The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 351

It was Wendy who opened the door and walked in while Yvonne followed closely behind. A sly smile showed on her face as Rachel saw them. 'How could it be possible for Autumn to return and be a part of Zhao family in peace?' Rachel thought to herself.

Wendy's presence led to a furor in the hall. All of the people turned to focus on her. Autumn furrowed slightly as she saw them. Just as she expected, Wendy was definitely not going to leave the matter at that.

She finally showed up with her annoying daughter, Yvonne.

Arthur stood close to Autumn seeing her frowning tightly. "Autumn, don't be afraid. I am here. I will protect you. No one can hurt you!" comforted Arthur as he patted her shoulders gently.

Autumn was moved by his words somehow. No one, except for her grandma and father, had cared about her like this. Therefore, Autumn felt warm yet a little bit grieved.

Staring at Autumn who was standing at the center of the stage, Wendy, with a piteous look, immediately attracted the reporters' attention. Soon they all rushed to her. "Mrs. Gu, what brings you here today?"

"It is the birthday party of my daughter. How could I not come? I have to wish her a happy birthday." Wendy smiled bitterly and then walked forward to Autumn, held by Yvonne. "Autumn, today is your birthday. I am your biological mother and I come to wish you a happy birthday, " said Wendy.

She then took out a small box from her pocket, opened it slowly and went on, "It is a gift for you. I should have given it to you at your wedding since it is actually a wedding gift. Take it. I wish you a lifetime of happiness."

"There is no need to give it to me. Keep it for yourself, " said Autumn in a cold tone. She didn't know what Wendy was going to do and what she had up her sleeves, but she was sure that it was just a trick or a trap.

"Don't reject her, Autumn." Seeing this, Arthur sneered and asked his assistant to take the bracelet from Wendy. "Anyway, this little gift is a token of her regard, so take it."

In any circumstances, Wendy was Autumn's biological mother and it was something that can never be changed. As for the bracelet, she could take it and donate it to those in need.

Though reluctant, Wendy paid heavily to buy this bracelet since she had to put on a play before the public today.

She looked at Autumn with caring eyes as if she was really a warm and loving mother. Seeing this, the reporters began to ask, "Miss Ye, could you explain why you are so eager to change your surname and break your relations with your mother? She is your mother. Do you really hate her so much?" The questions were getting sharper and more stressful.

"Hate her? How could it be possible?" With a grim smile, Autumn replied. 'I wish I'd never see her again for the rest of my life and I hope I had never been her daughter.

It was her, a vicious woman, who killed my father and my grandma indirectly, ' Autumn thought.

Taking a glance at Wendy, she then replied, "There is no need for me to worry about her life after all she has started a new one. Now she is taken care of by her new husband and a lovely daughter, Yvonne, so I would definitely not disturb them for now. And that is why I didn't like to go to her house when I was still a kid, because I was afraid of causing her trouble which would easily make her unhappy."

Indeed, Autumn was trying to tell those reporters that Wendy had never taken care of her when she was a child. So why should she look after her now that she had grown up?

"Autumn, you..." Upon hearing this, Wendy pretended to be sad. "Autumn, are you blaming me for not taking care of you when you were a kid? You may have misunderstood me. You know that I..."
