The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 261

Charles, Autumn and their coworkers returned to China the following day. Chris and Sam came to pick them up. On the way home, Autumn whispered to Chris, "How is everything going?"

"I have settled it with Edward." Chris obviously was not affected by the incident. What troubled her was that Sam never asked her to meet his parents since then. "By no means would I live with Rachel under the same roof. Edward cared about Rachel more than anyone else, so I haven't heard from him lately."

Chris replied with a gentle smile, "That's why I am glad that you are back."

The fact that Chris was no longer troubled and disturbed by her family background made Autumn happy.

At that moment, Autumn thought of the Zhao family. Chris mentioned that during her absence, Arthur came over to Dream Garden to check on Emily's condition. Now that she had come home, Autumn decided to face the Zhao Family.

Gary and Emily were waiting for them. Emily's eyes had gotten so weak that she was virtually blind. Autumn was overwhelmed at the sight of her grandma in front of the courtyard and couldn't stop the tears from her eyes.

"Hey, stop crying." Charles patted Autumn's shoulder and assured her, "We are all fated to die one day. Emily will be very happy to spend her remaining days with you. So do not make her worry."

"OK, I understand." Autumn dried her tears and approached Emily with a clear voice, "My grandma, I am back.

"It is good to be back." Emily's face lit up and reached out her hands to meet Autumn's, and caressed Autumn's face, "It seems that you have lost weight."

"I am not accustomed to the local food there, but now I am back, I feel much better. My dear grandma, you don't need to worry." Autumn did not mention the unpleasant encounter in Japan. As always, she did not want her grandma to worry.

They had a blissful time dining together as a family. Afterwards, Chris escorted Sam from Dream Garden while Autumn and Charles went upstairs.

The next day, Charles did not waste time getting back to work. He had doubled his efforts to make up for the failed cooperation with the Light House Company in the following weekend. Meanwhile, without any business to attend to, Autumn did not get up until noon.

"Autumn, can you go out with me and Sam? We need to choose a gift as a token of my respect to Sam's parents." Last night, on the point of departure, Sam suggested that they pay his parents a visit. This rendered Chris over-anxious and she did not sleep a wink.

"To buy a gift? Are you ready to meet Sam's parents?" Autumn blurted out, making Chris's face suffused with more anxiety and embarrassment. Autumn hit the nail.

"Please, Autumn...." Chris looked at Autumn in embarrassment.

Autumn couldn't resist and she gladly agreed.

As they were leaving, Arthur came to Dream Garden. Emily was happy to see him with a greeting. "Doctor Zhao, welcome to our home!"

"Thank you." Arthur replied and turned around to ask Autumn, "Are you going out?"

"Yes." Autumn murmured, feeling rather uneasy, "And.... When it is convenient, I would like to bring my grandma to your family for a visit."
