Chapter 229 Will You Be My Girlfriend
Chapter 229 Will You Be My Girlfriend
Sam was evidently unhappy, but he did nothing. Chris's dancing partner was taking the opportunity to
get closer to her while dancing and Sam got even more upset. Nonetheless, he still kept a straight face.
Seeing Sam uneasy with what was before him, Autumn could not help smiling.
It was torture for Sam, standing helplessly at the edge of the dance floor. But it was the same for Chris.
She just wanted to make Sam jealous. She really had no plans to do anything with other men. But she
had already accepted the other guy's invitation and couldn't back out of it. She regretted every moment
of it and it made her even more furious.
No matter how much he wanted to look away, Sam kept watching. Then the other guy's hands began to
go to inappropriate places and started touching Chris. Finally, unable to stand it any longer, Sam
stepped forward and pulled Chris away. He stood in front of the man, blocking him from Chris, staring
him down.
"Who the hell are you?" The man asked angrily. Chris was beautiful and she came from a well-to-do
family. Many men were eager to approach her, but only this one took action and actually went up to her.
And now a dark figure stood between him and Chris. He was no doubt, unhappy.
"What the hell are you doing!" Seeing that Sam was concerned, Chris began to act silly again. She
pushed away Sam's hand and shouted at him, "It's none of your business."
"You heard her, didn't you?" The man looked defiantly at Sam. "Miss Lu and I are having fun, dancing.
Why are you getting in the way? Go mind your own business."
"Chris, you don't have to be mad at me……" Sam said in a serious tone. But Chris interrupted him
halfway, "Who do you think you are? And why would I be mad at you? Do not think too much of
yourself."
Though Sam was mad at Chris, he tried to explain his side to her patiently, "I know that you are mad at
me for not getting in touch with you while I was abroad. But I was extremely busy the entire time. I tried
my best to come back as soon as I could. I actually tried to be back before your birthday. Unfortunately,
my flight was delayed. I called Autumn and let her inform you, but......"
Chris's eyes widened. Then she looked over to Autumn, who was standing near the dancing floor with
a playful smile on her face. She then realized what Autumn had done on purpose.
"Hey, who are you, really? Do you have any idea that……" Thinking to himself that Chris liked him, he
tried to drive Sam away. But he was pulled aside by Charles, "Mr Han, I've heard that you have just
started dating a young model. How's that going? I heard you've broken up. Is that true?"
Their voices faded out while they walked away. Chris dared not look at Sam in the eyes, but asked
guiltily, "You…… You called my sister-in-law just to let me know?"
"I made another call before this one. She told me what happened between you and Yvonne. With what
I heard, I wanted to come back immediately." Chris's anger quickly melted away and was replaced by a
sweet, loving smile. Who wouldn't be impressed by that?
"Then why didn't you tell me earlier?" It was then Sam's fault for not saying it soon enough. He just
sheepishly said, "Did you give me any chance to explain?"
Chris, now in a bright mood, looked at Sam and asked lightly, "Cut the cackle, where is my birthday
gift?"
"Sorry, but there's none." Sam answered matter-of-factly, "Well, I came back in such a hurry, without
any chance to stop and get you a gift."
Chris was pretending to be angry, but his presence was the biggest surprise and the best birthday gift
for her. However, she wasn't ready for what she heard next.
"To make it up to you, I feel like giving myself to you." She had to make sure what Sam was saying to
her.
"Wh…… what?" If Chris were a girl who was responsive enough, she must have cheered at that
moment. But she just looked at Sam in a state of shock. "What did you just say?"
Sam was anxious at the moment. Before that, he didn't really feel the same way as Chris, who had
always wanted to be with him. However, he then realized that his feelings for Autumn were shallow --
some kind of obsession. He even made it clear with Autumn. Lately, he had started getting used to Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
being around Chris's company.
While he was abroad, he would think of Chris whenever he saw an amusement park. He couldn't help
eating the food she liked to eat and buying the things she wanted to buy. He couldn't wait to get back
and be around for Chris when he heard of what happened between her and Yvonne.
It was then, when he realized that he had fallen in love with Chris.
He whipped up a lot of courage, to not let Chris say it first, this time. It was not easy for him or anyone
to show vulnerability and express his feelings. What if this girl did not understand?
He tried to read Chris's surprised face, now stuck in a dilemma, not knowing whether to laugh or to cry.
He could only repeat it one more time, "I mean, will you be my girlfriend?"
Chris did not seem to understand what he indirectly said so he just spit it all out. Clearly. Word for word.
Looking at Chris's widened eyes, Sam felt really awkward, "But if you don't want to be..."
Not waiting for Sam to finish his words, Chris jumped up and put her arms around her "I do, I do, I've
been waiting for this day for such a long time…..."
Standing in the distance, Charles smiled. He was glad to see his own sister happy. The way she acted
slightly embarrassed him, though.
Sam smiled as well. He was the man who had the courage to take the blame for his actions. Now that
he had revealed his feelings, he just put it into action. He closed his eyes, savoring every moment as
he hugged Chris back.
"Alright, alright. Everybody around is now watching us." Chris jumped boldly and hugged Sam some
more. Sam smiled, patting on her back slightly.
Chris then slid down from Sam's arms, a bit embarrassed. She stood back, winked and stuck out her
tongue at him.
Grandpa Gary came closer, also smiling. He patted Sam on his shoulder. He knew all along that Sam
and Chris were a good match. Now, seeing them happily together made him happier than anyone else.
The birthday party was filled with a cheerful and festive atmosphere because of the official declaration
of the relationship between Sam and Chris. Even Cindy was clapping her hands, calling out to Chris
and Sam for a kiss. For her, it was Sam's moment and he was in a better situation than Autumn. Also,
kissing was the most appropriate way to express feelings between two people who are in love.
Chris blushed. But Sam being a true gentleman, kissed her lightly on the forehead. He then told Cindy
with a wide grin, "You are enjoying this, aren't you?"
Then all of a sudden, the room grew quiet as if a cold wind had blown over everyone. There were a few
gasps. Rachel had arrived.
And she was not alone.
"Look! What do we have here? What are we celebrating?" Holding the arm of an old man, Rachel
walked towards Charles and Autumn. She wave her hand and the bodyguard behind her offered a gift
box, "Dear Chris, I've heard from Mr Lu that it is your birthday today. I was thinking that I had to come,
so I quickly picked up a gift for you. I have no idea whether you'd like it or not, but please do not reject
it."
"What are you doing here?" While she felt at the top of the world only a few minutes ago, Rachel's
unexpected appearance got her defense mode on.
However, it was the intimidating man beside her rather than Rachel herself that caused even more
uneasiness among the Lu family.
