His Real Wedded Bride

Chapter 318 Kill Two Birds With One Stone

Chris almost dragged Autumn out of the cinema abruptly. In fact Autumn knew very well what Chris

was thinking. No matter whom she regarded that person, he would always remain her father. Who

doesn't want to be the apple of the parents' eyes? Even though Chris wanted to be closer to her father,

she would not admit it.

"What is wrong? You don't want to watch the movie as it has Rachel as an actress?"

Autumn and Chris then found a cafe near the cinema hall, where they sat down and ordered two cups

of coffee. They began to chat and while away their precious yet free time.

They all had their work to do and responsibilities chalked out. With very little time to spare, they

cherished every moment and decided to spend time with one another and chat. It was the small things

like this that made all the difference.

"Autumn, let's change the topic. I simply don't want to waste any more of our valuable time together

talking about her, " Chris frowned and said in an impatient tone, "I felt uncomfortable just hearing her

name."

Right at that moment, the TV in the cafe seemed to buzz a little more loudly. It was broadcasting an

interview about Rachel and her wedding ceremony tomorrow. As Chris watched her showing off her

relationship with Edward on national television, Chris just wanted to turn it off.

"Please let us just go home." Autumn said as she considered her feelings. She knew Chris definitely

had no interest in shopping right now so it was better just to head home.

After so many virtual run-ins with Rachel, they least expected to walk into Rachel hugging Edward on

the sofa; both of them had smiles on their face. In contrast, Gary was solemn, sitting right across them.

Marriage seemed to impact the appearance of a person. It must be true. It appeared like Edward was

younger than ever before. His looks had substantially changed from his inner body.

"What are you doing here?" Chris got angry and shouted at the both of them.

"Chris." Rachel stood up and tried to hold Chris' hand. "You are home, dear. Your father and I want

to..."

"Just shut up!" Chris pushed her hand away and yelled at her, "Father? I don't have a father.

My father has already died!"

"Chris..." Rachel pretended to frown with remorse, but in her head she was feeling smug as she turned

around and saw Edward's dull expression. She continued the drama of being kind as she persuaded

Chris, "I know you are angry with your dad, but it's just rude to say your father has died."

"Rachel..." Edward was extremely disappointed with Chris. He pulled Rachel behind him as he walked

towards Chris, and then said to her, "Chris, please have a seat here. I want to talk with you."

Edward felt awkward, as he noticed that Chris was so against him.

He would be happy, as tomorrow was his wedding. But whenever he thought of his daughter and their

relationship, he was rather distressed and just did not know what to do.

And that's why he always went an extra mile regardless of the difficulties. He spared some time to meet

Chris as he desperately tried to iron out the crease in their relationship.

"We have already made it clear last time. Since you have made your decision, then we have nothing to

talk about." Chris replied in a rather cold tone, "Uncle, hope you have a happy wedding tomorrow!"

"Chris..." Edward walked right upto Chris and held her wrist, then quickly blurted out, "I'm not here to

quarrel with you, but I really have something very important to say."

"But I have nothing to say to you." Chris was content with their current relationship. She had her

grandpa, brother, sister and Sam, who all loved her very dearly. Even though now she knew she had a

father incidentally, she did not care about it.

Rachel was overjoyed with the entire scene, but she tried to mask her inner feeling and said to Chris

assuming an elder's position, "Chris, no matter what has happened in the past. You should know he's

your father. Why must you treat him like this?"

"Who the hell do you think you are and when did I ever talk to you? Shut up and don't speak out of

line!" Chris snapped at her, "Don't speak like you are a celebrity and it means something. You are

nothing to me!"

"Stop talking like that! Chris!" Edward's face grew morose. He really admired Rachel as he thought she

was the perfect woman. After being together for quite a while, he thought of Rachel as someone who

was kind, considerate and generous. Most importantly, she always thought for him and looked out for

him. No matter what happened, she always stood by his side like a pillar. She also knew how to run the

business. After she took charge of the hotel, their revenue was sky rocketing.

In Edward's mind, Rachel was already more a wife without even being married and was like a family

member he never had. As for Chris, he actually started to dislike her for her bad temper and bad This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

manners.

Also, Rachel's words were stirring more hatred in Edward's heart, though those word seemed to be

persuading Chris to treat Edward good, Just like what happened earlier today.

Edward had no plans or intentions to go meet her, but Rachel insisted that as marriage was a big

turning point, and Chris was his only child, he should make some amends. She wished that Chris

would attended the wedding tomorrow.

Well, that was a move to kill two birds with one stone.

Because if Chris did attend the wedding and would see her father marry another woman, she would

only hate Edward more. But in the other scenario, if she was unwilling to attend the ceremony, then

Edward would feel uncomfortable.

Therefore, regardless of what the outcome would be, Rachel would be happy in either of the scenarios.

Realizing that his fiance, Rachel was being wronged, Edward instantly became angry. However, as he

could not unleash his temper on Chris, he blamed Gary instead.

"Brother, how have you educated her all these years? Is it considered good manners to treat everyone

so rudely? She doesn't even show a little respect to elders let alone speaking to them in an appropriate

tone!"

Edward provoked Chris instantly with his sarcastic remarks. She rushed to him and furiously defended

herself, "Why you don't reflect on how you behave and see how rude you are? People always say, like

father like daughter. So I must have gotten it from you. After you do educate yourself please do pass on

the lessons!

You cannot judge how my grandpa educated me, concentrate on the fact that he did educate me.

Unlike you. You just seek pleasure with your newly married wife! Don't you think it's ridiculous for a man

like you to have other people educate your daughter?"

"You..." Edward fell silent as he felt like he must have owed Chris something from his last birth because

he could not even get himself to retort.

Gary stood up, turned to Edward and said to him in a rather cold tone, "I have never thought of her a

bad girl. The biggest regret in my life was not educating you to be a good person when I had the

chance."

"Grandpa..." Autumn saw that Gary was extremely furious, so she instantly went up and held his arm in

a bid to calm him down. "Please don't build your angry. Your health is more important."

"I'm fine." Gary waved his hands, letting Autumn loosen her grip. He had to maintain his dignity in front

of Edward. "If you want to marry Rachel, then do it. But after that, you just live your life while staying

away from us. Don't bring Rachel here and show off your power. Let's just be strangers and please

don't intervene in our life."

"Now I'm exhausted with all of this rubbish talk, I have to rest." Gary sighed, unwilling to deal with the

disaster Edward unfurled. When he left, he seemed to be so lonely, as if he was getting much older in

such a short time. Inside Edward's heart, he suddenly felt unease without any reason.

He was raised up by Gary. In his eyes, even though Gary was his brother, he was more likely to play

the role of his father.
