The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 245

The next morning Emily got out of bed earlier than her usual time. She had begun to lose her sight so she didn't see Autumn walk up to her.

Earlier in the night, Autumn had received a call from Arthur. Upon noticing Emily's receding eyesight, he gave her an advance notice. When she went across the room to Emily, she greeted her, "Grandma, good morning." She wanted to cry but she held back her tears and pretended not to notice Emily's poor vision.

"Autumn…" Emily responded with a smile as she held Autumn's hand, "Chris said you came back late last night. Even if you are busy working, you should pay attention to your health."

"I see, " Autumn comforted Emily as she stroked her hand, "Grandma, I can take good care of myself. As long as you live a comfortable and healthy life I will be happy."

"I am too old to give you company any longer. After I leave the world you still need to live an active and happy life. This is the circle of life, my journey with you is about to end but you need to continue on yours with all the best. Please do take care of yourself, " Emily laughed, "Your breakfast is ready."

Autumn planned to look after Emily but her offer was rejected politely. As Autumn opened the door to leave for work, she saw Sam.

"You are coming to pick up Chris, aren't you?" Autumn asked joyfully. She was so happy at just the thought of Sam and Chris falling in love with each other.

Sam nodded and explained, "My parents are arriving today and I would love to introduce Chris to them."

"I am leaving. Chris will come downstairs in a moment or two. Please have a seat and make yourself comfortable while you wait for her." As soon as Autumn arrived at her office she got a call from Hoada Masahiro. He said, "Miss Ye, I have made the flight reservation for you. It's scheduled for tomorrow."

"So soon?" Autumn asked in surprise, "Isn't the plan to be presented three days later?"

"Yes but I was hoping that you could come here in advance to get an idea of the arena and conditions and prepare accordingly. After all it is an important plan. I am worried that you may embarrass me if you are not fully prepared."

On the other end of the line, Masahiro continued as he knocked on the table, "Last time we met, I also promised to be your guide when you come to Japan. This is a good opportunity for me to show you around."

Autumn was not interested in sightseeing and gallivanting with Masahiro, but… She thought of Charles in Japan and instinctively wanted to surprise him there.

"Okay, " Autumn finally agreed as she nodded and hung up. Then she asked Isla to come to her office and said, "Isla, I am going to Japan tomorrow. The company… I trust you and only you. Please handle and take care of the affairs as you deem fit."

"You are leaving tomorrow?" Isla was shocked. She added as she absorbed what she had just heard, "Why are you in such a hurry?"

"Masahiro booked my tickets. When I leave please take over the plan made for the Giant Promise Company." Autumn worried about the company's operation but she had no choice. The plan to be presented in Japan was her only chance to change the inferior situation. If she succeeded, it would be a big turning point for her company's future.

"I understand. Please don't worry. The company is in safe hands." Isla's confident tone was a comfort to Autumn. In the afternoon, Autumn went back home to pack up and prepare for the sudden trip. Ryan became the Deputy General Manager when Charles bought the Cloud Advertising Company for Autumn. However, he was in charge of nothing important, so it made no difference whether he was on duty or not. In other words, he had become an irrelevant person in the company.

Soon after Autumn left, Ryan began to create trouble. He stole all the documents about Andy's company when Isla was not in her office.
