His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 171

Autumn smiled and said, "It's all right."

Noticing that their words failed to upset Autumn, Rachel turned herself towards them, "You always talk about our past. But it's improper to mention those in front of Mrs. Lu."

A fleeting sadness came to Rachel's face. She then continued, "I'm done with Charles, though. I believe Charles had his reasons to choose Mrs. Lu. Perhaps we're not meant for each other. Please don't mention these again, or it will only get awkward between us."

Rachel's expression was contrary to her words. When her fans saw her sad face, they all got angry.

They were convinced that Autumn had stolen Charles away from Rachel. In their eyes, Autumn was a shameless bitch.

"Well, I need to leave now. I will be with you again later." Her plan worked and she could now leave. The host on the stage called out Rachel's name, "Next... Let's welcome our birthday girl and queen of this party - Rachel!"

Rachel smiled at Autumn and said, "Mrs. Lu, could you excuse me? I will be back shortly."

Autumn nodded, "Okay." She didn't care where Rachel was going. Autumn had chosen to stay with Rachel because she wanted to let Charles talk with his former business partners.

She found a corner and stood there, watching Rachel go to the stage waving and smiling at everyone. Rachel bowed to her guests and said, "Thank you for taking time to attend my birthday party. I hope that you all enjoy yourselves tonight."

After the brief greeting, Rachel was about to leave the stage when the host took her by her hand and said, "Wait a moment, Miss Bai. I heard that you were a dancer before you became famous. I wonder if you could treat us with a dance number."

"It..." Rachel looked slighly awkward, but there was no surprise in her eyes. Obviously she knew of the host's proposal beforehand.

The fans shouted eagerly, "Please, Rachel. We haven't seen you dance for a long time." Rachel said with a little nod, "I can dance, but..."

"Come on Rachel, please!" The host proceeded with a smile, "Miss Bai, if you agree to dance, we will be at your service and satisfy your every wish."

Rachel responded with a sneer, "It's not a big deal. I heard that Mrs. Lu was not only pretty but good at playing the piano. I hope she could accompany me here on stage, but I'm not sure. May I have this honor?"

Autumn had hidden in a corner and taken a rest. The party was getting boring for her. She had been sitting in the lounge and had almost fallen asleep. Hearing this, she came to her senses and looked terrified.

Silence swept the hall and the crowd's attention turned to Autumn. Charles raised his eyebrow, strode to Autumn and said to her, "Let's go. We have already done enough. There is no need to give in to any of her requests."

"It's rude of us to leave now." 'Now all the guests have fixed their eyes on me. If I left the party now, the media would make up stories about our relationship, me embarrassing Rachel on purpose or showing strong hostility towards Charles's ex-girlfriend. Most importantly, it will be a bad manner of us to leave now.

Neither do I want others to think that Rachel is better than me or that Charles made a wrong choice.'
