Rebirth In Divorce: My New Mr. Perfect

"Look how smug that woman looks, Yvette!" Helen gritted her teeth as she pointed.

Yvette quickly turned her head, forcing a smile. "Well, she's Mr. Russell's partner. Of course she's feeling proud. Which girl wouldn't want to be with Yonas?"

Deep down, many women probably felt the same jealousy even if they didn't show it. They were likely cursing Yasmine in their heads.

Helen's anger only grew at Yvette's words. She thought, 'Why does she get to be next to Yonas? It should've been me!'

Yvette scanned the crowd, hoping to find Nathan Russell, Y*s grandfather. Noticing he was absent, she suddenly glanced up at the second floor, an idea flashing through her mind. 'Nathan wouldn't go for a divorced woman,' she thought, and then she left the Flynns." Meanwhile, Yoselin excitedly grabbed Yasmine's arm. "Yasmine, you look amazing! Seriously, you're even more beautiful than usual. I've never seen anyone wear a dress like that! Yasmine smiled back, admiring Yoselin in her perfectly tailored full-skirt gown. "Yoselin, you look gorgeous too!"

"Really? My brother picked it for me. I was just saying he has terrible taste, Yoselin said, sticking out her tongue playfully.

On the second floor, an old man in a suit sipped coffee as a middle-aged man approached him. "Sir, Yonas has arrived with a partner.

Nathan's face brightened. "That's unusual." His grandson had always kept women at a distance because of Irene. This new girl had piqued his curiosity.

"Let's go and see," said Nathan. The middle-aged man helped Nathan up. As they headed downstairs, Nathan overheard a few women gossiping near the staircase.

"Oh my gosh! She's really divorced?"

"Of course! Her ex-husband is Xavier, and he's over there at the banquet too."

"Does Mr. Nathan Russell know? Or is he in the dark?"

"I think he knows. It's not a secret. Their divorce was quite the scandal. There's no way Mr. Russell isn't aware."

Nathan's expression turned cold. So, she's Xaner's ex-wife-a divorced woman, he thought as his initial surprise faded.

"Grandpa," Yonas greeted cheerfully, stepping closer.

Nathan ignored Yonas for a moment to focus on Yasmine. "And who might you be?

With a calm smile, Yasmine replied, "Hello, Mr. Russell. Im Yasmine. Yoselin psychology consultant."

"Mr. White had been treating Yoselin. I assume you've done just as well," Nathan said. his tone serious

Thank you, Mr. Russell, but I can't compare to Mr. White, Yasmine responded, maintaining a professaccial but related tone.

In Nathan's gatherings, matry people tried town his favor with flattery, but Yasrning was different-she was poised and respectful thout being overly submissive. Nathan started to think she wasn't so bad after all.

Just then, Yoselin rushed over, wrapping her arms around Yasmine's "Grandpa, this is Yasmine. She's been kind to me

Yasmine felt relieved as Nathan's attention shied away from her. It was clear that being Y**s partner had drawn a lot of eyes, including the Russell family's. She knew Nathan mant have heard the gossip about her relationship history "Alright, let's move on Natha said, looking satisfied.

On the staircase, Yvette frowned deeply. The gossip had been her doing, meant to reach Nathan's ears. But instead of being furious, he seemed intrigued. She looked away and noticed Xavier, who was staring intently at Yamine, not her Yasmine looked stunning in her dress, like a true work of art. Even Xavier couldn't help but gaze at her, which made Yvette's fists clench in frustration.

The Russell were the hosts, so Yonas had to leave Yasmine after Nathan called him over. He made sure she was settled and, before he walked off, asked Yoselin to keep Yamine company.

Yasmine felt out of place. She knew from the start that being Yo**'s partner meant everyone would stare at her like she was a circus attraction.

Once Yonas was out of sight. Yoselin led Yasmine over to the dessert table. Yasmine, look at all these pastries. They're all my favorites. You have to try them," Yoselin said, her eyes sparkling with excitement.

Yasmine picked up a pretty pastry, admiring how delicate it looked and inhaling its sweet, fruity aroma.

But then, Helen strutted over with her usual smirk. "Yasmine, I can't believe actually came to this banquet," she sneered.

Yasmine felt her mood dip. This was just another jab from the Flynn family.

"Excuse me, Helen. Yasmine's here because my brother invited her, and I wanted her here too! This is our banquet, so maybe mind your own business," Yoselin jumped in, standing in front of Yasmine protectively,

Yasmine shot a cool glance at Helen. You should watch your words, Helen. This is the Russell family's banquet, and if I choose to come, that's my choice. You're the one making a fool of yourself. It seems the Flynn family has lost all dignity." Fuming, Helen's eyes blazed with anger. She looked ready to pounce but held herself back. This wasn't the place for a scene. "You'reach a lowlife! How dare you say that about my family!" "Shut it, Helen!" Yoselin said, her cheeks flushing red. If you keep talking trash about Yasmin
