His Real Wedded Bride

Chapter 189 The Story of Autumn

Softhearted as he is, Charles consoled Yvonne. She had just lost her baby and the doctor said that she

had less than thirty percent chance of conceiving again in the future. Charles felt sorry for her.

His words of consolation gave Yvonne hope somehow. She stepped forward, holding his hand and

said, "Charles, you still care about me. You must love me, or you would not comfort me today."

"Have you lost your mind?" Charles got rid of her hands and stepped back. "Haven't I made myself

clear before? If you dare make any more trouble for Autumn, I promise that I will take some steps next

time and you will regret it."

"Charles, if you dare leave me alone today, I will call the police right away. I will tell them it was Chris

who pushed me and caused my miscarriage. If she gets arrested, how long do you think she will be

imprisoned?" Yvonne burst into sneer. She thought Charles would be threatened but he remained

expressionless.

"Are you threatening me?" Charles coldly asked, squinting at her.

Filled with guilt, Yvonne hesitated. But she could no longer take back what she had just said. She was

convinced that Charles could not bear his sister going to jail and that she could win him back.

"Yes. You can regard it as a threat." Yvonne kept smiling stubbornly and continued, "Charles, Chris is

your only sister. You probably don't want her spending a minute in jail. This won't do you any good.

Think carefully."

"Do you think you can threaten me?" Charles shook his head. Yvonne was too simple-minded and she

may have forgotten that Charles was a big shot in Y City. He was capable enough to make people

believe that it was just an accident. Who the hell did she think she was? He would not bow to anyone.

"Yvonne, no matter what you do, I won't be with you, let alone fall in love with you. Just give up and

stop this madness." He then walked out of the room, leaving her alone and furious.

"What is going on? Tell me. Did she promise not to sue Chris?" Autumn rushed up to Charles as he

stepped out. Her anxiety almost overwhelmed her. Yvonne's hysterical cries could be heard from the

ward but Autumn could do nothing but wait outside. She was afraid that the situation would get worse if

she went in.

"I have thought about it for a long time. If Yvonne insisted on suing Chris, I would take the blame.

Yvonne would love that and she won't object to it. It was all my fault. Chris got involved in this trouble

because of me and I don't want her to get hurt. I have to protect her." said Autumn. She had taken all of

the consequences into account and has decided to take the blame for Chris.

Charles didn't know whether to laugh or cry upon hearing such an absurd idea. "And where did that

ridiculous idea come from? Is that what you have been thinking all day long?"

"What's wrong with it? Won't it work?" Perplexed, Autumn gazed at Charles. It was the best solution

that she could think of. If this didn't work, she didn't know what else to do.

"Don't worry about that. Let's go home." Charles put his hand on her shoulder. "Don't worry too much

about it. I will take care of it. As long as I am here, no one could hurt you and Chris, " he added. They

left the hospital hand in hand.

However, Autumn still remained uncertain and worried about Chris. She knew Yvonne too well. She

would definitely not let this go easily this time.

Autumn had taken care of her grandmother for a long time. Then Yvonne had a miscarraige, so she

had to look out for her as well. Charles was worried about Autumn's health, so he insisted that Autumn

go home and have a good rest.

Back home, Autumn took a shower and had just lay down on the bed to enjoy this rare leisure time

when Chris showed up at the door. "Autumn..." Chris said with a sad look.

"What's wrong, Chris? You look upset." Chris's eyes were red and swollen as if she had been crying for Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

a long while. "Come in, Chris. Tell me what happened."

"I am fine." Chris came in slowly and Autumn invited her to the bed. "Are you still worried about

Yvonne?" Autumn asked.

"I just feel really bad for what I did to her. It was my fault. She lost her baby because of me. I cry every

time I think about it. I killed her baby. It's just so horrible." Chris sometimes had embarrassing

characteristics but she had been protected well by her family and had never gone through such things.

Chris took all responsibility for this accident, suffering from extreme guilt.

Autumn thought for a long time, then asked, "Chris, I am not Yvonne, and my name is Autumn. Isn't it

weird for you?"

Chris looked a bit stunned. Then she shook head. "I was surprised at first. But I have already gotten

along with you and I know that you are a good person. My brother loves you so much, and I believe my

brother's judgement. So, it's not that weird."

Autumn smiled as she heard this. "Then now you know why I got married to your brother using the

name of Yvonne?"

Though Chris knew about her identity swap with Yvonne, Chris still was not clear about the details. "It

is an absurd story indeed. Yvonne is my half-sister. After my mother gave birth to me, she abandoned

my father because he was too poor to give her a good life. She ran away with another man whose wife

died soon. They got married and Yvonne was born shortly after.

I have been living with my grandmother since I was a child. My father passed away when I was four

years old because of a serious illness, so my grandmother is the only family I have in this world."

Autumn felt extreme sadness as she recalled how Wendy forced her to marry Charles for Yvonne.

Wendy was her natural mother, but she treated Autumn viciously.

"Gu's Group was in need of a financial bail out. At that time your brother, Charles was about to marry

Yvonne. Simon and Wendy planned to take advantage of the situation. Yvonne's marriage to your

brother would save Gu's Group from bankruptcy. Unfortunately, to everyone's surprise, Yvonne ran

away with another man."

"No one expected that she would elope with someone else, except for Wendy who had known this

before the wedding, because your brother had a bad reputation at that time, so she consented to her

daughter's running away from the wedding. Wendy no longer wanted Yvonne to marry Charles, and

instead forced me to marry your brother in place of Yvonne."

"What? You are kidding me! They really went too far!" Chris was completely shocked by Autumn's

story. She never thought that there would be such a cruel mother in this world.
