Love Coming from the Least Expected Chapter 20

Although I managed to cover up the truth about my pregnancy, I
ended up in a feeble state, lying frailly on the bed. Meanwhile,
Lyle acted like a thoughtful husband in the doctor’s presence, but
he left me without hesitation after answering a phone call.
Lyle said he had to deal with some company matters and told me
to get some rest. Nonetheless, judging from his worried
expression as he talked over the phone, I knew instantly that it
was a call from Bianca.
With much difficulty, I got up and walked to the window. Soon, I
saw Lyle hugging a lady at the hospital entrance as they left.
Although she wasn’t Bianca, she seemed familiar to me, and I
couldn’t help but recall some unpleasant memories. But that
woman is still in Anglandur. How can she be here?
I shook my head to dismiss those thoughts. Back then, Crystal
had left the country resolutely. As such, it was quite unlikely that
she would be willing to be a homewrecker, knowing that Lyle and
I hadn’t divorced. Moreover, Bianca that b*tch was still pestering
Lyle.

I stayed under the blanket and curled myself up, hoping to get
some warmth. Nonetheless, my attempt was to no avail.
Although it was summer, I felt cold as a shiver ran down my
spine.
I tried to get some sleep as the heavy rain pitter-pattered on the
window. After quite some time, I felt a tinge of humidity
permeating in the air while I was half-asleep. As the coldness
overwhelmed me, I shivered and pulled the blanket up to cover
my body.
Shortly afterward, I somehow felt a warm object that resembled
a heater come up to me. I couldn’t help but wrap myself around it
like an octopus. After heaving a sigh of satisfaction, I finally had a
sound sleep.
I dreamed that I was in a white hall, and Lyle was standing right
in front of me. With a ring in his hand, he proposed to me
solemnly. At that moment, tears began to roll down my face.
Only when my neck started to prickle did I wake up from the
dream.
Assuming that there was a mosquito on my neck, I smacked it
while my eyes remained shut. The next moment, I felt that
something was off and immediately opened my eyes. Under the
dim light, I saw Christopher applying some ointment on the
bruises on my neck.
There was a mixture of worry and guilt in his obsidian black eyes.
Seeing that I had woken up, he applied the ointment gently and
said, “Didn’t I ask you to call me at once whenever you are in
trouble? Why did you hide it from me?”
Although Christopher was reprimanding me, I couldn’t help but
feel touched. I had a miscarriage due to Lyle’s mistress. However,
the man who accompanied me wasn’t Lyle but someone with
whom I had a one-night stand to retaliate against Lyle.
