The Seventh Miserable Bride
Chapter 61

When Sebastian returned home in the evening, he pretended to ask Yasmine casually, "Where did you go today?"

"I went to see a distant relative. You called me, right?"

Sebastian was a little surprised. He did not expect Yasmine to tell him frankly, "Yes, I did. He said I called the wrong number."

"I was in the washroom at that time. He was asking money from me and I refused to lend it to him, so he was a little angry and said that to you." "Oh, I see."

Sebastian breathed a sigh of relief and smiled gently at her. "I was really worried that you would lie to me. You know, I hate people lying to me the most."

"How could I?"

He patted her on the shoulder and said earnestly, "I don't see you as an outsider anymore, so remember, don't lie to me about anything, or I will be very disappointed." "Okay."

After a close save, Yasmine did not relax but felt worse. She felt that the existence of Richie Lind would be a threat to her relationship with Sebastian Simons.

That night, Yasmine stood in front of the window for the entire night. After careful consideration, she made a decision before dawn.

She did not want to live in the dark anymore. She wanted to save herself, and also Sebastian.

After breakfast, she went to her mother's cemetery and put a bouquet of lilies in front of her mother's gravestone. Lilies were her mother's favorite flowers when she was still alive. Back in the days, Henry Taylo captured her mother's heart with a carriage full of lilies, which led to her miserable life.

"Mom, I'm here today to ask for your forgiveness. Please forgive me, because this is the first time I wish to give up on avenging you, because of a man...'

Yasmine knelt down and caressed her mother's photo. "You must be very disappointed in me. How can I be so selfish? I forgot the pain that you experienced because of a man. I'm sorry, mom. I'm really sorry. really can't use that man to achieve my goal anymore. Perhaps he was my nemesis from the beginning. I told myself time and again to make him fully trust me, and then use him to destroy Henry Taylor. But I haven't been able to do that, because he's just like me. His heart has been hurt so deep and I can't bring myself to hurt him..."

Yasmine could not control her tears. She had always wanted to avenge her mother's hardship ever since she was a child. She had planned for many years to achieve her goal, but now she wanted to give up. I was not just unacceptable by her mother, but she also could not forgive herself.

She never understood why her mother loved her father. But that day, Sebastian told her, "Because I'm not a normal person, so I hope you can live normally." When he said this, she understood her mother. Love had always come quietly. Love needed no reason. Even though there would be hurt, one would still run towards it.

Yasmine got up and left. Her firm back showed that she wanted to be brave for the first time in 24 years. She wanted to live a different life, walk a different path, and do different things for herself. After that, she went to a cake shop and ordered a cake for Sebastian. Although she had not been in a good mood since last night, she still remembered that it was Sebastian's birthday today. After ordering the cake, she went to a nearby shopping mall and planned to buy a gift for him.

On the way home, she made up her mind that she would confess everything to Sebastian tonight. She wanted to tell him about her initial purpose, and the feelings she had for him.

Titus Simons and Madam Simons also went out early in the morning. When Yasmine arrived home, there was no one at home. She asked the bulter, "Uncle Alfred, where are Old Master and Madam?" He replied respectfully, "The Old Master and Madam have gone to attend the funeral of the Lexus Corporation's Chairman. They will probably be back in the afternoon."

"Oh, okay."

She nodded and went upstairs. When she was in her room, she took out her mobile phone and sent a text message, "What time will you be back in the afternoon?"

Sebastian replied briefly, "Is there anything?"

"Of course."

"What is it?"

"It's a secret for the time being."

He sent a speechless expression with three words, "Try your best."

After that, Yasmine was very nervous. She did not know if Sebastian would forgive her for the initial purpose she had when she married him. More importantly, she was not sure if he had feelings for her. At four o'clock in the afternoon, she went to the cake shop. The cake was ready, and the word 'LOVE' was written on the icing. If Sebastian wanted to, he would understand her feelings.

The cake was settled and the gift was also ready. She returned to the Mansion House with a complex feeling. Her parents- in- law were not back yet, neither was her sister-in-law nor Sebastian.

She waited in the living room for a while and felt a little bored. Then, she went into the kitchen and wanted to prepare dinner for everyone. She had not been in the kitchen ever since she got married to Sebastian. It was not that she was lazy or she did not know how to cook, but her mother-in-law did not allow her to.

Her mother-in-law said that the daughter-in-law of the Simons family's was to be treated with care, so she had always been in the same position as her sister-in-law in this family. "Young Madam, you'd better go out and leave it to us."

When the two servants who were in charge of cooking saw Yasmine wearing an apron while cutting and washing vegetables, they were so nervous that they were at loss.

"It's fine. I'll let you both take a leave tonight. Go and take a rest."

"That won't do. If Madam Simons finds out, we'll be scolded..."

"Don't worry, I'll explain it to her. It has nothing to do with both of you, I insist to cook myself."

The servants saw that she had made up her mind and there was nothing they could do about it. They had no choice but to let her do whatever she wanted to do.

If Yasmine was a treasure in Simons' house, then she was definitely the opposite in her own house. In Simons' house, she was served by servants three meals a day. In her own house, she had to serve the whole family.

The servants could not believe that she was so good and skilled at cooking. In less than an hour, she had finished making a lavish dinner with the perfect combination of color, aroma, and taste.

After hearing the servant's report, the butler, Uncle Alfred, hurried into the living room. He glanced at the cake on the table and said to Yasmine, "Young Madam, Young Master, he..." Before he could finish his words, the family came back together. It looked as if Titus Simons, Madam Simons, Tiffany Simons, and Sebastian Simons had planned it out. "Mom and dad, you're back."

Yasmine greeted them and took the jacket from Madam Simons.

"Yes, I'm so tired."

Titus Simons sniffed and said, "Smells good. Is dinner ready?"

"Yes, dad."

Yasmine smiled and nodded. She glanced at Sebastian and said, "I have personally cooked to celebrate Sebastian's birthday."

Her words stunned everyone. Tiffany rushed to her and whispered, "Didn't I tell you about it? Why are you still doing this?"

"What did you tell me?" Yasmine was a little confused.

Tiffany patted her head and said, "I wanted to tell you that day, but you left before I could finish!"

"What's wrong?"

Her brows were tightly furrowed, and she had a bad feeling about it.

Sebastian suddenly stood up and walked to the dining table. He picked up the cake on the table and threw it on the floor. In the end, he did not see what was written on the cake. "What are you doing? Are you crazy?"

She was so angry that she rushed over and pushed him. She looked at the cake which was trampled by him. "Didn't I tell you that I don't celebrate my birthday? Why are you always so self-righteous?" Sebastian seemed to be more angry than her. "Can you consult others before you want to do something? It's fun for you to uncover others' scars, isn't it?"

After he roared, he turned around and left. Yasmine's tears instantly filled her eyes, but they did not flow out. Her parents-in-law came over-

"My child, I'm sorry this happened to you. Don't blame Sebastian. This day is a day of humiliation for him, and also the day that he is most unwilling to remember." "Why?"

She tried her best to suppress the urge to cry.

Tiffany answered for her parents sadly, "Because today is the day Abigail abandoned my brother. Three years ago, she agreed to my brother's proposal and promised to be his most beautiful bride on his birthday. But no one expected that the outcome would be like that..."

Yasmine's heart skipped a beat. It was because of that woman again.

"After the incident, my brother never celebrated his birthday in these three years. Every one of us deliberately ignore what day it is today. We don't dare mention it in front of him because we're afraid of hurting him."

"I'm sorry, mom and dad. I didn't know that such a thing happened three years ago. I'm sorry for making all of you sad," Yasmine said to them. Madam Simons quickly comforted her. "It's not your fault. It's absolutely not your fault. You had no idea. We don't blame you at all."

She squatted down and quietly packed up the cake back into the box. When she saw the words, ruined, on the icing, her tears finally streamed down her cheeks.

"Let the servants clean up. Let's eat."

Madam Simons helped her up and pulled her to the dining table with her daughter. In the face of a sumptuous dinner, everyone had their own worries. In order not to increase the burden in Yasmine's heart, she forced a smile and praised her cooking skills even though she was very sad.

Looking at them trying hard to enjoy dinner, Yasmine suddenly put down the cutlery in her hand and ran out...
