Chapter 240 A Tool For Swindling Money



Chapter 240 A Tool For Swindling Money

"That very year while your father was sick, he always worried that your mother would blackmail the

Zhao family by using you. That was why he never told them the whole story. Your father didn't want you

to be used as a tool for Wendy's plans, do you understand that?" With a wry smile, Emily said, "Do you

remember that your mom made a hell of a fus at your father's funeral? She said that she'd have to take

you back, but what happened then? She had been looking for the Zhao family when she was taking

care of you, probably to ask for support. But when she couldn't find them, she wasted no time and sent

you back to me. You still remember, right?"

Autumn nodded, with her face cold. She did remember that.

When Wendy brought her home that year, Autumn was really happy. After all, kids would always be

happy to stay with their parents. However, Wendy only gave her a difficult time, which was totally the

extreme opposite to how she treated Yvonne.

"When your father was dying, he told me that his greatest wish in life was to see you return to the Zhao

family. But I am now too old, and my capabilities are limited. I have tried everything I could to get in

touch with the Zhao family, but I wasn't able to even get a number. Meeting them in the hospital must

have been fate. I must now fulfill the young master's wish." Emily said, holding Autumn's hand. This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.

"Autumn, I did not tell this to you before, but it is the whole truth. I was afraid that you wouldn't be able

to bear it. Now that the Zhao family has returned, they really want you back. You are now a grownup

and I am sure that you have developed your own wisdom and judgement. You do know who is good to

you and who is not. I just hope that you don't turn them down. Give them a chance and try to accept

them and see if they are really good to you. By then if you still are not willing to go back to them, I will

certainly not stop you anymore." Holding Autumn's hand, Emily said, "Remember, it was your father's

dying wish. Now, it is also mine. Could you promise me?"

Autumn frowned tightly. She did not know whether she should promise or not. She was totally confused

by what Emily had just said. She was losing her focus with all this pressure.

"Grandma, let me think about it." Autumn did not make a promise right at that moment, but she did not

turn it down either. Emily was right, that she could already make her own sound judgement. She knew

Abby well for she had been in contact with Abby for quite a while now. The same could be said about

Doctor Zhao.

Deep inside, she wanted to try and get to know the Zhao family.

When Autumn came out from Emily's room, Arthur had not left. He was sitting on the couch, talking to

Charles. Seeing Autumn come out, he stood up quickly, and in an awkward manner, he said, "Autumn,

do you have some time later? I want to take you somewhere."

Autumn shook her head, then nodded. Arthur smiled with amusement.

Arthur took Autumn to a cafe where there were cubicles to sit in. He brought Autumn into one of the

cubicles, while he himself sat in another one. After a while, Wendy also entered the cafe. But due to the

partitions, she didn't see Autumn there.

"You've come." Arthur said dryly. "I've already ordered a cup of coffee for you. See if you like it.""

"Thanks, Doctor Zhao." After a sip, Wendy asked Arthur, "Doctor Zhao, what was it you wanted to see

me about today?"

"It is about Autumn." Looking coldly at Wendy, Doctor Zhao continued, "She is Bowen's only daughter.

And she is yours, I know. I just want to ask you today, if we, the Zhao family would take her back, as

her mother, will you agree?"

"Well…..." Wendy paused, then said, "I'm afraid that's not appropriate."

"What is not appropriate? Tell me." Doctor Zhao said with a sneer.

"As you know, Doctor Zhao, Bowen died so early, and from then on, I had been taking care of Autumn.

To me, she is my only one." With a wry smile, Wendy said, "I know that the Zhao family is a reputed

family. But Autumn is my daughter and I wish that she would be with me for ever. No matter how my life

goes, I will never treat her badly, and you have my word."

"Well, as far as I know, you have another daughter from your second marriage." Doctor Zhao paused, "I

don't think that your current husband wants you to take care of someone else's child. It would lighten

your burdens if we have Autumn back."

"Don't worry, I really have my husband behind me on this. There's nothing to worry about." Wendy said

with a smile.

"Wendy, let me be honest. I've already gotten in touch with Autumn. But she still have grudges against

us right now. I've come here to ask you, what nonsense you've told Autumn?" Doctor Zhao sneered

continuously.

A weird smile flickered across Wendy's face, 'Autumn is just too naive, it is really easy to deceive her.'

"Doctor Zhao, is there any misunderstanding?" Wendy smiled coldly.

"Come on, I've known you for a long time, right? That very year when Bowen died, you had sent a

message to us that you would like us to have Autumn back if we gave you ten million. I am just curious,

how much you want this time?" Doctor Zhao said with a sneer.

Wendy frowned lightly, the Zhao family had gone abroad before she sent the message that year. Until

then she knew that it was impossible to make money by making use of Autumn. And that's why she

sent Autumn back to Emily after that. But she never thought Arthur would know it.

With a sneer, Arthur said, "Feel free to name your price. Autumn is one of us, the Zhao family. No

matter how much you ask, she's worth it."

Wendy struggled in her mind. It was complicated for her at the moment. She had no idea what to do.

She said to Arthur, "After all, I have had taken care of her until she grew up. The price should be equal

to that. Fifty million and I might consider it."

As soon as Wendy said it, Autumn came to the cubicle and stood in front of her. "Why you…… Why are

you here?"

"Wendy, you've really overturned my perception of you time and time again. I am not your daughter at

all, but a tool for cheating people and taking their money, am I not?" Autumn was smiling bitterly, her

trembling voice and misty eyes said it all.
