The Apple of My Eye

"Don't get me wrong. Something happened to Rachel, and I only went to help her." Charles explained.

Autumn didn't expect Charles to explain it to her. She smiled in embarrassment, "You don't have to explain it to me. We are only partners. I don't care about your private affairs. But please be careful not to be caught by the paparazzi."

"Okay." Autumn's serious expression annoyed Charles and he suddenly had no appetite left. He dropped down the chopsticks and said, "I'm full."

Autumn went blank for a moment. She thought Charles was in a bad mood because of Rachel. She cleared away the bowl and chopsticks and went upstairs.

As the servant was away, Autumn got up early the next morning. There were eggs and wheat flour in the kitchen. She mixed the flour and water to make dough and then made some omelettes. Charles woke up in high spirits this morning.

The house was full of the smell of omelettes. Charles glanced at the kitchen, his eyes softened.

He suddenly felt the warmth of home because of Autumn.

"Come and have breakfast." Autumn greeted Charles. The omelettes and freshly ground soybean milk gave Charles a good appetite. He felt he would be more picky about food because of Autumn.

"Charles..." Charles was about to go to work after breakfast, but Autumn timidly stopped him, "I'll go to work by subway. You don't have to drive me to work."

"Did I tell you I would drive you to work?" Charles glanced at Autumn and thought, 'Other ladies want me to drive them so badly.

Fine! Why should I show excessive passion to such a cold person?'

Charles left the house, without looking back. Autumn stayed still. She was dumbfounded. 'Did I say anything wrong?

Charles looked upset.' Autumn thought to herself.
