LOVE COMING FROM THE LEAST EXPECTED - Season 2 Episode 55

“Well, I just can’t stand the sight of you. Besides, I want to see you make a fool out of Lyle. Seriously, you two make a great couple.” Christopher had a wicked grin as he narrowed his eyes.

Although Crystal was livid, she dared not confront him, so she stomped out. Her high heels echoed in the restaurant. He watched her until she walked out of sight before he stood up and left. He paused at the door and looked in my direction.

Oh, no! Did he see me? While I was in a panic, he left. I watched him drive away and for the waiter for the check.

“Miss, someone has paid your bill. He also wanted me to pass you this digestive tablet because you’ll need it.”

Confused, I asked, “Who?”

“You’re not mute?” She was stunned. No wonder she gave me a pitying look when I was choked. Again, I asked, “Who do you mean? Is he the handsome guy in the black suit?”

“I’m sorry to let you down, but it was actually a lady,” she faltered. I was dumbfounded.

Outside the restaurant, I slowed my pace to focus on my thoughts. He pretends he doesn’t care about my divorce in front of Crystal. I know his motive. He wants her to pressure Lyle into it.

I was a little moved. Christopher had assisted me in so many things without my knowledge.

Did he know I was at the restaurant? I was still confused.

I must be down on my luck because I bumped into Yvette and Scarlet at a shopping mall when I was picking a shirt for Christopher. They pulled a mocking grin.

“Yvonne, are you shopping for Lyle? Oh, my. Do you still remember his size? By the way, does he have time to meet you at night? I mean, he basically lives in Tanner residence now.”

“Yvonne, don’t be so rude. Although your sister is not talented or pretty, you have to applaud her love for your brother-in-law. Okay?” Scarlett was a wolf in a sheep’s clothing. Every time I was accused, she would make me suffer more by pretending to back me up.

“I know Yvonne loves him so much, but she is no match for Crystal. That woman said she was not feeling well this morning and was craving deer liver. The next moment, Lyle returned with the food to satisfy her. His unconditional love for her is real! Yvonne, you better divorce him before you ruin your own reputation. You certainly don’t want to be left without a single cent.” Yvette had a hint of smugness in her voice.

Scarlett chimed in. “Yvette, don’t be so blunt. Your sister won’t bear a grudge, but she will get upset.”
