Love Coming from the Least Expected

Chapter 669

Not only was I stunned by his action, but Flora was also shocked as well. She covered her hands with her face and started sobbing while apologizing to Tobey. I could not help but frown at the scene. Somehow, the happiness which I had felt just a moment ago when help arrived had greatly diminished.

The men in white coats hurried over and restrained Flora, before bringing her upstairs. Flora kept struggling while shouting Tobey’s name, crying her heart out.

Tobey walked toward me and untied me from the chair. “Ms. Goldstein, are you alright? Do you want me to send you to the hospital?” he asked cautiously.

I shook my head, making a mental note to myself. Indeed, Tobey was a man motivated by self-interest. Otherwise, he would have definitely checked on Flora first before showing concern toward me.

“I’m fine. I just need to wash my face. She didn’t really do anything else to me.”

“I’m glad to know that. That’s good, that’s good!” Tobey repeated that a few times, his voice slightly trembling from the lingering fear. Beads of perspiration had already formed on his forehead.

Any good feelings I had developed toward Tobey previously were completely gone because of Flora. In fact, I did not want to talk to him at all. After washing my face, I headed out of the door immediately.

Tobey ran out and caught up with me, offering to send me back. As I was tired, I accepted his offer. When I was about to alight after we reached back at the mansion, Tobey suddenly spoke, “Ms.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Goldstein, what happened today is an accident, can you please keep it from Mr. Goldstein and Mrs. Goldstein? I don’t want it to affect the cooperation between the Goldstein and Osborn families.”

I narrowed my eyes and replied in displeasure, “Aren’t you worried about Flora at all? If my dad knows that I was kidnapped by Flora, he would definitely not let her off.”

Not understanding what I meant, Tobey shared his thoughts, “I did not expect Flora to do such a thing. She’s mentally unstable now and does things unexpectedly. She’s just a lunatic and is not aware of what she’s doing. If you let her off the hook this time around, I will get someone to watch her closely and ensure that she will never appear in your life again. So, can you please forgive her just this once?”

Even though Flora had kidnapped me, I wasn’t very pleased with the way the man kept referring to her as a lunatic. Not only that, I was starting to lose any remaining respect I had for him. I sneered and said, “It’s all because of jerks like you that cause women to lose their minds just for love. Tobey, let me tell you, you will never meet another woman like Flora, who loves you so wholeheartedly, ever again. You’ll definitely regret this.”

After I finished speaking, I turned and ran into the house immediately, fuming. When Tobey wanted to enter, I slammed the door shut. From the time I was kidnapped until now, I had been uncontactable for exactly one entire day. I had a few missed calls on my phone, mostly from Mark. There were also a few texts from Sabrina. After sending messages to the two of them, I lay down on the bed and fell asleep straight away.

When I closed my eyes, a thought suddenly occurred to me. If I had really died, would my mom be the last person to find out? She’s never concerned about my whereabouts. However, what bugged me

most was that I had not looked for Christopher yet.

Due to shock and hunger, I got a sudden fever in the middle of the night. Feeling rather disoriented, I climbed out of bed with much difficulty, trying to find some fever medicine. After looking around the house for a while, I suddenly remembered that I had moved in for barely half a month and had not gotten any medical supplies for the house yet.

Feeling weak, I slumped on the sofa and took out my phone, wondering who I could call for help. Sabrina had a kid, so it wouldn’t be convenient for her to come over, and Christopher was still out of town. Finally, I decided to call Isabelle. However, I tried calling her three times, but she did not pick up.

I hung up in disappointment and called the ambulance instead. I remained on the sofa while waiting for the ambulance to arrive alone. Suddenly, I was transported back to my loneliest days. It was during those days when I was still together with Lyle. He did not care about me at all. In fact, there was no one who cared about me then. When I fell sick, I had also laid on the sofa while waiting for the ambulance alone. However, in the end, it was Christopher who appeared.

Would Christopher also appear this time round?

While I was drifting in and out of consciousness, I suddenly heard rustling sounds. Seconds later, I was being lifted up. I struggled to open my eyes and saw Christopher’s worn-out face. Widening my eyes in disbelief, I called out, “Chris…”

“Everything’s fine, I’m here now. Don’t be scared. I’ve told you before that no matter where I am, I’ll be right by your side whenever you need me.”
