Love Coming from the Least Expected novel Chapter 290

It then occurred to me that I had never once considered Christopher’s dream.

To me, he was someone who never lacked a thing. He had everything anyone could ever dream of. When I first knew him, I had thought of him as a prodigal spoiled brat.

“His dream was to be a military leader so he could protect the country, but one day, he decided to give it up and leave the army. Everyone was confused by his decision, but when I saw you, I finally understood why he stopped pursuing his dream. If you really love him, you should stop standing in his way. You should let him chase after his dream without any reservation.”

I never once thought I would one day become a stumbling block to the path of the person I loved most.

I wondered what else Christopher had sacrificed for me.

However, it was exactly because he had given up so much for our relationship that I could not just opt-out. “Ms. Martin, your advice is well-received, but I will never let go of him. Giving up right now will be the biggest disservice to him after all he has done for me.”

At that, Monica glared at me in disbelief and anger. “I… I can’t believe you can be this selfish.” I believed she wanted to say something blunter, but because she was born a lady, she could not bring herself to utter any despicable words.

“Is this Ms. Martin or her jealousy talking?” The door suddenly opened, revealing Sabrina, who stood at the entrance. “You’re the one who’s selfish here, Ms. Martin. All you can think of is how great you are and how Christopher is worthy is you, but too bad, he’s not interested. You knew Eve lost her sight because she saved him. I can’t believe you still have the audacity to discredit her sacrifice like this. You should keep your jealousy in check. Not even the thickest makeup can cover that up.”

Sabrina berated Monica mercilessly after she walked in.

“Come on, do you really take her seriously? You shouldn’t waver just because of what she said. Have you forgotten everything Christopher has done for you? He instantly clarified the misunderstanding about his engagement just because you were sad over it. Is this still not enough for you to see how much he cares for you?”

Sabrina ruffled my hair and sat down. “Stop beating yourself over something that is not even your fault. I’ll get angry with you if you keep sulking.”

“But I can’t see a thing now, Sabby. Something happened just now, and I tried getting the nurse to come to check on Christopher, but I ended up spilling hot water on him. Does this mean I can only sit by and watch without being able to do anything in the future when he’s sick? I won’t be able to take care of him. This is so unfair!” I ranted, covering my face with my hands.

Sabrina chided, “There’s no such thing as fairness when it comes to love. A relationship is reciprocal; both parties need to make sacrifices. Cut this crap out or I’m not gonna talk to you anymore.”
