The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 142

"That's not necessary." Yvonne stole a glance at Charles who was driving. She was afraid he would misunderstand it, so she immediately yelled to Isla, "Thank you for your kindness. But don't bother! I have someone in my heart."

"Well, you don't have a boyfriend right now. It's okay to meet more guys." Isla said to Yvonne, "Hey, I'm talking to you. Why do you steal glances at Charles from time to time?"

"I don't! Stop talking nonsense!" Yvonne was taken aback by Isla's words and yelled, "Stop it! I won't see other guys!"

"Never mind. I thought you and my friend were a perfect match. But since you don't want to give it a try, forget what I've said." Isla said indifferently. Yvonne was finally relieved as she thought Isla would stop. However, Isla continued to ask, "What kind of man do you like?"

"I refuse to answer that. It's my own business!" Yvonne answered coldly.

"Come on! Let's make some small talk. We aren't there yet." Isla gave a scornful smile and continued, "Well, is it because the guy you like is already taken?"

"Bah! That's nonsense!" Yvonne denied it at once. She dared not admit that she loved Charles.

While Yvonne was out of her wits, Charles parked the car and said, "Here we are."

Autumn raised her head and asked in confusion, "Cloud Advertising Company? Why do you bring us here?"

"Don't worry, you will find out." Charles answered with a mysterious smile. He had taken over the Cloud Advertising Company. Autumn had now become the General Manager of the company.

"Let's go." Charles held Autumn's hand and walked into the building.

Yvonne followed them. She was burning with jealousy when she saw Charles holding Autumn's hand.

Isla finally realized something. She had heard that the Cloud Advertising Company was taken over by another company. Now Charles brought Autumn here. Did it mean...

Autumn was nervous as she didn't know why Charles brought her here. Meanwhile, Ryan and Paula were waiting anxiously at the elevator. The new General Manager was to take office today. Therefore, Ryan dressed up and came early, hoping to make a good impression on the new General Manager.

Only the mysterious new owner could save Cloud Advertising Company now.

Ryan and Paula were standing by the elevator. The elevator door parted and Charles stepped out, followed by Autumn and Isla. Ryan frowned as he saw Autumn. He had thought that he wouldn't see Autumn ever again, but he didn't expect to see her at Cloud Advertising Company so soon.

He uttered no word, but Paula couldn't bear it. She walked up to Autumn and sneered, "Oh my god! How dare you come here? Shame on you!"

"Why can't she come here?" Isla stood between Paula and Autumn as she spoke, "Are you the boss? Or is there a rule that says Autumn is not allowed to enter?"

"Come on. Isla Zhao, I know you are good friends." Paula taunted. She cooked up the story that Autumn had copied from others and received kickbacks from Party B. But Autumn looked great right now, which enraged Paula.

"Isla Zhao, she has a bad name now. I don't think it's wise for you to defend her like this. Others might think you are on the same side." Paula said coldly.

Isla retorted, "I know her well. As for the rumors, we both know who cooked those up. Autumn is a capable lady and she can always find a good job, unlike you!"

"I admit she is more capable than I am. However..." Paula laughed and continued, "She has become notorious. Now every company is staying away from her. But... I have to admit she is a beautiful woman. She can find a good husband and be a housewife."

"I agree with you on that. She will find a good husband and have a happy family in the future." Isla held Autumn's hand and said proudly, "Autumn will definitely be happy. Don't be jealous of her!"

Isla and Paula bickered with each other without stopping. Autumn pulled Isla away and said in a light voice, "Isla, don't argue with her."

"Come on! I'm defending you." Isla said indifferently.

Ryan frowned as he walked to Charles and said, "Mr. Lu, I don't know why you are here. But we have something really important today. Could you please come back tomorrow?"

"Yes, please." Paula disliked Charles very much. If it weren't for him, Ryan would still trust her and the Cloud Advertising Company wouldn't be in trouble now. "Autumn Ye, you are not a part of Cloud Advertising Company anymore. Please don't come here. You are no longer welcome."

"It's not decided by you!" Charles said in a cold voice, "Paula Pan?"

It took a long time for Charles to remember Paula's name. He said seriously, "You are fired!"

"Hahaha!" Paula laughed out loud and taunted, "What makes you think that you can fire me? Charles Lu, you were our client before and I dared not offend you. But now, you are not our client anymore. You are nobody here and you don't have the right to fire me. This is Cloud Advertising Company, not Shining Company. Understand?"

"I was unable to fire you before, but now..." Charles gave a tiny smile. Before Paula could say anything, Ryan suddenly realized something and asked Charles with a frown, "You... you are the buyer of Cloud Advertising Company?"

"No, I'm not." Charles smiled. He grabbed Autumn's hand and said to Ryan, "From now on, she is the General Manager of Cloud Advertising Company."

"Wh... what?" After Charles' announcement, Ryan, Paula and Autumn were all shocked. Autumn murmured, "What did you just say?"

"I said... this is your company now." Charles said to Autumn.

Isla had already guessed it. Hearing Charles's declaration, she walked to Autumn and said in a cheerful voice, "Autumn, congratulations. Now your dream has come true."
