Love Coming from the Least Expected

Chapter 246

“Yvonne, are you going on a trip with Christopher?” Crystal asked, looking at us inquisitively. “What a coincidence. Lyle and I are going too. Why don’t we group up? It’s good to have people watching out for you.”

Oh, f*ck off. I hated when Crystal looked at others with her eyes squinted. Every time she did that, anything she said or came out of her mouth would not turn out to be anything good. Although she looked gentle and was smiling from ear to ear, she was definitely thinking about how to deal with me.

“That’ll be too troublesome,” I said coldly.

“What do you mean by that, Yvonne? We’re cousins, and you also used to be with Lyle. In any case, we grew up together. I know you’re hurt because I’m together with Lyle. I’ll apologize, okay?” she replied.

“Sorry, I don’t want my perfect travels to become unpleasant because of some people. Only a fool would invite trouble in,” Christopher said as he held my waist and glared at Crystal. Then, he took my arm and walked past the pair.

Just then, Lyle yelled for us to stop. He stared at our clasped hands, seemingly very angry since his expression was full of rage. I was confused by his reaction. I’m not even related to him anymore. Why’s he acting as if I cheated on him?

In retaliation, I leaned into Christopher and kissed him. At the same time, he turned over and held my face in his hands. Then, we exchanged a deep, wet kiss. After we broke apart, I breathed unsteadily as

I asked, “Is there a problem?”

“Do you have to be with him?” Lyle shouted as he clenched his fists tightly.

“I can feel that you care a lot for your ex-wife. But as your friend, Lyle, I have to give you some advice. Take good care of your woman. Don’t go around fantasizing about other’s wives,” Christopher replied. A displeased gaze then flickered across his eyes. It was obvious that Lyle’s words angered him.

Although that minor episode happened, it did not affect our travels. We soon threw away all thoughts of the other couple and ran toward our ship. While facing the salty seas and with the seagulls hovering overhead, his laughter was sweet and beautiful.

“Slow down, Christopher. I can’t keep up,” I said as I chased after him.

He then turned back and gave me a wicked smile. “I can’t be slow. Our family custom is that after getting married and while taking public transport, the man has to get on first before he helps to pull the woman up. Otherwise, he’ll be under his wife’s control forever. I want to be on top.”

What? Is there such a custom? I completely forgot that he loved to joke around. Thus, I did not notice the implied meaning in his last sentence before immediately running after him. However, after a while, I realized that I could not catch up. Thus, I rolled my eyes and pretended to sprain my ankle. I shouted out, then squatted down.

“What happened? Are you okay?” Indeed, he instantly looked back at me.

When he got closer, I forcefully pulled him backward and quickly ran to the deck to stand somewhere high up. He was standing where I previously was with his hands in his pockets, looking at me affectionately. Then, I smiled triumphantly at him and said, “I got here first. Haha, you’re done for. You’re going to be under my control for the rest of your life.”

Subsequently, he walked in time with the traffic flow and slowly approached me. Once he was close enough, he pulled me into his arms and smiled. “Idiot. I’ve already been under your control a long time ago.”

In response, I jumped up and kissed him on the cheek, then said cockily, “I don’t care. Anyway, I’ve won. You can’t escape from me forever.”

“Did Sabrina teach you this? Don’t worry. I brought the wedding gift she gave you. You can take a good look later.” After he spoke, he then blew lightly on my ear. “It turns out my darling likes being the top so much. You should’ve told me earlier. I’d be delighted to let you do so.”

Instantly, I choked on my saliva once I realized that I was being teased again. “Assh*le!”

The both of us then began to chase each other on the deck. Meanwhile, at a distance, Lyle and Crystal kept staring in our direction with a dark look in their gaze. Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
