The Seventh Miserable Bride novel Chapter 81

In fact, she guessed right.

Yasmine received a call from Scott while Sebastian was taking a shower in the bathroom. She asked under her breath, "What's the matter?"

"I'm outside your house. Come out and see me right now."

"I'm about to go to sleep. Let's talk tomorrow."

She hung up the phone, but Scott did not give up. He called again, "If you don't come out now, I will shout until you come out."

Hearing his voice, Yasmine sensed that something was wrong. He sounded as if he had had a lot to drink. She was afraid that he would really lose control and start shouting outside and in turn, alarm everyone in the house. So she said angrily, "Don't shout, I'll go down now."

She went to the gate in a hurry and saw Scott leaning against a street lamp. Sure enough, he had drunk a lot of wine, and she could smell the pungent smell of alcohol from afar.

"What do you want?"

she asked in a low voice and looked around nervously. If Sebastian saw Scott here for her in the middle of the night, he would be jealous again.

"I know it all."

"What do you know?" She looked at him with a scowl.

"Everything about you."

Yasmine's heart thumped and she said with a poker face, "I don't have time to waste. Go back now."

She turned around and was about to leave, but Scott grabbed her. "Why? Why must you choose him? If you want to take revenge, you can choose me, but why did you choose him?"

Yasmine was both shocked and angry. She pushed his hand away and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? There's no such thing!"

She wanted to escape, but Scott refused to let her go. "Don't hide it from me anymore. Why do you want to bear it alone, and not let me share your burden? You know, as long as you speak out, I'll do whatever you want without any complaints."

Slap...

Yasmine could not take it anymore and slapped him. She sobbed and said, "How many times do I have to tell you? I'll solve my own problems. Be it in the past or now, I've never thought of asking you to share my burdens, Jules."

Upon hearing her say those words with resolution, Scott finally let go. He looked so hurt. Yasmine sniffed and trotted away.

Lily witnessed the whole scene and tears filled the corners of her eyes. Scott stood there for a long time, and she accompanied him in secret the entire time. Although he did not look back at her once, she had already gotten used to it.

"Where did you go?" Sebastian had already come out of the shower and was lying on the bed watching TV.

Her eyes gleamed as she replied, "I went out to for a run."

"Did you eat too much?" Sebastian asked.

"A little bit."

"I'm sorry. I only wanted to stuff myself up, not you."

"It's okay. Instead of you being stuffed, I rather stuff myself up."

Sebastian burst into laughter and said, "Quickly take a shower. I'll wait for you."

"Why do you want to wait for me?" she asked, even though she knew the reason.

"Why else would I wait for you on the bed? Fynn disturbed us in the afternoon and I almost lost control and swore at his mother."

Yasmine said to him grumpily, "Don't be so wicked. He doesn't have a mother, yet you still want to swear at her? Are you even a human being?"

"That's why I held myself back."

In the middle of the night, Yasmine woke up thirsty. She was taking a gulp from the glass of water at the bedside table when she heard Sebastian talking in his dream, "Why did you betray me... Why did you leave me... Abigail... Why..."

Her relaxed mood suddenly became tense. After three years, he had finally accepted her feelings, but he still could not forget the woman's betrayal. Yasmine could not help but feel a little sad. She felt that she was hiding too much from Sebastian, so she became less and less confident that Sebastian could forgive her.

The next day, Yasmine struggled for a long time before she finally decided to go back to school. Although she would be awkward when facing Scott, it was the place she had been working for the past three years after all.

She believed that Scott would be able to draw a clear line between personal feelings and work.

Another school teacher went to France as her replacement. She did not regret giving up this opportunity at all because she had what she wanted. Having Sebastian's affection was more important than anything else.

During class, Lily came to her in submissively and said, "I'm sorry."

She knew why Lily apologized, so she glared at her angrily and said, "You've already told him. What's the use of apologizing now?"

"I just couldn't bear seeing him so sad. I thought that after I told him, he would feel better. Who would have known..."

"Who would have known that not only did he not feel better, but he also came to my house on impulse to look for me?"

"You saw me?" Lily was surprised.

"You were just standing behind him. I must be blind if I didn't see you."
