locked herself in the room until the sky turned dark. She never stepped out again.

In the evening, Yasmine forced a smile on her face and headed downstairs. She did not wish for her family to see how she was feeling. Sebastian Simons gently reached out his hand and touched her forehead. "Are you not feeling well? Why do you look so pale?"

"I'm fine."

She tried very hard to squeeze out a smile. She then picked up her cutlery to eat.

"Have a drumstick."

Sebastian tore off a big drumstick from the roast chicken that was in the middle of the dining table and handed it to Yasmine. "You are too thin. You must eat more meat." Yasmine quickly put the chicken drumstick into his plate and said, "You should eat it. You have to work hard every day."

"I'm a man. I won't collapse even if I go hungry for three days. Just eat it."

He put the drumstick back into Yasmine's plate.

"You'd better eat it. I'll just eat the chicken wings."

"What's wrong with you? Just eat what I gave you."

The chicken drumstick was passed back and forth between the two of them, and everyone at the table was dizzy. They saw the chicken drumstick got passed from the left to the right, and then back from the right to the left, which got them totally confused.

Finally, Tiffany Simons couldn't stand it anymore. She reached out a hand and grabbed the chicken drumstick, putting it into her plate. "Just let me eat it if you are not having it. I'm growing and I need the nutrition."

Sebastian and Yasmine glanced at her blankly, and then they looked at each other.

"I really can't stand you two. It's just a chicken drumstick. You make our family seem very poor, as if roast chickens are hard to come by."

Tiffany chided her brother and sister-in-law as she ate the drumstick.

Sebastian glared at her, tore off the other drumstick, and handed it to Yasmine. "Eat quickly, don't get robbed by the bandits again."

"Humph!" Tiffany snorted. "Who's going to snatch it from you two? Both of you are so lovey-dovey that it's disgusting."

"You're just jealous."

"Come on, since you have such a good relationship, why don't you have a child yet? I've been looking forward to being an aunt for a long time."

Tiffany's unintentional words were like a bomb, letting the atmosphere in the house to its freezing point.

Everyone had different expressions on their faces. Yasmine was speechless and sad, while Sebastian was stiff and angry. Titus and his wife were shocked and uneasy.

"What's wrong with everyone? Why are you all looking at me? Is there something on my face?"

Tiffany did not realize what kind of trouble she had caused and she rubbed her face with a blank look on her face.

"Will you die if you don't talk?"

Sebastian asked with a sullen face. Tiffany was shocked by her brother's cold attitude and she said, "Did I say anything that was offensive? I just hope that you two will have a baby."

"Shut up."

Madam Simons also scolded her with a gloomy face. Tiffany was completely stunned. "What's wrong? Why are all of you acting like this?"

She pouted in grievance and crossed her hands in front of her chest helplessly.

Seeing her sister- in- law's innocent expression, Yasmine took a deep breath and said frankly, "Tiffany, I'm infertile. You're the only one in our family who doesn't know this."

As soon as Yasmine finished her sentence, the atmosphere became more solemn. Tiffany widened her eyes in shock and looked at her parents, then at her sister-in-law. She got panicked and she couldn't say a word.

Yasmine slowly got up and politely nodded at her parents-in-law. "Mom and Dad, please go ahead. I'm not feeling well. I'll go upstairs and take a rest."

Looking at her lonely figure, Madam Simons sighed deeply. Sebastian suddenly stood up, rolled his eyes at his sister, and then ran after Yasmine.

Yasmine entered the bedroom. Just as she was about to close the door, Sebastian stood in front of her, panting heavily. She looked at him in a daze and was speechless for a while.

"Yasmine, I'm sorry. Tiffany did not know what she was saying. She didn't mean to hurt your feelings."

Yasmine chuckled and said, "It doesn't matter. I don't blame her."

Yasmine saw that Sebastian's eyes were full of worry. She took two steps forward and reached out to hug him. At this moment, he didn't need to say much. Just a hug from him was enough.

What Titus had said to her during the day, plus Tiffany's unintentional words during dinner, haunted Yasmine for the whole night. The next day, she took the initiative to ask her father-in-law out and told him, "Dad, I've thought it over and I agree with your proposal. However, I have a request."
