The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 246

"It seems like you are not aware of the truth, " Rachel sneered. "We are not the ones who will move in with you, but... you will live with us. Don't you know that you're not Charles's sister? You are his aunt."

Chris felt her heart beating so fast that she could faint. All of a sudden she began to hyperventilate as she was panicking.

"I don't know what you are talking about, " Chris responded. Chris attempted to leave the spot but Rachel stopped her. "What I am trying to tell you here is that Edward is your birth father so you're going to live with us. I hope that's clear to you?"

"Just shut up." Chris yelled out with anger. She kept telling herself that Rachel was lying. At the moment, Gary showed up and said to Rachel, "Miss Bai, this is our family affair. It seems... to be out of your business."

"Gary I am going to marry Edward next month. As your future sister-in-law and Chris's stepmother, I have come here for Chris's sake, " Rachel responded with a warm smile which seemed insincere coming from her.

Gary's face turned pale with anger. He didn't think that Edward would still be persistent about marrying Rachel especially after knowing about Chris's identity. Nor did he expect that Edward would ask Rachel to come here with this piece of information.

Gary was so furious that he almost blacked out. Pondering upon Gary's response, Chris could guess whether Rachel was telling the truth. However, she still couldn't believe it. She had lived in the Lu family for years but now she was told that she was Edward's daughter.

"Grandpa, is she... telling the truth?" Chris asked Gary as she wanted to hear it from him.

"Of course I am. Do you think that I would lie to you about such an important matter?" Rachel snapped after noticing Gary's hesitation.

Chris had been waiting for Gary's reply, but Gary ignored her question. "Did he send you here?" he turned to Rachel.

"No, he did not, " Rachel replied. "Edward told me Chris's real relation with him after he went home. He hopes that I can get on well with Chris, so I've come here to make amends. I really just want to get to know her better, " Rachel continued with a smile one her face.

Upon hearing their conversation unfold, Chris dashed towards the gate as she couldn't endure this blow. Sam had been waiting for her outside. When he saw Chris with tear-filled eyes running out of the house, he strode to her immediately. However, Chris acted as if she hadn't seen him and walked right past him. Sam bombarded her with questions, but she did not utter a word. Before Sam could find out what was going on, Chris had shaken off his hands and run away.

Sam hurried to start his car and followed Chris.

Meanwhile, Rachel was still talking to Gary. "Well, you must be curious why Edward trusts me so much, " Rachel smiled with contempt.

"Rachel, what do you want from us?" Gary asked, frowning. He didn't understand why this woman kept harassing his family. At first, she had come for Charles and now Edward.
