The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 67

"Mr. Lin, why are you standing in my way?" Mr. Song sneered and turned to Autumn Ye, "Bitch, so you're seducing Mr. Lin, not to mention you tried on me too. As far as I can see, you need to learn a lesson."

Mr. Song tried to grab Autumn's arm while talking but was stopped by Sam Lin. "Don't go too far, Mr. Song."

"Mr. Lin, I have to teach this woman a lesson today." Mr. Song sneered. "I look up to you because of your father, Mr. Lin. Nevertheless, I am your senior. You should remember who you are and not ruin our relationship."

"Hand this woman over to me right away and fuck off, or I will teach you a lesson too." Mr. Song said scornfully and raised his hand again.

Linda Zhao rushed over, dragged Sam aside and said, "Mr. Lin, just leave them alone please. All this happened because of the ignorance of my colleague, so let Mr. Song teach her a lesson in whichever way he wants. It's not a big deal."

Linda smiled sweetly and looked at her watch, "It's still quite early, why don't… we continue our meeting somewhere else?"

She leaned on Sam consciously or unconsciously, rubbing Sam's arm and suggesting implicitly.

Feeling nothing at all, Sam raised his hand, pushed Linda away and shouted, "Get lost!"

"Mr. Lin…" While completely leaning against Sam, Linda never thought that Sam would push her away. She fell on the ground and her dress got rumpled.

After she cleaned herself up, she gave Sam a plaintive look.

"So you are determined to set yourself against me." Mr. Song sneered. All these years, he had been enjoying voluntary seduction from women because of who he was.

It's been a while that he himself had been interested in a woman. He didn't feel as if he took any advantage of her. So for him, Autumn throwing a glass of wine on him was totally uncalled for. How could he not be furious?

"Sam Lin, be sensible and step away, or the cooperation between HKind and my company will be over today." Thinking he was senior to Sam, Mr. Song tried to take advantage of his position. In his opinion, Sam was nothing but a naive person, who was nobody in front of him.

"Sam…" Autumn sighed quietly and told Sam, "I got myself into this trouble. I can clean my mess myself. Step away, please. I don't want your cooperation with Mr. Song to be hampered because of me."

Hearing this, Sam frowned a bit. Autumn was definitely not treating him the way she should be treating him. Until this moment, Linda and Mr. Song didn't realize that Autumn Ye and Sam Lin were actually old time acquaintances.

Linda was getting crazy because of jealousy. No wonder Sam gave her a cold shoulder.

"So you two know each other. No wonder you're protecting her like this." Mr. Song laughed scornfully and said, "Sam Lin, your old man got you back to run the company. What would he think if he gets to know that you are busy picking up hot chicks after coming back?"

Mr. Song looked quite pleased. Autumn frowned and stepped in front of Sam. "Mr. Song, this is between you and me. Don't get others involved. Just take it up with me."

"Yo…you see that? She's protecting her boyfriend now." Mr. Song sneered and said, "Tell me, how do you want this to end?"

"Mr. Song, you know exactly why this glass of wine was thrown on your face. I am not going to apologize to you for this. You tell me, what are you going to do to give this thing up?"

"Little Ye, you..." Sam was trying to drag Autumn behind him. He wanted to make her understand that this was now between two men. He couldn't let Mr. Song get away after his shameful act. But Mr. Song replied, "How about you spend a night with me and I'll forget everything that happened today. And my cooperation with Sam Lin continues."

Mr. Song continued scornfully, "Think it over and answer me. Now the future of your loved one is in your hands."

As Mr. Song was laughing arrogantly, a strong and powerful fist landed on his face. Before he had the time to see who it was, he was already knocked down on the floor.

When Autumn saw who that was, she felt relieved. However, the face of Linda, who stood next to her, went pale. She murmured, "Mr.… Mr. Lu."

How is he here?

Linda clenched her fist. She did confirm that Charles had a social engagement tonight before she brought Autumn here. She thought if something bad would happen to Autumn, she might be too embarrassed to tell others but she never thought that Charles Lu would show up here.

"Are you all right?" Not giving a damn about what others on the site would think, Charles nervously held Autumn and carefully checked on her.

"Let me go first. I am fine." Autumn was slightly embarrassed and tried to get rid of his hands.

Having confirmed that Autumn was safe and sound, Charles breathed a sigh of relief and said to her, "Did I not tell you to go home after work? Why are you here?"

Linda knew Charles very well. Charles was never the type of person who would protect his female subordinates.

She had worked with Charles as his secretary for so many years. Never did she hear him say no when she drank on his behalf at the table. Of course, she would get what she deserved when the deal was finalized.

Being an inhuman boss, Charles was now getting into a fight with his business partner, for a female secretary!

Linda would never believe it if she didn't see it with her own eyes.

"Linda said if I wanted to learn, I should come with her." Autumn said frankly.

It took a long while before David Fan could finally get through Charles on the phone. He was standing at the door of the restaurant in which Yvonne Gu made a reservation. When he heard that Autumn was taken on a dinner with Mr. Song, he turned around and rushed over without saying a word. He didn't even leave a message to Yvonne.

Fortunately, he made it on time.

Worried as he still was, Charles gave Linda an expression of 'this isn't over' and stood in front of Mr. Song, holding Autumn's hand tightly.

"Mr. Song, when I came in, I overheard that... you would let it all go if she spent a night with you. Can you tell me what exactly happened before?" Charles was smiling radiantly, but Mr. Song felt creepy.

He stood up and wiped the blood off the corners of his mouth. He had certain respect for Charles. So he asked, "Mr. Lu, is this woman... your secretary?"

"Yes..." Charles nodded slightly and asked, "Is there any problem?"

"Look at this wine all over me!" Mr. Song was really good at standing facts on his head. He pretended to be innocent in front of Charles and said, "Your secretary is really impressive. She seduced me in the first place, but accused me of being indecent and threw this wine on me. I am telling you, I won't let this go, till I get what I want."
