Love Coming from the Least Expected Chapter 39

I shrugged Lyle’s hand off mine and strode in the direction of the entrance. The moment I opened the door, I saw Zachary smoking next to the balcony. As confused as I was, I couldn’t be bothered by his presence.

After greeting the man with a simple nod, I was about to leave, but Lyle stopped me and asked, “Where are you going?”

“I’ll head over to somewhere I won’t be discriminated!” I replied with my teeth clenched because Sharon was the sole reason I had chosen not to file for divorce with that shameless man.

He frowned and said, “Dad will be mad at you if you leave unannounced.”

After much considerations, I changed my mind and decided to stay as it would be too much of a hassle to deal with Nathan.

Lyle then showed me the way back to the hall and had me join him in greeting his friends. I forced a smile and played along with him, being the dutiful wife as I should.

When we heard the crowd gasping, we turned around and looked in the direction of the commotion. Upon a glimpse, I saw Wendy walking down the stairs with Crystal. They seemed to be having a great time as they beamed in satisfaction, behaving as though Crystal was the rightful daughter-in-law of the Smith family.

Wendy had always wanted Crystal to be her daughter-in-law. When Lyle and Crystal were still in a relationship, Wendy would show up at our place just to meet Crystal in person.
