LOVE COMING FROM THE LEAST EXPECTED - Season 2 Episode 31

Crystal crawled her way over and started sniffling in front of me. “I’m so sorry for irritating you, but I’m serious about Lyle! If it weren’t because of the incident that had occurred in the past, I would never leave him! Please forgive me and patch things up with Lyle!”

If it weren’t because of my injured arms, I would have long slapped her in the face. Since the one rushing over would never believe me, I might as well take things out on her for momentary relief.

Lyle was the first to show up. He rushed over to help Crystal up and asked with a concerned look, “Crystal, what’s wrong with you? What’s going on?”

Crystal nestled in between Lyle’s arms and wailed, “Lyle, hurry up and apologize! Tell Yvonne you won’t be filing for divorce with her! It was never my intention to drive you away from her! I’ll leave and return to Anglandur soon! Just blame me for everything that has occurred and move on with Yvonne!”

Instead of burying her face in her hands, she looked at him in the eyes to show him her swollen cheeks.

The moment Benjamin rushed over with a bunch of people and saw Crystal wailing, he glared at me and yelled, “Yvonne, how dare you take things out on Crystal?”

“Ha!” I had enough of the foolish bunch and thought it wouldn’t make any difference to explain myself. Thus, I looked at them in silence, wondering if they had lost their mind for good.

All of a sudden, Lyle brought himself up and sprinted over in my direction. He tried to slap me in the face, but someone grasped his wrist and stopped him in the nick of time. A few seconds later, I heard the sound of someone’s bone cracking. Lyle ended up shrieking in pain in front of others.

Wow! I guess Zachary wasn’t lying when he told me he used to be in the army!

Irked, Lyle yelled while holding his injured wrist, “Zachary, what do you think you’re doing?”

Zachary said with a straight face, “I had had enough of a wimp taking things out on a defenseless woman.”

Zachary’s statement worked like a charm. As a result of his reply, Lyle started shivering in wrath, his face turning pale and haggard.

In an attempt to get himself out of the embarrassing situation, Lyle turned around and asked Crystal, “What’s going on?”

As though she was intimidated by Zachary, Crystal stammered, “I-I accidentally fell. I-It has nothing to do with Yvonne.”

Benjamin caressed the weeping Crystal nestling in his arms and asserted, “We’re here for you, Crystal! Just tell us if Yvonne has been taking things out on you again!”

“N-No! W-We were just having another conversation! B-Boohoo!” She started wailing abruptly, pretending she was the victim.

“Yvonne, I’ll leave as soon as the party is over! Once I make my way back to Anglandur, I’ll never return! Is this enough to please you?”

The moment she implied I was the one at fault, I caught Lyle glaring at me in the eyes with the intent to take me out all over his face. Afraid of trying anything reckless in front of Zachary, he yelled, “Why did you take things out on Crystal again? Have you forgotten she’s your cousin?”

I took another peek at my injured hands and scowled at Lyle, “Are you sure you’re in a position to pick on me? I actually think I’m not a match for a certain someone.”

Ha! How kind of him to rush over to other’s defense! Didn’t he leave me alone in the hotel when he was conscious others might take advantage of me?
