LOVE COMING FROM THE LEAST EXPECTED - Season 2 Episode 98

“I’ll think about it!” I did not know whether I still had that kind of enthusiasm to take a gamble and pursue my dream.

Then, seeing that I was not in high spirits, he did not continue the topic.

In the next few days, Christopher and I had a very wild time together. Just like he said, he hugged me to sleep every night, and we made love, did all kinds of crazy things in bed every day.

During that time, I had almost forgotten who I was. Fortunately, I did not forget that I still had to go to work.

Although my work was easy and no one would say anything if I made mistakes occasionally, I still worked hard. In my spare time, I would flip through the newspapers only to find that Crystal was in it again.

When she was previously in the newspapers, she was negatively perceived because of me and was in a difficult position. Nevertheless, she always had a way to make everyone think she was a beautiful, innocent person. As long as she cried while looking at everyone aggrievedly, it was as if they would all believe she was innocent. It was indeed a world that focused on appearances.

This time, she was to participate in an art exhibition, so she sent over her work. The centerpiece was said to depict a hundred birds facing a phoenix and was anticipated by many.

As I put the newspaper down, I recalled what Christopher said. My fingers indeed itched. After all, I was not someone who liked to work a nine-to-five job. Otherwise, when I studied finance back then, I would not have stopped after only a while.

After work, I unexpectedly got a call from Sharon. She wanted me to go to the hospital. Since she did not know about my divorce with Lyle, I was nervous and afraid that she would find out. However, since things had turned out pretty ugly the other time, it was rather impossible that she did not know.

With fruit in my hands, I approached the hospital, a little afraid to go in.

What should I tell her when I’m inside? Do I continue to lie to her or tell the truth?

Unexpectedly, Sharon did not ask me anything. Once I went in, she began to chat about everyday topics with me. Seeing that I looked healthy, she even praised me for becoming more beautiful recently. I must say, a woman did look better if she lived well.

With Christopher’s care, I had indeed been living a good, luxurious life recently.

He would cook, cheer me up, and would give me everything I wanted. Other than the fact that he went hard on me when we were in bed, everything else was good. When I was doing my makeup in the morning, I even found that I had gained some weight. As a result, the dimples I had when I smiled were almost gone.

“You young people are busy all day long. I’ve been in the hospital, but you guys don’t even come and visit me. Ah, once you’re old, you’ll really be ignored. You brat, I’ve loved you in vain,” she said, pretending to be angry as she patted my hand.

I hurriedly smiled. “I’m here now, Grandma. Don’t be angry. I promise to keep you company often in the future, okay?”

Lyle cares about Grandma quite a bit. Doesn’t he come to visit? There’s also Crystal. Since they’re going to get married, doesn’t he plan to bring her over?

“That’s more like it. Even if you’re divorced, don’t tell me you don’t intend to see me as your grandma anymore?” she suddenly replied.

At that moment, my heart skipped a beat, and I looked over at her. There was a flicker of light in her turbid eyes that was sharp enough to see through everything. I lowered my head and whispered, “I’m sorry, Grandma. I was too agitated that day. I shouldn’t have done that.”

“It’s not your fault!” she said, sighing heavily. “I know my grandson. Crystal’s going to be the calamity in his life. But I can’t control him for too long. I hope he can realize the truth in time and not be tricked by her.”

Grandma’s attitude toward Crystal can’t be worst. What exactly did Crystal do back then? Grandma’s so fearful of her.

“It’s also good that you’ve divorced. Back then, I was selfish. I shouldn’t have trapped you because of my selfish desires. If you find someone suitable next time, remember to tell me. I’ll give you a big check as your wedding gift.” She then sighed again.

“You’ve suffered because of the kidnapping incident last time. Too bad things were already over when I found out about it. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have let you suffer anymore; and I also don’t have the heart to

make you stay with Lyle. Please remember to tell me if you face any difficulties in the future.”
