His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 44

Autumn stared at Wendy in confusion. Wendy fixed her eyes upon Autumn and sternly stated,"Although you are Charles's wife now, remember, you are the substitute of Yvonne and a fake. You should have a clear estimation of yourself. Don't you dream of something you don't deserve."

Wendy laughed scornfully and continued,"You and Charles are from different strata. You must always keep that in mind, Charles is your brother-in-law. You should help Yvonne to win his love. Do you understand?"

Wendy's warning agitated Autumn.

Before she married Charles, she loathed him. But the longer she stayed with him, the better she knew him. He was not the kind of playboy as the media described him.

She tried so hard not to fall in love with him, but the more she tried to stay away, she found herself more attracted to him.

Autumn didn't respond. Wendy keenly perceived Autumn's unusual behavior and asked,"Are you... in love with him?"

"No!" Autumn immediately denied, but dodged Wendy's eyes with guilty haste,"How can I fall in love with him?"

"Well, you better not." Wendy sneered,"Remember what you said today. If I catch you lying to me, you would be really sorry."

Autumn finally calmed down. She stared at Wendy and asked coldly,"I've done what you asked me to do. Now, when can I meet my grandma?"

"What's the hurry?" Wendy picked up the teacup on the table and looked away. "I'll let you meet your grandma after Yvonne marries Charles."

"You..." Autumn suddenly stood up and questioned Wendy,"Wendy Ye, what the hell do you mean by that? You said I can meet my grandma after I did that. What have you done to her?"

"What can I possibly do to her?" Wendy answered indifferently,"She is in a stable condition in hospital. If you want to meet your grandma, help Yvonne get close to Charles. That's what you should really be doing."

"Wendy Ye, don't take this too far." Autumn's voice shook with anxiety. She had been worrying about her grandma for a long time now. If it were not for her grandma, she would have never married Charles.

But she was still unable to meet her grandma now.

"I haven't seen grandma in a long time. Mother, I beg you, please let me meet her. As long as I know that she is fine, I'll do anything you want me to do..." The hard look on Autumn's face before was only a mask. Grandma was her weakest point. She earnestly begged Wendy with tears in her eyes.

Nobody knew how difficult it was for her to call Wendy "mother."

"I'm also your daughter. You never treated me like a daughter, and I'm still fine with that. But you can't take my grandma away from me. She is my only family." Autumn's cries were heartbreaking.

However, Wendy looked nonchalantly at Autumn. Autumn was her daughter, but she hated Autumn's face as it looked like her ex-husband.

She irritably shook off Autumn's hands and scolded,"Stop making that noise. Your grandma is not dead. Leave that for her funeral".

Wendy stood up and demanded,"Do what I said. After Yvonne marries Charles, I'll give you a certain sum of money. You must leave Y City with your grandma and be out of my sight forever. Understand?"

Autumn also stood straight. Other daughters could cry in front of their mothers as mothers were the powerful backing and peaceful haven.

But Autumn had no right to cry as crying would solve no problem.

How naive of her to believe that Wendy would take pity on her!
