Chapter 352 Mess Up (Part Two)
Chapter 352 Mess Up (Part Two)
Wendy smiled bitterly and patted Yvonne on the back of her hand. "Let's go. We are not wanted here."
"No, I won't go. Now that we are here, we have to make everything clear." The troublesome half sister
gave her mother a wry smile. "Mom, you have the heart to bear it, but I don't. What does she mean by
doing that? Why is she so hell bent on severing ties with us? Is she worried that we will ask her for
money?"
Yvonne stepped closer to Autumn. "You should know, when my mother heard that you were going to RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
change your surname to Zhao, she was so angry and stressed that her old illness re-surged. Today we
had just come from the hospital just to congratulate you on your birthday. She sticks up for you at any
time, but you still decide to change your surname. Do you think you are worthy of what she had gone
through because of you?"
People naturally had a soft spot for mothers and began to condemn Autumn. The lovely birthday party
was finally ruined halfway, which annoyed the celebrant. At this time, Arthur Zhao, who was standing
on the stage, opened his mouth to speak.
He gave Wendy the coldest stare and said, "I didn't want to say these words at first, because Autumn
once said that you were still her mom after all. And I will also show you some respect for Autumn's
sake. But how shameless of you to come here and ruin this birthday party. But I have to clarify my
position even if it upsets Autumn. Since Autumn is my only granddaughter, I must protect her from
being misunderstood by other people, which is clearly your intent in coming to crash this party."
Arthur had lost all his tolerance of Wendy Ye. He continued, "You eloped with my son, Bowen, many
years ago just because you thought that he was a man of wealth. But when you found that Bowen was
not as rich as you expected, you thought of leaving him. As a result, after you gave birth to Autumn,
you thoughtlessly left her for Bowen to raise her alone. You then, disappeared with an amount of
money which you extorted from Bowen. I haven't wronged you with these words, right? The heavens
bear witness that every single word is true. "
Arthur smiled with scorn. "Bowen died of depression shortly after you abandoned them. You haven't
taken good care of Autumn at all. She was brought up only by Emily. Everything I said also matches
the fact, right?"
"Stop talking nonsense here." Yvonne retorted. "My mother certainly took her back home and looked
after her closely for a long time. It was she herself who was unwilling to stay with the Gu family
anymore. My mother is not the one to blame for it!"
The esteemed doctor ignored the troublemaker. His gaze did not leave Wendy, and he said with surety,
"Autumn and Emily could only depend on each other. Life was hard enough for them, but you were so
heartless that you kept adding to her pains and giving her a hard time. Your pathetic family business
needed financial support from Shining Company to survive the crisis, so you came up with the
connections by marriage. At the very beginning, you wanted your wretched daughter to marry Charles,
but Yvonne Gu ran away from the wedding. So, in order to still make your plan work, you blackmailed
Emily with documents and forced Autumn to marry Charles in Yvonne Gu's place. Now in a beautiful
twist of fate. Autumn is now getting along with Charles perfectly in this marriage. Your regret must be
killing you and eating you alive, every time you see them happy together."
By this time, no one had an idea whom to believe, but Arthur's words could well explain why Autumn
would marry Charles. His story seemed more credible.
"Wait. There's more. That was not the end of it. Later, you found that Charles was a man of striking
appearance and he treated Autumn quite well at the same time. So you egged Yvonne to seduce
Charles. However, to your burning disappointment, during Yvonne's disappearance, Yvonne had an
affair with other man and got pregnant. In the end, the baby was aborted, and you had not choice but to
give up the Charles plan." Once again, Arthur's words caused an uproar among the guests. Everyone
began to feel sorry for Autumn. Supposing that Arthur Zhao didn't distort the facts, then how much
hardship did Autumn Ye suffer to get where she was today?
"Emily didn't get timely cure for her illness, and now she can hardly see anything. It's all caused by you.
As for all these things that I stated just now, I didn't do you any wrong, did I?" The head of the Zhao
family asked her with great eloquence, which made Wendy melt with embarrassment. Part of her
wanted to fade away, but on second thought, Wendy still decided to stay. She should try her utmost to
achieve her goal, otherwise, her coming here would go for nothing.
She turned around to look at Autumn on the stage, saying with pretended grief, "My daughter, if these
accusations against me make you happy, then I will make a confession."
She gave a bitter smile to Autumn and then deeply bowed to the reporters. "Yes, I am such an
irresponsible mother. I hope that you never put my daughter in an awkward situation. Whatever she
wants to do, I will give her my support. I hope that you can understand a mother's great pains."
Dumbfounded, Autumn could say nothing. She just looked at Wendy. At first, Autumn thought that
Wendy would contradict grandpa's words, but she acknowledged all of it. Her act of humility made
people believe in her words more.
Autumn could not bear it. She stepped down the stage and stood in front of Wendy. She asked angrily,
"Wendy Ye, what the hell do you want from me?"
"I just wanted to come and see you." Wendy wanted to take Autumn's hand, but she drew her hand
back with embarrassment because Autumn avoided her. "I know that you have been resentful that I
treated Yvonne better than you. But I have to clarify that in my heart... both of you are my precious
daughters. There is no difference between you two."
"Can you stop acting here?" Autumn shouted at Wendy, getting impatient. "What will you get from
doing this? Or are you happy enough that you embarrassed me on my birthday?"
"You are not as important as you imagine." Yvonne pulled Autumn aside and said, "Mom only came to
see you. As for me, I cannot restrain my anger anymore. I came here today to lay bare your true
character. You can refuse to accept me, because I don't need you to accept me anyway. But you have
to keep my mom, the one who gave birth to you, in your life."
"Miss Ye, excuse me, could you respond to what Doctor Zhao has said just now? Are those all true?"
The reporters asked Autumn one after another.
Autumn hesitated and said nothing for a long time, but finally she nodded. "Yes, it's all true."
"Could you please show us some evidence?" A verbal statement without any proof had no credibility.
Autumn thought it over and wondered, 'How could there be evidence for such things?'
Autumn frowned a little. Yvonne sneered before Autumn could say a word, "What kind of proof can she
bring out at this time? Even though she shows any right now, it must be forgery."
"I..." Autumn still knitted her eyebrows. Now, she felt quite helpless that the two conniving bitches had
the advantage over her. After a long while, she shook her head and was ready to tell the reporters that
she had no evidence at all. But salvation came at the perfect time. Behind the crowd came a male
voice, "I am the evidence."
Hearing the voice, the crowd parted to give way to this man who appeared out of nowhere. When the
man eventually walked to the front of Yvonne and Wendy, they stood gazing at one another, looking
very tense.
"What are you doing here?" Wendy put her hands on her hips and asked him.
"Thanks to you, Autumn and I have become good friends. I have come to take part in her birthday
celebration." It was Aron. Arthur had divined that such situation was likely to occur today, so he also
invited Aron here just in case.
"Aron, I think you had better mind your own business." Yvonne warned Aron nervously. To a large
extent, Aron was a very favorable witness. Without his appearance, Autumn was doomed to be
defeated in her own party.
