The Seventh Miserable Bride

Chapter 166

On the top floor of the hotel, Fynn Jaymond was holding a bottle of whiskey and chugging it down desperately. Sebastian Simons walked up to him and patted him on the shoulder. "Are you okay?"

He looked at Sebastian lifelessly. "I'm fine."

"There's no need to be sad for that woman. You should be glad that you discovered her dishonesty before getting married to her. You have avoided being a cuckold." Sebastian said.

"What's the difference between this and being a cuckold?"

Fynn laughed at himself mockingly.

"At least you won't experience this in the future. God knows how long you would continue to be in the dark if you didn't see her betrayal clearly today."

Two years of relationship ended just like this. Fynn's heart was aching terribly. From now on, he would no longer believe in love, and he would never give his heart to anyone easily ever again.

The supposedly sweet journey ended in haste because of Fynn's break- up. Fynn requested a month's leave from Sebastian after they returned. He needed time to sort out his messy mood and broken feelings.

However, Sebastian was swamped with work the moment Fynn took a break. He had to handle the things that he didn't even need to do before. This made him leave for work early every day and come home late every night. After he got home, he still had to work until midnight. Finally, Yasmine couldn't take it anymore.

"Do you know we haven't had dinner together for the past week?"

She stood in front of Sebastian's desk and complained to him.

Sebastian tapped relentlessly on his keyboard as he stared at the computer screen, "I've been very busy lately."

"Oh, you used to say that I'm more important than your work. It seems that it's all a lie."

He looked at her and asked calmly, "Are you complaining that I have neglected you?"

Yasmine rolled her eyes at him grumpily. "I'm not complaining that you've neglected me. I just can't bear to see you so tired."

"Fynn is on leave. As the president of the company, how could I not work hard?" Sebastian replied.

"Don't you have two beautiful secretaries to help you with your work?"

"They are just dealing with simple matters. Fynn was the one who was in charge of the company's confidential work. His work can't be handed over to others casually," he explained.

"Oh..."

Yasmine understood. Glancing at Sebastian's tired expression, she asked cautiously, "How about I help you out?" "You?" Sebastian laughed.

"Yes, don't underestimate me. I have learned business management and commercial planning by myself."

Sebastian paused, thinking about how Yasmine had dealt with Henry Taylor a long time ago. He thought that she was good in business and he could not help but agree, "Sounds like a good idea. If you feel bored at home, you can help me with my work."

In fact, Sebastian had a selfish intention. He wanted Yasmine by his side even at his work. That way, he would be able to see her even more often.

Yasmine's learning ability turned out to be completely beyond his imagination. It only took her half a day to figure out the operation process.

Tiffany Simons soon knew about what had happened between Fynn and Willow. She came to the company in a hurry. When she saw Yasmine, she asked, "Yasmine, where is Fynn?"

Yasmine shook her head. "I only know that he's on vacation, but I don't know where he is exactly."

Tiffany frowned. "Why didn't you bring me with you that day?"

"The plan wouldn't have gone smoothly if you were there too," Yasmine said.

"I wouldn't ruin it."

Yasmine was busy with her work. She replied distractedly, "It's all in the past. Just forget it."

"Do you know where is Fynn?" Tiffany continued asking. "I really don't know. Don't you think I would tell you if I knew?" Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Seeing that Yasmine didn't seem to be lying, Tiffany raised her chin, "I'm going to ask my brother. He must know."

She went to the president's office and asked pitifully, "Brother, where did Fynn go?"

Sebastian did not even spare her a glance. He said firmly, "I don't know."

"Impossible! How could you not know? You don't want to tell me, do you?"

Tiffany glared at him angrily.

"How would I know? I can't read his mind, can I?" Sebastian said.

"Well, I believe he would at least tell you where he was going!" Tiffany argued.

Sebastian sighed, "He is an adult, and he has his own life. He won't tell me everything. You are still in college, so you should focus on your studies. Stop thinking about him all day."

No matter how hard Tiffany begged him, Sebastian insisted that he didn't know. She never got the answer and she even got nagged in return.

When Yasmine saw her sister-in-law walking out of Sebastian's office filled with disappointment, she walked over to her and asked, "What's wrong? Didn't you ask him?"

Tiffany nodded in tears, "Well, he didn't tell me, but I could see from his eyes that he obviously knows..."

Yasmine took a deep breath and comforted her. "You should head home first. Leave this to me."

"Yasmine, could you please help me?" Tiffany pleaded.

"I'll find out for you if he knows."

Tiffany returned home with gratitude. Yasmine went to the president's office with a stack of documents and threw them on the table. "When will Fynn come back?"

"What's wrong?"

Sebastian raised his eyes and looked at her in confusion.

"I'm so tired, but I'm not being paid. I'm just free labor," Yasmine complained.

Sebastian laughed and said, "How long have you been here? Has it even been three days?"

"What do you mean not even three days? It will be exactly three days at five o'clock later today," she said.

"How about this, I'll pay you ten times of Fynn's salary."

Yasmine nodded, "Great, but you have to tell me where Fynn had gone to and when he'll be back. That way, I'll be able to keep it in mind."

"He went to Lynbrook. He will be back in about half a month." Sebastian replied.

"Oh, I see."

Yasmine turned around and walked out. All of a sudden, she turned around, as if she had thought of something, "Lend me your phone." "Why?" Sebastian asked.

"Just to make a phone call. My phone is out of battery," she answered.

"Can't you use the landline?"

"Can't I just use your phone? Are there any secrets in your phone that I can't know?" Yasmine questioned.

Sebastian handed the phone to her, "You can investigate at your will."

Yasmine took the phone and walked out of the office quickly. She went through the phone's contacts a few times before she found Fynn's second phone number. She took out a pen and wrote it down.

The Simons family was in chaos that night. Tiffany left a note and ran away from home.

As soon as Sebastian saw the message on it, he turned around and asked Yasmine, "Did you tell her?"

Yasmine nodded guiltily. "Yes."

"Follow me."

Sebastian took her hand roughly and went upstairs angrily. After closing the door, he growled in a low voice, "Who asked you to tell her?"

"No one asked me to tell her. I wanted to tell her myself." Yasmine said.

"What's wrong with you? You knew that Fynn doesn't like her, but you still allowed her to look for him?"

"We must fight for love. Fynn is at his most vulnerable now. It's a good opportunity for Tiffany to get close to him." Yasmine refused to back down.

"Do you think everyone behaves the same way as I do, easily allowing others into their heart whenever they get hurt?"

Yasmine's eyes widened in shock and she raised her head. "Why? Do you regret it?"

"I don't regret it. It's just that Tiffany is different from you. You are strong and tough, but she's not. Her life is constantly in danger. If you let her meet Fynn, she would be tremendously hurt if Fynn said anything harsh to her!" Sebastian said angrily.

"Love can't be controlled. Since Tiffany knew that Fynn and Willow have broken up, it's only a matter of time before she does something about it. You can stop her today, but can you stop her tomorrow?" she questioned.

"I would try my best to stop her," Sebastian answered.

"You are just deceiving yourself. You are not confident in your sister. If I were you, I would not let Tiffany run from her heart. I will encourage her to pursue true love bravely. As long as she tries her best, even if she fails, she will still be the bravest!"

"Yes, so it's thanks to you that Tiffany left home," he sighed.

"You will be grateful when the two of them get married in the future!" she argued.

"Well, that day must come to begin with!"

When Tiffany arrived at Lynbrook, she immediately called Fynn. When she heard the familiar voice, she said excitedly, "Fynn, I'm here in Lynbrook. Could you pick me up?"

Fynn was stunned. Fie said angrily, "What are you doing here?"

"I'm here to see you. I'm at the airport now. I'm not familiar with this place, so you must come to pick me up. See you later."

Before Fynn could continue, Tiffany hung up the phone, not giving him any chance to refuse.

FHalf an hour later, she saw Fynn getting out of the tax. She immediately ran to him and hugged him. She said, "I knew you would come. Fynn, are you alright?"

Fynn pushed her away coldly, "There is another flight back in the afternoon. Go home."

Upon hearing that, Tiffany squatted on the ground, "I don't want to go back, I came all the way here just to look for you. I'm not going to leave just after seeing you for a while!"

"Then what else do you want to do?"

There was a hint of anger in Fynn's voice.

"I have something to tell you!" Tiffany said.

Fie pulled her up and said, "Well, let's find a place to talk. You can go back after that."

The two went to a cafe. Fynn spoke with a dark face, "Tell me, I'm listening."

"I know about you and Willow," she said.

"So?" he asked. "Don't be sad. She's not worth it!"

"I'm not sad."

"Be with me. I won't betray you!" Tiffany pleaded.

Fynn sneered, "Do you think that love is so casual that I can be with anyone? Then what's the difference between me and Willow?"

"I've liked you for a long time. Don't you know that?" Tiffany said sadly.

"But I..."

Fynn was about to say that he didn't feel the same way as Tiffany, but he remembered that Tiffany couldn't handle being aggravated, so he changed his words and said, "I just broke up and I'm not ready to be in a new relationship."

Tiffany grinned, "It doesn't matter. I can wait for you no matter how long it takes."

After a short silence, Fynn said helplessly, "Tiffany, don't wait for me. You are still young and you have not met any men. When you grow up and meet more people, you will find that there are better men than me."
