The Seventh Miserable Bride novel Chapter 247

There was a moment of silence at the other end of the phone. Sebastian Simons then said, "Yasmine, these are all my intentions."

Yasmine Taylor was stunned and she questioned furiously, "Why? Why do you have to do this?"

"I didn't tell you this, but you almost miscarried when you stayed in the hospital after we rescued you from Claudine. The doctor said that you should have a good rest. Things like computers and mobile phones all emit radiation. So, you should stop using them for the time being, for the sake of our babies' health."

"How about newspapers? Do newspapers emit radiation as well?"

"The doctor also mentioned that you cannot be stressed. If one day you stumble upon the news of Yaslor Corporation's fall in stock price or something of the sort, you may start to worry again."

"Stop treating me like a child. I'm an adult. You're acting very strange now. I don't think that you're doing this for our children's sake. I think that you're just trying to confine me at home. You must be hiding something from me. Did something happen to you?" Yasmine's tone was filled with anger.

"No. Do you think that I would be talking to you right now if something had happened to me? You're being too sensitive, so I must take precautionary measures. Just hold on for another three months. I'll come and pick you up after our children are born," Sebastian tried to calm her down.

"But, I am not used to living like this. They took all of my money as well, they're no different from bandits!"

"If you need anything, just let them know. They will get it for you."

"I don't need anything. Ask them to give me my phone back!"

"No. If they gave you back your phone, you will call me every day and if you do that, the radiation will harm you."

"I won't call you."

"I don't believe you."

"Honey, I'm going to go crazy!"

"Think about our unborn children. Just be patient for a while."

Yasmine was so angry that she stopped talking. Sebastian waited for a while, "If you don't have anything more to say, I'm going to hang up."

"Wait-"

She said in a hurry, "If you ask them to return my wallet to me, I will listen to whatever you say."

Sebastian thought for a moment, "Alright then, pass the phone to Farley. I'll talk to her."

Yasmine didn't want to end their conversation so soon, so she held onto the phone a little longer and continued, "How are you doing these days? Did Claudine create any trouble recently?" "No, she's been behaving well recently, so I'm good."

"Is that true? You're not lying to me?"

"It's true. Well, I still have some matters to attend to later. Could you please pass the phone to Farley?"

Yasmine then handed her phone over to Farley. Farley took the phone and went downstairs. That night, Yasmine finally got back her wallet.

She began to think of ways to sneak out and make a call. She wanted to get rid of Farley, who was watching her like a hawk, in order to make a call to Lily Adams. To be honest, she did not believe what Sebastian had said. She had a feeling that he was hiding something from her.

She knew that Sebastian was concerned about her well- being since she was pregnant with their children. Flowever, as far as she knew, despite how concerned he was, he would not treat her like a prisoner, taking away her freedom.

Finally, she found an opportunity. On this day, the two servants received a notification to go to the housekeeping office to sign some contracts. After they left, Yasmine sneaked out of the house and went to a nearby shop to give Lily a call.

Fler heart was pounding. She was worried that Lily would bring her some bad news. She was in a dilemma. She wanted Lily to pick up the phone, but at the same time, she didn't want her to pick up the phone either.

While she was battling with her inner demons, the phone was connected, and she was met with a familiar voice. "Hello?"

"Lily, it's me, Yasmine." "Yasmine?" Lily was quite surprised. "Why are you using this number to call me? Where is your phone?"

"Something happened, but it's no big deal. I have a question for you. Have you seen Sebastian recently?"

Lily paused for a moment, "Yes, I saw him recently."

"Is he alright? Did anything happen to him?"

"No, he seems fine. What's wrong?"

Yasmine heaved a sigh of relief. "Nothing. I just had a hunch. I feel like he's hiding something from me..."

"Oh, stop overthinking. He's alright."

Lily answered her thoughtfully, but Yasmine didn't seem to sense it. "Well, if you say he's fine, then I'm relieved."

She huffed. "How have you been lately?"

"I'm good, as usual. What about you? Are you used to being there alone?"

"Ugh, let's not talk about that. I'd be lying if I said that I'm used to it. I will have to get used to being alone as much as I don't want to."

"Why? Vienna is such a lovely place! I don't even have a chance to go there."

Yasmine sighed. "It's hard to explain. What do you mean that you don't have a chance to come here? Has Scott limited your personal freedom again?"

"Yes, unfortunately. I regret marrying him now. I have no idea what hit me back then. How did I fall in love with him? Before we got married, I could do whatever I want. Now, no matter what I do, I have to get his approval. He bosses over me both at school and at home. I don't have any breathing space at all. Yasmine, I finally understand why people said that marriage is the grave of love. This sentence is actually reasonable. It makes sense now..."

Lily kept on venting nonstop. Yasmine laughed so hard that her stomach ached. She was just about to tease her when she heard a familiar bell ringing. Lily was about to have a class, and the two reluctantly ended the call.

By the time the servants got back from the housekeeping office, she was already sitting by the window of the bedroom, drawing a picture of a character with a pencil in her hand. She looked calm and composed.

The days passed by. Ever since she talked to Lily, Yasmine had been much more relaxed. However, she still could not understand why Sebastian had to restrict her freedom.
