Love Coming from the Least Expected Chapter 27

I walked aimlessly on the streets alone as I did not know

where I should go. I couldn‘t imagine the scenario if I

went home now and bumped into Lyle and Crystal. That

would be a total disaster.

Even if Crystal wasn‘t in the picture, Lyle would still find

fault with me. After all, his ego was what mattered the

most. I used to be such a lowly person only to feed his

ego, and he was treated like an emperor. However, the

embarrassment he had to suffer today was a huge slap to

his face, so I knew it was something he couldn‘t accept

lightly.

True enough, I received a call from him as I was walking

aimlessly at the city square. He was furious and

demanded I go home immediately. Upon that, I let out a

small laugh and asked, ―Why didn‘t you accompany

Crystal or the other girl? Aren‘t bored of an ugly woman

like me?‖ After that, I ignored his roars and hung up.

I sat by the flowerbed and shuddered as the night breeze

hit me. I then instinctively hugged my shoulders to keep

myself warm. All of a sudden, a warm jacket with a hint

of tobacco scent was placed around my shoulders.

Looking up, I saw that it was Christopher and stared at

him dazedly.

―What? Now that you‘ve seen Prince Charming, are you

in love with him, or should I say… me?‖ Christopher

looked at me. He smiled, and I couldn‘t help but stare at

his jaw and eyebrows that were carved into perfection.

His smile was incredibly stunning, like the brightest in the

night sky.

I pulled his coat tightly and asked, ―Why‘re you here?‖

―I found a stray cat as I was passing by, and I plan to

bring it home.‖ Christopher lifted me. ―You shouldn‘t be

sitting out here, especially when you just got out of the

hospital.‖

Then, he brought me into his Bentley before I could ask

any further. I wanted to ask him to let me down, but I

hesitated because his coat was so warm that I didn‘t

want to come out of it. Just like that, I ended up in a

hotel with him. It then hit me that I had decided to break

off this relationship with him just this morning.

―Come here, kitty! Have some milk!‖ Christopher passed

me a cup of warm milk out of nowhere.
