Love Coming From The Least Expected novel Chapter 537

“The Andersons!” Sharon exclaimed, not exactly knowing where to start with. “You must have encountered some problems related to the family to ask me that. I don’t know much about them now, but back in my days, the Andersons are one of the most prominent families in Avenport. Their power is much stronger than the Smiths and the Tanners, and that can be proven by the fact that your dad was able to make a name out of their support.”

I had never heard of this before. All I knew was that my grandparents died in an accident before I could meet them. I never knew that the Andersons were so powerful.

“Your Uncle Robert was a very talented young man. I saw him twice at parties and we had a collaboration once. Alas, his parents passed away in an accident and his investments went wrong. I guess he couldn’t take it anymore and committed suicide.”

“Did Uncle Robert really jump from Centurion Tower?” That must be the end of the Andersons’ glory after Uncle Robert’s death.

“Your mom must have already told you. It’s true. Your mom had such a hard time dealing with the loss of family and your father’s infidelity that I wasn’t surprised at all when she finally left him for good. Your mom may seem gentle and forgiving, but deep down she is a tough person who will not endure such humiliation.”

Listening to what Sharon said, my heart sank. Despite being angry with my mother, I knew perfectly well that she was in a difficult spot. Even Sharon, who was not part of our family, could tell.

However, at the thought of me and Christopher’s bleak future, I couldn’t help feeling sad.

A Porsche stopped at the gate and Lyle came down from the car. When he noticed me standing beside Sharon, he paused for a brief moment before resuming his pace. Handing some documents to Sharon, he said, “I’ve brought these as requested. All Yvonne has to do is sign on them.”

“Since Eve is here, how about we have dinner together?” As Sharon turned around and asked Molly to prepare food, I hurriedly declined, “It’s okay. I still have things to settle.”

“All right then.” She handed the documents to me. “This is what your mom wants. Make sure to give it to her. You should give Eve a lift home, Lyle.”
