Helen walked over with a smile. "Yoselin, your dress is a to disaster. I happen to have an extra gown with me. Since we're about the same size, why don't you try mine on?" She figured if Yoselin wore her dress, it might help her get close to the Russell family. Yoselin shook her head. "No, thanks. I have some extra dresses here." She quickly grabbed the hem of her gown and pulled Yasmine along. "Come on, let's

go.

She didn't want Yasmine to be bullied, especially not when she had promised her brother to look after her.

Just then, a waiter approached them. "Ms. Sanchez, Mr. Russell wants to see you."

Yoselin instantly released Yasmine's hand. "You go find my brother. I'll change and catch up in a minute. Don't let anyone bother you,' she said, shooting a fierce glare at Helen before rushing upstairs. Yasmine chuckled and nodded to the waiter. "Lead the way." She decided to ignore Helen and Yvette.

Once Yasmine left, Helen ground her teeth in frustration. "What's so great about her? Mr. Russell treats her like she's royalty! The moment she was in trouble, he called her away like that!"

"It was not Mr. Russell," Yvette replied c**lly, her eyes narrowing slightly.

Helen raised an eyebrow. "Not Mr. Russell? Then who? Was it you?"

Yvette nodded, a smirk creeping onto her face. "What are you going to do? If you embarrass Yasmine, Mom will like you even more," said Helen, excitement written all over her face. "Just wait and see what I have planned," said Yvette in a cold tone.

Meanwhile, Yasmine followed the waiter through the banquet hall until they reached the back garden. It was eerily quiet. "Where's Mr. Russell?" she asked, looking around.

"Mr. Russell only asked me to bring you here. He didn't say anything else. You can wait here, the waiter explained before leaving and locking the door behind him.

"Let go of me!" Yasmine snapped, trying to pull away, but he was too strong..

"I know who you are. Xavier doesn't want you anymore, and here you are trying to snag Mr. Russell. But let me tell you, don't get your hopes up. You might as well try your luck with me instead. I've got cash to burn." His voice was raspy and gross.. Yasmine glared at him. "You better think this through! If you know who I am, then you must also know I'm Mr. Russell's partner tonight. If you mess with me, you really think he's going to let you off easy?"

"Ha! You think you're someone special? I just made a deal with the Russell family. You think Mr. Russell would drop a business deal for some girl? Don't be so naive. Families like that don't believe in love or real feelings. And even if they did, it wouldn't be for you. Why don't you be with me instead? I only noticed you because you have a decent look. None of the other girls come close to you," said the man.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

He grinned, revealing yellowed teeth and bad breath, continuing to leer as he spoke. "But I must admit, you are pretty cute! You stand out from the crowd, especially with that innocent look."

Yasmine felt her stomach twist in knots as she listened to the gross words coming from the man. Her face turned pale, and her eyes blazed with fury. "I swear, if you touch me, I'll make you regret it!"

"Calm down! It's just you and me in this garden, and I've locked the door. You think you can escape?" The man yanked Yasmine's wrist, trying to pull her into his arms. His greasy flushed, and he reached out for her shoulder with a creepy grin.

Without thinking, Yasmine kicked out hard. The man let out a painful yelp and bent over, clutching himself. "I'll make you pay for this!"

"Help!"

"How dare you hinder me?" he yelled but froze when he saw who it was.

When she saw Yonas, Yasntine's eyes filled with tears, and her breath hitched.

"Let her go!" Yonas commanded, his voice icy, The man's s grip loosened.

Yasmine rushed behind Yonas, her hands shaking. "Please, call the police!"

Yo**s's eyes softened as he noticed the marks around her wrist. "Okay, I will."

Yonas turned to Yasmine, focusing on her instead. "A waiter said you were looking for me and brought me here, but you weren't around. This guy wouldn't let me leave and said I had to go with him," Yasmine explained.

"Mr. Russell, you can't do this! What do you want?" he begged, his voice shaking.

"From now on, you'll have no place in Soucrity," Yonas declared coldly.

The man watched in horror as Yo**s's polished shoe landed heavily on his leg. His scream was louder than the crunch of his bone. He couldn't believe how much pain shot through him. Russell! I'm sorry! I promise I won't do it again!" said the man.
