Love Coming From The Least Expected novel Chapter 187

I walked out of the cafe with Darius’ number in my hand. The scrawny handwriting on the note reminded me of Christopher’s. They were indeed brothers.

Does this mean that Darius has acknowledged me?

He really was an open-minded brother.

I did not tell Christopher what went down, lest he made fun of me. Well, could he really blame me when anyone from his family could technically crush me like a bug?

His father used to be the governor and had disciples all over Avenport while his mother was an iron lady running the Lane family empire. Though holding much power and authority, the two were surprisingly friendly and approachable.

Besides, his brother was the mayor as well. It was a miracle that Christopher did not turn out to be a playboy who only knew how to fool around, and was even more impressive considering he was actually a very bright man.

I had no idea what he used to do in the military, but I supposed he had to be one of the more outstanding ones.

Five days later, I went to the café and met up with Lyle as promised. It seemed like he had been having a good time because the man was beaming.

The way he looked reminded me of when I first met him when we were eighteen. After all, he already had children with Crystal. He was just happy.

At the sight of me, the trace of a smile disappeared from his face, and he looked troubled. Maybe he thought that his happy looks would make me misunderstand that he still cared about me. However, I just thought his grim look was doing us both a favor.

He could have just dropped his hypocritical act. I snorted to myself and said nothing. After all, we were going to be strangers after today.

Some people believed in staying friends after breaking up with somebody, but I knew it was just a bald-faced lie that even children wouldn’t believe. Couples who had children together could even turn into enemies after getting a divorce, much less us.
