His Real Wedded Bride

Chapter 245 Rachel's Visit

The next morning Emily got out of bed earlier than her usual time. She had begun to lose her sight so

she didn't see Autumn walk up to her.

Earlier in the night, Autumn had received a call from Arthur. Upon noticing Emily's receding eyesight,

he gave her an advance notice. When she went across the room to Emily, she greeted her, "Grandma,

good morning." She wanted to cry but she held back her tears and pretended not to notice Emily's poor

vision.

"Autumn…" Emily responded with a smile as she held Autumn's hand, "Chris said you came back late

last night. Even if you are busy working, you should pay attention to your health."

"I see, " Autumn comforted Emily as she stroked her hand, "Grandma, I can take good care of myself.

As long as you live a comfortable and healthy life I will be happy."

"I am too old to give you company any longer. After I leave the world you still need to live an active and

happy life. This is the circle of life, my journey with you is about to end but you need to continue on

yours with all the best. Please do take care of yourself, " Emily laughed, "Your breakfast is ready."

Autumn planned to look after Emily but her offer was rejected politely. As Autumn opened the door to

leave for work, she saw Sam.

"You are coming to pick up Chris, aren't you?" Autumn asked joyfully. She was so happy at just the

thought of Sam and Chris falling in love with each other.

Sam nodded and explained, "My parents are arriving today and I would love to introduce Chris to

them."

"I am leaving. Chris will come downstairs in a moment or two. Please have a seat and make yourself

comfortable while you wait for her." As soon as Autumn arrived at her office she got a call from Hoada

Masahiro. He said, "Miss Ye, I have made the flight reservation for you. It's scheduled for tomorrow."

"So soon?" Autumn asked in surprise, "Isn't the plan to be presented three days later?"

"Yes but I was hoping that you could come here in advance to get an idea of the arena and conditions

and prepare accordingly. After all it is an important plan. I am worried that you may embarrass me if

you are not fully prepared."

On the other end of the line, Masahiro continued as he knocked on the table, "Last time we met, I also

promised to be your guide when you come to Japan. This is a good opportunity for me to show you

around."

Autumn was not interested in sightseeing and gallivanting with Masahiro, but… She thought of Charles

in Japan and instinctively wanted to surprise him there.

"Okay, " Autumn finally agreed as she nodded and hung up. Then she asked Isla to come to her office

and said, "Isla, I am going to Japan tomorrow. The company… I trust you and only you. Please handle

and take care of the affairs as you deem fit."

"You are leaving tomorrow?" Isla was shocked. She added as she absorbed what she had just heard,

"Why are you in such a hurry?"

"Masahiro booked my tickets. When I leave please take over the plan made for the Giant Promise

Company." Autumn worried about the company's operation but she had no choice. The plan to be

presented in Japan was her only chance to change the inferior situation. If she succeeded, it would be

a big turning point for her company's future.

"I understand. Please don't worry. The company is in safe hands." Isla's confident tone was a comfort

to Autumn. In the afternoon, Autumn went back home to pack up and prepare for the sudden trip. Ryan

became the Deputy General Manager when Charles bought the Cloud Advertising Company for

Autumn. However, he was in charge of nothing important, so it made no difference whether he was on

duty or not. In other words, he had become an irrelevant person in the company.

Soon after Autumn left, Ryan began to create trouble. He stole all the documents about Andy's

company when Isla was not in her office.

Once Isla heard about it, she went directly to Ryan's office and interrogated, "Mr. Zhou, you took the

documents of Giant Promise Company from my office, didn't you?"

"Yes. Do we have a problem here?" Ryan put down the documents he was holding and authoritatively

said, "Since Miss Ye is away, I am the head in this company. I took these documents to help with the NôvelDrama.Org content.

plan. Do you have any complaints?"

Isla did not have the slightest idea that she would be suppressed by Ryan the moment Autumn left. But

she had to admit that Ryan was senior to her in the company. So in a polite tone she responded, "Mr.

Zhou, although you are my leader, Manager Ye has assigned the plan made for the Giant Promise

Company to me…"

Ryan stood up as he interrupted her, "I know Miss Ye and you are friends. But now I am in charge of

the company. You don't need to worry about the plan. Someone else will handle it." As a tall man he

stared down at Isla to intimidate her.

"You…" Isla was burning with fury. But as an educated lady, she didn't swear. Before she thought of an

idea to take the documents back, Ryan opened his mouth.

"Did you not understand a word of what I said? Get out of my office right away, will you?" Ryan yelled

at Isla who froze in anger.

Isla had no choice but to call Autumn, "Autumn, I can't make a plan for the Giant Promise Company.

Ryan took all the documents the second he got a chance. I don't know his intentions."

Autumn didn't tell her how to handle with Ryan, instead she asked Abby to send another copy to Isla so

that she could move ahead and work on her plan.

Before Autumn left, something big happened in the Lu family.

Sam had intended to take Chris to meet his parents but before they left the house, Rachel was there.

She was an unannounced guest. Chris looked at her and asked, "Why are you here?"

"I am here to talk to you, " said Rachel. Once she learned that Chris was Edward's biological daughter

she was thinking of ways to smooth out their relationship. She wanted to show Edward her sincerity, so

she didn't mind pretending to flatter Chris. After careful consideration, she thought she should pay a

visit to Chris.

"You are here looking for me?" Chris sneered, "I am sorry I am leaving. And I just ran out of time to

waste on a small talk."

After Chris replied to Rachel rather rudely, she took Sam's hand and was ready to leave. Rachel

stopped Chris again, "Please just hear me out. It won't take much of your time."

"Don't you understand what I just said? I said I'm all out of time to waste, " Chris shouted at Rachel

furiously. She thought to herself, 'It is an important day today. Although I have met Sam's parents

earlier but this is the first time that I will visit them as Sam's girlfriend. This meeting means a lot to our

relationship and me.

My cheerful mood is getting spoiled by this unexpected visitor. How could Rachel create trouble on my

big day! So annoying!'

"Chris, " Sam pulled Chris aside and advised, "There's no need to hurry. We've got plenty of time

before they arrive. I will wait for you outside."

"Just say what you want. Spit it out, " blurted Chris impatiently the second Sam went out.

Rachel cleared her throat and said, "I know you don't like me. If I have a choice, trust me, even I would

not have come to bother you here. In the future, we may have to live together. I am here to talk to you

because I am trying to mend the bridges we burnt and maintain peace."

"You're not making any sense. It's impossible for me to live with you." Chris mocked slyly, "Rachel, are

you still daydreaming? If you think you marrying Edward translates to you being accepted by my family,

then you are absolutely wrong! I am telling you, Edward and our family live apart. Think realistically and

don't bother us!"
