His Real Wedded Bride

Chapter 199 You Came Here to Gloat

Arthur came to see how Autumn was, and to check on her grandmother. After making sure that both of

them were okay, he got up and prepared to leave, but Autumn's grandmother stopped him, "May I...

have a moment with you?"

"Hmm..." Arthur hesitated. Autumn noticed him looking at her and considerately said, "I'll clean

grandma's room so you two can have some privacy."

"This is about Autumn, isn't it?" asked Arthur after Autumn left.

"Yes, " Autumn's grandmother nodded. "Arthur, Autumn has been through so much. I hope you could

help her... At least stop her pest of a mother from harming her again."

Then she told Arthur what happened today - that Wendy asked Autumn for money. Arthur's face

clouded.

"Autumn can't help it. No matter what Wendy does to her, she still regards her as her mother, which

Wendy takes advantage of, " sighed Autumn's grandmother.

"Is Simon Gu the man Wendy married?" asked Arthur.

"Yes, you know him?" Autumn's grandmother asked back.

"Not really, " Arthur replied. "I heard that Simon has a son with his ex-wife, is that true?"

"Yes, " Autumn's grandmother answered. Not many people knew about it in Y City, but she did. "Their

son was miserable, too. I saw him when he was a kid, but I heard that he went abroad with his

grandparents, and I never heard about him ever since, " she recalled.

"I see. I'll handle it, " Arthur promised with a nod. "You must rest and don't worry about it. Leave it to

me. I'll protect Autumn. No one will hurt her again."

Then he smiled and added, "I've called my wife and told her that I have found Autumn. She is very

excited. She will be in Y City in two days. And... we're not leaving anymore. We'll be here for Autumn."

"That's great. That's great... " Autumn's grandmother said in relief. 'Autumn will no longer be alone, '

she thought happily.

It had been several days since Joanna had an operation, but she had not gotten out of coma. It worried

Aron and he visited Arthur's office every day to ask about Joanna's condition. Arthur would reassure

him of his confidence in her recovery.

The next morning after visiting Autumn, Arthur stopped Aron as he was walking out of his office.

"Wait a minute, Mr. Gu, " Arthur called to him.

"What's the matter? Has my grandmother's condition changed?" Aron asked anxiously.

"No, it's not about your grandmother, " Arthur said lightly, "There's a personal matter... that I'd like to

ask you a favor for."

"Sure. I'll help you if I can, " Aron replied without hesitation. Although Arthur came back from abroad on

the request of Charles, he did help Aron a lot. And Aron was willing to repay him... as much as he

could.

Arthur smiled at what he heard, "It's... not a trivial matter, though. I know that it may cross boundaries,

but I have to have the courage to say it. Aron, is Simon Gu... your father?"

"How did you know that?" Aron asked in a wary tone and his face clouded instantly. "Did he ask you to

persuade me? I tell you, I'll never forgive him. Tell him to stop dreaming."

"So you really are his son." From Aron's fierce tone and sullen face, Arthur could tell that Aron hated

Simon. All his previous doubts had now dissipated. "Don't worry, Aron. I'm not on Simon's side. I just

want to tell you that I can help you take Gu's Group back if you want, " Arthur reassured Aron

"Who are you?" Aron asked with his arms crossed. He had always thought Arthur was just a regular

doctor, but with such an offer he made, he couldn't help but be suspicious.

"I... I am doing this for my granddaughter, " Arthur said in a flat voice. "You should know that Wendy

had a daughter before she married your father. Her daughter is my granddaughter, Autumn Ye."

"Mrs. Gu?" Aron's eyes widened in surprise. It never occurred to him that there should be such a

connection between Autumn and him.

"Yes. It's a long story. If you have the time... " Before Arthur finished his question, Aron had sat down

and interrupted, "Yes, I have enough time to hear it today. Please tell me all about it."

He had somehow always felt a certain familiarity with Autumn. He listened intently as Arthur detailed

everything. After the long story, he fell silent. "You know my motives now, Aron. Do you want to join

hands with me?" Arthur asked.

In fact, Aron didn't take Gu's Group seriously at all, but it should have belonged to his mother as well,

and he didn't want her efforts to fall into other people's hands.

So he gave Arthur a nod and said, "Yes, let's join hands, but... " Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

"But?" Arthur was pleased to hear that Aron said yes, but then frowned at the precondition.

"But it has to be put on hold. Now the most important thing for me is my grandmother's health. And it

has you preoccupied, Doctor Zhao... " Aron said lightly.

"Rest assured. I'll do my best to help your grandmother." Arthur replied firmly.

Coming out of Arthur's office, Aron came across Yvonne. Wendy, who was going through the hospital

formalities for her, kept talking about something to Yvonne who looked bored.

'It has been really messed up, but it's not completely my fault. Without Autumn, I would be with Charles

now.' she thought.

Suddenly she saw Aron. Then she rushed to him, leaving Wendy. "Aron, you must be happy to see me

like this. Anyway, I'm your sister. Not only did you frame me, you came here to gloat. Don't you think I

have been shamed enough?" Yvonne viciously pointed at him.

"What are you talking about?" Aron wasn't expecting such an attack. "This isn't your hospital. It's my

freedom to come here. You're not in a position to forbid me!"
