The Apple of My Eye

"Ye, since when has there been a mad dog running wild at your home?" Isla had never met Yvonne before, although she did hear of her. Without Autumn introducing Yvonne, Isla could guess who she was

Before Autumn could say anything, Yvonne standing nearby couldn't remain silent any more. She turned her gaze from Autumn to Isla and shouted, "Who are you to interrupt me?"

Autumn refrained from talking back. She knew she had had enough of Yvonne's bad temper. She was about to say something, when Charles stood up.

Since Yvonne moved in, Charles had been ignoring her. He looked through Yvonne and at Autumn. "Darling, have you finished your breakfast? I would like to take you to a nice place. You can come with us, Isla."

"Alright." Isla was pleased with Charles'a attitude. She and Autumn got changed and were about to walk out of the door, when Yvonne rushed to Charles and gave him a flirtatious smile. "Charles, look at my sister. I'm her sister, but she is getting help from someone else to gang up on me. Anyway, I'm going to move into the main building tonight. The servants' house is dirty and small. How can I live in that place?"

Yvonne took Charles's hand tenderly and asked, "Charles, how could my sister treat me that way? After all I'm..."

"She can do that because she's the hostess of this house." Charles dropped Yvonne's hand and said with a straight look. "This is her house. She decides who can and can't live here. If you're not willing to live in the house for servants... That's fine with me. You can go back and live with the Gu Family any time."

Charles smiled bitterly. "Please tell me if you decide to leave. I can ask my chauffeur to drive you home."

"No, " answered Yvonne angrily and anxiously. How could she go back, like a beaten dog, with her tail between her legs?

She swallowed her pride and said to Charles sweetly, "Charles, I just got confused. I'm so sorry. Can you forgive me?"
