The Seventh Miserable Bride

Chapter 239

There was dead silence at the other end of the phone.

Veins stood out on Sebastian's fist, which was holding the phone. He gritted his teeth and warned, "If you dare to say a word in front of my wife, I will make sure you die a terrible death."

Claudine Tucker smiled disapprovingly, "Even a cornered dog can jump over a wall, not to mention a human being. If you insist on not giving me a chance to live, then why should I care about the others?"

After a few cold sneers, she hung up the phone. Hearing the busy tone beside his ear, Sebastian Simons smashed the phone to the ground with a snap and the phone was broken apart.

Yasmine Taylor did not see Sebastian coming out of the office even though it was time to get off work. She pushed open the door of the president's office doubtfully and saw Sebastian sitting in his seat, his eyes shut in deep thought. His expression was unusually solemn. She slowly walked forward and softly reminded him, "Sebastian, let's go home."

Sebastian slowly opened his eyes and waved to her. "Yasmine, come here."

She walked to him in confusion and sat down, asking, "What happened? You don't look fine."

"Nothing. Let's go on a trip tomorrow." "A trip? Isn't the company busy recently?"

"We are not that busy. I promised you that you would go for a trip, and I realized that I haven't fulfilled my promise to you."

"But it's late winter now. Where should we go?"

"Let's go to Hokkaido."

Sebastian blurted out without thinking.

Yasmine was very surprised. She was confused, "Why did you want to take me to Hokkaido?"

"Isn't that the wish you have never fulfilled? I don't want you to have any regrets being with me, so I want to bring you there."

She smiled, "But we might not be able to see the Diamond dust even if we're there. The trip might end up in vain."

"It doesn't matter. If we can't see it this year, we will just go again next year. If we can't see it next year, then we'll go the following year again. We have a lifetime to prove whether this was just a legend."

Yasmine tilted her head. Her eyes were like a Cheshire cat, piercing through his heart. "It's strange. It's a little weird that you're suddenly treating me so well..."

"What do you mean?" Did I treat you well only today? You're mean."

He glared at her, "Well, wait for me outside. Let me pack up and we'll go home together."

Yasmine nodded, turned around and walked out. Her eyes inadvertently turned to the broken phone in the corner. There was a trace of surprise in her eyes. She looked back and wanted to say something, but she didn't say anything in the end.

On the way home, she couldn't help but ask in confusion, "What made you so furious that you even broke your cell phone?"

"Nothing. I just quarreled with Claudine for a while."

"That old witch?" Yasmine sighed, "Honey, I think the anger you have towards her is too extreme."

"There are some things that you don't understand."

"What is it that I don't understand?"

Sebastian did not speak. The car then turned around. "Let's have dinner outside tonight. What do you feel like eating?" He changed the topic.

Yasmine did not continue to question him. After all, she never cared about Claudine at all.

"I want to have lobsters, chowder soup, and you..."

"How are you going to have me?"

"I'll devour you right after you're done showering."

"Why don't we skip dinner then? Isn't it better to go home now and let you devour me?"

"No, I have to eat something to replenish my energy first. How will I be able to devour you if I don't have the strength?"

"Which part are you going to start from?"

"Let's start with the sausage."

"Yasmine, you're getting more and more lecherous." "It's all because of you. I learned it from you." Their voices gradually faded away, until they were completely drowned in the bright night filled with neon lights.

The next morning, when Yasmine and Sebastian went downstairs with their suitcases, Madam Simons asked in surprise, "What are you doing?"

"Mom, we are going on a trip."

"A trip? Why didn't you mention it before?"

"It was decided on the spur of the moment."

"Wow, it's so good to be young. You're free to do whatever you want to do. I'm envious of your spontaneity."

Yasmine and Sebastian looked at each other and smiled. After breakfast, they set off.

It was evening when they arrived at Hokkaido. They found a hotel for check- in. Yasmine asked Sebastian, "Where's your underworld friend? Is he still in Japan?"

"He has already left to the United States to expand his network."

"That's great. He'll have a bright future."

"What are you talking about? He's risking his life."

"What shall we have at night?"

"Is food all you have in your mind? You've eaten so much on the plane, and now you're going to eat again after getting off the plane."

"I'm hungry."

"Then why am I not hungry? Am I not human?" "You are a human, but you are only one person. I'm eating for three people. Could our appetite be the same?"

Hah! Sebastian huffed. It was indeed quite reasonable.

After dinner, the two of them snuggled up in front of the window of the hotel to admire the stars. Yasmine said, "Dear, have you noticed that the stars in Japan are more beautiful than the ones in

our country?"

"I don't think so."

"Do you think that the women in Japan are more beautiful than the women in our country?"

"No."

"Then, why are you staring at the landlady of the hotel all the time?"

She suddenly turned around fiercely, startling Sebastian.

He hurriedly explained, "I was not!"

"Are you still not going to admit to it? Believe it or not, I'll dig out your eyeballs and kick it like a ball."

"Even if you dig out my eyeballs, I couldn't possibly admit to something which I have not done..."

"Okay, then you can sleep on the ground tonight."

"Why should I sleep on the ground?

"That's because you didn't admit it even though you were lusting after the landlady."

Thinking about the scene just now, Yasmine was fuming. The landlady had a voluptuous figure. She kept walking around in front of them, and Sebastian had been staring at her all the time. If it weren't for the many guests in the restaurant, she would have lost her temper there and then. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

"No, I'm not. I'm not interested in Japanese women."

"Quit joking. You can't hold your lust back, and you don't care who they are."

"You seem to be saying that I'm more lustful than Tiger Woods."

"You are not like Tiger Woods. You have feelings for other women just because I am pregnant and couldn't satisfy you."

Sebastian rubbed his forehead, "What great injustice. Actually, I just stared at the landlady because she was with my underworld friend for a while. I thought she would recognize me, but she doesn't seem to remember me at all."

"Ah, why didn't you tell me that earlier?"

"How would I know that you would think it that way?"

They kept bickering until midnight and they finally lay down on the warm quilt. Yasmine exclaimed, "Sebastian, why don't we settle down here. Shall we?"

"Why?"

"There is no danger in the business field here, nor deep hatred. It's just the two of us. We are so free and happy here."

"Yeah, and it'll be more convenient for us to see the diamond dust."

"Yeah, would you consider it?"

"Quit thinking. How are we going to survive here? If we halt our business, then I wouldn't have any money to feed you."

Yasmine wrapped her arms around his waist and slid into his arms. "A capable man like you wouldn't starve me now, will you?"

They chatted for a while and then fell asleep one after another. They only slept for less than five hours. At half-past four in the morning, Sebastian was woken up by Yasmine. "Honey, get up."

"What's the matter?"

He was so sleepy that he turned around and fell asleep again.

"I'm going to see the diamond dust now. Hurry up. We won't be able to see it if you get up late."

"It's not even dawn yet. Let me sleep for a while more."

"We're not going to be able to see anything once it's dawn. Get up, hurry up."

She pulled him up and took out a set of clean clothes from the suitcase. "Put it on. I'm going to wash up."

The two of them got up too early. The restaurant had not yet opened. They took a bag of bread each, wrapped up in a thick coat, and went up the mountain with a flashlight. Yasmine was very excited. Even though she was pregnant, her pace was not any slower than a normal person. Sebastian held her hand tightly and stepped on the thick snow while climbing the mountain of Hokkaido.

"Do you still remember that cave? We had an intimate night inside last time."

Sebastian turned the flashlight to the left and Yasmine shyly patted him on the arm. "You're annoying."

They continued to move forward and arrived at the place that was most suitable for seeing the diamond dust. They opened the foldable bench and sat down, leaning against each other. Sebastian took Yasmine's hands and blew a hot breath with his mouth. "Is it warm?"

"Yeah, it's warm,"

She smiled sweetly and rested her head on his shoulder.

"It's still early, you should rest a little. I'll wake you up when it's snowing."

"Well, you mustn't sleep. You must have your eyes wide open. If both of us fall asleep, we will miss the diamond dust. You know the consequences."

"Yes, Madam,"

He put her head on his chest affectionately and covered her with a thick cotton coat. Yasmine fell warm and fell asleep after a short while.

She did not sleep for a long time. At least, Sebastian woke her up before her dream was over. "Yasmine, wake up. The sun is rising."

Yasmine rubbed her eyes. "What about the diamond dust? Did it fall?" "Not yet, but didn't you say that the snow would only fall when the sun rises?"

"Yes, so we have to observe carefully from now on."

The two of them waited. After half an hour, the sky gradually became bright. However, they did not see the diamond dust. Perhaps it really was just a legend.

"Sebastian, we have really come in vain."

Yasmine could not express just how disappointed she was. She lowered her head and sighed with regret.

"Yasmine, what do you think is that?"

He pointed to the east and Yasmine looked at the direction with interest. Suddenly, she gasped. It was the diamond dust. She jumped up from the stool and wiped her hazy eyes. Yes, she was not hallucinating. The snowflakes, shining like diamonds, were falling from the sky one after another...
