The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 254

Hoada Masahiro seemed to be completely different from their previous encounters, providing Autumn with constant reference to common topics including Japanese customs and culture. In all fairness, this inspired Autumn a lot.

They left the car behind at the entrance of Light House Company. Hoada Masahiro showed Autumn around to familiarize her with the venue including basic situations. Afterwards he should go back to the hotel. Turning to Autumn he said, "Miss Ye, this pre-tour of the company was intended to get you familiar with the venue. This should give you ideas for a wonderful presentation. Now that you have the advantage, please perfect the proposal and deliver a well-made presentation tomorrow. And please do not let me down."

"Mr. Hoada." Autumn stopped Hoada Masahiro and uttered, "I am highly confident that we can bring our proposal into fruition. You can rest assured. But there is a matter, I...."

"Miss Ye, we are friends. You are free to speak your mind to me." Hoada Masahiro assured Autumn.

"There is the question of the budget. The budget that the Light House Company currently offers to us is extremely low. It being such a case, I would be financially straitened to work out a perfect proposal." Autumn pointed out the key problem directly, but Hoada Masahiro took it calmly. "Don't worry, you will get your due so long as you drive this proposal to a complete victory. "

"Thank you, Mr. Hoada." Autumn would accept the conditions gladly in order to improve the reputation of her company. However, Autumn would not let her employees including her planners be ill-rewarded for this proposal. They have to support themselves and their respective families.

Autumn gave a call to Charles after leaving Light House Company and learned that Charles had completed his business matters for the day. Charles drove over to pick her up and spend the rest of the day together.

They went shopping throughout the afternoon until Autumn felt too exhausted to continue. Sensing his wife's fatigue, Charles decided to dine somewhere before returning to the hotel.

Although Autumn was fully confident with her proposal, she thought there was something else to be improved after the investigation and scrutiny of the company and the hotel. After dinner and back at the hotel, Autumn decided to turn on her computer to perfect the proposal while Charles took a shower.

The more Autumn worried about her proposal, the more she wanted to keep working at it. Charles came out of the shower to find her wife restlessly and anxiously staring at her computer screen.

"What is wrong?" Charles had a bath towel wrapped around his waist, the residual water dripping from his hair down to his muscular chest. This made Autumn look up and stare at him. Driven by lust, her heart started to beat faster.

"Nothing serious." Autumn shook her head to clear her mind and told Charles, "You can go to bed. I really have to complete this. For the sake of the company."

"Let me stay with you." Charles sat down beside her, looking over her shoulder and trying to understand what she was working on.

However, Autumn felt uncomfortable, as if being checked on by a boss.
