His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 52

When they arrived at the hot pot restaurant, they saw that no private room was available. While Sam Lin frowned slightly, Autumn Ye walked over to a table by the window and sat down.

It is better to not sit in a private room. She could be much relaxed now.

"Take a seat." Autumn glanced at both of them and faintly said.

"Hey Autumn, should we try another restaurant?" Seeing how embarrassed Sam was getting, Chris Lu suggested.

Autumn buried herself in the menu, not caring about what Sam would think of her "No, this one is fine. I have an appointment later so just a quick bite would be fine."

"Have a seat." Sam pulled out a chair for Chris and sat on the other side of the table.

Autumn lowered her head when she ordered the food. She looked more beautiful with the light of the restaurant falling on her face.

It was quite crowded in the hot pot restaurant but Autumn looked extremely quiet. She just sat there in silence. It seemed as if there was some kind of calming power radiating from her.

"Excuse me. I need to use the ladies room." Chris stood up and said to Sam. Sam nodded slightly. He was waiting for a chance to talk to Autumn in private, and now Chris gave that chance to him.

Right after Chris left, Autumn also made an excuse to leave. She really didn't want to stay with Sam alone.

"Autumn, are you so afraid of me?"

Sam stopped Autumn. "I know I hurt you in those days, and I came back this time to make amends. Please don't take away this opportunity from me?"

"Sam, we are… I have moved on." Autumn hesitated again and again, and finally decided to talk.

Since he was already back in the country, they couldn't avoid seeing each other and it was not possible to dodge him forever. Evading things is not the best way to solve them. It would be better to confront bravely and work things out.

"Moved on?" Sam was startled. He barely survived his days abroad with the memories of Autumn, and got to know she was married the minute he got back. Now she just told him that she has moved on. How is that possible?

"You tell me how to move on." Sam stared at Autumn closely. "I know you hate me, but I had my share of difficulties when I left you. My mother..."

"Sam!" Autumn interrupted, "Enough, please don't say it."

She didn't want the mention of the past, and now... she had Charles by her side. Whatever Sam said could make no difference to her.

"It has been such a long time and you should really learn to move on. Chris is a good girl." She pushed Sam over to Chris with only one sentence, and Sam got angry.

"Autumn, it's only been a couple of years since I left you. You amaze me." He sneered, "Do you know how I lived my life these years in another country?

Of course you don't know. You were busy getting married, how could you even know?"

He smiled bitterly. "Though I rushed back here as fast as I could, I am still one step late. Even though you can forget those days we spent together, I can't. And you don't have to push your sister-in-law over to me in such a hurry."

"Sam." Autumn raised her eyes, which were filled with grievances. "What do you want? I am married. You were not able to leave everything else behind to be with me years back, and I'm sorry, I can't do the same now."
