Love Coming From The Least Expected novel Chapter 128

“No, it’s your Mom,” Darius replied melancholically. His reply took me by surprise as he lost himself in another train of thoughts.

“D-Do you know her?” Never had I heard anything about my mom ever since she left. To be precise, I couldn’t get my hands on her whereabouts. It felt as though she had disappeared into thin air.

Nathan once said Mom had eloped with another man, but I refused to believe him. I held a grudge against her for leaving me alone when I needed her the most.

If she had planned to leave me, she shouldn’t have brought me to into this world. I ended up suffering because of her—being bullied and missing my mother sorely.

Most of the time, I was jealous of Crystal because she had a protective mother—someone would look after her and support her in every stage of her life.

“Yes. We were schoolmates. I encountered her during homecoming.” Darius kept his reply short and simple.

I was confused. Christopher once told me his brother had doted on him since young due to their huge age gap—his brother was thirteen years older than him. In other words, Darius was merely eleven years older than me.

My mother gave birth to me when she was twenty years old. Thus, it wouldn’t make any sense for them to be schoolmates. Conscious of the questions I had in mind, he said, “I was part of the academic acceleration program. I admitted into college when I was thirteen.”

I gaped at his reply. When I thought no one could beat Christopher, Darius proved me wrong by telling me he was a college freshman when he was just thirteen years old.

Seconds after I snapped out of confusion, I whispered, “Do you know anything about her?”

Actually, I wanted to know if he had seen her over the past few years, but I thought that would be inappropriate since they were merely schoolmates.
