Love Coming from the Least Expected novel Chapter 351

I frantically killed the call, but my phone fell down and rolled into the room through the crack of the door. When I looked up, Christopher was already coming up to me, obviously realizing I was here.

I tried to run away, but Monica was faster. She ran out in tears, but she froze for a moment when she saw me. Then, she got even sadder and ran away with her face in her hands. This time, I could hear her muffled sobs even though she was already some distance away from us.

I felt like banging my head against the wall. I got caught both times in the act. Man, I’m an id*ot.

Christopher leaned against the doorframe, smirking at me. “Come in,” he said.

“Huh, the moon’s looking mighty fine tonight, Chris. I’m just here for some moon-sighting. I can’t sleep, you see. Well, you do your stuff. I’ll be going now.”

I smiled awkwardly, but I was cursing my stupidity inside. What sort of an excuse was that? I obviously saw Monica trying to seduce him! Then I had a bad feeling about it, so I looked up. Wh-Why is he looking at me like he wants to gobble me up? I could feel him taking my clothes off with his eyes, much to my terror.

“So, do you need anything?”

“Oh, you left your phone back in the room, so I send it for you. Sean called you. I’ll be going back to my room now. Don’t stay up too late.” I scurried off like I had seen a ghost, but no matter how fast I tried to run, I couldn’t outrun Christopher.

Christopher dragged me all the way to his room, while I stared down guiltily all the way, like a child who was caught stealing. “Um, it’s getting late, Chris. It’s almost bedtime, so can I get back to sleep? We have to pick Sabrina’s wedding gown for her tomorrow.”

Christopher put me on his lap. “So you heard everything.”

I wanted to lie, but I knew he could see through me, so I nodded. “Yes, I did.”

“You can call her mom since we’re already married.” Christopher patted my head like I was a kid. Then, he took a lollipop out of the table’s drawer and stuffed it into my mouth after he unwrapped it.

“She’ll calm down with time. Monica will get it eventually. Don’t tell me you want to back out again, you dummy. Do it and I’ll spank you until kingdom come.”

“Of course I won’t!” I chose to stand on the side of love this time. Nobody could stop me and Christopher now, but there was something bothering me. I looked at Christopher. “Did you really fall for me back then? Why?”

“Take a guess,” Christopher said mysteriously.

“Dammit. I knew you were lying. I would have remembered it if I had known you then.” I puffed my cheeks.
