The Seventh Miserable Bride
Chapter 87

Yasmine Taylor slowly turned around and looked with her eyes which was blurred by her tears and the rain and saw a figure standing on the coast waving at her. She was stunned for a moment and continued to move forward, but the voice behind her sounded again, "Miss, if you are committing suicide, can you take me with you?"

Yasmine was stunned again. When she saw that the figure had jumped down, she hurried back and wiped the tears at the corners of her eyes. Finally, she saw that the person who called her was a beggar dressed in old rags. He was in his 60s, but perhaps because of hunger, he was so thin that he was practically left with bones.

"Mister, what are you doing?"

She asked in a hoarse voice.

"Suicide. Aren't you committing suicide also? Can you take me with you? I've already thought of death many times, but I don't have the courage to do so every time. Today, when I see that you are going to jump into the water, I'm thinking if I can borrow your courage to fulfill my wish for death."

"Why do you want to die?"

"Because I'm hungry." The beggar pointed to his body and said, "Look at the clothes I'm wearing, anyone can tell that I'm a beggar. It's hard to get food in this weather. I can't bear the hunger so I'd rather die." Yasmine touched her pocket and found that she didn't have any money with her. In a hurry, she took off the earrings her mother had left her. "Take this. You should be able to sell it for money. Don't follow me anymore."

The beggar took her earrings and weighed them. He shook his head and said, "No, this earring is only enough for me to live for another ten days at most. What should I do after that ten days? I will be thinking of death again at that time."

Yasmine was a little annoyed. "Do you really want to die? Was your life that good to begin with?"

"I used to live a worse life, but I didn't think of getting rid of my life before, but now, I think of it."

"Since you have never thought about it before, then why do you want to die now? Even if life is tough and full of challenges, you still have to continue living. There will always be a way out. It's not for sure that you will starve to death in ten days time. You can use the money you've gotten from selling the earrings to buy lottery tickets. Maybe you will win millions of dollars, and you can live a good life from then on. If you can live to the age of 100 years old, then please don't let your life end at 60."

The beggar smiled and said, "Miss, you're quite good at persuading people. Then why do you want to die? I've been struggling for my life until I'm 60 years old. How old are you? What have you gone through that you have to die?"

Yasmine had no answer to his question. After a short moment of silence, she had already given up the idea of ending her life and sobbed as she said to the beggar, "Thank you, you are a good person." "Haha, I don't want to be a good person. At this time, good people can't even fill their stomachs, whereas evil people can live freely."

"If you're hungry, please come to the Mansion House to look for me. You just need to mention my name. I'm Yasmine Taylor."

The beggar smiled and nodded, "Well, you are a good person too."

Yasmine's nose twitched and she couldn't say anything. She was indeed a good person, but good people could also be evil sometimes.

"I'm leaving then. Please take care of yourself."

"Okay, take care of yourself too."

Yasmine took a few steps and suddenly turned her head back. She said apologetically, "Mister, could you please give me back the earrings that I gave you just now?"

"Ah? Why? I'll starve to death."

"That's the only gift my mother left for me. I was eager to give it up just now and thought that it wouldn't matter if I had it or not, but now..."

"Haha, I understand. I'll give it back to you."

The beggar handed the earrings back to her. Yasmine looked at his thin and frail body and felt very sorry for him. "Why don't you come back with me and I'll give you some money." "There's no need. You're not in a good mood now. I'd better look for you at the mansion some other day."

"That will do."

After bidding goodbye, Yasmine's figure soon disappeared in the vast night. The beggar smiled gratifiingly and then walked away in the opposite direction.

Upon returning home, Yasmine's in laws were startled when they saw their daughter-in-law who was soaking wet. Titus Simons was very confused, but Madam Simons kind of knew what had happened.

She went upstairs and shut herself up in the room. Her mother-in-law followed her into the room. She was distressed and reached out to touch her cheek. "Did he find out about everything?"

"Yes."

Yasmine burst into tears without saying a word.

"Then what are you going to do?"

"I don't know. Mom, I don't know what to do now."

"Promise me that you must be strong. If you give up now, then you mean that you are giving up completely."

"I can hold on, but he won't forgive me. He now hates me to the core."

"Then you have to double your love for him. No matter what kind of situation it is, love is the best way to resolve hatred."

Love was the best way to resolve the hatred. This was Yasmine had always lived by. She could use love to break down the hatred of others, but who could do that for her? Who could help her to break down her own hatred?

As she had expected, Sebastian Simons did not come back for the whole night. She sat alone for an entire night and thought about a lot things. In the end, she had decided to resolve Sebastian's hatred with her love as what her mother-in-law had said.

She called him, but the phone was turned off, so she went to the company to find him. However, she was told that she could not go in without the president's permission.

Sebastian had showed his standpoint through his attitude. Yasmine left dejectedly. After work in the evening, she came to the company again and wanted to wait for her husband. However, she did not see Sebastian coming out after waiting for two hours.

Fortunately, she met Fynn Jaymond.

"Madam, are you waiting for President Sebastian?" Fynn came forward and asked.

"Yes, has he gotten off work?"

"You don't need to wait any longer. President Sebastian left the company at around 3 o'clock."

"Where did he go?"

"I'm not sure, but now should be the most dreadful period for him." Fynn glanced meaningfully at Yasmine and said, "Maybe you should give him some time to calm himself down." Yasmine nodded in disappointment and turned away with a haggard look. Behind her, there was a pair of cold eyes staring at her from a high place.

At the extravagant Royal Rose, Sebastian, Marcus Zaneson and the others were in a private room, playing finger-guessing game and drinking. Some of Sebastian's friends did not even notice the coldness in his eyes. Jeremy Urs was still shouting, "Let ask for some girls. I heard that a batch of beauties have just come in recently."

Kaleb Lorris echoed, "That's right. If there are no newcomers still, I'll have to move to another place then."

Not long after the meeting, the escort led about six beautiful women into the room and said respectfully, "Masters, I've brought them here. They're all newbies. Please be gentle to them." Marcus whistled, "Don't worry, I won't scare the girls off."

When the escort left, the four men went forward to pick the girl who was to their liking, and the remaining one stood there stupidly. Kaleb Lorris winked at her and said, "Go to Master Sebastian's side quickly." The girl didn't know who Master Sebastian was. When she saw that the other girls had someone to accompany, she sat down beside the man who didn't have a companion.

Sebastian drank alone and ignored the woman who was beside him. That girl was probably just a newbie because she didn't even take the initiative to talk to him. After a long while, he shifted his eyes to look at her and asked, "Why do you keep looking at me?"

The girl was so scared that she quickly lowered her head and twisted her hands, not knowing what to do. She answered nervously, "The manager said that I have to look at the guest at all times when I'm sitting next to the guest." Jeremy spat out a mouthful of wine and said, "This Dark Heart is really brilliant. Where did he find such a pure girl?"

Dark Heart was the nickname of the boss of Royal Rose. Because what he had earned was all black money, so they called him Dark Heart.

"Did your manager tell you how to steal the guest's heart then?"

The girl shook her head. "No."

"Then do you want to take a peek at it?"

Sebastian grabbed her waist and got closer to her. He asked with his charming eyes, "How is it? Am I very handsome?"

"Yes..."

"Do you like me?"

"Yes..."

"If I rescue you out from here, will you always be loyal to me?"

"Yes..."

"Very good acting skills."

Sebastian sneered and suddenly shifted his hand from her waist to her neck. "I've seen a woman who is more hypocritical than you, so don't pretend to be innocent."

The girl was so scared by his volatile attitude that she had burst into tears. Marcus quickly pulled Sebastian's hand away and reprimanded discontentedly, "What's the matter? I just promised the escort that I wouldn't scare them. Aren't you putting me in a difficult position now?"

Sebastian snorted and said, "You can't show mercy to women who are hypocritical. Otherwise, they will push you down into the abyss without hesitation when you have your guard down."

All of them looked at each other. They were deeply puzzled by his abnormal words and deeds, but no one dared to raise any questions in regard to his words.

Yasmine stood gauntly in front of the window in the bedroom. Tiffany Simons knocked on the door and came in.

"Yasmine, you still couldn't get in touch with my brother?"

"Yes." She nodded dejectedly.

"I have my brother's new phone number. You can contact him with this."

Yasmine looked at her sister-in-law in surprise. "How did you..."

"I don't care what Fynn wants. Fynn is good to me. He won't betray my brother for anyone else except for me."

When Tiffany mentioned about Fynn, she looked like a blissful woman. Yasmine thought that she was also like this before, but the happiness was short. As she thought about it, her eyes started to fill with sadness again. She jotted down Sebastian's new number and dialed it anxiously after her sister-in-law had left.

It took a long time for the call to be connected. "Hello?" The other side of the phone was very noisy.

She took a deep breath and said, "It's me, Yasmine, we..." Before she could finish her words, the phone was hung up. Facing Sebastian's indifference, she knelt on the ground in distress.

After a long time, she suddenly got up and rushed out of the house in a coat. She guessed that Sebastian must be at Royal Rose because she could vaguely hear Marcus's loud voice on the phone just now. When she arrived at Royal Rose, she got to know from the supervisor that Sebastian was indeed here. She calmed down and was mentally prepared to be ignored by him. She pushed the door open without hesitation and went in. Except for Sebastian, everyone was very surprised at her arrival.

"Miss Taylor, why are you here? Are you here to check on us?"

Kaleb said in a joking tone.

She did not answer. She walked straight to Sebastian and said firmly, "Can we talk?"

"Get out."

Sebastian drove her away mercilessly. She was already prepared for it, so she would not retreat easily. "Let's talk about it here then."

She looked at the woman beside Sebastian and asked, "Can you leave us alone, please?"

The girl was shocked by her imposing manner. When she was about to get up, Sebastian held her down and said, "No one can drive you away without my permission." Then he turned to Yasmine and said, "You should be the one who should go."

At this time, Marcus and others noticed that something was wrong. They could feel strong tension between Yasmine and Sebastian so they got up one after another and said, "We have to go first. You guys talk it out."

Jeremy winked at the girl, and the girl left with them in panic.

There were only the two of them left in the room. Yasmine was about to sit down and talk to Sebastian, but he suddenly stood up and walked out of the room without looking back.

Yasmine burst into tears. How much did he hate her? How could he refuse to give her even one second?

She sniffed her nose and ran after him. Outside the nightclub, Sebastian was talking to Marcus and others. Yasmine found his car and waited for him by the car. After a while, he finished speaking and went straight to the car. However, he ignored her and opened the door, started the engine and drove away.

Yasmine quickly stopped a taxi and said to the driver, "Catch up with that car. Hurry up."

In front was the traffic light, and all the cars had stopped. Yasmine looked at the red light which was as brilliant as blood and recalled that day in her mind. On that day, Sebastian thought that she was really hit by a car, so he was so angry that he ordered her not to take a taxi in the future. At that instant, Yasmine opened the door and went out of the car.

"Hey, Miss, what are you doing?"

The driver shouted in panic, but she ignored him and continued to move forward. Instead of stopping beside Sebastian's car, she stopped in the middle of the road.

When the green light was on, she closed her eyes and resolutely stepped on the path of death. She was betting on her life for her love, just for Sebastian to say, "Because I will be sad."
