His Real Wedded Bride

Chapter 188 Dislike

"No, you're lying!" Yvonne retorted.

She always had the assumption that Charles refused to accept her because of Autumn. "Autumn, I will

not spare you!" she continued with hatred in her voice.

Autumn could feel a headache approaching. Somehow, she still felt sorry for Yvonne. Sighing, she

said, "Yvonne, I hope I won't see your face again. Take care of yourself."

But Yvonne yelled at her, asking her to stay.

"I need to see Charles, do you hear me? I need to see him right now!" She demanded as she grabbed

her hand to keep her from leaving.

"Yvonne, why do you..." Autumn asked, her forehead wrinkling into a frown.

'Everything can't be salvaged, what's the point of her meeting with Charles?

Besides, he won't even agree to meet with her.' Autumn thought to herself.

"Stay!" Yvonne cried out once again, looking distressed.

"If you don't bring him here, I will call the police. I'm sure he'll come to see me after Chris has been put

behind bars." She threatened.

"You..." Autumn trailed off, now looking at Yvonne with much distaste.

After a few moments of silence, she finally complied, "Alright. I will find him and bring him here."

When Autumn walked out of the room, she immediately saw Charles who was standing just outside. He

had left Emily's ward when he was told that Autumn was with Yvonne. Not wanting to see the face of

Yvonne, he didn't enter the ward. Autumn stepped forward at the sight of her husband.

"Charles, here you are, " Autumn uttered gently as she embraced Charles.

So much had happened these past few days. If Charles hadn't kept her company, she couldn't have

gotten through all of those days alone. Therefore, she felt really lucky to have him by her side.

"What's wrong?" Charles asked, staring at Autumn in his arms.

"Did Yvonne give you a hard time again?" He continued, concern painting his face.

Hearing the name of that woman made Autumn frown. "No, she didn't…" She muttered, unable to finish

her sentence.

She took a deep breath and thought of ways she could tell Charles about Yvonne's demand to meet

him.

"Tell me. What did she want this time?"

Charles asked, noticing the hesitation on Autumn's face.

"Well, she… She asked to meet with you alone. Otherwise, she will call the police and make sure that

Chris will be jailed." Autumn answered, raising her eyebrows. 'Yvonne is my sister. I'm really sorry that

she has brought the Lu Family so much trouble, ' Autumn mused guiltily.

"Charles, I am really sorry. I..."

Autumn couldn't help but put the blame on herself for getting Chris into so much trouble. After all, Chris

had pushed Yvonne for her sake. But now, Autumn didn't know what to do to make things better. She

found herself at a loss.

"Chris is fine now. You should stop blaming yourself. If she really wants to see me then I will go see

her. It's really not a big deal, Autumn."

Charles tried to console her, stroking Autumn's hair tenderly.

"Charles, you don't have to…" Autumn said, frowning. "You don't need to force yourself if you really

don't want to see her, I'll go talk to her, " she continued after a pause.

"It's alright, don't worry. I can handle this, " Charles responded, smiling reassuringly.

He wasn't afraid of Yvonne's threat. He knew that it was the right time to finally settle things between

him and Yvonne. "I'll go inside. Wait here and I'll be with you shortly, " he instructed Autumn.

"Okay, " Autumn nodded in response.

She watched Charles enter the ward as she sat on the bench anxiously.

As soon as Charles stepped into the ward, Yvonne immediately ran towards him and grasped his arm.

"Charles, I've been waiting for you! It's so good to see you, " she said with a happy smile.

"I heard that you wanted to see me.

Here I am. What do you want to tell me?" Charles asked, pushing Yvonne away.

"I…"

Yvonne became upset as she looked at Charles. 'This handsome, rich man was almost mine. Now,

everything is gone, ' she thought to herself.

"Charles, can you stay here and talk to me? I have so many things to tell you, " she told Charles,

staring at him obsessively.

Charles glared at Yvonne, contempt clear in his eyes. "Yvonne, I came here for Autumn's sake. Say

whatever you have to tell me now. I'm not going to waste any more time here with you, " he said coldly.

Yvonne finally snapped when she heard him say her sister's name. "Autumn! Autumn again!" She

screamed crazily.

"What is it about her?

Why did you choose her instead of me?!" She yelled out in rage, gnashing her teeth in the process.

"I admit that I shouldn't have run away from our wedding ceremony. But I've finally realized my mistake.

I fell in love with you the first time we met. I did everything just to be with you, even after you became

my brother-in-law. Please, Charles! Can you give me one more chance..." she begged, gripping

Charles's sleeves desperately.

But before Yvonne could even finish her words, Charles shook her off and stepped away. "Yvonne, I

came here to see you because I have something to tell you, " he said.

"When Autumn and I got married, I was initially unkind towards her because we were forced to marry.

In the beginning, we promised not to touch each other and made sure that our marriage was just for

show. But then I got to know her and found out that she was completely different from what I initially

thought. I started to doubt and see her real identity. When I realized she's not the same as you, I was

filled with joy. I couldn't stop my feelings for her ever since then. And before I know it, I was already

falling deeply in love."

"You always thought that I should love you just because you're the real Yvonne. If it weren't for you, I

wouldn't have met her. Today, I want to tell you that the one I really love is Autumn, and it will always be

her. Have I made myself clear?" he said, scowling at her.

Yvonne's face turned completely white with embarrassment. She never expected that Charles could

say those words directly to her face. 'He even felt glad I escaped from our wedding. How ridiculous!'

"Charles, don't you have any feelings for me? Have you ever loved me?"

Yvonne asked, unable to accept the words he said, clearly in denial.

"I have never liked you, " Charles replied straightforwardly.

"If you hadn't done all the things you did, we might still be relatives.

But now… you're just a mere stranger to me." From NôvelDrama.Org.

"I'm done here. Have a good rest and take care of yourself, Yvonne, " Charles declared, giving her a

last indifferent stare before turning away.
