Chapter 229

"There's no birthmark on his thigh."

"Well, we can't help it if the birthmark isn't there, isn't it? Furthermore, it is normal for someone to not have a birthmark on their body. I have already told you yesterday but you refused to believe it. You even asked Tiffany about it."

"No, I could feel that something is off. My intuition couldn't be wrong. I'm sure that something is not right about this."

"Enough. I'm going to punish you if you bring up about Fynn again."

Yasmine Taylor was speechless.

The next morning, Yasmine was sent to the airport by Sebastian Simons in person. She took the early flight to F City. After getting off the plane, she saw her uncle and aunt walking towards her from a distance. They were happy when they met. She asked in confusion, "Uncle, how did you know that I came to F City?"

"Sebastian called us. Fie was afraid something would happen to you, so he asked us to pick you up at the airport."

Ah, no wonder. Yasmine thought with a smile. She was touched by Sebastian's thoughtfulness.

"Aunt, are you feeling alright?"

"Mm, I'm feeling pretty great. Ever since I learned that you're pregnant, I've been smiling every day. Yasmine, you've made the dream come true..."

Yasmine held her aunt's arm, knowing that she regretted not bearing a child for her uncle.

They returned home happily. Yasmine called Gabriel in the afternoon. When he learned that she had come to F City, Gabriel Smith was surprised and delighted. They decided to have dinner together.

"Aunt, I'm not going to have dinner at home tonight."

"Are you going out with Gabriel?"

Yasmine nodded.

"Okay, both of you are doing well now. Even though you didn't become lovers, but you could still be friends. It's really rare to see such a thing happen."

"Yes," Yasmine chuckled.

She felt that her fate had begun to reverse ever since she left the Simons family two years ago. First, she met Gabriel, then she got back together with Sebastian, and now she was even pregnant with twins. Gabriel had also become her good friend. Her heart was full, and she was contented with her life.

At 6 p.m, she waited for Gabriel at a famous restaurant in F City. To her surprise, Gabriel was not alone. Fie brought a woman with him.

"Yasmine, I really missed you so much. Come, give me a hug," Gabriel was still his usual flirty self.

Yasmine smiled and scolded him. "No way." She looked at the female companion next to him and asked, "This lady is..."

"Let me introduce her to you," Gabriel pointed to the woman next to him, "This is my girlfriend, Marissa Harrison."

He turned his finger and pointed at Yasmine, "This is my ex-girlfriend, Madeline Lorris."

"What nonsense are you sputtering?" Yasmine patted him grumpily. "Who is your ex-girlfriend?"

She smiled and explained to Marissa, "Don't listen to him. We are just friends."

"It's okay, Miss Lorris. He's always like this. I've gotten used to it."

Marissa grinned, revealing two shallow dimples. Yasmine had a good impression of her. Marissa was a beautiful, lovely, and gentle woman.

"Actually, Gabriel told me about you before. I know that he had pursued you for two years, but you already have someone else in your heart. Hence, he chose to let you go."

Yasmine was a little surprised. She nodded awkwardly, "Well, he did pursue me before, but please don't mind it. He was not serious at that time."

"Who said that I was not serious? I've always been serious, okay?" Gabriel protested discontentedly.

"I don't mind. A man would definitely have a few women whom he liked in the past. I will not interfere with his past as long as his future belongs to me."

Marissa stood up and said, "I'm going to the bathroom. Since you haven't seen each other for a long time, please have a good chat."

Staring at her back, Yasmine sighed, "Gabriel, you've met a really good woman." "Of course. If she wasn't good, I wouldn't have taken a fancy to her."

Yasmine glanced at him, "When will you change your narcissistic personality?"

"There's no need to change it. Marissa likes me just the way I am," Gabriel said proudly.

"Hmph, keep telling yourself that. It's not the first time I've seen you acting like this anyway."

Yasmine then changed the topic, "By the way, Gabriel, are you your parents' biological son?"

"What?" Gabriel almost spat out a mouthful of water. "If they weren't my biological parents, was I dropped off from the sky by the storks then?"

"You're 29 years old this year, aren't you?"

"Yeah."

"Do you have any red birthmark of the size of a fingernail on your thigh?"

Gabriel was stunned for a moment, then he suddenly lowered his voice and hooked his finger, "Get closer."

Yasmine leaned over and he said playfully, "Would you like to stay with me tonight? I'll take my pants off and show you."

"You're so annoying!" She glared at him, "I'm serious. Do you have any?"

"To tell you the truth... no."

As soon as Gabriel finished talking, Marissa came back, so the conversation stopped abruptly.

"Let's order something. I'm starving." Yasmine rubbed her belly and Gabriel nodded. "Okay."

Halfway through dinner, Sebastian called. Yasmine did not ignore the call and simply answered it, "Hello?"

"What are you doing?"

"I'm having dinner."

"Are you alone?"

The corner of Yasmine's lips were curled into a faint smile, knowing that Sebastian was deliberately asking this question.

"No, I'm with Gabriel."

Sure enough, Sebastian was jealous. "You two really have a good relationship. You just arrived at F City not long ago and you two have already met."

"Yeah, Gabriel wants me to meet his girlfriend."

"Gabriel has a girlfriend?"

"Yes," Yasmine glanced at the lady across her, "She's a gentle and beautiful girl."

"That's great. I could finally be at ease then."

Yasmine giggled, "Aren't you afraid of being laughed at by others when you talk about this? You're going to be a father soon."

They chatted for a long time before hanging up the phone. Gabriel clutched his heart and asked, "Madeline, are you pregnant?"

"Yeah, don't you know?"

"No one told me." "I'm sorry. I must have forgotten. Yes, I'm pregnant with twins." ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

She had been sitting on her seat the whole time. Gabriel could not see her bulging abdomen at all.

"Twins?"

"Yes."

Yasmine smiled happily.

"Oh my God, I'm completely hurt. My heart is broken. There is no hope for me anymore," Gabriel shouted exaggeratedly to the waiter, "Bring me ten bottles of beer. I'll drink to my death today."

On the fourth day after Yasmine went to F City, Fynn came to Sebastian's office. He reported to Sebastian with a serious look on his face, "President Sebastian, our plan is not going smoothly. I don't know whether Linda is being intentional but she has been making things difficult for us. Whatever we want to buy, she would try to raise the price. Now the plan has been completely disrupted by her. I'm afraid that we can't continue with our plan, or else the company would be in crisis."

A cold light reflected in Sebastian's eyes, and he gritted his teeth. "This d*mned woman!"

"There's another bad news,"

Fynn continued to report, "Haward Lewis, who is in charge of sales, quit his job today. Claudine Tucker had probably used some means to bring him over. I've talked to him for the whole morning, but he still insisted on leaving. Not only did he leave, but he also took away several important members. Now, some of their business cooperation cases have been forced to be suspended."

With a bang, Sebastian threw a coffee cup to the ground. He had been busy with other things for the past two days and he let Claudine have the opportunity to take his men away.

"I'm sorry, President Sebastian. I couldn't make them stay."

Fynn felt guilty. Sebastian promoted him to be the vice president of the company ever since the Old Master died. He was basically in charge of everything. Only the important matters would be consulted with Sebastian. Now, he had lost a few talented employees in vain, so he felt somewhat guilty.

"It's not your fault. You've been tracking down the acquisition case all this while. It's only normal for you to have overlooked it. If they want to leave, just let them go. There's no use for those who don't have a sense of responsibility to stay in the company!"

Yasmine only stayed in F City for four days. She was worried about Sebastian, so she returned to B City without informing anyone.

When Sebastian returned home in the evening, he was surprised to see Yasmine. He felt a little angry, "Why didn't you tell me that you came back?"

"Why should I tell you? You're so busy and I figured that I could come back here on my own."

"I could have picked you up at the airport if you told me. How did you get home?" "The driver went to pick me up. I just didn't want to bother you with trivial matters."

"It's not bothersome at all. You're not allowed to do this again."

Yasmine smiled and nodded, "Yes, Young Master."

"You are the most disobedient wife in the world."

Yasmine took his coat off for him and argued, "You haven't seen those who are truly disobedient, have you? Last month, Lily wanted to go to Tibet with our college classmates. Scott didn't agree and she promised not to go. However, when Scott woke up the next day, she had already left with a note. Scott was furious."

"You would have done the same if you weren't pregnant, wouldn't you?"

Yasmine smiled awkwardly, "No, I would never do that."

Although she had said so, she sighed secretly in her heart. Sebastian really knew the thoughts in her head.

"I've been away for a few days, did anything happen? How's the plan going?"

"Well, it's good. Everything went well."

A trace of gloom flashed in Sebastian's eyes. He did not mention the obstacles that he was facing in the company to her. He stretched his arms, "I'm exhausted after having meetings for the whole day. I'm going to take a bath."

"Alright."

Sebastian entered the bathroom. Yasmine saw that he didn't come out for a long time. She opened the bathroom door quietly and peeked at him. She saw him lying in the bathtub with his eyes closed and his eyebrows knitted tightly together. She immediately knew that he had something on his mind. It must be impossible for the plan to proceed smoothly. Sebastian must be afraid that she would be worried, so he chose not to say anything to her.
