Chapter 90
After Fynn finished his words, Yasmine cried. Pearllike tears were sliding down her cheeks to her chin. She couldn't speak. She was like a blockhead, crying uncontrollably.
"I'm just telling you all of this, just to let you know that it's impossible for Abigail to come back, so you're the only person who can save him. If you give up now, then his life will be completely ruined."
"I know, I won't give up on him."
Yasmine walked to Sebastian's bed with trembling steps. She held one of his hands and placed it on her chest, tears were streaming down her cheeks again.
"You must get well. Sebastian, promise me, you must recover as soon as possible. You will never know that, under that strong appearance of mine, I'm just a vulnerable woman. Sometimes, I'm so timid that I don't even have the courage to step on an ant. For someone like myself, I needed a lot of courage to put down all the emotional baggage that I have been carrying with me all this while just to love you, just like how you have gathered the courage to move on from Abigail and to accept me and love me."
Sebastian did not react at all. His hands were as cold as a block of ice. Yasmine felt sorry for him and held his hand in hers. She held his hand close to her mouth and blew out warm air to warm up his hand but she all could only do was warm up his hands but not his heart.
She stretched out her hand to touch his defined facial features. She then slowly leaned down on his chest. She kissed his dry lips, his tall nose bridge, his long eyelashes, and finally her lips to the side of his ear. She sobbed and whispered to him, "Actually, feelings can be retrieved..."
It was said that only when you lost it, you would know how to cherish it, but after you cherish it, the pain you felt when you lose it will be greater than anything.
Yasmine accompanied Sebastian by his bed for the entire night. After daybreak, she called the Mansion House and then led the four bodyguards who came from the Mansion House to her parents' home.
Dorothy Ryles was very surprised at her arrival and asked bluntly, "Why did you come to our house?"
"Where is Linda Taylor?"
"Why are you looking for Linda? Linda is not someone you can see whenever you want."
As soon as she finished her words, Linda came down with her hair disheveled. She yawned lazily and satirized, "You really are ignorant, aren't you. Don't you know that you are the last person that our family will ever want to see?"
Yasmine slowly stepped forward and slapped her in the face. She slapped her on the both sides of her face without any mercy.
"Ah! How dare you hit me!"
It was another earth- shattering scream. Linda screamed and rushed to her and wanted to fight with her. Yasmine lifted her leg and kicked her to the side of the coffee table. When her head hit the table, she immediately got a big bump on her head.
Dorothy was stunned by the sudden attack. When she had come back to her senses, she immediately pounced on Yasmine like a savage bulldog. "How dare you hit my daughter!"
The two bodyguards behind Yasmine had easily pinned down the crazy Dorothy, and the other two strong men held Linda down on the ground. Yasmine walked to Dorothy and gave her a hard slap. She told her, "This slap is for my mother." Slap... another slap landed on Dorothy's face. "This slap is for myself."
Dorothy had never been humiliated like this before. She struggled hysterically and shouted, "You b*tch, how dare you slap me in the face! I won't let you go for this!"
Slap... Yasmine slapped her in the face again. She reminded her coldly, "If you continue to curse me, I'll beat you up whenever you open your mouth. If you would like to let your rich friends know that your red and swollen face was caused by your husband's illegitimate daughter, then you can scold me as much as you want. I'll beat you up to my heart's content as you scold me because I've thought since a long time that you needed some beating."
Dorothy was so angry by Yasmine's words that she burst into tears. Linda was about to curse, but when she saw Yasmine's sharp eyes glancing at her, she swallowed back her words and cried, "Wait for it. When my dad comes back, he will never spare you!"
Yasmine snorted and ordered the four brawny men, "Destroy everything."
After receiving the order from their master, the four men brought in the tools that were placed outside of the house. The tools were all as thick and heavy as iron rods. The men then lifted them up, went into the living room and started to smash everything they saw. Linda and her mother were frightened. They hugged each other and hid behind the sofa while shivering. They could only let out shrill screams as they listened to the sound of the expensive electrical appliances and opulent decorations in their home being destroyed.
Looking at this scene, the servants in the house were so scared that they hid anywhere they could find. No one dared to come forward to stop them. What's more, they didn't even want to stop them, because they had been fed up with these two oppressive ladies' attitudes.
The room was soon in a mess. Yasmine walked to the sofa and said harshly, "You won't let me live a good life, so I will never let you live a good life in return. From now on, I will not allow you to walk over me ever again."
After leaving the Taylor family's villa, Yasmine came to the hospital again, but Sebastian was still unconscious. She looked at him quietly for a moment, and then went back to school to apply for a leave of absence. She was ready to take care of Sebastian wholeheartedly until he wakes up.
Under her careful care, Sebastian finally woke up on the third day. The moment he opened his eyes, he saw Yasmine's sleeping face. He wanted to pull himself back from her hand under her head, but he accidentally woke her up while trying to so. Yasmine suddenly stood up and asked, "You're awake?"
Sebastian ignored her caring eyes and pointed at the door with a stoic face. "Get out. I don't want to see you now."
At this moment, the Simons came. They were very happy to see Sebastian had woken up. But when they saw their daughter- in- law's sad face, they immediately became worried again. Tiffany Simons asked in a low voice, "Brother, what's the matter?"
"Ask her to get out."
Sebastian turned his head away. Yasmine struggled to hold back the urge to cry and left the ward.
"Brother, how can you treat Yasmine like this? She has been taking care of you by your bedside while you were unconscious all this while."
Tiffany was very dissatisfied with her brother's attitude and glared at him as she complained.
"Well, can you guys leave us alone for a moment? Let me talk to him."
Titus Simons cast a meaningful glance at his son, and the Madam Simons dragged her daughter out of the ward.
When Titus and Sebastian were the only ones left in the ward, Titus said, "Do you really hate her so much that you don't even want to see her?"
"I don't want to talk about her now. If you want to talk about this, we have nothing else to talk about." Sebastian replied.
"Have you ever thought about the people who had betrayed or lied to you? Have you thought that they had done that because they had no choice? Perhaps they didn't even mean to hurt you, but because of their own difficulties, they ended up hurting you?" Titus asked.
"Who are you referring to? Abigail or Yasmine?" Sebastian retorted sarcastically.
He glanced at his father coldly and said, "I think you are referring to Abigail. I'm afraid that you know the reason why she left."
Titus looked uneasy and said, "How would I know? I am too at loss, like you."
"Really? Can you explain why you had asked Abigail out repeatedly the month before she left? What on earth did you say to her?"
Titus' looked even more distressed by Sebastian's words, and his eyes were flashing. "Did you think that I sent her away? I don't know where you have heard of such information, but I can assure you that I am not the kind of parent who would control who their child can marry. There was no reason for me to force her to leave you."
"Only you know best, whether you had anything to do with Abigail's departure. One day, the truth will be revealed just like when Yasmine had taken advantage of me. She can't hide it for the rest of her life."
Initially, Titus wanted to talk to his son so that he could think properly about his relationship with Yasmine but he had failed to do so. Instead, he was questioned by him so viciously. Titus was quite
frustrated and went out of the ward. He said to his wife, "Let's go home."
Looking at her husband's stiff expression, Madam Simons asked worriedly, "What happened?"
"Nothing happened."
As the two of them gradually walked away, Yasmine saw a nurse approaching the ward with some medicine in her hand. She hurried forward and said, "Give it to me. I'll send it in."
The nurse handed the medicine to her. Yasmine returned to the ward, but Sebastian's attitude towards her was still very unpleasant.
"It's time to take your medicine."
Sebastian refused coldly, "Take it away."
"Why? Do you want to kill yourself just because you don't want to see me?" NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
"If that is the case, you should be sensible enough to let the nurse bring it in."
"I'm your wife. What's wrong with bringing the medicine for you?"
"There's nothing wrong with it. I just don't want to take the medicine that you brought in."
Sebastian's self-esteem was still as defiant as ever. He pressed the alarm beside his bed and said impatiently, "I want to rest now, but someone has been disturbing me. Please send her out."
Yasmine slammed the cup of water on the table and said the exact sentence he said a few days ago, "You collapsing, just like this, makes me wonder why I used someone like you to seek my revenge. If I had known that you would be so vulnerable, I would have chosen a better candidate."
"Get out."
Sebastian was livid. Yasmine stubbornly turned around and walked away. When she arrived at the door, she heard him say, "It was you, wasn't it. When I was in a coma, did you whisper next to my ear that feelings can be retrieved?"
She stopped and slowly looked over. She did not deny it. "Yes."
Oh, Sebastian sneered and said, "Really? Do you really think that feelings can be taken back? Then can you teach me how I can take back my feelings?"
Yasmine was speechless. After a moment of silence, she said, "A long time ago, someone told me that my feelings could be taken back, but I didn't know the way to it, because I had never intended to take it back."
"Do you have any feelings though? Will a woman like you, who sells herself once every ten years, have any true feelings? It's so ridiculous to hear that coming out from your mouth."
"No matter whether you believe me or not, you are the first and only man who I have fallen in love with. During the days when you were in a coma, you could not see or feel my fear. Do you know how afraid I was of this place? The two most important people in my life were in that position, lying on the bed, and the first one had left me. I was so afraid that the second person would leave me too... So I beg you, you can hate me however you want, but don't torture yourself, and don't drink so much to make yourself suffer from internal bleeding..."
"So what? Internal bleeding? Only the heart will feel the pain anyway."
Yasmine's heart ached when he said that. She looked at him with tears in her eyes and sobbed, "You investigated the relationship between me and Leighton Lind but why didn't you investigate what happened before those ten years? What kind of life have I lived? Maybe after you know all of my past then will you understand why I have done all of these."
After saying this, she went out of the ward silently, as Sebastian looked at her lonely and stubborn figure.
Perhaps because of her lonely figure, Sebastian's attitude towards her had eased a little in the next couple of days. Although he still ignored her, at least he no longer drove her away harshly.
On the night before his discharge, Yasmine came to the hospital after work. She heard from the nurse that Sebastian had a bad appetite and had not really eaten anything for lunch, so she called her mother-in-law. After a short conversation, she came into the ward.
"You didn't have lunch at noon?"
Sebastian closed his eyes and pretended to sleep to ignore her.
"Do you feel like eating roasted potatoes? I'll go and buy some for you."
Sebastian's eyelashes moved a little, but he still ignored her. "If you don't say anything, I'll take it as a yes then." Yasmine covered him with the blanket and said, "It seems that you really want to eat it. Aren't you curious at all, how I know about your preferences?"
She gradually got used to his indifference. She did not wait for his reply and immediately continued, "Mom told me. She said that when you were a child, you would not eat anything else if you wanted to eat roasted potatoes. How could there be such a person?"
She smiled at him, got up, and said, "I will come back as soon as possible. You don't need to thank

me.
Two hours had passed but Yasmine still had not returned. Sebastian was a little puzzled. He took out his mobile phone and called her, but the phone was turned off. He hesitated for a moment and then called his sister. "Tiffany, come to the hospital now."
Tiffany didn't know what had happened. She rushed to the hospital and asked breathlessly, "Brother, why did you ask me to come here all of a sudden?"
"Yasmine went out two hours ago and hasn't come back yet. Please go look for her."
"That's it?"
Tiffany rolled her eyes and said, "She was sick and was lying on the bed, but you didn't care about her. Now that she hasn't come to see you for two hours, and you're already panicking. I really don't understand why you're my brother. How can a straightforward person like me have a brother who cares about his dignity so much that he has to suffer like this? Ah!!" "Since I have asked you to go, then you should go. Why are you saying so much nonsense?"
Sebastian threw the pillow that was supporting his waist at her. She was so angry that she groaned, "Fine, I'll go find her. Why did you have to throw the pillow at me?"
After his sister left, Sebastian was lost in his thoughts. After a while, he took out his mobile phone and called Fynn-
"Find out all the information about Yasmine and send it to me as soon as possible. I want every single detail about her."
