Love Coming from the Least Expected novel Chapter 142

“Well, Mr. Ziegler and his wife were hospitable and chatted with me for quite some time. By the way, Mrs. Ziegler is pregnant again, and Mr. Ziegler became extra cautious and took good care of her. Once he received the news about her pregnancy, he carried her up to leave the party, for he wanted to avoid all possible accidents. I’m sure he is overjoyed to have a child at this age. I guess there will be a celebration party for the baby a year later.”

“Really? Anyway, everyone in Avenport knows that Mason loves his wife very much. Lyle, you should learn from him.” Sharon glanced at Lyle.

I chuckled awkwardly at it, while Lyle also looked embarrassed. The next moment, he came up to me, held my hand, and said to Sharon, “Grandma, please get more rest. Don’t worry about us because we’re already adults. Instead, you should focus on taking good care of yourself.”

Since Sharon had good connections, I thought she probably knew what happened during the party. Nevertheless, I refrained from talking about it because she didn’t mention it. Her biggest wish was that Lyle and I could love each other and even give birth to a healthy kid. Unfortunately, it wouldn’t come true.

Meanwhile, I thought Sharon was seriously ill, given that Lyle put on an act before Sharon.

After talking for a while, Sharon looked rather tired. I tucked her in the bed and walked out of the ward with Lyle. The next moment, I flung his hand away and went to the doctor’s office to get more information about Sharon’s condition.

I was heavy-hearted at that moment. Since Sharon was old and had high blood pressure, she would feel dizzy from time to time and couldn’t make it better by having medicine. As such, she had to stay in the hospital and undergo various medical checkups.

Lyle’s phone rang several times, and I remembered the ringtone. He loved to assign a different ringtone to those who were important to him. For instance, the ringtones for Benjamin and Sharon weren’t the same. Given that the ringtone I heard was a romantic piano piece, it was, no doubt, Crystal’s call.

He answered the call and spoke softly without avoiding me. Hence, I could hear the woman’s voice. After the call ended, he said, “If you’re free anytime in these few days, we can sign the divorce agreement. Let’s not delay things further.”

Instantly, I giggled and replied, “I might be shameless, yet someone is worse than me. Don’t you always loathe me for being a filthy woman? What a coincidence, for I loathe you as well. In that case, why don’t we separate as soon as possible? If we force ourselves to be together, I might eventually end my life or take yours in the end.”

Shocked to hear my threatening remark, he asked, “Do you hate me so much?”

“What do you think?” I responded and blinked my eyes. Deep down, I was shocked by myself for being so composed. Initially, I thought that I would beat Lyle once I came back and saw him. I probably couldn’t win the fight, but I could blow the matter out of proportion and force him to divorce me. Nonetheless, I was sane enough to prevent myself from doing so.

“By the way, there is a third possibility—I die because of Crystal. Which option do you prefer? Well, we can try one by one.”
