Love Coming From The Least Expected novel Chapter 266

Crystal’s face turned pale and haggard when she seemed to think of something. Similarly, I caught a glimpse of Lyle staring at me with his face puckered. I paid no heed to the duo and continued treating Christopher’s wound.

When I headed out to retrieve another bucket of water, I finally figured out the reason behind Lyle’s odd expression. He might have taken my statements personally when I told Crystal to leave with the things I no longer wanted.

What the hell? Wasn’t he the one who abandoned me in the first place? He was the one who had an affair with Crystal and insisted on filing for divorce with me! Stop making it seems as if I’m the one at fault!

Immediately after Crystal finished our leftovers with Lyle, they made their way out to get themselves something to eat. Staring at the duo’s departing figure, I couldn’t help but wonder would we make it until others showed up to our rescue.

We weren’t even aware of our precise location, let alone those unaware of the trip. I thought the rescue team might only reach us when we were dead.

It felt dreadful to spend another minute on the deserted island. Occasionally, someone would yell at the top of their lungs in frustration.

Others had tried to start a fire to attract the fisherman’s attention, notifying them there was someone stranded on the deserted island. On top of that, some of them had put on an SOS sign using leaves and branches.

We would take turns to be on the lookout for passing ships in the hope of someone showing up to our rescue. Unfortunately for us, not a single ship had shown up over the past two days.

Everyone was slowly overwhelmed by fear and a sense of insecurity. To make things worse, we were almost running out of water. In other words, we might pass on due to dehydration. It was then I sneaked my way to get myself a bottle of water.

Crystal, who couldn’t bring herself to fall asleep, went after me. She kept a serving of water in a coconut husk when she noticed what I was up to.
