Love Coming From The Least Expected novel Chapter 20

Although I managed to cover up the truth about my pregnancy, I ended up in a feeble state, lying frailly on the bed. Meanwhile, Lyle acted like a thoughtful husband in the doctor’s presence, but he left me without hesitation after answering a phone call.

Lyle said he had to deal with some company matters and told me to get some rest. Nonetheless, judging from his worried expression as he talked over the phone, I knew instantly that it was a call from Bianca.

With much difficulty, I got up and walked to the window. Soon, I saw Lyle hugging a lady at the hospital entrance as they left. Although she wasn’t Bianca, she seemed familiar to me, and I couldn’t help but recall some unpleasant memories. But that woman is still in Anglandur. How can she be here?

I shook my head to dismiss those thoughts. Back then, Crystal had left the country resolutely. As such, it was quite unlikely that she would be willing to be a homewrecker, knowing that Lyle and I hadn’t divorced. Moreover, Bianca that b*tch was still pestering Lyle.

I stayed under the blanket and curled myself up, hoping to get some warmth. Nonetheless, my attempt was to no avail. Although it was summer, I felt cold as a shiver ran down my spine.

I tried to get some sleep as the heavy rain pitter-pattered on the window. After quite some time, I felt a tinge of humidity permeating in the air while I was half-asleep. As the coldness overwhelmed me, I shivered and pulled the blanket up to cover my body.

Shortly afterward, I somehow felt a warm object that resembled a heater come up to me. I couldn’t help but wrap myself around it like an octopus. After heaving a sigh of satisfaction, I finally had a sound sleep.

I dreamed that I was in a white hall, and Lyle was standing right in front of me. With a ring in his hand, he proposed to me solemnly. At that moment, tears began to roll down my face. Only when my neck started to prickle did I wake up from the dream.
