His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 136

"The bitch presumes to put everything over on others."

Yvonne was more delighted than others at how Charles had embarrassed Leila to her face. Chris grinned, "In line with the old saying, 'What is done by night, appears by day!' Miss Ye, by no means should you follow her footsteps."

What Chris had just said, completely confused Yvonne before she realized that it was actually a trap.

Autumn, back home, felt upset and apologetic, as she found her husband retired to his room.

"My love, why were you unwilling to come inside your own home?" Charles felt that he had to settle the matter with his wife, otherwise he would be spending a restless night.

"I was afraid..." Autumn replied shamefully, "All I wanted do was to try and keep my identity from her."

"Why?" Charles wondered, "Can you tell me why you are still so concerned about these matters?"

"I..." Autumn replied awkwardly, "Frankly speaking, both Leila and Yvonne have developed feelings for you. I even suspected Leila's motive of coming here was to find out who I am. I avoided seeing her because I wanted avoid giving her any chance of becoming a nuisance. I am not even sure what she would do if she discovered that I am Mrs. Lu.

Autumn smiled and threw herself into her husband's arms, "Me too, undoubtedly."

As their relationship was solemnized, Charles wooed his wife beyond measure, with everyday spent in conjugal bliss.

Charles was holding Autumn tightly, ready to take liberties with his wife, when suddenly the door was pushed open by Yvonne, who said, "Gary sent me to call you two to dinner downstairs."

"Out!" Charles turned around with an irritated expression, as his wife shirked from his arms in embarrassment, fixing her hair awkwardly.

"Awfully sorry! Please forgive my ignorance.... I was just following Gary's order..." Yvonne's very countenance betrayed her hypocrisy.

Yvonne's unwelcome presence upstairs was, in fact, just to prevent Charles and his wife from further intimacy. She had lost her patience after her protracted waiting.

"Now I order you to get out. Can't you understand?" Charles's face turned paler than ever, however, Yvonne was totally ignorant of it, "Charles, I...."
