The Seventh Miserable Bride novel Chapter 79

After dinner, Tiffany suggested, "Yasmine, let's play cards."

Yasmine agreed without hesitation, "Sure."

She turned her head and asked Sebastian, "Do you want to play?"

Sebastian glared at her grumpily and said, "Do you think I will play a children's game?"

"What do you mean, a children's game? Dad and mom are playing too. Are you saying that dad and mom are children?"

He raised his eyebrows and said, "Time is gold for me. One minute is worth ten million. I won't waste my time playing these boring games with you all."

Yasmine snorted and said, "If you don't want to play, suit yourself. You don't have to boast."

Yasmine said to her sister-in-law, "He doesn't want to join. So let's play."

Sebastian went upstairs. Yasmine sat at the marble table in the living room with her sister-in-law and her parents-in-law, and they started playing. She seldom played this game so, naturally, she was not skillful. After having played for a few hours, she lost many rounds.

Beep, beep. Her mobile phone showed a text message notification. She glanced at it: "Have you lost all your money in the game? Come back to sleep if you've lost everything." "How did you know?"

She quickly replied. She put all the blame on Sebastian, thinking that he must have been cursing her. That was why she lost so much money.

Losing money was not a big deal. The key was that her mother- in- law was getting more and more excited. Looking at her daughter and daughter- inlaw yawning, she said, "All of you, wake up! I'll let you go to sleep when you win all my money."

Yasmine was so worried. Madam Simons was an expert at playing cards. Wanting to win Madam Simons' money was like squeezing water from stone; it was impossible.

It did not matter to her sister-in-law, because she liked playing cards, though she had been losing the whole time.

"It's because you're so stupid that you don't even know how to swim. How could I not know whether you're losing or not?" Sebastian replied to her text.

"I'm stupid just because I can't swim? I have a lot of strengths that you don't know about."

Sebastian sent a mocking expression and said, "What else can you do except reading and teaching? You silly."

"Only fools fall in love with silly people."

Titus Simons could not open his eyes since long ago. Seeing that Yasmine kept sending text messages, he could not help but protest, "Let's focus on winning her money so we can finally get some rest."

Yasmine scratched her head awkwardly. "Oh no, don't count on me to get sleep tonight."

Mila heard this and got even more excited. She laughed and said, "It seems that I am invincible in this family. Next time let's not gamble money. But whoever loses must be obedient and do whatever the winner says."

Tiffany retorted grumpily, "Even if we didn't gamble with money, who in this house dares to go against you?"

"Your brother, does he listen to me?"

"He's not a human being. He's an alien from Mars."

Yasmine could not help but laugh and sent a text message to Sebastian: "Your sister said that you came from Mars."

"Are you playing cards or speaking ill of me? I'll give you five minutes to come back to sleep," he texted back.

She sent an aggrieved expression. "It's not that I don't want to go to sleep. I actually really want to sleep. But mom said that whoever doesn't win her money cannot leave. I can't do anything about it."

After a while, the clock on the wall struck twelve. Yasmine had already owed Madam Simons a lot of money when Sebastian came down.

He walked to Yasmine casually, pulled a chair and sat down. Yasmine asked doubtfully, "Ten million dollars a minute. Can you waste your time like this?"

"Concentrate on playing your cards."

He said this to her and then looked at his sister. "And you, too. Focus." Yasmine was quite focused at first, but when Sebastian sat next to her, she could not concentrate anymore. She simply played the cards in her hand. Looking at the cards, Sebastian could not help but touch his forehead and sighed. He whispered in her ear, "With your skill, you will lose all my property very soon."

"You should play if you think you're better,"

Yasmine complained depressedly, and she played even worse.

"Hey, brat, your wife owes me a lot of money. Can you pay it back for her?"

Mila glanced at her son and raised her eyebrows proudly.

Sebastian took out a stack of cash from his wallet and asked, "Is this enough?"

"Almost."

After one round, Sebastian patted Yasmine on the shoulder and said, "You, come here."

"What's the matter?"

Yasmine was a little confused and did not quite understand what he meant.

"Let me show you how a master plays."

Ah, she sneered and said, "A master you said. You lost your wife to someone else."

When the family heard her words, they was stunned at first and then asked, "When did you lose your wife to someone else?"

Sebastian replied grumpily, "I did it on purpose okay?" "Oh, okay."

They did not dare to question further after hearing his reply. Sebastian started to play with his parents on behalf of Yasmine. Yasmine did not expect that Sebastian would win the first round.

Thereafter, he won the second and third rounds. Except for Mila, everyone else was very happy because they could go to sleep soon.
