Love Coming from the Least Expected

Chapter 441

Wendy had a hot temper and always saw Crystal as her daughter-in-law. To her, I was nothing but a caregiver in charge of looking after Lyle.

As if she had seen something terrifying, she was screaming at the top of her lungs and shoving everyone around her aside as she made her way toward me. “Because of you, Crystal has lost her child, and I have lost my grandson! How dare you show your face here, Yvonne? You b*tch, are you here to screw up the wedding? I won’t let you have your way!”

Why does she always think that I’m trying to hurt or sabotage someone when the real villain has been right beside her the whole time? With that in mind, I couldn’t help but wonder if Wendy was suffering from persecutory delusion.

“Mom, the wedding is about to start, and we’ve still got a lot of guests to greet,” Lyle interrupted her. Back then, he would’ve taken her side and joined her in insulting me without any hesitation, but that no longer seemed to be the case.

“To hell with greeting them! I’m telling you, Yvonne is nothing but trouble! I mean, look at how she’s still hanging around you after being with Christopher! I bet she’s up to no good showing up here today. Make sure to keep her out of the hall, or she’ll bring bad luck to both of you! Honestly, I would’ve kicked her a*s if it weren’t your big day today!” Wendy shouted with her finger pointed at me.

Had Christopher not been standing next to me at the time, her nails would probably have jabbed into my forehead by now.

“My apologies. You see, I wasn’t planning on coming either, but your son came to me a few days ago. He told me he was going to get married and wanted to discuss with me what I should give him as a wedding gift. It’d be rude to refuse his sincere invitation now, wouldn’t you agree?” I said while handing Wendy the wedding invitation that Lyle and Crystal gave me.

After that, I simply kept quiet and waited to see what else she would say to me.

Wendy glanced at the invitations before looking at Lyle in shock. “Why’d you invite her? Have you not had enough trouble from her as it is? Your son is dead because of her! The Lane family’s powerful influence is the only thing keeping her out of prison right now!”

There were a lot of people at the entrance of the hotel, and Wendy’s actions were attracting a lot of attention from them. Some of them were pointing fingers at me and making fun of us. Seriously, does the word “discreet” mean anything to Wendy at all? It’s no wonder Sharon doesn’t like her either! She doesn’t know when to stop!

There was a look of surprise in Lyle’s eyes when he saw my makeup, but it quickly faded when he saw Christopher standing right next to me. “She’s my ex-wife. It’s only natural that I have her watch me get married, right?”

Unsure of what Lyle was playing at, Wendy shot me a threatening glare and said, “You’d better get the hell out of here, Yvonne! I’ll skin you alive if you dare ruin my son’s wedding! A homewrecker like you has no right to attend the wedding of your ex-husband! You’d better stay away from Lyle if you know what’s good for you!”

“Pfft!” Christopher let out a snicker all of a sudden. He then wrapped an arm around my waist as he said with a chuckle, “You’re so funny, Mrs. Smith! Why would Eve want to go back to Lyle when she has me?”

Sabrina chimed in as well, “I know, right? Do you really think praising your son is going to hide how much of a scumbag he is? Surely you haven’t forgotten why he married Eve back then, right? You may have gotten so used to twisting the facts to your liking, but we haven’t!”

“An outsider like you should stay the hell out of our family business, Ms. Zimmer!” Like a hen protecting its chicks, Wendy blocked the entrance with outstretched arms and refused to let me in no matter what. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

“Let’s go inside, Mom. It’s rude to behave like this in public.” Lyle then looked at me as he continued, “Besides, having her watch me get married is the best way to make her give up! Wouldn’t you agree, Mom?”
