Chapter 208
"What are you talking about?" Yasmine Taylor was beginning to feel a little irritated. "I''m thinking
about yourpany''s future. Why are you not appreciating my goodwill and choose to nder me
instead? You''re really making me upset. I won''t care about anything anymore!"
"Who asked you to care about anything?"
Sebastian Simons acted as if she was meddling in his business. He then walked out of the office
with the documents for a meeting in his hand.
The two of them officially dered a "cold war" for the next two days. Sebastian ignored Yasmine
while thetter felt that she was wronged. She was contributing to his career, yet he chose to ignore
her. The more she thought about it, the more depressed she became. Hence, she decided not to
look into the new products anymore.
She did not care whether the products would make it to the market or not. She did not care if the
cooperation would terminate. What a tiring job it all was, thanks to that ungrateful man!
To Yasmine''s surprise, Gabriel came over three days after she returned to B City. When she
received his call, Yasmine felt that she was put in a spot. She was helpless.
Wasn''t Gabriel just trying to make thingsplicated for her on purpose? Especially when he knew
that theunch day was going to be held on the day after.
If she didn''t wee him, Gabriel would definitely probe her for a reason. However, if she did, that
green-eyed monster in her house wouldsh out again.
Although she had sworn not to bother about the new products anymore, at this critical moment, she
couldn''t bear to ignore her hard-working colleagues.
Yasmine was not opposed to Gabriel''s intention of picking her up once hended in B city. However,
what stunned her was his grand gesture when he arrived at thepany. It was fine if he hade
alone, but for him to actually arrive with a car full of red roses, a total of 999 roses...
999 roses. Even Sebastian had never been so romantic.
Afraid of being spotted by Sebastian, Yasmine hopped into the car hurriedly as if she was doing
something illegal. She urged Gabriel to drive away quickly.
Even though Gabriel did not stay at the office for a long time, Sebastian still got wind of his arrival.
The wholepany started to gossip about Gabriel and Yasmine. Even if he covered his ears, he
could still seem to hear them. At this moment, his lungs didn''t blow up due to anger, but the rest of
his body did.
Gabriel took Yasmine to dinner. She mentioned that she wasn''t feeling well and wanted to go back
to rest but he refused. He took out two movie tickets from his pocket, "I asked my assistant to book
them. It''s a new release, I heard it''s a good watch."
At Gabriel''s insistence, she had no choice but to follow him to the cinema.
It waste at night. When Sebastian saw that Yasmine didn''te home yet, he could not help
feeling irritated. He wanted to call her but he couldn''t put down his pride. After thinking about it, he
went to his sister''s room.
"Tiffany, call Yasmine and ask her where she is. And ask her why hasn''t shee back at this
hour?"
After two days of observation, Tiffany was certain that her brother and sister-inw were engaged in
a cold war. Without hesitation, she picked up her phone and dialed Yasmine''s number.
"Hello? Yasmine, where are you?"
Yasmine lowered her voice and replied, "Watching a movie."
"Brother, Yasmine said she''s watching a movie." "Who is she watching with?"
Sebastian scowled. At that moment, she wanted to rush to the cinema and shatter the movie
screen.
Tiffany asked, "Yasmine, who are you watching the movie with?"
"A friend,"
"Brother, she said she''s with a friend,"
Every time Tiffany asked a question, she had to cover her phone''s receiver and report it to her
brother.
"Ask her what movie she''s watching?"
Sebastian''s eyes were already zing with jealousy. "Yasmine, what movie are you watching?"
"Brother, she said that she''s watching ''A Mysterious Love''."
"More like ''A Scumbag''s Love''!"
Sebastian was fuming. He turned around and left the room, shutting the door behind him with a
bang.
Tiffany hung up the phone in a daze and grumbled discontentedly, "You can be angry all you want,
but why did you have to m my door..."
It was already half-past ten when the movie ended. Yasmine and Gabriel then left the cinema. She
breathed a sigh of relief, "Gabriel, I''m going home. You should head back to the hotel earlier to
rest."
"I''ll give you a ride," Gabriel offered.
"It''s alright. It''s more convenient for me to take a taxi."
After that, Yasmine walked to the middle of the road. As she was in a hurry, she ran into a man
riding an electric motorcycle. She shrieked as she was knocked to the ground.
"Madeline-!"
Gabriel shouted and ran over to her. He picked her up and asked, "Did you get hit? Let me have a
look!"
She grimaced and shook her head. "I''m fine."
The electric motorcycle rider was frightened too. He squatted in front of her and asked, "Miss, I''m
sorry, would you like to go to the hospital?"
"It''s okay. I''m really fine."
Gabriel looked at her up and down carefully and saw that she had grazed her arm. He said out of
distress, "How could you be fine? There''s a scrape on your arm."
"It''s just a superficial wound. I''ll just go back and apply some medicine on it."
Gabriel was worried about letting her go back alone. Without saying another word, he stuffed her
into his car.
Sebastian waited until 11 p.m, but Yasmine had yet toe back. He was bing more and
more anxious. Whenever he thought of Gabriel bringing so many roses to thepany in the
afternoon, he was sure that that man would not have any good intentions toward Yasmine.
He went to his sister''s room again, "Tiffany, give Yasmine a call and ask her toe home right
away."
Tiffany didn''t cooperate this time. She huffed, "I don''t want to. If you want to call her, do it yourself.
Otherwise, my door might get broken apart when you''re done talking."
"My phone battery''s t," he said, looking for an excuse.
"Then use my phone to call her,"
Tiffany was determined to not call on his behalf again. Sebastian had no choice but to take his
sister''s phone and walk out of the room.
Men who could never put their egos away were doomed to live in sheer purgatory. Sebastian used
Tiffany''s phone to send a text message to Yasmine. After a while, she replied, "I won''t being
back tonight." Only God would know how jealous Sebastian was when he saw the reply. He picked
up his car keys anxiously and rushed out of the gate and drove to Yasmine''s apartment.
His car was hidden in the darkness. When he saw that the apartment was pitch ck, his heart
sank, thinking that Yasmine had gone to a hotel with Gabriel.
At this moment, Gabriel''s car stopped in front of the apartment. He was slightly relieved, but then he
saw Gabriel holding Yasmine as they entered the apartment door.
He was just relieved for a moment and now his heart was once again filled with anxiety. He sat in
the car and waited for Gabriel toe out.
After sending Yasmine back to her ce, Gabriel asked her, "Where''s the first aid kit?"
Yasmine told him where it was. He took the ointment and disinfected the abrasion on her arm.
After disinfecting the wound, Yasmine immediately said, "Thanks, I''m sorry to trouble you. You can
go back to the hotel. I''m all good now."
"Are you in such a hurry to drive me away?"
Gabriel raised his eyebrows, got up, and walked to the refrigerator, "I''m hungry. I''ll leave after you
cook something for me."
Yasmine knew that he would sometimes be as stubborn as a child and wouldn''t give up until he
achieved his goal. In order to get rid of him as soon as possible, she did what he asked her to do.
Sebastian waited for half an hour in his car but did not see any trace of Gabrieling out of the
apartment. He started the engine and left in a huff.
After eating two bowls of instant noodles, Gabriel finally left Yasmine''s apartment contentedly.
Yasmine sent him to the door. Seeing his car vanish into a ck dot, she let out a long sigh of relief.
After his departure this time, Gabriel probably would not be back again until the products had
sessfully entered the market. Once everything was settled, she could then be honest with him
without anything holding her back.
Even though she felt very sorry toward Gabriel, she believed her judgment. She was convinced that
Gabriel would understand her.
The following day, Yasmine went to work in thepany. However, she didn''t see Sebastian the
entire day. When she called Tiffany, she found out that Sebastian was so jealous and angry to the
point that he refused to get out of bed.
She rushed home in the evening and approached Sebastian''s room quietly. When she opened the
door, she saw that he was not in bed. He was sitting on the couch and watching TV. She walked in
with relief. "Why didn''t you go to work today?"
Sebastian nced at her indifferently. "Stay away from me."
She was stunned. "Are you still angry with me?" She purposely sat closer to him.
"Did I not tell you to stay away from me?!"
"What are you yelling at me for?"
Yasmine''s temper also red. "You were fooling around with another man for the entire night. How
dare you ask me if I''m angry? Tell me, how could I not be furious?"
"What are you talking about? Who''s fooling around with another man? Where did you see me
fooling around with another man?"
"I saw it with my eyes! I saw Gabriel entering your apartment with you. I waited for half an hour and
he didn''te out!"
Yasmine chuckled, "That''s it? You misunderstood mepletely. At that time, I was knocked down
by an electric motorcycle and I had a scrape on my arm. He insisted on applying the medicine for
me. After that, he said he was hungry so I cooked two bowls of instant noodles for him. He left once
he finished the noodles."
"Do you think I''ll believe your nonsense?"
Sebastian was still fuming from what had happened before, but now she was adding fuel to the fire
burning in him, forcing him to explode in rage.
"I''m telling the truth. If you don''t believe me, you can ask Gabriel about it!"
"Since you both are already together, it doesn''t matter even if I ask. Forget it, I don''t wanna argue
with you. Since you have such a good rtionship with him, you should just leave with him. At least
I wouldn''t feel as irritated if you two aren''t here."
"Are you serious?"
Yasmine questioned with a livid face.

"It''s true, you may leave now." With a whack, Yasmine grabbed a pillow on the sofa and hurled it at
Sebastian. I''ll leave then. I helped you to sort out your job in the day and your private life at night,
yet you still act like a cocky arrogant bas*ard. I''m not going to do myself a disservice anymore by
staying here!"
This was the first time Yasmine swore. Sebastian had really angered her until she could not take it
anymore. She turned around to run out. Seeing that she was about to leave, Sebastian could not
help but panic slightly. He quickly stepped forward, pulled her into his arms, and pressed her
against the wall. Aan overwhelming torrent of kissesnded on her.
At this moment, the world started spinning around her. However, it felt as though the beast was
returning...
