The Seventh Miserable Bride novel Chapter 38

As Yasmine Taylor was going downstairs, she bumped into her father, Henry Taylor. When he saw his daughter, he smiled and said, "Yasmine, you're back."

"Yes," she said blankly.

"How have you been, staying at your parents- inlaw's?" he asked.

"Good," she replied.

"How about work? Is everything going well?" he asked again.

"Yes," she answered.

It was really rare. For the first time, her father cared so much about her. However, it had nothing to do with a family affection, only personal benefit.

Sure enough, as soon as she walked to the center of the living room, her father got to the point and said, "I heard that Simons Corporation has a project available for bidding recently, and our company is preparing to bid. I was wondering..."

"I have no idea about business. If there's anything you want to know, you can ask Sebastian Simons directly," she said indifferently.

Henry's expression froze and he changed the topic awkwardly. "Dorothy, is dinner ready?"

"Yes. It's rare for Young Madam to come back. How dare I not serve her well?" Dorothy glared at her husband.

"Sister, I've packed up. Let's go."

Linda Taylor ran downstairs happily with her suitcase in her hands. The couple asked in surprise, "Where are you going?"

"To sister's house, for a few days," Linda replied.

Yasmine stared at her large luggage and was speechless. Was she planning to stay for a few days or a few years?

"Oh, it's good to stay there for a few days. Otherwise, you both might drift apart." Ha. Since when were they close?

"Have dinner before you leave."

Dorothy dragged her daughter into the kitchen. After a while, they came out and ordered the servants to serve the dishes. When Linda thought of being able to see her sweetheart soon, she was so excited she could not bear waiting for another minute. She hurriedly ate a few mouthfuls of food and then urged Yasmine to depart.

When they arrived at Mansion House, Yasmine warned Linda before entering, "Mind your manners. Otherwise, I won't be nice."

"Got it. Let's go in," Linda said hurriedly.

The two of them walked into the living room side by side. When Madam Simons saw her daughter- inlaw, she was naturally happy. Seeing the girl beside her, she got up and asked, "Who is this?"

"Mom, this is my sister, Linda Taylor," Yasmine introduced. "Hello, aunt. I've been wanting to see you for a long time. You look much more elegant and kind than I imagined..."

Linda chimed in eagerly. Madam nodded with a smile, "Welcome, make yourself at home. You can stay for as long as you like."

Yasmine looked up and sighed.

The three of them sat in the living room and chatted with one another for a while. Linda looked around and finally could not help but ask, "Where is my brother-in-law?"

"He has a social occasion tonight,"

Yasmine replied calmly. In fact, she was very clear that Sebastian was Linda's ultimate target.

"Oh, I see." Linda deliberately yawned, and Madam immediately said, "Yasmine, take your sister to rest. She seems to be sleepy."

"Okay, Mom," Yasmine agreed.

Walking upstairs, Linda muttered to herself grumpily, "Blah! That b*tch calling her 'Mom' as if she really got a biological mother. How disgusting and cheesy."

"You can sleep in this room."

Yasmine opened the door of the guest room and brought her luggage in. "The bathroom is over there. You can take a shower first. Go downstairs for breakfast at 7:30 a.m sharp. Don't make everyone wait for you," Yasmine commanded.

After giving Linda all the necessary instructions, she was about to leave when Linda grabbed her arm and said, "Sister, don't you want to show me your bridal chamber?"

Yasmine was taken aback for a moment, then nodded calmly and said, "Yes, I can, but..."

"But what?" Linda interrupted.

"You should take a shower. Your brother-in-law is a clean freak. He won't be happy if he comes back later and finds you giving off a smell," Yasmine said.

Linda smelled herself and grumbled gloomily, "Alright."

As soon as Linda grabbed her clean clothes and walked into the bathroom, Yasmine immediately went into the next room and locked the door. Then, she quickly brought her clothes and daily necessities back to the main room and removed the drawing. After doing all this, she took out her mobile phone and called Sebastian Simons, wanting to inform him in advance, so that he would not come back suddenly and accidentally expose her lies.

"Sorry, the number you have dialed is unreachable. Please try later..."

No way, unreachable? Yasmine's heart tightened and she tried again, but it still could not get through. She was starting to get anxious. According to her understanding of Sebastian, if she did not come up with a plan with him in advance, he would not cooperate with her like a puppet on a string.

Linda lay in the bathtub and closed her eyes, thinking about her mother's warning before leaving. "Remember to carefully observe whether the cunning woman is treated as well as the last time when she came back. I have always thought that she might be acting. Rumors of Sebastian being a strange man have been around for a long time. How could it be possible that the cunning woman subdued him as soon as they got married..."
