Love Coming From The Least Expected novel Chapter 640

I already knew that when I accidentally listened in on Mom and Dad’s conversation that day. After seeing how resolute she was about the matter with Christopher, I realized that she would never compromise.

I felt a little lost. Why was Mom acting so differently ever since she returned?

Crystal seemed to be the only one who was benefitting from this. She got everything she wanted including a promising future ahead of her. Meanwhile, I was once again living in her shadows.

“Get out!” Upon returning to the Goldstein residence, Isabelle pulled me out of the car. She was trembling in anger as she grabbed my arm, and her nails were digging into my flesh.

“Mom, it hurts!” I quickened my footsteps to catch up with her.

We arrived at the living room, and Isabelle suddenly slapped me hard on the face. Instantly, my cheek went numb.

I covered my cheek as I looked at Isabelle in disbelief. This was the first time she hit me this hard. However, she was still not done yet. Raising her hand, she slapped me again across the other cheek.

“How many times have I told you to stay away from Christopher? He’s the son of our enemy. Julia killed your Uncle Robert! You told me to give you more time to digest this, but you’re seeing him in secret! Did you not understand a word I told you?” Isabelle yelled at me.

I was still dumbfounded at the fact that my mother just slapped me twice.
