The Seventh Miserable Bride novel Chapter 190

On the top of the mountain where the cold breeze was blowing, a thin figure stood in front of a deserted cemetery.

When Yasmine Taylor remembered that it had been two whole years since she had visited her mother last time, her heart was filled with blame, guilt, sadness, and despair...

Yasmine put a bouquet of lilies in front of the tombstone and knelt down. "Mom, I'm finally back to see you. I'm sorry that it took me so long. With none of our relatives around to visit you, you must have been lonely for the past two years. No one came to visit you and no one sent you the flowers that you liked so much. What a lonely period it must have been..."

Tears flowed out of her eyes, and her fingers trembled as she reached out to her mother's photo. "I dare not come back. When I return to this familiar land, I feel like I have returned to the pain that I have experienced in the past. From when I was twelve till I was twenty- five, I have been destroyed by the broken family love and unfortunate marriage until the faith in me has completely shattered. I left with a broken heart and went far away..."

Yasmine's shoulders trembled because of the overwhelming sadness. Despite having cried out in desperation in front of her mother's tombstone two years ago before she left, Yasmine's heart still ached terribly. She told her mother about the helplessness she had been through, as well as the reason she had left.

"Mom, you are the only person who loved me the most in the world. Even if you were buried down here, you would understand the life I used to live in the past, but now you can rest assured because everything has passed. I am no longer the same person I was in the past. I will no longer treat others kindly and unconditionally, and I will not let others hurt me again. My heart was grown and tempered in pain, and it had changed in despair. No one can hurt me again."

The rain finally fell, pouring, but she had expected it all along. Yasmine knew from the beginning that this rain could not be avoided...

In the large dining room in the Simons family residence, only three people had gathered together for dinner. They were Titus Simons, Madam Simons, and Sebastian Simons.

The originally luxurious and long table in the family had been changed to a square table. No one could recall exactly when it was changed, perhaps a year or two ago, or even longer. No one could remember the specific time, but everyone who stayed in the family knew that this was done so that they could forget those who had left.

After all, sitting on one's usual spot, how could one eat happily having noticed the empty seats on the table? No, so the best way to forget was not to look at the things that could make you remember those that you had left in your lives.

Madam Simons had a serious expression on her face as if she had something on her mind. She glanced at her son from time to time. She wanted to speak but stopped a few times. In the end, she could not control herself and revealed the confusion in her heart.

"I... seem to have seen someone today."

Titus slowly raised his head and rebutted her grumpily, "Is it rare to see a person? You're saying as if the people you've seen all day aren't humans."

Ever since his son had moved back, Titus' condition improved a lot. Although his son had returned to his cold and numb demeanor that he had many years ago, and perhaps even more indifferent than before, Titus was thankful as long as his son returned to their side.

"She's not just someone..." Madam Simons muttered.

"Who is it?"

Titus raised his eyebrows, seemingly sensing her caution.

"I think I saw Yasmine..." she said.

Suddenly, the atmosphere of the dining room froze, and the couple turned their gaze to their son at the same time.

Sebastian's eyelashes only quivered slightly when he heard the name that he had sealed deeply in his heart, and he remained indifferent. Having seen this, the Simons couple felt an ache in their hearts. What kind of despair could he have possibly experienced that he was still unmoved when he heard such news? Was it possible that their son's happiness had really been destroyed by them... Yasmine returned to the hotel from the mountain. From a distance, she saw Gabriel Smith anxiously pacing back and forth outside the hotel. She felt a sudden warmth in her heart. At least after she lost everything, there was still someone who would worry about her and worry to find her.

"Director Smith, are you waiting for me?" she asked.

Gabriel heard her voice and raised his head immediately. When he saw Yasmine, who was drenched all over, he asked angrily, "Where have you been?"

"I went to the nearby shopping mall and bought some clothes," she lied.

Yasmine waved the bag in her hand.

"If you want to buy clothes, you could just ask me to come along with you. After all, you are not familiar with this place. That's some guts you have."

"These are all lingerie. I'll be embarrassed if you accompany me," she said.

"You shouldn't sneak out without telling me at all. I couldn't get through your phone. Don't you know that I'll be worried?"

She pursed her lips innocently, "If I had asked you, would you have let me go alone..."

Gabriel was taken aback. "What about your phone? Why couldn't I reach you?"

"It's out of power," she answered.

"I thought your phone went missing with you." He stared at her with affection and said, "Go get changed and don't catch a cold." "Yes, sir!"

Yasmine saluted to him with a standard military salute and Gabriel's anger dissipated in an instant. A relieved smile appeared on his thin sexy lips.

Perhaps because of the rain, the sky had already turned dark at 5.30 p.m. After taking a hot bath and changing into clean clothes, Yasmine came to the restaurant on the first floor of the hotel, where Gabriel was waiting for her to have dinner together.

"What would you like to have?"

Gabriel handed her the menu.

"Whatever."

"Do you know the moment when you are least adorable?"

She shook her head. "I don't know."
