Rebirth 82
Half an hour ago, Yasmine had initially planned to go to the kitchen to cook some food, but the pain in her leg became unbearable, so she called Lucy for help.
Yasmine told everything that happened at the competition to Lucy, including how Helen splashed her with hot water and how Xavier came to the infirmary to question her.
Hearing that, Lucy became furious. She said, "Those bastards. I never liked Helen. Even when you were still her sister-in-law, she treated you like a servant. Now that you have divorced from that scumbag, Xavier, she wants to continue messing with you. She's truly despicable."
Yasmine said, "She probably just wanted to use this competition to prove she's better than me, but stealing the test paper was too much. It's a crime."
Lucy, still seething with anger, exclaimed, "She's out of her mind. She always has ideas to hurt others. It's all because Xavier and their mother who spoiled her. You never should have been so nice to her."
Yasmine hurriedly poured her a glass of water and said, "It's my fault. I was wrong."
Lucy shouted, "What? None of this is your fault. It's all Xavier's fault. How childish can he be, bringing his mother and those people from the Grant family to the infirmary to confront you? He's just a scumbag. How did you ever fall for him?" After saying that, Lucy realized what she had said. She hurriedly apologized, I'm sorry."
Yasmine said, "Don't say that. You're right. I must have been out of my mind to have fallen for him. He's a hypocritical, disgusting, self-righteous scumbag." Recalling the awkward scene in the infirmary, she could only wonder if he was insane. Lucy giggled and raised an eyebrow. She said, "But did Yonas really carry you away in front of everyone?"
Yasmine nodded and felt a bit embarrassed. She replied, "I didn't expect him to do that."
"That was amazing. Xavier must have regretted it so much. A man many times better than him carried you away right in front of him. Just thinking about it is so satisfying!" Lucy was excited.
"Is that really so satisfying?" Yasmine asked.
"Absolutely! Think about it. Who is Yonas? Mr. Russell in Soucrity! Xavier can't even compare. Lucy could barely contain her excitement at the thought of seeing Xavier's face.
Yasmine was taken aback and said, "I just feel a bit awkward."
"For what? I wonder, is Yonas pursuing you?" Lucy asked, her eyes full of curiosity.
"How could that be possible? Don't overthink it." Yasmine immediately denied it.
Lucy asked, "Why not? Yonas is incredibly busy. He has so many things to take care of, yet he still shows up every time you're in trouble. And why would he attend a psychology competition at a university, even if he's a sponsor?"
As Lucy spoke, Yasmine realized something was off. Indeed, Luck was right. Yonas had shown up precisely when she needed help several times, and he even made her medicine. She thought Could it be as Lucy said? No, no. He's someone I could never reach. She shook her head.
"Well, let's stop talking about this. I'm starving." Yasmine said, feeling helpless.
Lucy Inurriedly laid out the food she brought on the coffee table Look, I brought all your favorite things, just for you.
"You should have some too, Yasmine, too tired to say much, picked up a fork and started eating ravenously
"Take it easy, no one's going to take it from you." Lucy picked up a piece of cake while offering a cup of coffee to Yasmine. She added, "By the way, if you don't agree to release Helen, will the Flynn family let it go!"
"It's not up to me alone. They should be dealing with Carter and Yonas. Yonas had made it clear that he wouldn't let her go easily. I don't have the final say," Yasmine said, her mouth full.
"I'm just worried... Just as Lucy was thinking, a knock came at the door, surprising her. She looked up and found that
Yasmine was also stunned.
When Lucy opened the door, she immediately closed it again when she saw who it was. Yasmine was still enjoying the food. She asked, "Who's that?"Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
"The scumbag," Lucy said angrily.
"What is he doing here?" Yasmine asked, already feeling irritated
The knocking continued, and Lucy opened the door again, glaring at Xavier outside. She said, "What do you want? You're not welcome here. Please leave now!"
"I need to speak with Yasmine, Xavier said, forcing his way inside.
"Are you insane, Xavier?" Lucy snapped, furious at being pushed aside.
"Xavier, this is my home! You harmed my family, and I have every right to call the police. Your sister is already in the detention center. Do you want to join her?" Yasmine said coldly
Xavier stopped in his tracks and said, "I'm sorry, Ms. Lynch."
Lucy scoffed and said, "No need to apologize. Just leave."
"Yasmine, I really need to talk to you." Xavier's voice was filled with urgency,
Yasmine glanced at Lucy, then back at Xavier. She said, "Just go ahead. If you're here to ask me to release your sister, forget it. You should be talking to Mr. Leach and Yonas. I don't have the final say."
Xavier replied, "Yasmine, please, for the sake of our past relationship. We were married for three years. Can't you forgive Helen this time?"
"Enough" Yasmine shot him a look of disgust and said, "Xavier, don't say anything like that anymore. It only makes me sick. If you really value those three years, you'd leave now and stop making me hate you even more."
Xavier hadn't expected such words from Yasmine. During their three years of marriage, he had taken her love for granted. When Yasmine's attitude changed after the divorce, he assumed she was just struggling to accept it. But now he realized she truly loathed him, and it wasn't just an act
He said, "Yasmine, if this is hard for you, just name your price. Whether you want a house, a car, or money, I can give you whatever you want."
Yasmine sneered. She wondered what kind of person he thought she was. She said, "Xavier, if I were you, I'd go beg Yonas for mercy instead of wasting your time here. Talking to me won't help."
Lucy looked at him with annoyance and added, "Just leave. You are not welcome here!
Xavier struggled to contain his anger. He asked, "How is your leg
won't die from that. You don't need to care about me. You should pay more attention to your sister, Yasmine said indifferently.
"Yasmine, I'm just concerned about you. I thought at least we could be friends after divorce, Xavier said.

"Who wants to be friends with you? Go back and talk to Yvette about saving Helen. You are not welcome here. Lucy couldn't wait to close the door.
Xavier was unwilling to go. The thought of Yonas carrying Yasmine away in the infirmary gnawed at him like a thorn in his side. He asked, "Yasmine, do you really hate me that much?"
"Whether she hates you or not, I don't know, but Mr. Flynn, since she's clearly stated you're not welcome here, shouldn't you leave now?" A deep, lazy voice came from the doorway.
Yasmine's eyes widened as she looked past Xavier to see who was speaking. It was Yonas. Lucy's hands shook with
excitement. She thought, "Both the new and the old lovers are here.
