The Seventh Miserable Bride

Chapter 151

Leighton Lind pulled the tape off Yasmine Taylor's mouth without hesitation. Yasmine begged him through her tears, "Leighton, please don't touch me. I'm begging you, okay?"

Leighton glanced at the door behind him and nodded. "Don't cry, Yasmine. I won't bully you."

He turned over and sat up, walked to the door, and opened it. Outside the door, Richie Lind and his wife were listening attentively. Suddenly, they saw their son walking out of the room and they asked in surprise, "Son, why did you come out?"

"Mom, go to sleep. I know how to have sex with a woman now."

Madam Lind looked her son up and down suspiciously. "What do you mean? Are you embarrassed that your father and I are here?"

Leighton nodded with a flushed face. "Well... yes"

Haha. Richie burst into laughter. "My son has really grown up. He actually knows to be embarrassed now."

Madam Lind was also very happy. She patted her son on the shoulder and said, "Well, we'll go to sleep now. Don't let your father and I down. You must have sex with her tonight, do you understand?"

"Okay, Mom."

"Her medicine will only last for five hours. It's been an hour already, so you must not waste the remaining four hours."

Leighton nodded again. Madam Lind breathed a sigh of relief and said to her husband, "Let's go and have a rest. We've been doing this forever. I'm really tired."

Watching his parents go upstairs tiredly, Leighton hurried back to the room. He walked to the bedside and said to Yasmine, "My parents just left."

Tears were still rolling down her cheeks uncontrollably. However, they were no longer tears of desperation, but of relief, which was a comfort to Leighton.

"Yasmine, stop crying. I won't bully you anymore. Please don't cry."

When he saw that she was still crying, Leighton couldn't help but panic. He used his arms to wipe her tears.

"Leighton, thank you."

Yasmine sniffed and thanked him with a choked voice. Leighton smiled innocently and said, "You don't have to thank me..."

"Why don't you pull the camera off the wall?"

Leighton looked at the wall and immediately agreed, "Okay."

He walked over and pulled down the flashing camera. He threw it on the ground and crushed it with his feet.

After he crushed it, he sat on the bed again and asked in a low voice, "Yasmine, is my father a bad guy?" "Yes, your father is a bad person, a very bad person, so Leighton, you must remember not to be like your father!"

Leighton nodded, not really understanding her words. "Okay, I'll listen to you, Yasmine."

"Could you get me my phone? I want to call someone to save me."

At this moment, Leighton was Yasmine's only hope. Since Richie was resting upstairs, she must seize the opportunity to escape. Otherwise, once he woke up, her window of opportunity would've been gone.

"Where is your cell phone?" NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.

"It's in the pocket of my coat."

Leighton touched Yasmine's clothes and shook his head. "I can't find it."

"What about my car keys?"

"No, nothing."

She closed her eyes painfully. The treacherous couple took her mobile phone and car keys away.

Seeing that she was about to cry again, Leighton said in a hurry, "Yasmine, don't cry. My mother said that the effect of the drug will wear off in four hours."

She suddenly opened her eyes. "Will I be able to move in another four hours?"

"That should be the case."

She took a deep breath and said, "Well, Leighton, could you do me a favor then?"

"How could I help?" "Later, after your parents have fallen asleep, could you steal my mobile phone and car keys for me?"

Leighton was a little nervous. "What if I get caught?"

"Be careful. Everything should be in the pocket of your father's clothes. I believe you, you can do it."

Yasmine looked at him with certainty. After some brief hesitation, Leighton finally agreed. "Okay, Yasmine, I'll help you."

As time went by, Yasmine eagerly hoped for the effect of the drug in her body to wear off as soon as possible. Her legs must work if she wanted to escape from this evil cave.

"Yasmine, my father must be fast asleep now. I'm going to steal it for you, okay?"

"Okay."

Yasmine nodded gratefully. She could feel her nerves fluttering.

Leighton crept upstairs and arrived at the door to his parents' bedroom. He opened the door quietly. When he saw that the room was dark, he was sure that his parents had fallen asleep.

Richie's clothes were on the sofa, and Leighton slipped into the room. He squatted beside the sofa and reached out to touch everything randomly. Unexpectedly, he actually found Yasmine's mobile phone and car keys. He felt a burst of joy in his heart. He took the things and ran away.

"Yasmine, Yasmine, I got it, I got it..."

Leighton held the key and cell phone in his hands, excited. The drug effects on Yasmine had worn off. When Leighton came back, she had already put on her clothes. She took the things with gratitude. "Leighton, thank you, thank you so much."

Without a moment to spare, she took the car keys and ran out. Leighton followed closely behind her and stopped beside her car outside. Yasmine was about to open the door when she heard a disappointed voice behind her, "Yasmine, from now on, I won't see you again, will I?"

Her hand froze mid-air as she turned around slowly. When she saw Leighton's tearful face, she felt sad. She walked over to him and wanted to speak, but she didn't know what to say.

Richie had done despicable things to her today, so she would no longer have any sort of relationship with this family. But Leighton was a child whose behavior could melt one's heart. How was she supposed to tell him that from then on, she would have nothing to do with his family anymore.

"Hurry up. If my father wakes up, he will tie you up again."

Leighton wiped his tears with his sleeves. It seemed that in an instant, he had grown up. Unlike before, he did not pester Yasmine to stay.

Yasmine gritted her teeth but did not say anything in the end. She rushed to her car, opened the door, and sat inside. When she was ready to start the engine, she saw Leighton squatting on the ground crying like an abandoned child. She felt an inexplicably sharp pain in her heart. She pushed the door open and jumped out. She reached out to hug Leighton and said with tears in her eyes, "I will never forget your help today. Leighton, thank you. Take care!" She stared at him for a moment, kissed him on his forehead, got up and returned to the car. Then, she started the engine and left.

This time, she really left.

Through the rearview mirror of the car, she saw Leighton waving his arms at her. Tears of distress rushed out of her eyes. He deserved that kiss, and she would never forget his kindness. Goodbye, Leighton.

Yasmine rushed back to B City through the night. Sebastian Simons was very surprised by her return early the next morning. "Yasmine, why are you back at this time of the day?"

She did not say anything. She threw herself into his arms and cried bitterly.

"What happened?"

Sebastian's body froze and he asked worriedly.

She shook her head and said, "It's nothing. I just missed you."

Even though she felt extremely wronged and resentful, she did not disclose to Sebastian what Richie had done to her. It was not that she was afraid of Richie, nor was she grateful to him. However, she knew Sebastian's temper too well. If she told him what had happened, he would definitely make Richie and his family die miserably. She did not care whether Richie and his wife died or not, but she cared about the innocent Leighton. If that poor child lost his parents, how would he survive in this complicated and chaotic world?

Yasmine was very depressed for the next two days. She was already distressed when she learnt that she was infertile. After that, she still had to endure the humiliation Richie had put her through. Although Leighton did not take advantage of her body, the humiliation of being stripped naked and slapped across her face still cast a shadow in her heart.

When Madam Simons saw how upset her daughter-in- law was, she knew that Yasmine was worried about her infertility. She recalled what Adiana had said that day. The possibility of her conceiving would deteriorate even more if she was in bad mood. Therefore, Madam Simons decided to take her daughter-in-law out to relieve her stress.

That evening after dinner, Madam Simons asked Yasmine to stay in the living room and said kindly, "Yasmine, will you accompany me to a banquet tomorrow?"

"What banquet?"

Yasmine asked in a low voice.

"It's the chairman of Elegens Corporation's birthday party."

"Can't you ask Dad to go with you?"

Yasmine didn't feel like going.

"Your father has a social event to attend to tomorrow, so we won't be able to go together."

"What about Tiffany?"

"Definitely not Tiffany. She has a ping- pong tournament at school. I've not seen her for a few days already. She's always either out early or back late."

Yasmine was a little reluctant and did not want to go, but it was not polite to refuse her mother-in- law. When Madam Simons saw that Yasmine did not speak, she could guess Yasmine's thoughts. Madam Simons smiled and asked, "Don't you want to go?"

"Mom, I..."

"Alright, then that's settled. Let's go together. You've been bored at home all day long, and you'll get sick if you continue on this way. It would be good for your fertility if you go out and relax."

At the mention of her fertility, Yasmine's eyes darkened. "Mom, I'm sorry. I am unable to fulfill your wish of having your own grandchildren."

Madam Simons patted the back of her hand. "It doesn't matter. Didn't I already tell you that? No matter what, you are the daughter- in- law of the Simons family. I won't blame you for anything."

"Yes, thank you, Mom..."

"But you can't give up on yourself. I expect a lot from my daughter-in-law."

"Okay."

"So what about tomorrow's banquet?"

"I'll go."

Madam Simons smiled with satisfaction when Yasmine agreed.

The next morning, Yasmine got up and pulled Sebastian up with her. Then, she walked to the wardrobe and said to him, "Help me pick an outfit."

Sebastian was still sleepy. He asked, "Why do you want me to pick your outfit?"

"I'm going to a banquet with Mom today, so I need to dress well."

Sebastian immediately became awake when he heard that she was about to go out. He raised her slender fingers and examined the row of clothes. "This one."

The dress he picked was a long dark green dress. It was simple and did not have much accessories, save for a black belt around the waist.
