The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 250

"Let's go." Edward sighed as he moved forward and took Rachel by her hand. They were just about to leave when they heard Chris shout from behind them.

"Wait a moment." Chris was waiting for quite a while for Sam, but he didn't show up in the end. As she was worried about him, Chris came out of the room to see what was holding him up. But unexpectedly, she saw Edward and Rachel as they were leaving.

In fact, she hesitated and considered whether it was a good idea to call Edward back or not. But within a moment of reflection she knew she should do so, especially because what Autumn said in the morning seemed to have given her abundance of hope and courage. Autumn was right. No matter what had happened, she should give Edward a chance to give a clear explanation so that she could make a balanced decision for everyone.

"Chris ......" As soon as Edward turned around and saw Chris, his eye turned red as they filled with tears. Chris also felt hurt to see Edward like that, but she still maintained a cold expression towards them as she said, "I'd like to have a word with you."

"That's it." Rachel gave a brittle smile. She said to Chris before she could say anything more, "I made it abundantly clear earlier when we spoke that in the near future you will live with us. Keeping that in mind, I think you better clear the air so as to avoid unnecessary trouble in the future."

"OK, I promise you. But what do you want to talk about with me anyway?" Edward looked at Chris with happiness. For Edward, just the fact that Chris was willing to chat with him really made his day.

"Why don't we find some other place to have this chat? That way Gary won't be bothered." Rachel didn't dare to go into the room, as she feared that Gary would most likely bring up the events of what exactly happened yesterday. So Rachel suggested that they take the conversation outside. Edward turned his head and asked for Chris's advice. But Chris shook her head in disapproval and said, "Let's just talk at home. Anyway, I have only a few words to say so it shouldn't take much of your time."

Chris turned around to lead them inside, and Edward followed her. On seeing Edward coming in, Gary grunted with anger said to him, "What are you coming back for now?"

"Big brother, I ......" Gary had helped in raising his daughter for so many years. Edward felt guilty about this, so when he stood in front of Gary, not knowing what to do, his head lowered in embarrassment. Upon seeing Rachel walk in behind Edward, Gary became more angry, "I don't want to say anything to you. Since you are still going to marry her, just go ahead and do whatever the hell you like. But I must inform you that you shouldn't expect me to show up at your wedding. From now on, you don't have any relation with me!"

Gary had made up his mind. He was old enough to let go of everything. Now who he only cared about was Charles and Chris. As long as they lived a good life, he could not care enough to get involved in anything else.

"Grandpa, don't get angry." Chris poured a cup of water for her grandpa, and then said, "Grandpa, how about going inside and take some rest? I will... I will have a quick chat with him."

Upon hearing what Chris said, Gary was taken aback. It seemed that the girl, who stood before him, had suddenly matured into a woman. Gary nodded his head slowly, and said, "Please do what you think is fit. You have my complete support, child."

"Thank you, grandpa." After sending Gary to his room, Chris came back to Edward and said, "Let's talk in the study."

"OK." Edward nodded his head. But Chris frowned as she noticed that Rachel too wanted to join in their private conversation, so Chris blatantly said to her, "Miss Bai, you are not married to Edward yet. My conversations concerns him rather than you. I don't want a stranger to be privy to our talk."

"What do you mean? How can I be a stranger?" Rachel asked with anger. She gripped Edward's hands firmly and said, "Edward, now you see how bad the situation is? She says that I am a stranger. I......"

"Don't pay heed to it. She doesn't mean it." Edward patted Rachel's hands, and comforted her, "I am just going to have a quick chat with her. You wait outside for me please, won't you?"
