The Apple of My Eye

But Leila was no longer the old, nice Leila. When she had just started her work in the Secretary Department, she was unfamiliar with anyone, and had to rely on Linda. But now, she had become independent and strong, and didn't need to suck up to Linda. When the time was ripe, she would overtake Linda, bit by bit until she would replace Linda, and become a capable assistant to Charles.

With that swirling in her mind, Leila let out a scornful chuckle. It was not the right time yet. For now, she would let Linda have her day for a while longer.

At the same time, Charles had asked David to come to his office, intending to ask him to investigate the rumors about Autumn. Out of Charles's expectation, David frowned and said, "Mr. Lu, I have heard the rumors about Mrs. Lu, and I am wondering whether I should tell you about it."

"Tell me what's going on." Charles said with a slight frown.

"Cloud Advertising Company was the one that planned our annual celebration before you cancelled our cooperation with them. Then yesterday when I visited Cloud to pay our bills, as I walked out of their finance office, I heard several staff talking about Mrs. Lu. I then lurked in the corridor for a while and listened. What they said about Mrs. Lu was outrageous." At that time, David was furious, but all he could do was listen and report it to his boss, "Do you remember someone we have met before named Paula? She was the one who started the rumors, and fabricated many stories to ruin Mrs. Lu. "

Since Autumn left the company, Paula was always reprimanded by Ryan. She hated Autumn more because of that. As far as she was concerned, Autumn was the root cause of all her troubles. Driven by hatred, Paula started to speak ill of her. And Ryan, because he was turned down by Autumn, allowed Paula to do that.

"So now word is getting out that Mrs. Lu is a treacherous copycat. And no company wants to employ her." David looked at Charles who have fallen silent with a sour look on his face. Obviously, it was him that had caused Autumn lots of trouble.

"Speaking of which, how is Cloud doing now?" After a long pause, Charles asked calmly.

"Cloud's accounts have been in trouble. And since we have severed all ties with them, the company is at a dead end. Right now, Ryan is like an ant on a hot pan, but can't do anything to save his company, except scratch his head."

"Can we buy the company?" Charles thought out loudly, fingertips tapping on the table. If no company wanted to take Autumn in, he would purchase them all and reshape the business circle for her. With him owning the Cloud, Autumn would have to undertake Shining Company's PR job. That would be perfect.

I think so." David answered. He had worked for Charles for many years, and knew exactly how his mind worked. Because the Cloud had treated Autumn badly, the company would never get away with it. Being
