Love Coming From The Least Expected novel Chapter 254

“Hahaha. Sounds great,” I smiled awkwardly. There was no way I was going to thank Lyle, but I have definitely heard about John.

I got invited to a party in the afternoon, so I went and got ready at my dressing table. The initial thought was to go with a more enigmatic appeal, with some heavy eye shadow, but it turned out a little too seductive for my liking. Christopher’s teammates would be there as well, so I really do not want to give them the wrong impression.

Thus, I removed the makeup and went with something clean and simple. In the end, after applying some lipstick, the reflection inside the mirror looked cute and elegant, just the way I wanted it. So, I gave my reflection a firm nod of approval before nagging at Christopher to get dressed.

It looked like he was deep in thought with a stern look on his face. I had to shout at him repeatedly before I got a response. “Didn’t you say you don’t like these sorts of events? Why are you so excited all of a sudden?” Christopher snapped out of it and spoke.

“Not all of the people on the boat are from Avenport, so there will only be a few familiar faces. I’m going to be fine. No one’s going to care.” I told him as I picked up my sapphire necklace. Sabrina recommended this place to me so I could relax.

It would have been so much better if Lyle and Crystal were not here, though.

So, after Christopher changed into something more formal, he took me by the hand and we went to the entrance of the hall together. A receptionist came along and gifted us a rose, which Christopher handed to me before we walked in.

While we were there, I figured that someone would definitely recognize Christopher since he was a prominent person in Avenport. He should be famous enough that even people from other places would know about him. And lo and behold, people started approaching us and greeted him hospitably.

After a bit of conversation, Christopher came to me and held out his hands to me. “O fair lady, may I have the pleasure of dancing with you?”

So, I placed my hand in his, and he led me onto the dance floor. “Let it be known. I’m not much of a dancer. I still remember the look on Darius’ face when I stepped on his feet back then.
