The Apple of My Eye

Chapter 246 Rachel's Revenge

"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.

"Are you scared now?" Rachel asked as she sank down to the sofa. "When I was with Charles, you

opposed to us being together even before you had met me. Well, I endured that. But then you forced

Charles to marry another woman, and later he deserted me. I am a well-known super star. Why should

I have to be treated like that?"

"To be honest, I don't like Edward at all. I chose to be with him because of his wealth and status. It is

also my attempt to retaliate against you. Now that I failed to get Charles, I chose another man to take

revenge on you. From now on, I will frequently visit you. Don't try to use any low means to separate us.

Edward trusts me very much. Whatever methods you implement, he won't give up on me, " she

continued with a smug smile on her face.

"Well, since I got what I wanted today, I shall leave for now." Rachel said with a sly smile as she patted

her clothes. "I will be pleased if you can attend our wedding, " she added, before leaving the Lu family's

house.

Rachel knew that Chris was unwilling to live with her and that's exactly what she wanted. Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

Edward planned to let Chris accept him slowly, but Chris didn't seem to share the same thought. She

paid this visit bearing two motives in mind. One was to tell Chris her real identity as she was unaware,

and the other was to simply piss off Gary deliberately.

Rachel was aware that Edward would blame her when he learned her doing. However, she didn't care

about it as long as she got what she wanted.

Rachel had driven Gary crazy. As he saw Rachel leave, he gave Edward a call. "The moment I told you

Chris's identity, you ran to Rachel and told her. Did you do this on purpose to enrage me? Well, Chris

knows this now. If something happens to her, I wonder if you will feel even an ounce of guilt." Gary

scolded him over the phone.

"What is going on? What's the matter with Chris?" Edward asked anxiously. He tried to understand

what had happened, but Gary ended the conversation abruptly after giving him a piece of his mind.

Although Sam was with Chris, Gary was still worried about her.

He had called Chris many times, but she didn't answer the phone.

Once Autumn reached home, she saw that Gary sitting on the lounge as he was taking medication.

"Grandpa, what's wrong? Are you all right?" Autumn asked Gary with concern. Rachel's visit had led to

an elevation in Gary's blood pressure.

"I'm fine, " he responded. He thought with a sigh, 'Since Rachel has turned up, our family have been in

a mess.'

"What is going on?" Autumn asked again to understand the stress on his face. Observing Gary's

anxious expression, she knew that something must have happened. Gary told her that Rachel had

visited earlier. "Autumn, I don't know where Chris is now. I kept calling her, but I couldn't get through to

her. What if anything happens to her?" Gary sighed as he frowned.

"Grandpa, don't worry. She will absolutely be fine, " Autumn reassured him. "Chris is an adult and she

won't put herself in danger. Besides, Sam is with her so she is safe."

"I hope so, " Gary responded with a sigh of relief.

After Autumn consoled and persuaded Gary to get some rest, she didn't go upstairs to pack her

belongings as she intended. Instead, she called Sam immediately.

As Chris was still not answering her phone, she had no option but to call Sam.
