Rebirth 56
Yasmine felt something was off as she thought about the night's events. First, her dress had been ruined, and then she found herself brought here. Without her saying much, Yonas had already sent someone to check the security cameras. "I know. Don't worry. I'll find out who did this. Just go inside. It's pretty cold out here," he said, his voice steady.
Yasmine wrapped herself in his jacket, feeling his warmth seep into her. A spark of comfort lit up her heart. He always showed up when she felt the most lost, like a beam of sunlight breaking through the clouds. She leaned a little closer to him, seeking more warmth.
Her heart raced as her thoughts shifted from fear to anger, mixed with the comfort that Yonas provided. "Thanks a lot. I owe you one, she said, a smile forming on her lips.
Yonas's expression remained serious. "You're my guest at this event. If something happens, it's my responsibility. This isn't a favor," he replied, though there was a hint of irritation in his tone.
As they stepped back into the main hall, no one in the crowd seemed to know about what happened in the garden. But two people were watching them closely, their expressions filled with anxiety.
Since Yasmine had walked away, Helen had been pacing nervously near the door to the garden. When she finally saw a server come out alone and shut the door, a shiver of excitement and fear ran through her.
She could already picture what would happen next. If people found out, Yasmine would become the target of everyone's scorn, and Yonas would definitely find out just how disgusting she was.
Yvette had been with Xavier, but she wasn't really paying attention until she saw Yonas rushing toward the garden. That made it clear-something had gone wrong with her plan again. 'Why can Yasmine always get away? Yvette thought to herself.
Just then, Helen hurried over, her face pale and frantic.
"Yvette! Yasmine is fine! Mr. Russell saved her again!" she exclaimed, out of breath.

Yvette took a deep breath, trying to stay calm despite her growing annoyance. "Don't freak out. So what if he saved her? Just chill, or people will think you did something wrong."
"But what if they find out...?" Helen's voice shook with worry.
"Relax. The server is gone now." Yvette reassured her.
As Yoselin raced down the stairs, she wore a brand-new outfit that was even more delicate than her previous dress. She dashed up to Yasmine, her eyes shining with excitement. "Do you think this looks cute on me?" "It looks amazing." Yasmine said with a bright smile.
Then Yoselin noticed Yasmine's arm. "What happened? Your arm is so red!" Concern filled her voice.
Yasmine shrugged, trying to downplay it. "Oh. I just bumped it. It's nothing."
"That's not true. Was it Helen who did this? I'll go get revenge!" Yoselin's fists tightened, ready to confront Helen.
Yonas quickly stepped in, blocking her path. "Someone used my name to trick Yasmine into the garden. There are bad people who want to hurt her."
"What?!" Yosclin's eyes widened in shock.
This was a party hosted by the Russell family. Who would be bold enough to cause trouble, especially targeting Yasmine, Yonas's partner?
Yoselin grabbed Yonas's arm, frustration bubbling over. "Yonas, don't let them get away!, If I'd just insisted that Yasmine come with me, none of this would've happened!"
Just then, the hotel manager approached Yonas with a worried look. "Mr. Russell, I checked the security footage. The server locked the door and then left the hotel. I talked to security and tried to reach him, but his phone was off, and no one was at the address he left. Yonas's face turned serious. "What about the people he interacted with?"
"Mr. Russell, he was in charge of serving drinks, so most guests probably talked to him." "No need to look further. I already know who it is," a familiar voice called out, drawing

their attention. Both Yasmine and Yonas turned to see Chuck striding over.
Where were you earlier?" Yasmine asked, confused.
Chuck held up his phone with a smirk. "If I hadn't been late, I wouldn't have caught this
moment"
He opened his phone to reveal a photo. In it, a man stood in the garden, and a woman with a champagne glass was chatting with him.
Yasmine recognized the guy-the same one who had harassed her earlier-and the woman next to him was Helen.
Yasmine's gaze was sharp, and after Helen's repeated provocations, she couldn't believe how low Helen would go now.
Chuck swiped to the next photo and scoffed, "I don't think she's the only one behind. this.
In the picture. Yoselin was trying to protect Yasmine. The server carrying a tray full of wine glasses was about to get kicked in the leg from behind.
The server stumbled, the tray tipped, and the wine spilled all over Yoselin's dress. The owner of that foot laughed and joked with Helen, seemingly unaware of anything happening.
Anger flared in Yonas's eyes as he looked at Yvette. Yoselin's face was flushed with fury. Tm going to make Helen regret this. She bullies Yasmine every day, thinking Yasmine is easy to push around!"
"Yoselin!" Yonas stopped her with a glance, knowing exactly what she intended to do. "Listen to what Yasmine says.
"Yoselin, could you do me a favor?" Yasmine looked gently at Yoselin, but there was barely contained rage in her eyes. "Of course, Yasmine. Just tell me."
Yasmine whispered a few things into Yoselin's ear, causing both Yonas and Chuck to raise their eyebrows in curiosity. Yoselin burst into a bright smile. "Yasmine, that's a great idea!"

"Go ahead, then, Yasmine said with a light smile.
Once Yoselin lett, Yasinine turned back to Yonas. "Mr. Russell, I'll need your help with what comes next."
"Sure," Yonas replied coldly,
Across the hall, Xavier was chatting with some company executives while Selena was mingling with a group of socialites, laughing ingratiatingly. Helen and Yvette were sitting on the sofa, smirking at Yasmine. Helen was plotting how to humiliate Yasming when strutted over, holding a glass of red wine.
"Yvette, can you come here for a second?" Yoselin said, her tone filled with superiority
Yvette shot her a confused look but got up anyway. After all, Yoselin was the little princess of the Russell family. This was her territory.
"What do you need from me?" she asked sweetly, her demeanor calm and composed.
"I just want to have a drink with you." Yoselin brought her wine glass close, then suddenly, she stepped awkwardly, and the wine spilled all over Yvette, ruining her expensive dress in an instant.
Yvette struggled to suppress her anger, though her face was unable to hide the fury brewing inside her.
