  • Zack was startled by her action, he can never share the same table with his boss, but before he could deny Edward turned to him and said in a serious tone, “Didn’t your heard what your mistress said”
  • Zack was still in a dilemma but Edward’s one glare and Zack was sitting on the empty chair.
  • Edward was so happy, he thought that she might be ignorant about the people around her but no, she takes care of everyone and for her everyone is equal.
  • They had dinner in peace, Mr. and Mrs. Walker were happy for Autumn, she had already suffered a lot losing her parents at an early age and after that, she was caged in the name of safety.
  • They just want all the happiness for Autumn.
  • After finishing their lunch they all headed home, after reaching home everyone went to their room.
  • Edward came to his bedroom with Autumn, the moment they entered the room, Autumn said in a serious tone, “Mr. King thank you so much”
  • Edward turned to her and said, “I don’t find your thanks genuine”
  • Autumn frowned and said, “But I am really thanking you from bottom of my heart”
  • Edward said, raising eyebrows, “Seriously?”
  • Autumn nodded immediately,
  • Edward said, “If your thanks if from bottom from your heart then you should call me Edward”
  • Autumn replied immediately, “But we are not that close”
  • Edward leaned closer to her and said, “Honey we are about to get married just in a few days so how come we are not close?”
  • Autumn retorted, “But I haven’t agreed yet”
  • Edward also replied, “But you will, honey, and moreover I would suggest start practicing calling he hubby, honey baby or any such sweet nick name”
  • He saw Autumn turning red in shyness. Autumn wanted to say something but she felt like her throat went dry with the thought of calling him such a sweet name.
  • After lunch, Edward insisted Mr. and Mrs. Walker accompany him to meet his parents and the couple agreed immediately. It was their honor to meet the King's family.
  • In the evening everyone headed to the King’s old mansion for dinner, Edward’s parents were very excited.
  • Mrs. King thought that finally, his son got his awaited wife; they were so eager to meet them that Mrs. King was standing at the door to welcome her daughter-in-law. On the other hand, Mr. King was worried that his wife might suffer a blood pressure issue because of too much excitement.
  • He had already kept a team of doctors on standby. He never takes any risk when it comes to his wife’s health.
  • It was worldwide known that how much Mr. King loves his wife and that was also the reason Edward wanted to wait for his Samara (Autumn)
  • He also wanted to love her as his father does to his mother.
  • And soon a rally of cars entered the premises of the mansion and Mrs. King’s excitement was reaching its peak.
  • The moment the car came at the entrance of the door, Zack opened the door for Edward and Edward opened the door for Autumn.
  • Seeing Autumn Mrs. King felt like her heartbeat may stop, she never thought that her son will choose such a beautiful girl as her daughter-in-law.
  • She could say that she had never seen any girl as beautiful as Autumn, the moment Edward stood in front of Mrs. King with Autumn by his side.
  • Mrs. King ignored Edward completely as if he was invisible she walked ahead and kissed Autumn’s forehead and murmured proudly, “My daughter-in-law”
  • And just saying this she fainted, Edward immediately caught her before she hit the floor.
  • Mr. King immediately took her to their bedroom and the team of doctors started doing their work.
  • Seeing all this Autumn and Mr. and Mrs. Walker were dumbstruck, they were unable to understand what’s going on.
  • After making sure that Mrs. King health was under control, Mr. King walked out of his bedroom followed by Edward and said, “I am really sorry, you had to see this”
  • “This happens with her whenever she gets too much excited, please be comfortable, she is fine and she will be out in some time”
  • After listening to Mr. King’s explanation, Autumn and the couple sighed in relief.
  • Mr. King walked towards Autumn kissed her forehead and said, “Welcome, to Kings family, dear”
  • Autumn didn’t understand how to respond, it was the first time in her life to deal with such elegant people, she never thought that such filthy rich people would be such grounded people in person.
  • She just smiled back to him, Mr. King cannot deny that his son had good eyes, he turned to Edward and said, “You have got good eyes like your Dad”
  • Indirectly Mr. King took the credit.
  • After making sure that Mrs. King was fine they all headed to the living room, after settling down, the first thing Mr. King asked was, “Eddy, when are you planning to get married, I would suggest you to get married as early as possible”
  • “Because I don’t think your mother could hold on any longer now, when she had seen Autumn”
  • Edward smiled and said looking at Autumn, “Dad we are registering our marriage just in few days"
  • Autumn glared at him, she wanted to say that she hasn’t agreed yet, but she was unable to open her mouth because of Mr. King's calm but intimidating personality.
  • Mr. and Mrs. Walker spoke to Mr. King for some time, when Edward asked the butler, “Where is Ethan?”
  • Butler bowed in respect and replied, “Young master, he keeps himself busy with orphanage work”
  • Edward felt a little uneasy without Ethan, he wanted him here.
  • As they were chatting, Mrs. King came out of her bedroom followed by two maids; she smiled warmly at Autumn and sat next to her.
  • She took Autumn’s hands in her hands and said, “Looking at Edward, your wait was worth”
  • “You got me the most beautiful daughter-in-law, I am proud of you”
  • Edward smiled proudly, Autumn also felt so good in this atmosphere, Edward’s family was not a typical rich family, who would like to have a rich girl as their daughter-in-law.
