The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 13

Autumn had been waiting for a while now. When David, Charles's assistant, came to meet her, he saw her sleeping on the sofa.

Autumn was told that Charles's meeting would be done in ten minutes, but it had lasted for over thirty minutes. Since Autumn didn't get enough sleep last night, she unintentionally fell asleep. This made David feel awkward.

David knew that Miss Ye was actually Mrs. Lu. if he woke her up, she might get angry with him. He wondered, 'What if she decides to take revenge from me?'

Luckily, David didn't have to wait too long. An unexpected visitor appeared in the busy office.

"David." David was wondering whether he should wake up Miss Ye or not when he heard someone call his name. He turned around and saw a beautiful girl with a bright smile on her face. It was Rachel Bai. He then got worried and also awkward.

OMG, Charles's wife and girlfriend were under one roof. What worse could happen?

"Miss… Bai." David got very nervous. He began stammering. He really hoped that Mrs. Lu could sleep for some more time so that there wouldn't be any awkward moment in the office.

Unfortunately, hearing Rachel's voice, Autumn woke up. She stood up and tidied her wrinkled clothes with her hand and asked David, "David, is your CEO's meeting over now?"

"Well…" David, looked at Rachel and Mrs. Lu, feeling awkward.

Both these women were the people David couldn't dare to offend. 'OMG, is my boss a playboy?' David thought.

"Is she a new secretary?" Rachel was familiar with this company. She knew every staff member here. She thought Autumn was a new employee here.

Seeing how pretty Autumn was, Rachel got a little vigilant. She handed over a bag to Autumn and instructed her, "Go, distribute these tea cakes to the staff. I need to discuss something with your CEO and nobody is allowed to come in and disturb us."

Rachel ordered Autumn arrogantly. She intentionally asked her assistant to buy some tea cakes so she could bribe the staff here.

Seeing the bag in her hand, Autumn frowned.

"Hurry up!" Rachel scolded. Since that night, Charles maintained a distance from Rachel. As the news of their relationship spread, Rachel had to use this chance to take quick actions and improve their relationship.

But she didn't know a new secretary could ruin her good mood.

Rachel didn't know Autumn. But Autumn knew Rachel very well, because she was a public superstar.

Autumn got really angry as Charles had made an appointment with her first to discuss the plan but he asked Rachel to be present in the office at the same time.

"I am not…" When Autumn wanted to say No to Rachel, David who was standing right next to them took the bag from Autumn and said, "Well, I will distribute these cakes."

David looked at Rachel and said, "Miss Bai, you need to wait for a while because our CEO has an appointment with…"

"Who do you think is more important than me?" Rachel was confident and opened the door of Charles's office. But Charles didn't even look at her and said, "Don't you know that you should knock the door before coming in? Where are your manners?"

"Charles…" Rachel was familiar with this company so she acted casually. Charles had never treated her like this before. This new behaviour of him left her hurt and angry.

On hearing Rachel's voice, Charles raised his head and found out that Rachel was standing at the door. He frowned and asked, "Why are you here?"
