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." This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
"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."
"Then you will forgive me, right?"
Yasmine sighed and said grumpily, "I'd like to see if you're planning to just keep watching him from a distance and not let him know."
After work, the two of them went out of the school together. Lily suggested, "Let me treat you to dinner, as a way of asking for your forgiveness?"
She nodded and said, "Okay, if I don't let you bleed a little, you won't know how ruthless I am."
Yasmine picked a very expensive restaurant and ordered a table of very expensive food. Lily felt pain all over her body. She gnashed her teeth and said, "The most vicious thing is a woman's heart.
What kind of evil have I done to deserve a friend like you."
She snorted and said, "I often say the same when I am with Sebastian."
"Start eating. If you don't finish everything today, I won't let you go."
Yasmine nodded. "Don't worry. I'll finish them all. Let me go to the washroom first."
She got up and walked towards the direction of the washroom. Surprisingly, she met Linda Taylor in the washroom.
"Aren't you... aren't you supposed to be in France?"
Linda looked at her in shock. The next second, her face looked as stinky as sh*t.
Yasmine really felt depressed. Why did she always encounter people she did not want to meet every time she came out for dinner? Last time, she met Richie Lind when she was having dinner with her whole family. Yesterday, she met Scott when she was having dinner with Sebastian. Today, she met Linda. Her life was such a tragedy, she could not live any longer. "Yes, I went there and came back."
"What do you mean?"
"I only promised you to leave, and I didn't promise you that I would never come back right?"
"You... you..."
Linda was so angry that she started blabbering. She pointed at her and said, "You asked for it. Just you wait!"
She went home angrily and rushed into her room. When she opened the drawer, she found that the recording pen was gone. Soon, there was an earth-shattering roar from the villa of the Taylor
family...
"Dad, mom, was the vixen, Yasmine, back here?"
She ran downstairs hysterically to question her parents.
Dorothy Ryles shook her head in confusion. "No, what happened?"
"My recording pen is missing. Who took it away?"
Henry Taylor picked up the newspaper at the table with a guilty conscience and read it while saying, "Where did you put it? No one came over recently."
"Impossible! I remember clearly that I put it in the drawer in my room. Ah! I don't want to live anymore,
I don't want to..."
She sat on the ground and cried loudly. She had been planning on how to approach Sebastian these two days. But now, Yasmine had inexplicably come back, and the recording pen that Linda could use to control her had disappeared. How could she bear such a blow? She almost had everything under her control, but suddenly the recording pen vanished.
Seeing her daughter crying so sadly, Dorothy panicked and began comforting her, "Don't cry, don't cry, I'll help you look for it again." Then she ran upstairs to help her daughter.
The more Linda cried, the more tired she felt. The more she thought about it, the more unwilling she was. She stood up abruptly and rushed out of the house without looking back.
She drove all the way to Simons Corporation and rushed into Sebastian's office. Sebastian was about to pack up his things and go home when he saw her rushing in. He raised his eyebrows
unhappily and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Brother-in-law, I have something to tell you."
She walked up to him with her red nose and wiped her tears with the grievance.
"What about?" Sebastian asked.
"My sister lied to you. The reason why she married you was not as simple as you think. She just wanted to take revenge on my parents. She is a bad woman."
Sebastian was stunned for a moment, then sneered with disdain, "Do you think I will believe your words?"
"You must believe what I said because what I said is true. I'm not lying to you. In this world, I'm the only person who won't lie to you."
"Don't you think that you're disgusting?"
Sebastian glared at her disgustedly and said, "Get out of here right now. I don't want to hear your nonsense."
"Brother-in-law, why don't you believe me? Yasmine is really a liar. She had an engagement with a fool ten years ago. Once you help her destroy our family, she will leave you and go back into the fool's arms!"
"Oh, can you make up a more realistic story? Am I comparable with a fool? Yasmine will leave me and go into a fool's arms? Haha, it's so funny."
Linda saw that he did not believe her at all, so she stomped her feet desperately and angrily. "I'm telling the truth. I have evidence, but it's..."
"What happened to the evidence?"
"It's gone..."
Oh, Sebastian sneered again and said, "In the past, I've only heard that Henry Taylor's youngest daughter is really good at creating troubles. But, I finally see it for myself today."
