Love Coming From The Least Expected novel Chapter 146

Standing at the entrance, I looked at my hand before looking back at the hospital lobby. As if I was possessed, I dashed to a tree and started banging my head against it.

Why did I turn down the offer? What’s wrong with me? So what if I’m thick-skinned? No one would blame me for that.

My action had inevitably attracted strange looks from some passersby. A little girl pointed at me and asked her mother, “Mommy, why is that woman banging her head against the tree? Won’t she get hurt?”

“Stop staring at that crazy woman,” the mother said and ushered her child away as though I was a contagious disease.

I lifted my chin and scoffed. I’m indeed a crazy person who refused a pile of free money.

Back to the office, I approached one of my colleagues and asked her, “Mave, if someone offers you twenty million and all you need to do is sign some papers, will you take it?”

She looked at me bewilderedly. “You’re speaking nonsense.”

I burst out laughing, realizing that I rejected the money because I was firm in my objective. Accepting the shares would only further complicate my estranged relationship with Lyle.

I no longer cared what happened between Lyle and Crystal. Although I didn’t understand Sharon’s aversion to Crystal, that was Lyle’s problem. Since he was so deeply in love with her, he would have to smooth things out with Sharon.
