The Seventh Miserable Bride

With Yasmine's persuasion, Sebastian Simons agreed not to look for Abigail Tanner anymore. He hugged her and said, "Yasmine, thank you for staying by my side. Thank you for trusting me. Thank you so much."

From that day on, Yasmine did not step out of the house. Apart from the time when her uncle suddenly visited her in B City, she would refuse to leave the house no matter who had asked her out. She did not tell anyone that her marriage was in crisis.

Even Lily Adams, her best friend, didn't know what had happened to her. She thought that Yasmine was just resting at home, so she occasionally called her or chatted with her on WhatsApp. Yasmine was very upset, but she didn't talk to anyone about it. She didn't think that anybody had the obligation to listen to her troubles.

Two months passed in the blink of an eye. Yasmine did not sleep well in the few days toward the end of the month. Every time she fell asleep, she would dream of Abigail standing in front of her with her belly pregnant and a malicious smile on her face. Yasmine would be covered in a cold sweat every time she woke up from the dream. She felt like she was on the verge of breaking down.

Even so, she was still working hard to prepare and face the challenges with Sebastian. Amidst the fear, Abigail came back. She stood in the living room of the Simons family. Yasmine stared at her slightly raised abdomen and unconsciously moved her hand to her own abdomen. When would she bear a child?

Sebastian glared at her with furious eyes. Just as he was about to rush forward, Yasmine grabbed him and said, "Trust me. Don't let her see your guiltiness again."

Madam Simons stood up from the sofa and said, "So, Miss Tanner, are you here to do the paternity test?"

"Yes."

Abigail nodded with confidence.

"Well, let's go, but I'll tell you the ugly truth first. We will not abandon the child if it belongs to our family. However, if the baby does not belong to us, we will not hesitate to make you pay for the troubles you have caused."

"Okay, if it's not your family's child, you can do whatever you want to the baby."

Abigail stood up confidently and left the living room. Yasmine stared at her confident shadow and felt her heart sink.

"Aren't you going?"

Titus Simons asked his son and daughter- in- law cautiously.

"I won't go!"

Sebastian refused coldly. Titus sighed and said, "How are we going to test it if you refused to go?" Titus looked over at his daughter-in-law. Yasmine said with pain in her voice, "Go ahead. We knew that we wouldn't be able to escape from this problem from the very beginning."

Only Yasmine's words could change Sebastian's mind. He held her hand and asked, "Will you come with me?"

"I won't go."

If she didn't want to go, Sebastian wouldn't force her. After all, the situation was already very cruel to her.

In order to ensure that the results were accurate, Old Master Simons went to three different medical institutions to carry out the test. Every time Abigail did the test, she looked honest and was so calm that the Simons began to believe that the child was indeed the flesh and blood of their family.

Since they were willing to pay a lot, the results from all three institutions came out in the evening, and all of them confirmed that it was indeed Sebastian's child. Looking at the result, the Simons had mixed feelings. Sebastian grabbed Abigail's collar angrily and shouted, "I was obviously unconscious that night. What did you do to get pregnant with my child?"

"I used the most primitive method ever. Do you need more details?"

Abigail looked at his parents who were standing behind him. Sebastian said with gritted teeth, "Don't think that you are valuable because of your child. I won't let you get what you want!"

He glared at her with disgust and turned around to Madam Simons walked up to Abigail and said solemnly, "Now that the results are out, let's talk about it."

The three of them went to a nearby coffee shop and began a serious negotiation.

"I have said before that if the child belongs to our family, we will be responsible for it. Now that it has been proven that the child belongs to my son, you may offer a price. No matter how much money it costs, we will buy the child."

Abigail sneered and said, "You are really vulgar. Do you think that money can buy everything? There is only one condition. Let me marry your son. I won't consider anything else."

At this moment, it was Madam Simons' turn to laugh sarcastically. "We are vulgar, but don't you think you are dreaming? As you can see, my son has no feelings for you. Do you think he will agree to marry you?"

"It depends on whether you want my baby or not. Yes, he likes Yasmine now, but she can't bear children. A family like you needs an heir. You can't have everything at the same time. If you want the child, you have to give up your daughter-in-law. You should think about this."

Abigail stood up and didn't want to say more. When she turned around and was about to leave, Titus said, "Even if I let you marry my son, do you think you will live a good life? You have been in love with my son, so you should know what kind of person he is. He won't let you live a good life." "You don't have to worry about that. Even if he can't accept it for the time being, he will slowly accept me after I give birth to his child. There is nothing greater than the joy of being a father."

Abigail took an ultrasound report from her bag and put it in front of the couple with confidence. "Take a look. I spent a lot of money to get the doctor to examine the gender of the baby. I think you will make a better choice after seeing this."

She smiled and left. The Simons stared at the ultrasound report, and they were very conflicted, struggling in their hearts. "It's a boy..."

Abigail, who was standing outside the window of the cafe, saw the expressions on their faces and she smiled proudly. She was confident from the beginning because she understood the importance of this child to the Simons.

Three years ago, Titus forced her to leave, and she had holding her anger in. Now, she was back and pregnant with the Simons family's child. She could imagine how angry and helpless Titus would be when he was forced to accept the reality. It was a great joy just thinking about it.

As expected, the next morning, Madam Simons called her and requested a meeting. Then, she took her to a private hospital, bribed a doctor, and conducted an ultrasound check on her. She needed to be sure that it was indeed a boy.

As Abigail wiped the gel off her belly, she said, "Do you believe it now? I wouldn't dare to lie to your family."

After leaving the hospital, Abigail parted ways with Madam Simons, giving the excuse that she had something to do. Then, she dialed Yasmine's number.

When Yasmine received the call, she was stuck in the room like a walking dead. When Sebastian came back the night before, she didn't ask about the result and he didn't say anything either. The answer was self-evident. If it was not Sebastian's child, he wouldn't have remained silent.

Although she prepared herself for this, she still felt like a knife had stabbed her heart when the truth hit her. Sebastian looked even sadder than she did, so she had to hide her pain and comfort him instead. They spent the long night hugging each other.

Through the night, Sebastian shed a lot of tears. Finally, he said, "The child is mine."

She nodded and said, "Well, I will try my best to raise him as my own child."

These were the only two sentences they said the entire night, and then the room was filled with silence, which lasted very long. Sometimes, words were easier than actions. Yasmine was not sure whether she could do as she said. But at that time, in order to comfort Sebastian, she could only say so. Of course, she would try to do as she said.

"Hello?"

"It's me, Abigail."

"What's the matter?"

"Come out and meet me."

"Where are you?"

Abigail was stunned for a moment. Perhaps she didn't expect Yasmine to agree so readily.

"Red Roses Girls Club."

"Okay."

After she hung up the phone, Yasmine changed her clothes and put on some light makeup. No matter how tired she was, she did not want to look any less attractive in front of her love rival.

Her face was very pale. She put on some blush, trying to add some color to her cheeks.

Her lips were dry so she covered them with bright lip gloss, trying to make herself look energetic.

Not every woman would makeover for their loved ones. Yasmine knew very well that she was already at a disadvantage compared to her love rival. The more beautifully she dressed, the more energetic she would look. This was the only way she could deal with her rival, who was now winning.

When she arrived at the appointed place, Abigail was already waiting in the club. It seemed like she had worn a very tight dress, deliberately revealing her bulging abdomen in order to irk Yasmine.

"You've already know the DNA test results, don't you?"

"Yes."

"So what are you going to do?"

"You give birth to the child, and I'll raise it for you."

Haha. Abigail behaved like she had heard the most ridiculous joke in the world. "All of you are really self-righteous. Why should I let an outsider raise my own child?" "Then go as far away as possible with your child."

"You should be the one to leave! You're just like a hen who can't lay eggs, and yet you still stick yourself in the nest. Is there anyone as shameless as you are? Will you only be satisfied if you break the Simons family's bloodline?"

"Who is the shameless one here? You used despicable means to have someone else's husband impregnate you, and yet you still have the gall to show off. You really are like your mother. People with genes like yours should not get pregnant at all, because when your child grows up, he or she would only destroy other people's family."

Abigail was irritated by Yasmine's sharp words. She suddenly sneered and said, "I'm indeed despicable. What can you do about that? Do you know how I got pregnant with this child?"

"I don't want to know."

"What if I want to tell you? Let me tell you. That night, there were two kinds of drugs in your husband's juice, one was a sleeping pill, whereas the other was a sexual- arousal pill. Originally, I wanted to put only the arousal pill in, but I was worried that he would be too tenacious in his loyalty to you, so I added the sleeping pill for safety reasons. And I have been taking pills for ovulation for the past month, so I got pregnant with his child very easily."
