The Seventh Miserable Bride

"I won't leave! I'm no longer the coward that I was three years ago!"

"That's good to hear."

Sebastian Simons sneered. He turned around and whispered to her ear, "You pushed Yasmine to hell. Therefore, from now on, I will let you live in hell too."

Abigail's face turned pale.

Yasmine Taylor finally reached F City after spending the whole day in the train. She didn't have anywhere else to go. The only person she could go to was her uncle, Chuck Lorris.

When she got off the train, her uncle and aunt had already been waiting for her at the train station. They rushed over excitedly to her as soon as they saw her. Her aunt held her hand and said, "Yasmine, I'm very happy to see you. Let me have a look at you. Why are you so thin? Have you been dieting?"

Yasmine smiled bitterly, "Aunt, I'm a little tired. Let's go back and talk about it then, shall we?"

"Okay, okay, Chuck, take her luggage."

The three of them took a taxi back to their residence. Yasmine looked at her uncle and aunt's house. Although it was not as luxurious as the mansion of the Simons family, but it was lovely. Uncle poured her a glass of water and said, "You must be hungry. Your aunt is getting you something to eat." She nodded and asked her uncle, "What do you do for a living now?"

"Well, what else could I do?" Chuck sighed. "Your aunt's health is not at its best and she has to rely on medicine most of the time. I carry goods for people at the dock. The salary is not low, but after spending the money on our daily expenses, we don't have much left for ourselves."

"Why didn't you tell me last time when you were in B City?" she asked.

"We have already troubled you too much. We can't rely on you for the rest of our lives."

Her aunt brought a plate of french toasts, "Have something to eat first. You must be exhausted after sitting on the train for such a long time."

Yasmine took a slice and put it into her mouth. Her hands were trembling. She couldn't remember how long it had been since she had taken a bite, but she didn't feel hungry at all. Perhaps when one was truly and heartbroken, they wouldn't starve to death easily.

"Why do you have the time to come to F City to visit us this time? Don't you need to work?"

Chuck and his wife still didn't know about her divorce, so they simply thought that she just came to visit them in F city.

"I quit my job at school," she said.

The couple was stunned. They patted on their thighs and said, "Well, you've already married into a wealthy family. You should have just quit your job from the beginning and stay at home comfortably." "I'm divorced." she continued softly.

"Huh?"

The couple was so shocked that they almost dropped their jaws. "What... what did you say?"

Chuck asked, stammering.

"I've just gotten divorced. I don't have anything left."

"No way! You two seemed fine when we visited you the last time. Why did you divorce Sebastian?"

Chuck and his wife couldn't accept it at all. They thought their niece was joking.

Yasmine's lips twitched a few times, and huge tears welled up in her eyes, dripping into the plate of french toasts.

Seeing her tears, Mindy Yard realized that Yasmine was not kidding. She asked carefully, "You aren't really divorced, are you?"

"Why should I lie to you?"

"Why then? There must be a reason. Divorce is not something you should joke about."

Yasmine put down the plate in her hand and said with tears in her eyes, "Because I can't bear children."

"Can't... can't bear children?"

Mindy's eyes widened in shock and she glanced at the belly of her niece. "Are you saying that you are infertile?!" "Yes."

Yasmine nodded with tears in her eyes.

"How is it that you can't have children?" Mindy suddenly cried, "You are a healthy girl, how could it be?!"

Perhaps because she couldn't give birth herself, Mindy couldn't accept this cruel fact either, even more so than Chuck.

Yasmine began to recite the torment that she had suffered over the past six months. When it came to the most excruciating part, she could no longer hold back her tears. She thought that she would never cry again for the rest of her life. However, when she thought of Sebastian, her heart still hurt so much that she could not breathe.

"These bunch of b*stards are simply not human!"

After listening to his niece's story, Chuck hit the table with his fist in rage. The glass on the table fell to the ground because of the vibration. With a snap, the glass was shattered into pieces and water flowed ou to the ground.

Mindy thought it was not impossible that Yasmine had been forced into divorcing her husband just because she was infertile. After all, the Simons were a wealthy family. Since the olden times, families like theirs had placed great importance on having their children to succeed in their family businesses. Therefore, how could they accept a daughter-in-law who couldn't give birth to a child? It was unfortunate that her pitiful niece was caught in this miserable reality.

"My child, why is your fate as miserable as your mother's..."

Mindy hugged Yasmine and cried sadly. Back then, she had witnessed her mother's tragic fate with her own eyes. Unexpectedly, 20 years later, she witnessed Yasmine sharing the same fate as her mother. Moreover, Yasmine was even more pitiful than her mother. At least, her mother still had a child even though she eventually lost her love. Yasmine however, had nothing.

"What are you planning to do now?"

Mindy wiped the tears from her eyes and asked distressed ly.

"I want to live with you. Although I could find my path again somewhere else, but I have lost my mother and the person I love deeply. I am really lonely. I have no other relatives. You are my only relatives. Being with you is like being with my mother, of course..."

Yasmine paused for a moment, "Uncle, if it's not convenient for you, then I'll leave tomorrow. I'm not asking you to take me in. I just don't want to be alone."

"You're not going anywhere else. You're staying here with us!"

Chuck stood up and walked up to her. "More than a decade ago, I was a jerk for refusing my sister when she entrusted you to me. Now, I will not be such a jerk again. I will take good care of you even if I had to sell everything off. From now on, your aunt and I will treat you like our own daughter. It doesn't matter if we are poor, what matters most is that we are happy."

"Thank you, really..."

Yasmine shed tears of gratitude. Chuck and Mindy cried, and the three of them hugged each other while crying.

After crying for a long time, Mindy got up and said, "There's an empty room next door. I'll tidy it up and let you stay there."

"I'll help you."

Yasmine wiped her tears and followed her aunt to the room the next door. It was about ten square meters big. It was not even as large as the secret room where she used to live in Sebastian's house, but she was contented. Although the room was small, it was enough for her to start her new life.

She must get herself out of this depressing life as soon as possible and start her life anew.

Mindy saw her standing by the door in a daze and couldn't help sighing. She thought to herself, "What did she do to deserve all these? She looked as if she had aged a lot, having being tortured by her unfortunate fate."

She did not have the youthful glow of a 26-year-old on her face, and her eyes looked as if she had gone through way more in life than those who were in their 30s.

After losing Yasmine, Sebastian indulged in alcohol every day. He would come home drunk every night. Abigail Tanner was getting more anxious day by day. She found that this kind of life was far from what she had imagined. She hardly saw Sebastian. He would be gone whenever she woke up in the morning, and he would only return home after she fell asleep. He had never eaten with her on the same table, let alone mention or being concerned over her pregnancy. She decided that things could not go on like this. She gave everything up and be a part of the Simons family not because she wanted to live a lonely life like this. Therefore, she stayed in the living room and refused to sleep that night. She wanted to have a good talk with Sebastian when he returned.

She knew that Sebastian may appear to be cold-hearted, but in fact, he was very soft inside. As long as she cried pitifully in front of him, he would definitely sympathize with her.

It was not until 11 o'clock in the middle of the night that Sebastian finally came back. When Abigail heard the sound of the car engine from the outside, she ran out excitedly and was ready to welcome Sebastian with the most gentle smile. Instead, she saw a scene that made her blood boil. Sebastian was in the car, holding a woman and whispering to each other intimately.

She rushed forward furiously and slammed at the window. "Come out, come out now!"

Sebastian opened the door and walked out. His body was filled with the strong scent of alcohol. He was drunk and asked, "What are you doing?"

"Why kind of question is that? I should be the one asking you! Just what on earth are you doing!!" Abigail screamed.

The woman who was behaving intimately with Sebastian in the car also got out of the car. She flexed her slender waist and stood beside Sebastian. She answered him, "What were we doing? Can't you see it with your eyes?"

"You..." Abigail was so angry that she reached out and was about to slap her in the face. She didn't expect that the woman was strong even though she had a petite frame. The woman grabbed her wrist and slapped her.

"How dare you hit me! Do you know who I am? How dare you hit me!"

Abigail covered her burning and swollen cheek and was about to go crazy. This woman had humiliated her! As a dignified Mrs. Simons, how could she be slapped by an unknown woman!

"Of course I know who you are. You are just a mistress who takes advantage of others to get that title you have now. What's so great about it? Hmph."

The woman held Sebastian's arm and said in a delicate voice, "President Sebastian, the night is so precious for us, so we shouldn't waste any more time here."

"Okay, let's go."

Sebastian nodded his head in a daze.

"Stop right now!"

With a hysterical roar, Abigail rushed in front of them and pushed Sebastian with all her strength. "What is the meaning of this? How dare you bring a wh*re back home? Are you angry at me or the child in my belly?"

"Hey hey hey. You got to watch your words. Who is the wh*re now? If I were a wh*re, you wouldn't be any better than me!" the woman provoked.

"Sebastian Simons!"

Abigail was about to collapse. "Hmm? What's the matter? I don't think there's anything wrong with what she said..."

Sebastian smiled at the woman beside him, feeling dizzy. Then, they left Abigail behind and walked away.

They laughed together and entered the living room. Sebastian leaned against the woman's ear and praised her. "Well done."

"It's not a big deal. As long as you're happy." she winked.

Abigail was still standing in the same spot as a fool. She could not accept the fact that Sebastian brought another woman home. When she finally came back to her senses, she immediately rushed upstairs like a crazy woman and slapped the door to Sebastian's bedroom. "Come out, you b*tch couple, come out!!!"

Sebastian had returned to his usual cold expression and sat on the couch in the bedroom. The woman asked him quietly, "Is she going to shout like this for the whole night?"

"No, she won't. She will ask for reinforcements right away."

Sebastian scorned.

As expected, after Abigail got tired of shouting, she turned around and ran to the Simons couple's room. She knocked hard on the door, "Mom, Dad, please get up quickly!" Madam Simons rubbed her sore eyes and opened the door. "What's the matter?"

In fact, the two of them had already heard the noise coming from outside, but they just didn't want to intervene. They knew their son's temper clearly. They also knew that Sebastian had never thought of letting Abigail live a good life when he allowed her to stay in the mansion.

"Your son brought a woman back for the night! He didn't even care about me at all. If you don't take care of it, I'll take your grandson to hell!"

Titus Simons also got out of bed and comforted her by saying, "Just calm down. I'll go and see what's going on."

He went to his son's room and raised his hand to knock on the door. There was no response. Madam Simons also went to knock on the door, but there was no response either.

He knocked on it for a long time and said a bunch of words, but there was still no response.

Titus sighed and said, "Forget it. He's really stressed right now. You'd better tolerate him."

Abigail shrieked in rage, "Who could tolerate this kind of thing? I am not an idi*t!"

"Then what do you want us to do? We couldn't just break the door down just because he refused to open the door, could we?"

Madam Simons looked at her helplessly.

"If you can't control your own son, what else could you do? I don't care. If you don't drive that bit*h away today, I will not let you off easily." she screamed.

Her words finally angered Madam Simons. She narrowed her eyes, "If we could control our son, you wouldn't be standing here today."

Abigail's face sank. "Are you just going to let it be then?"

"It would be better if you'd just accept it. After all, there's nothing we could do."

"Bullsh*t! Who could tolerate their man sleeping with another woman? If you are not going to handle this matter, I'll make sure that your grandson will be in trouble!"

Abigail turned around and was about to make her way downstairs. Madam Simons shouted coldly, "You better think about it carefully. The only reason you're living in our house today is that you have a baby in your belly. If there's something wrong with your baby, all your hopes will be in vain."

Titus also said indifferently, "You're telling us now that you couldn't tolerate it, but have you ever thought about Yasmine when you did whatever that you had done? I have told you before that you wouldn't have a good life even if you are married into our family. At that time, you were full of confidence and said that it wouldn't matter, but now you're crying and throwing a tantrum in front of us. Since you couldn't do what you said, then you shouldn't have played such tricks and get yourself pregnant with his child. Then they wouldn't have to go through such misery and you yourself wouldn't have suffered either." After they were with their lecture, the couple went back to the room and slammed the door.

"It's so annoying. Yasmine was married to Sebastian for more than a year and they've never had an argument like that. This woman has only been here for less than a week, but she's already causing a commotion in the family." Madam Simons complained.

"Just endure it. After the child is born, we have to think of a way to drive her away. Otherwise, the family will definitely be in chaos every day."

Seeing that no one was supporting her, Abigail couldn't decide whether she should leave or stay. Suddenly, she screamed hysterically, "Ah-ah-ah—"
