Love Coming from the Least Expected Chapter 17

Looking back now, I wanted to slap myself.
I was in no mood to listen to her anymore, but she kept on
taunting me. “Do you know what Lyle said to me about you?”
No, I don’t want to know.
But she continued, “He said that you’re an old hag. Although he
married you, you’re just an unpaid housekeeper to him.”
I became annoyed after hearing that hurtful remark. So, I picked
up my phone and looked at her. “Why don’t we call Lyle now and
see what he has to say about it?”
Instantly, she panicked and pretended to be calm. “Don’t be so
smug. I’ll kick you out sooner or later.”
Great. That would save me the legal fees.
I walked over to the door and opened it. Then, I gave her a look
that said, “It’s time for you to leave now”.
Only then did she pick up her bag in frustration and rattle toward
me in her high heels.
Just when I thought she was about to walk out the door, she
suddenly stopped in her tracks. And when I least expected it, she
stretched out her hand and shoved my shoulder.

I was caught off guard and stumbled backward before landing on
my hip.
“Yvonne!” Lyle called out when he came back and saw the scene
before him.
However, it was too late. There was a sharp pain in my stomach.
Before Lyle could rush over to break my fall, I had crashed to the

He didn’t even know that I was pregnant, and all he cared about
was whether I hurt myself from the fall.
Before I could ask him to take me to the hospital, I was
interrupted by Bianca, who was fuming away.
She pointed a finger right at me and said connivingly, “Quit the
act. Wasn’t it only a fall? It can’t be that serious as to cause
internal bleeding.”
If I wasn’t in so much pain, I would have gotten up and slapped
her across her face.
But now was not the time to quarrel with her. I tugged at Lyle’s
arm and said anxiously, “Quick! Get me to the hospital.”
Even though I felt that this was not the right time to carry a child
and that I had no intention to keep this pregnancy, I was still
frightened at the thought of miscarrying.
Lyle got into position and was about to lift me up in his arms.
However, Bianca dragged him to his feet to stop him from helping
me up and began to whine at him, “Look at this, Lyle. She broke
my nail.”
This was the first time I felt like killing someone. Who cares about
your broken nail! I’m about to lose my baby!
“Lyle!” I shouted at him to bring his attention back to me. It was
