The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 251

"So essentially what you are saying is..... only if I break up with Rachel you will accept me as your father, right?" Edward looked at Chris in a rather cold tone and asked.

"Well yes." Chris looked at Edward and added, "Just drop the idea all together, I would never come to live under the same roof with Rachel under any circumstance."

"Chris......" Edward frowned, "What on earth did she do to offend you so much? And why are you so against her? You know, she always spoke up for you in front of me, trying to be nice with you. Why couldn't you show a little mercy and learn something from her? Whatever it is that is going on between you and her has clearly moved past, and instead of hampering our relation I think you should try to forgive her."

Edward sighed, " You are my daughter, Chris. And she is my future wife, so both of you are the most important people to me in my entire life. Why would you......"

"We come from different worlds, anyway, here's my request. If you can't oblige to it, then don't ask me for anything in return, I am very sure you will see through Rachel one day in the future......" Chris sighed, " Whatever, we can save our chat for that fine day."

"Chris, I......" Edward was trying to say something more, but Chris abruptly cut him off, "Grandpa raised me up, and now he is old enough, I think it is my turn to return the favor with gratitude and take care of him. You got Rachel so I should not worry."

Chris laughed and went on, "Well by the way, I have totally forgot to congratulate you now that you are going to get married next month. I...... I won't be able to attend your wedding."

Chris did not count on Edward to break up with Rachel because of her remarks, but just gave it a try. Judging from how Edward reacted, Chris surprisingly found that in his heart, she...... was actually not as important as Rachel.

Even though it was an uncomfortable reality, she could at least face it calmly.

Rachel was in a constant state of worry about Chris saying something inappropriate, so she hurried up to Chris as she saw her coming out, "Chris, your father really wishes that you come live with us, and so do I wish for the same with all my heart. I know we have had some misunderstandings between each other, but I am sure we can figure it out after you move in."

"Miss Bai. Give your thoughts a rest, I would not live with you. Now you can relax a little bit and stop putting on an act in front of me. I am well familiar with your age old charade." Chris sneered, "He have no idea about what kind of woman you really are, but I know it. You better behave yourself, otherwise I will not let it go this time."

"You......" Rachel was thrilled in heart, but she acted like nothing happened and said to Chris, "Don't get me wrong, I meant no harm. I really hope......"

"Rachel." Edward stopped Rachel as she was going to continue her drama, he had his own grievance after talking to Chris. He had no idea why Chris would ask him to break up with Rachel. "Let's go."

He thought to himself that he would not beg Chris to change her mind, rather wished he never had such a daughter.

Rachel was ecstatic and elated to see this, and even pretended to comfort Edward on their way back home, "Chris took things too hard now, just give her some more time. She will come round."

Edward did not utter a single word.
