Love Coming from the Least Expected novel Chapter 118

When I turned around to leave, my right hand brushed against the bowl of hot soup. With that, both my arm were now injured.

When the doctor came to check on my injury, he was looking at me strangely. Although wealthy families would always have their own designated private doctor, it must have been weird for the doctor to get called over repeatedly as it was rare for someone from a wealthy family to keep getting into accidents.

“You’re really careless, Ms. Tanner.” The doctor was speechless.

“What can I say, it seems that fate likes to play jokes on me seeing how I am always the unfortunate one.” I sighed. My right arm was hurting like hell, and I wished for nothing more than to pounce into Christopher’s arms and cry. Why did I have to attend such a boring party? It’s really tiring to deal with all those scheming people.

That being said, this was still Christopher’s home, and being here was a good chance for me to experience the place he had grown up in.

“I’m so sorry, Ms. Tanner. It was because of our negligence that you’ve gotten injured.” Darius stood behind the doctor and nodded to me with an apologetic expression on his face.

Pleasantly surprised, I quickly shook my head. “No, it’s because I was careless.”

Is everyone in Christopher’s family so nice? For some reason, I kept feeling that Darius seemed to be treating me really nicely. After checking on me, he addressed Benjamin and the rest. “Mr. Miller and Mr. Smith, did our party fail to take care of your needs? What were the two of you doing?”

“You’ve misunderstood us, Mr. Lane. We just had a small quarrel, that’s all. Please excuse us.” As Benjamin’s face was completely bruised by the fight, it was bandaged and he did not speak. On the other hand, Lyle had a way with words and quickly explained.

However, his words caused everyone to break out into a buzz. The reason was that he was standing in front of Crystal, while I was sitting on the chair alone, surrounded by doctors. At such a juncture, he should have been taking care of his injured wife instead.
