Love Coming From The Least Expected novel Chapter 401

Sensing an awkwardness in the atmosphere, I was just about to persuade Remington, when we were interrupted by Crystal’s dreary voice.

“Spencer, please do not be upset with Remington over me. It was my fault. I was worried about Yvonne and so I said something offensive. I’m sorry, Remington.

Harumph! Julian snorted and left in a huff, perhaps offended by Remington.

I was fortunate enough to be treated as a distinguished guest because of Christopher and was seated at the main table with Remington. Unfortunately, Crystal was also at the main table which irritated me.

There was a live exhibition as one of the artists sketched the scene of the mingling guests with just a few strokes of the pencil. I quietly stole a glance at Remington and then glared at him rather angrily. With a tone of displeasure, I said, “You can see quite normally, so why you pretended to be blind?”

“Not long ago, I had an eye infection. The doctor told me to avoid sunlight by wearing sunglasses. I did not deceive you on purpose.” Remington smiled at me apologetically.

He was so quick to apologize that it made me seem rather petty. Immediately, I felt embarrassed. In a low voice, I said, “I’m sorry that I have misjudged you. It was my fault that you got a tongue lashing from Crystal. Thanks to your kindness, I did not have to make a quiet exit.”

“That was nothing. Please don’t mention it.” Remington replied calmly.

“It is possible that this molehill would turn into a mountain.” I had to warn Remington. “Just now, we were photographed by reporters. It is possible that the write-up in the papers would make it into something serious. I have a bad reputation, so you have to be mentally prepared.”

“That bad?” Remington asked curiously. “Do you have a bad name?”

“Well, not that bad, but quite terrible!” Nobody has ever written nice things about me. Even my family members say that. “If the reporters ask you for comments. Just put all the blame on me. Haha.”

“I can only tell the truth. As a man, I cannot put all the blame on a lady to avoid getting into trouble. That would be unbecoming of a man.”
