Love Coming From The Least Expected novel Chapter 162

I turned back, quietly looking out from the flower field. Lyle and Crystal were talking in the woods and happened to be right behind me. Immediately, I mentally scolded myself for having such bad luck, for I saw them no matter where I went.

“Lyle, do you really not know why I’m leaving?” she asked, leaning against the tree trunk with an expression full of sadness and melancholy. “The same reason why I came back; you’ve always been very clear of it.”

“I know. I really do. But Crystal, you know my feelings. Why do you suddenly have to leave? Are you going to abandon me?” he asked, pulling her into a hug. “I’ve torn the plane ticket. Let’s not leave. We’ll stay in Avenport and never separate ever again.”

“But I don’t want to go on like this anymore. You have a wife and family, so every time I go out with you, everyone looks at me strangely. Public opinion of me has also been poor. For you, I can accept the public condemnation, but I can’t accept that my identity is merely your wife’s cousin.”

She sighed, then laughed again. “Recently, I’ve been thinking about something. Am I wrong to come back? If I didn’t come back, you’ll always be with Yvonne and won’t be in such a difficult position either.”

“I’m not in a difficult position. Really. Crystal, I don’t want to lose you.” His voice was full of affection every time he said Crystal’s name. Then, he leaned forward, wanting to kiss her, but she pushed him away.

“I don’t want to wait anymore, Lyle. Since you can’t get over her and don’t want to get a divorce, why shouldn’t I fulfill your wishes? If you actually tore the ticket, I can book another one. It’s really goodbye this time, Lyle.”

The moment I heard her words, I recalled what Christopher had said to her that morning at Moon Village Restaurant. It seemed as though she indeed wanted to force Lyle. Otherwise, she would not use the plane ticket trick.

“Okay, I’ll get a divorce. I’ll do it tomorrow. Don’t leave. Once I get a divorce, and everything subsides, we’ll hold a grand wedding so that you can marry me in style, okay?” he replied. He finally gritted his teeth and talked about the divorce.
