Chapter 115 Chris Sprained Her Ankle
Chapter 115 Chris Sprained Her Ankle
"Thank you, Ye." Chris smiled. "Well, I shall entrust my marriage to you."
"No problem." Autumn smiled back.
They both had a good time with their chafing dishes. Chris had opened her heart to Autumn and shared
a lot with her. Being in love with Sam was exhausting. Too tired to go on, she was on the verge of
giving up.
Then Chris started drinking and got drunk. She cried and laughed. Autumn knew that she was hurting
and needed an outlet to release the pain, so she didn't stop her. She knew that she would feel much
better afterwards.
Chris was too drunk to walk, so Autumn had to support her by the arm. Just as they had walked out of
the door, someone called Autumn. "Miss Ye, it's really you."
It was Mr. Yi, a former client. He once tried to bribe Autumn in private, hoping that she would save him
some money by doing a project, but Autumn turned him down.
He had been holding a grudge against her ever since. Learning that Autumn had been fired and was
having a hard time, he enjoyed gloating over her misfortune.
"Mr. Yi." Autumn was busy taking care of Chris, so she greeted him simply and intended to turn away.
However, Mr. Yi wasn't going to let her pass so easily. He stood in her way and said to her with a
frivolous smile, "Not so fast. It's been a long time since we last met. Let's find a place to talk."
Autumn remained silent with a frigid look on her face. Mr. Yi had a bad reputation in the business
circles, so Autumn had made sure to keep their contact strictly professional. She avoided meeting him
outside of work. Unexpectedly, she bumped into him here tonight.
"Mr. Yi, as you can see, my friend isn't feeling well. I have to take her home." But Mr. Yi wouldn't let her
go. He sneered and said, "What's the rush? I can drive you home later."
He came closer to her and continued, "It's not every day that we come across each other like this. For
old time's sake, let's grab a table some place nearby."
"Mr. Yi, I really can't. Maybe next time, " Autumn said, as she held Chris tightly.
Mr. Yi scoffed, "Are you looking down on me?"
Then he started shouting, "When you were a planner of Cloud Advertising Company, I respected you
and asked you to do a project for me, but you refused. Now what? Look at you now. You ended up
getting fired. You know what? I think you are nothing but a phony pretending to be pure and lofty. You Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
are already notorious. Stop pretending!"
Autumn's face went pale. Chris raised her head and asked, "Ye, what... what is he talking about? What
does he mean?"
Mr. Yi looked at them lustfully and put his hand on Autumn's shoulder. He said with a sneer, "You're so
beautiful. You should make full use of your beauty. Women are supposed to rely on men. As long as
you agree to be my mistress, you will never have to work again."
He paused for a moment and put forward another bait, "If you want to work again, I can help make the
rumors disappear and you can work anywhere you like. Just say the word."
"Who the hell do you think you are?" Chris said angrily before Autumn opened her mouth.
Disrespecting her sister-in-law right in front of her! It was outrageous. She wanted to kill him.
Chris pushed him angrily and said, "Go find a mirror and look at yourself! How can you compete with
my brother? I'm warning you. Get lost immediately. Otherwise, I'll kick your ass!"
"Let go of me! Let go!" Chris was gagging. It looked like she was going to throw up any minute. Mr. Yi
was disgusted and pushed her hard. Chris fell on the ground and sprained her ankle.
"Chris! Are you Okay?" Autumn ignored Mr. Yi and asked Chris, who was very distressed. Chris
wrapped her sprained ankle with her hands and looked at Autumn pitiably. "It hurts, " she said.
Autumn was furious, but upon hearing Chris' words, she couldn't help but smile. She decided to take
her to the hospital. However, Mr. Yi still insisted, "Miss Ye, have you made your decision yet? To be
honest, I appreciate you, so I want to give you this opportunity. But just this once. I hope you don't miss
it."
"What if I say no?" This time Autumn answered his question directly, "Mr. Yi, last year I met your wife,
who is a delicate and tender person. I heard that your success was based on your wife's connections
and family background. I also heard that you are afraid of her. Now you're telling me that you want to
use her money to support me? Do you have no sense of shame at all?"
Hearing Autumn mention his wife, Mr. Yi got flustered, but he collected himself quickly. "Miss Ye, this is
between you and me. As long as you and I agree, it doesn't have to concern anybody else."
"I'm afraid I have to disappoint you, " Autumn said with a faint smile. "I actually admire Mrs. Yi very
much and I'm going shopping with her in a couple of days. If I do something to hurt her, I'll be too
ashamed to see her ever again." "
I'm sorry, Mr. Yi. My friend is injured. I have to take her to the hospital. Please excuse me, " Autumn
said politely to Mr. Yi. She helped Chris stand up and left. Mr. Yi's shame turned into anger. Watching
her walk away, he called out, "Wait and see! You will regret rejecting me sooner or later!"
Autumn heard it but she didn't care. She took Chris to the hospital and the doctor said that the injury
wasn't serious. When they got home, Charles was waiting for them at the door.
Autumn couldn't help but make fun of him, "How long have you been waiting? You look very eager for
us to come home. I'm worried that if you had waited any longer, you might have turned into a stone
statue."
"I was worried to death and you're still joking. Where have you been? Why did you come home so late?
I called you but you didn't pick up your phone. Charles saw Chris, who was drunk in the back seat. He
frowned and asked, "What's going on?"
"She was sad and needed to drown her sorrows in wine. Help me get her out of the car." They
struggled, but eventually managed to get Chris into her room. Autumn felt relieved.
Her mind was preoccupied with her unemployment issue the whole evening. Charles tried talking to her
several times but she didn't respond. "What's the matter? Your mind has been wandering ever since
you got home."
"It's nothing. I'm just tired." Realizing her absent-mindedness, she said to Charles, "It's late. Time for
bed."
Charles gazed at Autumn's back and sensed that something was bothering her. He decided to ask
Chris about what happened the next day.
The next morning, Chris turned in bed and unknowingly pressed her sprained ankle. She woke up in
pain and screamed. Charles thrust the door open and asked with a grim face, "What are you screaming
for? It's early in the morning, for God's sake."
