The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 73

Sam never thought that Charles would bluntly talk about his relationship with Autumn. After a little hesitation, he said to Charles, "Mr. Lu, now that you're being all frank, I'll not hide my intentions from you. To be honest, she is the reason why I came back. I broke her heart several years ago. But this time, I want to win her back again."

On hearing Sam's words, Charles frowned and said, "So you have decided to be my rival, right?"

Sam laughed and said, "I left her because I didn't want to put her in an awkward situation because of my mother. I still can't forget her, but I'll never get her into trouble because she is now married to you."

Charles didn't understand Sam's words. He asked in confusion, "What did you mean?"

Sam replied with a slight smile on his face, "You're smart, so you should know what I mean." Autumn wasn't married to Charles for long, but Sam knew she really loved him.

Although he loved Autumn, he didn't want to destroy her happy married life.

He remembered a sentence.

The best way to love someone is to see her live a happy life. That was what Sam was thinking now.

"She really likes you. Last night you risked your life to protect her. I saw her cry for you when you got injured. After that, I understood that you two are in love." After pausing for a while, Sam continued, "As she has chosen you, I'll respect her decision. But..."

Charles frowned and interrupted him immediately, "What do you mean But?"

Sam said seriously, "But if you break her heart, I'll steal her away from you. Then, you just can't blame me for it."

"Don't bother yourself. You'll never have that chance." Charles began to like Sam now. 'It will be good if he becomes my brother-in-law.' He thought to himself.

Charles flatly said, "Now that we're done talking about Yvonne. Let's talk about Chris." These two women were the most important people in his life, so he didn't want to see any of them get hurt. He continued, "I have grown up with Chris, so I know her well. Once she falls in love, she never changes her mind. What do you plan to do with her?"

"I want to make it clear to you that I only treat her as my junior schoolmate. Nothing more. You know that I only love Ye." Sam said these words on purpose to piss off Charles.

Charles stared at Sam and said, "Don't covet her. You two won't be together again. But I will be glad to see you and Chris as a couple."

Sam curled his lip and answered, "It's impossible." 'If this happens, I'll have to call him my brother-in-law. It will never happen. Besides, I never had a thing for Chris.' He thought.

Sam told Charles his feelings directly, "Chris and I are friends, and we'll continue being friends in the future too. We'll never be a couple. You have my words on that."

When Charles heard Sam's direct refusal, he felt sorry for his sister.

'Chris is a beautiful girl. She comes from a decent family. Most importantly, she is my favorite sister. How could Sam not like her?' He wondered.

Charles wanted to know why he didn't like Chris. But before he opened his mouth, he heard Autumn's voice, "Chris, why don't you come inside?"

Hearing the name Chris, both Sam and Charles frowned. They knew that Chris must have heard their conversation or she would have entered the room.

"Chris, Chris, where are you going?" It had been a while since she was standing outside. She had already known that Sam loved Autumn. But when she heard Sam say that he and Chris were just friends, she was devastated.
