Love Coming From The Least Expected novel Chapter 375

I sighed exasperatedly. I already knew what Nathan was trying to say, and I already realized who I had bumped into on the way here. Obviously, that was Mitchell Martin, Monica’s father. It was no wonder he would speak to me in such a tone.

Nathan had always assumed I was just Christopher’s mistress. He had even tried to make some connections through me so he could collaborate with the Lane family. Now that Mitchell was causing problems, Nathan didn’t even think twice before demanding that I leave Christopher.

“That’s right, Eve. Before this, at least you were officially married to Lyle. Now you’re just a mistress. Where’s the fun in that? The Tanner family may not be one of the most prestigious families in the community, but we are still respected. You don’t have to sink that low. If you’re really having a hard time, you could always come back. We’ll be waiting with open arms,” Yvette said with a sickly saccharine smile.

“I’ll have to say no to that. If I returned to the Tanner family, I might get buried alive by all of you,” I said with a smile. “Who was the one who told you I was Christopher’s mistress? Was it Mitchell?”

“What else could you be? Do you know how the tabloids are making you sound? If I hadn’t been so busy at the company, I would have asked you to come back. Did you think Christopher announcing your relationship would have helped you clear your name? Anyway, you should move out of his place as soon as possible. If you have nowhere else to go, you can always move back in with us until after Mr. Lane and Ms. Martin’s wedding.”

Nathan was clearly getting impatient at the sight of my nonchalance and casual insults. He seemed to be just a step away from picking me up by the neck and shaking me if I didn’t give him the answer I wanted.

I hate you so much, I cursed inwardly. Even though he was my father, I had hated him for a long time. He never spoke to me like how a father should speak to his daughter. He treated me like I was a stranger and was even willing to immediately assume that I was just Christopher’s mistress.

I burst out into laughter, the type that caused tears to stream from my eyes. I couldn’t help but slap the table in my fit of giggles.
