Love Coming from the Least Expected

Chapter 248

The next day, under my protests, he finally stopped our fun in the suite. Hence, we got changed and headed outside to watch the sunrise. Standing on the deck, he hugged me from behind as we stared into the sky, watching the sun slowly rise.

“Sir?” After a while, a tall man came over. He had been watching the sunrise on the deck when he noticed us. He looked at Christopher in surprise, then turned to stare at me intently.

Feeling embarrassed by the stare, I turned my head and cleared my throat before Christopher pulled me behind him. He said in displeasure, “What’s wrong with you, Sean? How dare you look at my wife.” Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

“I wasn’t; I didn’t know she’s your wife,” Sean replied as he blushed and looked away. He then said embarrassedly, “So, it turns out you’re already married, Sir. Zachary said you had a girlfriend, but I thought he was trying to lie for you. This is great. The others in the team have always guessed that you were actually gay. Now, we can interact with you freely, and our girlfriends don’t need to worry about you stealing their men.”

I snorted and tried to hold back my laughter. When Christopher glared at me, I quickly turned away. Sean was just too funny, so I could not hold it back anymore. Thus, even with my back turned to them, my shoulders did not stop shaking in laughter.

Christopher gritted his teeth and asked, “Who said that? I’ll kill him.”

Only then did Sean realize what he had just said and covered his mouth. His face turned red, but under Christopher’s oppression, he eventually said righteously, “It’s Zachary.”

I did not believe that Zachary, who was such an honest person, would gossip about Christopher that way. Sure enough, Christopher raised his eyebrows and said, “Come to the back with me.”

“I’d better not, Sir. I really didn’t mean it,” Sean replied, dumbfounded.

“I’ll give you one minute to think. After that, you can come to talk to me at the back, or you can jump down right now and swim back to Avenport.” Christopher then placed me onto the chair beside the deck and patted the top of my head. After saying he would be back in a while, he walked toward the corridor, cracking his knuckles on the way.

I leaned back on the chair and smiled widely. Their relationship’s interesting. Since he called Christopher “Sir,” he was probably part of the team back in the military. But would people in the military be so idle that they could come on a cruise?

As I pondered, I propped up my chin and stared into the golden-red sunlight. It was not too dazzling and was instead warm and comfortable when it shone on my body.

“How interesting, you’re actually here watching the sunrise. We were heading to the dance party over there. Would you like to join us?” Crystal said, lifting her skirt as she walked over and had the same smile she had when she first saw me on this cruise. Next to her were several familiar women. They were probably from her circle of friends in Avenport.

“Thanks, but no thanks!” I replied before yawning and sprawled across the chair. Consequently, the hickeys on my neck were exposed. Noticing that Crystal was staring at my neck, I sat up straight and pulled on my collar. Christopher, you son of a gun. I told you not to leave a mark on my neck, but you did it anyway.

“What’s with your neck, Yvonne? Were you bitten by mosquitoes? I brought some ointment on board. Why don’t I apply it for you?” She then suddenly stepped forward and pulled my collar away. However, I did not react in time. I only regained my senses after all the hickeys on my neck were exposed. Instantly, my gaze turned cold, and I slapped her hand away before readjusting my top.

“Oh, you…” She then suddenly covered her mouth and exclaimed, “Did you really become someone else’s mistress, as Uncle Nathan said? How could you do that? You can tell us if you have any difficulties. We’re a family.”

I already knew that she would bring me trouble. And to slander me, she even involved Nathan. As a result, I replied coldly, “Oh, are we? Don’t try to act like we’re close.”

“Yvonne!” Crystal exclaimed, looking at me like she was wronged.

“Crystal, why are you so bothered about a b*tch like her? Back then, she broke you and Lyle up. It’s her retribution now that she’s a mistress again. I mean, just look at all the marks on her body. How crude.”

Another girl then said, “Exactly. She’s only worthy of being someone’s mistress. I’m just curious as to which man will fall for such a woman.”

“Maybe it’s some random rich man? Some old, fat, and ugly man.”

Upon that, several of them then began to laugh.
