The Apple of My Eye

Chapter 52 Jealous Husband

When they arrived at the hot pot restaurant, they saw that no private room was available. While Sam

Lin frowned slightly, Autumn Ye walked over to a table by the window and sat down.

It is better to not sit in a private room. She could be much relaxed now.

"Take a seat." Autumn glanced at both of them and faintly said.

"Hey Autumn, should we try another restaurant?" Seeing how embarrassed Sam was getting, Chris Lu

suggested.

Autumn buried herself in the menu, not caring about what Sam would think of her "No, this one is fine. I

have an appointment later so just a quick bite would be fine."

"Have a seat." Sam pulled out a chair for Chris and sat on the other side of the table.

Autumn lowered her head when she ordered the food. She looked more beautiful with the light of the

restaurant falling on her face.

It was quite crowded in the hot pot restaurant but Autumn looked extremely quiet. She just sat there in

silence. It seemed as if there was some kind of calming power radiating from her.

"Excuse me. I need to use the ladies room." Chris stood up and said to Sam. Sam nodded slightly. He

was waiting for a chance to talk to Autumn in private, and now Chris gave that chance to him.

Right after Chris left, Autumn also made an excuse to leave. She really didn't want to stay with Sam

alone.

"Autumn, are you so afraid of me?"

Sam stopped Autumn. "I know I hurt you in those days, and I came back this time to make amends.

Please don't take away this opportunity from me?"

"Sam, we are… I have moved on." Autumn hesitated again and again, and finally decided to talk.

Since he was already back in the country, they couldn't avoid seeing each other and it was not possible

to dodge him forever. Evading things is not the best way to solve them. It would be better to confront

bravely and work things out.

"Moved on?" Sam was startled. He barely survived his days abroad with the memories of Autumn, and

got to know she was married the minute he got back. Now she just told him that she has moved on.

How is that possible?

"You tell me how to move on." Sam stared at Autumn closely. "I know you hate me, but I had my share

of difficulties when I left you. My mother..."

"Sam!" Autumn interrupted, "Enough, please don't say it."

She didn't want the mention of the past, and now... she had Charles by her side. Whatever Sam said

could make no difference to her.

"It has been such a long time and you should really learn to move on. Chris is a good girl." She pushed

Sam over to Chris with only one sentence, and Sam got angry.

"Autumn, it's only been a couple of years since I left you. You amaze me." He sneered, "Do you know

how I lived my life these years in another country?

Of course you don't know. You were busy getting married, how could you even know?"

He smiled bitterly. "Though I rushed back here as fast as I could, I am still one step late. Even though

you can forget those days we spent together, I can't. And you don't have to push your sister-in-law over

to me in such a hurry."

"Sam." Autumn raised her eyes, which were filled with grievances. "What do you want? I am married.

You were not able to leave everything else behind to be with me years back, and I'm sorry, I can't do

the same now."

She smiled faintly. "My husband treats me very nicely and I like him too, so I won't do anything to

offend him."

"You are lying."

Sam sneered. "Just now Chris told me that you two didn't even meet each other before getting married,

how could you like him all of a sudden?"

Sam grabbed Autumn's hands in desperation. "Tell me, Little Ye, what happened? Why did you get

married in such a hurry? Please tell me, I can help you out."

"Yvonne!" Before Autumn could draw her hands back, she unexpectedly heard Charles's voice. With a

closer look, she saw Charles quickly walking over to her in anger.

"Why are you here?" Autumn withdrew her hands guiltily. Being caught by her husband right on the

scene got her very nervous.

"I am here to pick you up."

Ever since Charles found out the true identity of Autumn, he didn't like calling her Yvonne.

He stepped forward and pulled Autumn behind him. He then looked at Sam in front of him hostilely and

asked, "And this is...?"

"Oh, I forget to introduce." Autumn peeked at Charles standing in front of her. She held Charles's hand

quietly and said, "This is Sam Lin. He lived next door when we were kids and I often used to go to his

house for free meals. It turns out he is a senior school fellow of Chris and also her boss now. What a

small world."

"Oh, really?" Charles frowned slightly. "What is Chris doing? Couldn't she join my company? Why does

she have to work for someone else?"

"I asked Chris to help." The moment Sam saw Charles, he got the feeling that Autumn and Charles Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

were made for each other, but he soon came to his senses. The purpose of his trip was to get Autumn

back. No matter who was standing in the way, he would not let Autumn go.

He smiled and reached his hand to Charles, "Hi, I am Sam, so you're Chris's elder brother? I heard a

lot about you from Chris."

Sam referred to him as Chris's elder brother instead of Autumn's husband.

"Yes." Charles briefly shook hands with him and drew his hand back. "Chris never mentioned you in

front of me."

Sam didn't feel embarrassed because of what Charles said, "Since you are here, why not join us?"

"No, thanks." Charles refused. "I came to take my wife home."

He clasped Autumn's shoulder and claimed his dominance on her. "Yvonne, Grandpa is still expecting

us home. Let's go home now."

"But..." Autumn was stunned. "What about Chris?"

Charles looked up at Sam. "Since you are the senior and her school fellow, would you please bring my

sister back home later?"

"Of course." Sam clenched his fists tightly. Charles's hand on Autumn's shoulder looked very annoying

to him, but Sam still wore a smile. "I will bring Chris back safe and sound."

"Thank you very much then." Hearing this, Charles took Autumn out of the hot pot restaurant without

saying another word.

He was driving with a poker face all the way. Autumn knew that he was jealous, but she had no idea

what to do. When they drove by the central park of Y City, Autumn asked Charles to pull over.
