The Seventh Miserable Bride novel Chapter 25

Seeing Yasmine frozen to the ground, Sebastian frowned and asked. "What's wrong?"

"Well... I think... if you are really busy, why don't you go home first..."

In order to avoid any misunderstanding, Yasmine forced the words out of her mouth, knowing Sebastian would throw a fit after he heard that.

As expected. "Are you kidding me?" Sebastian whispered to her under her breath angrily.

"No, definitely not. I just don't want to force you into something you don't like." Yasmine quickly explained.

"It's okay. As much as I do not like these events, I hate doing things halfway more."

Sebastian insisted and walked them straight into the hall. The scene was set. Yasmin had no other options but to brace herself for the worst.

A group of colleagues surrounded them as they walked in. Yasmine could feel a glare penetrating her from afar, and trembled, hiding behind Sebastian to avoid being spotted.

Sadly, it was in vain. Scott Jules was in total shock. His fine face was full of doubt. Instead of confronting Yasmine, he grabbed her best friend and asked in a low, anguish tone, "Why is Yasmine here with Sebastian Simons?"

Lily Adams was in anguish. Out of all the people here, why did he have to ask her? It was not even a difficult question to answer. Anyone would know about their grand wedding.

"Um, Principal Jules, do you know Mr. Simons as well?"

She faked a smile and asked idiotically. Everyone in City B knew who Sebastian Simons was. Apart from his distinguished family background, he was also well-known for his impressive marital history.

"What do you think?"

Scott replied, waiting for her answer.

Lily continued to laugh, but her laugh gradually faltered. "Well, you could probably guess it by now. This is the school's anniversary party. People who come in pairs are of course..." She really couldn't bring herself to say the phrase "a married couple".

Scott was getting more anxious by the minute. Granted, Lily made herself very clear but he couldn't accept what she said. This was too absurd. It was impossible. "Tell me everything!" He demanded.
