The Apple of My Eye -
Chapter 58 You Should Come With Us
"It is because of you that I want to work in Shining Company. I know I'm not as competent and good as your expectations. But trust me, I will work hard and I won't disappoint you," said Yvonne.
"It isn't a big deal. And you don't have to come here next time if there is nothing important." Charles saw through Yvonne. He knew that she just wanted to get close to him with the excuse of thanking him for the job.
"I had to come here to thank you because I should be grateful to you for giving me a chance to work here." Yvonne also added, "Charles, I have given enough thought to this. To express my gratitude to you, I want to... invite you for a meal. Would you like to have a meal with me? You can eat whatever you like."
Charles didn't want to expose Yvonne's lies for the sake of Autumn. But now Yvonne was being even more unreasonable, which made him really want to unmask her real identity. He hesitated and didn't do that.
He tried to be patient and told Yvonne, "No, thanks. It is your sister who wants you to work here, so you should actually thank her instead of me."
"I just can't just thank her, "shouted Yvonne. She was going to take this opportunity to be alone with Charles. She thought that she would definitely attract him with her pretty and charming looks. And it had nothing to do with Autumn.
Noticing that Charles looked a bit confused, Yvonne realized that she had made an indiscreet remark. She immediately calmed herself down and said, "I mean although my sister had put in a good word for me you are the one who made the decision. Thus, I have to thank you."
"Here's an idea." Charles mocked a smile. He detested Yvonne very much. "Your sister has come here for work today. You can go to tell her about this. If she is willing to go with us, you can book a table; if she says no, I won't go either. We are family members now and we should have meals together."
"What?" Yvonne frowned and said to Charles, "She also works here?"
"Yes. Is there anything wrong?" Charles looked confused and nodded.
"No... nothing." Yvonne was very furious, but she still pretended to stay calm, as if nothing had happened. She smiled and said, "Charles, where is... my sister right now?"
"She is at the Secretary Department. You can see her if you open the door and step out," said Charles flatly.
Yvonne pulled a long face the moment she heard the words 'Secretary Department'. She still held back her dissatisfaction and anger. She said to Charles, "It's settled then. I go out and look for her now." Yvonne turned around and left. Charles gave a sly smile, watching her walking out of his office.
Yvonne was very furious when she came out of his office. She turned her head and saw the words 'Secretary Department' on a door. She laughed sarcastically and rushed inside. She went and angrily stood in front of Autumn.
Autumn was reading the company's pamphlet. When she felt that someone stood in front her, she looked up. She slightly frowned at the sight of Yvonne. "Why are you here?"
"Shouldn't I be the one asking you this question?" Yvonne sneered and added, "You are so shameless. You just broke up with your first boyfriend, and now you even dare to come here."
"Shut up." Autumn frowned, grasped Yvonne's wrist and said, "If you have something to tell me, let's go out and have a talk."
"Why do we have to go out to talk?" Yvonne broke away from Autumn's grip and said, "Do you fear that you would be disgraced? You shouldn't do such disgusting things. I tell you, Charles..."
"Just shut up!", shouted Autumn. When Yvonne mentioned Charles, Jenny and Linda suddenly raised their heads and stared at both of them.
Autumn tried her best to be calm and said in a low tone, "If you don't want others to know that I'm Charles's wife, you should get out of here with me."
Autumn walked out of the office. Yvonne hesitated for a while and followed her.
Autumn was right. Yvonne didn't want people in Shining Company to know that Autumn was Charles's wife.
All the people in the company knew that Charles was Yvonne's brother-in-law, so Yvonne couldn't let others know of the real identities of Autumn and herself.
Autumn went to the staircase landing, turned her face to Yvonne and said, "What do you want?"
"I also want to know what you want to do." Yvonne sneered and said, "Autumn, others don't know who you are, but I know you well. Don't you forget, you are using my identity and you are just a substitute. If you dare seduce Charles, I won't let you off so easily."
Autumn's lips puckered and she didn't say anything.
Yvonne sneered and asked, "What's up? Why are you not saying anything?
Autumn Ye, you are so shameless. I am telling you that you should quit your job as soon as possible. Otherwise, I will take actions and drive you out of here." Yvonne coldly added, "You are such a crafty woman. You told me before that Charles didn't agree to let me be his secretary. Now I understand your purpose. You just wanted to grab the chance and become his secretary instead."
"Believe it or not, Charles made the decision on his own. It has nothing to do with me." explained Autumn flatly.
"Oh, don't pretend that you have nothing to do with it." Yvonne laughed grimly and added, "He made this decision because of you. Do you think that no one knows about the affair between you and Sam? Autumn, Jane was so nice to you, but she at last didn't allow you and Sam to be together because of your humble background. The Lu family is much richer and more prominent than the Lin family. Do you think that the Lu family members will still be kind to you after knowing about your real identity?" Yvonne continued, "Do you think that... Charles will still be so nice to you after he knows that you aren't the real Yvonne Gu?"
Autumn was shocked and looked pale, but she calmed herself down and stared at Yvonne. "You can tell him everything if you are so fearless.
I don't know what he will do if he knows that I'm not Yvonne Gu. But if he knows that you ran away from the wedding..."
"Shut up!" Yvonne was red-faced. "I warn you if you tell others about this matter, I won't let you off!
And just leave Shining Company right now. No one likes you here."
"Don't worry." Autumn sneered and said, "I work here temporarily. When Charles employs an excellent secretary, I will leave in no time.
Are you done? If so, I have to go back now."
"Stop." When Autumn turned around and was about to leave, Yvonne stopped her. "Now I can allow you to work here. I'm going to invite Charles for dinner tonight. You should come with us."
"You invite him for dinner, but why are you asking me to go with you?" Autumn frowned and added, "I don't believe that you are very keen on inviting me to the dinner."
"Do you think I'm doing this on my will?" Yvonne wouldn't invite Autumn if Charles didn't insist. "You better remember my words. You come with us tonight. And then you should look for an excuse to leave first. don't want to have dinner with you around."
