The Substitute Bride

Sam never thought that Charles would bluntly talk about his relationship with Autumn. After a little hesitation, he said to Charles, "Mr. Lu, now that you're being all frank, I'll not hide my intentions from you. To be honest, she is the reason why I came back. I broke her heart several years ago. But this time, I want to win her back again."

On hearing Sam's words, Charles frowned and said, "So you have decided to be my rival, right?"

Sam laughed and said, "I left her because I didn't want to put her in an awkward situation because of my mother. I still can't forget her, but I'll never get her into trouble because she is now married to you."

Charles didn't understand Sam's words. He asked in confusion, "What did you mean?"

Sam replied with a slight smile on his face, "You're smart, so you should know what I mean." Autumn wasn't married to Charles for long, but Sam knew she really loved him.

Although he loved Autumn, he didn't want to destroy her happy married life.

He remembered a sentence.

The best way to love someone is to see her live a happy life. That was what Sam was thinking now.

"She really likes you. Last night you risked your life to protect her. I saw her cry for you when you got injured. After that, I understood that you two are in love." After pausing for a while, Sam continued, "As she has chosen you, I'll respect her decision. But..."

Charles frowned and interrupted him immediately, "What do you mean But?"

Sam said seriously, "But if you break her heart, I'll steal her away from you. Then, you just can't blame me for it."

"Don't bother yourself. You'll never have that chance." Charles began to like Sam now. 'It will be good if he becomes my brother-in-law.' He thought to himself.

Charles flatly said, "Now that we're done talking about Yvonne. Let's talk about Chris." These two women were the most important people in his life, so he didn't want to see any of them get hurt. He continued, "I have grown up with Chris, so I know her well. Once she falls in love, she never changes her min

ely, "No, Sam. You don't have to explain this." She was sad, but she still pretended as if nothing had happened. She continued, "Sam, you're right. I have misunderstood you. I always thought that you were fond of me. But in fact, you never said that you liked me or gave me any hint. What I feel for you has got nothing to do with you. I don't blame you. You don't have to blame yourself for this either. "

Chris squeezed a smile on her face, and continued, "I have to leave now if you have nothing else to say. My grandpa is waiting for me at home..."

"Chris, you.." Sam felt heartbroken, but he didn't know why. He proceeded, "I don't mean that I dislike you. I just treat you like my little sister. I will help you if you get into any trouble in the future. Do you understand me?"

"Yes, I do." To hide her sad face from Sam, Chris lowered her head. She continued, "Sam, I knew that you treat me like your sister, so I'll try to be your good sister and not bother you."

Sam tried to explain further, "You..." But at this time, Chris removed his hand and stepped back. She bowed to Sam and said, "Bye, Sam!"

He tried to seize her hand but failed, so he just stood there still and let her go.

'Nothing will change even if I grabbed her hand. What else can I explain?' Sam thought.

When Chris turned around to run away, tears were streaming down her face.
