The Apple of My Eye

Softhearted as he is, Charles consoled Yvonne. She had just lost her baby and the doctor said that she had less than thirty percent chance of conceiving again in the future. Charles felt sorry for her.

His words of consolation gave Yvonne hope somehow. She stepped forward, holding his hand and said, "Charles, you still care about me. You must love me, or you would not comfort me today."

"Have you lost your mind?" Charles got rid of her hands and stepped back. "Haven't I made myself clear before? If you dare make any more trouble for Autumn, I promise that I will take some steps next time and you will regret it."

"Charles, if you dare leave me alone today, I will call the police right away. I will tell them it was Chris who pushed me and caused my miscarriage. If she gets arrested, how long do you think she will be imprisoned?" Yvonne burst into sneer. She thought Charles would be threatened but he remained expressionless.

"Are you threatening me?" Charles coldly asked, squinting at her.

Filled with guilt, Yvonne hesitated. But she could no longer take back what she had just said. She was convinced that Charles could not bear his sister going to jail and that she could win him back.
