Love Coming from the Least Expected

Chapter 260



Chapter 260

The man took a few glimpses of Crystal’s exposed cleavage and pulled her in. “Hehe. Sure. Stand beside me. I’ll take care of you.”

From my angle, I could see it very clearly. How Crystal was intentional facing away from Lyle and how she pulled the man’s hand into her shirt, licking her lips coquettishly. “You’re so kind, mister.”

I was disgusted, seeing that Lyle was completely unaware of what went on as he tirelessly tried to get a signal. I shook my head. Lyle trusts Crystal too much. It’s totally different from how we used to be.

But then, Crystal smiled and turned towards Lyle. “Lyle, come quick. This kind man here is willing to let us cut the queue.”

Lyle hurried over, and soon there was a commotion at the front, but I did not concern myself with it. Right then, there was another explosion coming from the left side of the ship.

This time, it was fairly close. As soon as that happened, smoke blurred out my vision, and the ship started shaking violently. Fire burst out as splinters flew everywhere. The people at the epicenter of the blast were instantly engulfed in flame.

The people around it, however, were not as lucky. Their bodies were blown into pieces. There was even a head that flew from the blast towards me and Christopher. We were both on the floor at the moment with me in his embrace, so all I could feel was the heat until that head appeared beside my hand.

It was the head of a fine young man, eyes wide open and covered in blood.

Life was fragile. You could be alive and kicking for one second and blown to bits in the next. No one would care about what happened to the remains, and it would just sink into oblivion along with the ship.

However, when I saw the head, I did not even make a sound. I did not even have time to be afraid because a man pointed at the blast and shouted, “The lifeboats got destroyed! We’re all doomed!”

He was crying, a six-foot-tall man, crying, while I was doing my best not to shed a tear.

“There are rafts over there. Let’s go!” Christopher did not panic. On the contrary, he became calmer, pushing through the crowd with me in his hand. After a brief moment, he was afraid that we would get separated again, so he decided to tie our hands together with the rope he picked up along the way.

Suddenly, the mast snapped because of the shaking and fell directly towards me. I froze up and closed my eyes, not knowing what to do. I was in shock, and my legs just would not budge.

Christopher immediately shielded me with his body as the mast barely missed us, falling right beside us.

The tremor I felt as it smashed onto the ground reminded me how close death was at that moment.

“Lyle, Lyle! Are you okay? What happened? Wake up! Is there someone who can help us?” Crystal was crying while holding onto Lyle’s hand.

I turned around and saw that Lyle was lying on the ground with Crystal in front of him. It looked like he pushed her out of the way and got hit by the mast. His leg was under it, mangled. “Crystal, leave me be and run!” Lyle’s face was pale as snow.

I turned towards Christopher and met eyes with him. He instantly understood what I was thinking and headed over to Lyle with me. We tried pushing the mast away, but it was just too heavy.

“Come help!” I shouted at Crystal seeing that all she did was cry. Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

With that, Crystal immediately got up and helped us. With our forces combined, we managed to push the mast away, letting Lyle escape. That said, he could only stand with Crystal’s help as his left leg was covered in blood.
