The Seventh Miserable Bride novel Chapter 160

That night was of great significance to the Simons family. Therefore, Titus Simons and Madam Simons, who would usually sleep early, were still awake. They were sitting on the sofa in the living room, waiting for their son to come home.

Tiffany Simons was hiding upstairs and she did not dare to come down. She did not tell her parents that Yasmine Taylor had gone out.

She knew that she had made a mistake, so she decide to hide.

At 11 o'clock, there was a sound of a car engine outside the door. The couple stood up and rushed out of the living room. They thought they would only see their son. they didn't expect to see Yasmine come out of his car as well.

Titus looked at them steadily. When he saw that they were holding hands in the distance, his face instantly sank.

Sebastian could clearly feel Yasmine's nervousness. He tightened his grip on her hand and whispered, "Don't be afraid. You should go upstairs first. Leave this to me."

Yasmine did not say anything, nor did she do what Sebastian had instructed her to do. She was not planning to let Sebastian face his parents' wrath all by himself. Instead, she went forward and faced her parents-in-law and knelt down.

"Yasmine, what are you doing?" Sebastian's eyes widened in shock. He reached out to help her up, but she stopped him.

"Yasmine, what are you..."

Madam Simons was also shocked by Yasmine's actions, and she had a blank and puzzled look on her face. Old Master Simons did not move at all. He had already guessed what had happened.

"Mom and Dad, I'm sorry. I brought Sebastian back.

I thought I could do what you hoped for me to do, but it turned out that I couldn't do it at all. I couldn't bear my husband sleeping with another woman. Even if you don't accept me as your daughter-in-law,

I won't live the way you had asked me to."

The couple did not speak. Sebastian growled, "Get up, let me talk to them."

He couldn't stand his parents' attitude towards Yasmine, and he was even more afraid that they would say something that would make her change her mind. He knew that even if Yasmine's heart was with him at this moment, in the face of this cruel reality, her determination could collapse at any time.

"I was the one who caused all these. If Mom and Dad refuse to forgive me, I will never get up."

Yasmine knelt down in front of her parents-in-law stubbornly. Sebastian told her that from then on, she had to learn to refuse all unreasonable demands. However, she was a traditionally-educated woman who would not openly resist her in-laws, but she would use her own way to prove that she would not give in.

The situation was in a stalemate for a moment. Finally, Madam Simons opened her mouth and said, "Alright. Get up now."

"Have you forgiven me, Mom?"

Madam Simons sighed and nodded slowly. "Yes."

Yasmine looked at Titus. "Dad, do you feel the same way as Mom does?"

Old Master Simons did not say anything. He turned around and returned to his room.

"Get up. His silence is his approval."

Madam Simons helped her up and then signalled to her son beside her. "It's getting late. You're tired too. Go upstairs and have some rest."

Sebastian grabbed Yasmine's hand and dragged her upstairs without looking back.

Madam Simons entered the living room and saw her husband sitting on the sofa, staring at her angrily. She walked over and asked, "Why are you staring at me like that?"

"I'm glaring at you because you didn't take a firm stance."

She shook her head helplessly, sat down beside her husband, and said patiently, "Will you be able to solve this by forcing her? Don't you know what your son's temper is like? If I hadn't threatened him with my life that day, did you think that he would have agreed to your unreasonable request? He probably would have left this house a long time ago."

Titus snorted and said, "Then let him leave. I'm his father and I was threatened too!"

"Then don't hide in the office alone while secretly looking at his pictures."

"When did I look at his pictures?"

Old Master Simons was a little embarrassed.

"Humph. Do you really think that I don't know about it? When our son was so angry about what we did to Abigail that he ran away from home, you would hide in the office every night, murmuring to his photos for ages. Just because I didn't say anything doesn't mean that I don't know. I just didn't want to expose you."

"So what? He did come back eventually, didn't he?"

"That's because Yasmine played a certain role. Do you think your daughter-in-law will still try to bring your son back if you offended her?"

Madam Simons' question left Old Master Simons speechless. In fact, he really did not have that kind of confidence.

"Well, don't be angry. I know you are eager to have a grandchild, but let's settle this matter slowly. There will always be another way."

With her husband's support and her parents-in-law's forgiveness, Yasmine saw a glimmer of hope in her dark life. The next day, she got up early and went to her secret room and opened the Chinese medicine that the old man had given her in Mount Emperor. After a moment of thought, she took it downstairs resolutely and decided to try it as a last resort.

Madam Simons smelled the strong scent of Chinese medicine when she woke up. She followed the smell and arrived at the kitchen. When she saw her daughter-in-law standing in front of the kitchen stove and fanning the fire, she asked doubtfully, "Yasmine, what are you doing?"

Yasmine turned around and saw that it was Madam Simons. She smiled sheepishly and said, "Mom, I'm boiling some herbs."
