The Seventh Miserable Bride novel Chapter 205

It was already early in the morning when they left the nightclub. Several colleagues were drunk. Sebastian Simons frowned at them and handed his car keys to the team leader. "It's not easy to call a taxi now. You should drive them home safely."

"Well, what are you going to do if you give us your car?"

"I'll just take a taxi back,"

Casting a glance at the colleagues behind them, the team leader nodded, "Well, thank you, President Sebastian."

"You're welcome. Thank you for your hard work."

After all her colleagues left, Yasmine Taylor asked, "What now?"

"I'm here. Don't worry about not being able to get home."

As Sebastian said, he took out his phone, ready to call a taxi.

"Wait a minute."

She stopped him, "Shall we walk home?"

"Walk?" Sebastian raised his eyebrows. "Do you know how long it would take to walk home from here?"

"It doesn't matter, I don't care how long it'll take."

The longer the walk, the better. She had not taken a walk with Sebastian for such a long time. "Then, let's make a deal first. Don't complain halfway that you're tired and ask me to carry you on my back."

"Okay, not a problem."

The two of them reached an agreement and took a step along the spacious, quiet road. Yasmine stared at the vast sky and sighed, "There are so many stars tonight."

"There are many stars every day."

"Who said so? Could you also see stars on a rainy day?"

"I can. As long as I close my eyes and imagine the stars all over the sky, it means I've seen them."

Ugh. Yasmine rolled her eyes when she heard that. She snorted, "You have an unrealistic view of life."

She lowered her head and glanced at Sebastian's hand and then at her own. Why was this guy so dumb? Both their hands were so close to each other but somehow he did not even know to take the initiative to hold her hand.

"I saw Leah tonight."

Sebastian was a little startled. "Where did you see her?"

"She said something to me in the nightclub,"

"Did you meet her when you left the room just now?"

"Yeah."

"What did she tell you?"

Yasmine raised her head and looked at him. She suddenly decided to pull a joke. "She told me everything about the relationship between you and her."

Sure enough, Sebastian was unnerved.

"There's nothing unusual between me and her."

"Really? I've already known everything, but you still wanna lie to me?"

"What did she tell you?"

"If you want to know what she told me, you must promise to answer a few questions of mine first."

Sebastian stared at her sly gaze. Although he knew it was a trap, he still promised. "Well, go ahead."

"How did you know her?"

"We met at the night club. She used to sell beer there and I helped her out when I saw that she was being harassed by several perverts."

"Oh, it seems as though you're always saving the damsels in distress. You're basically a girl's knight in shining armor. Do you like to be a hero especially in places like bars and nightclubs?"

Thinking about how he had also helped her out in the bar last time, Yasmine was indignant. Only God knew how many women he had saved over the past two years.

If every one of them was like Leah, she would definitely have a tough time.

Sebastian argued, "I happened to see her in that state, so I can't just look away and do nothing."

"What happened then? Did you two start seeing each other?" "Nope, she just discovered that I'm seeing a psychiatrist by accident. Like you, she went to ask Dr. Wadsworth about my condition. He didn't tell her, but she was very smart. While Dr. Wadsworth was consulting another patient, she took a peek at my medical records."

"And then?"

"Then we became partners,"

"Partners in what?"

"I'll bear her tuition fees in university and she'll cooperate with my treatment."
