Love Coming From The Least Expected novel Chapter 58

He seemed to be undefeatable when it came to a battle of wits. I could learn a thing or two from him. Amidst all the chaos, I accidentally caught sight of Crystal leaning on Wendy with a pitiful look on her face. The moment she noticed me staring, she arched an eyebrow.

“You lost,” mouthed Crystal smugly.

She was right. I had lost. In fact, I never had a chance to begin with. If Christopher and Sabrina had not shown up to save the day, things would have been worst. I would be publicly labeled a mistress, cast aside, and stomped on.

With all my might, I yanked off my wedding ring and handed it over to Lyle. “Two years ago, after you broke up with Crystal, it was you who came and asked my hand in marriage. You promised me a lifetime of happiness. That was why I married you. Now, I’m giving this ring back to you. Since you want us to be divorced, I’ll fulfill your wish.”

That was the first time I discussed the matters of our divorce in front of others. Lyle gaped at me, shocked. Seemingly hesitant, he did not accept the ring. Scoffing at the idea that he was reminiscing about our memories together, I grabbed his hand and pressed the ring down onto his palm.

“Lyle!” Crystal called out to Lyle with tears in her eyes. Their loving and affectionate gazes locked over the crowd. I rolled my eyes, annoyed. I had seen this scene happened so many times I was sick of it.

Crystal had made her intention crystal clear that day. Lyle was the reason she had returned. As for me, I no longer had the will to fight.

Just then, a crowd of reporters swarmed into the restaurant. Camera flashes and the clicking of shutters could be heard as they hurried over to us. While running, some of the reporters starting asking questions, shoving their microphones towards Crystal. “Ms. Yates, as an up-and-coming artist, you are well-known all over the world. However, rumor has it that you are a homewrecker. Is that true?”

“Mr. Smith, what is your relationship with Ms. Yates? Are you married? Who’s your wife? If Ms. Yates were to marry you, what will happen to your wife? Are you sure you want to abandon your wife?”
