His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 22

Wendy Ye and Simon Gu didn't come here for the meal. They looked at each other before Wendy said,"Charles, you and Yvonne have been married for several days..."

"Mother!" Autumn immediately raised her head and interrupted Wendy,"Look I made your favorite sweet and sour fish. Please have a bite."

"I..." Wendy frowned. She was clearly upset about being interrupted by Autumn. But Autumn did not seem to care about that at all.

"Charles and I should have visited you and father today. But Charles's grandfather has just arrived home and he is very tired. It's all my fault. I should have told you earlier..." Autumn took the blame upon herself. She described Wendy and Simon's visit as them "missing their daughter".

It suddenly dawned on Gary. "Oh, excuse my poor memory. Charles and Yvonne should have visited you today, instead of you coming here. I'm the one to blame."

"Mr. Lu, I didn't mean it that way. We are here to..." After hearing Autumn's words, Wendy did not know how to express her intention. Simon frowned and was about to say something.

With the help of chopsticks, Autumn put a rib into Simon's bowl,"Father, you said you miss my cooking. Please have some more."

Autumn knew that she wouldn't be able to stop them from talking. But she tried her best to prevent them from speaking out their intention in front of Charles' grandfather.

Charles incisively concluded that Simon and Wendy were not here to "visit their daughter". He went on and said,"Father, mother, it is forgetful of me. How about this? Tomorrow, Yvonne and I will visit you. I want to have a chat with father about the company affairs."

"Great! That is it, then!" Wendy was all smiles. "You and Yvonne can come in the morning. I will prepare lunch for the two of you."

"Okay." Charles answered. Autumn tried very hard, but failed to stop them from talking. But Charles easily managed to keep their mouths shut.

After the lunch, Simon and Wendy were about to leave as they were successful in doing what they wanted. Autumn was clearing away the bowls and chopsticks. Wendy said rather loudly while at the door,"Yvonne, we are leaving. Come here, I have something to tell you."

"Go Yvonne." Chris told Autumn that she would complete the chores.

Autumn then put the bowls down onto the table and walked towards Wendy. Wendy held Autumn's arm in a friendly way and said,"Let's go."

They walked out of the house. When no one was watching, Autumn shook off Wendy's hand and asked in a rather cold tone,"Wendy Ye, you can have what you want tomorrow. Anything else?"

"You are my daughter. Can't we just have a chat?" Wendy sneered. Hardly had her words faded, Autumn laughed scornfully,"There's nobody else here. Stop acting like a good mother! Don't mince your words, just talk straight."

"Charles is a nice man, and treats you nicely too. Are you in love with him?" Wendy asked in an envious way. "I'm warning you, Charles is Yvonne's husband. Don't hatch any conspiracies..."

"Don't worry!" Impatient, Autumn interrupted Wendy,"I don't like Charles at all! I wish Yvonne Gu would come back as early as possible, so that I can return this position to her."
