The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 256

But it was the President who invited her, and it seemed impolite to refuse. Thus, Autumn reluctantly nodded her head, "I am honored." She lied.

After Mr. Seiten left, Hoada Masahiro went to Autumn jubilantly. "Miss Ye, you've done an excellent job today. The President speaks really highly of you. It had been the best choice I have ever made in my life, letting you make the project plan."

After the proposal meeting, his supervisor told him immediately that his promotion had become a sure thing.

"You are welcome, Mr. Hoada. It has been my honor to do so." With a faint smile, Autumn said, "Well, about the budget…..."

"No problem, we'll talk into the details later at the party." Hoada Masahiro smiled happily, patting Autumn on her shoulder slightly, "I have to go now."

Suddenly, Autumn did not feel well in her stomach. She had no idea whether it was due to the raw food or not. She went to the restroom.

Sitting in one of the cubicles, she thought of sending Charles a text message with the good news, but decided to just tell him in person. After a while, there seemed to be some noise in the restroom. Autumn heard the sound of the door being locked. She heard Paula's voice first, "Hoada Masahiro, how dare you fool me? "

"How could that be?" Then the obscene voice of Hoada Masahiro followed, "You asked me to recommend you, and I did it. But it was true that Autumn did much better on the proposal. It was the President himself who made the final decision. I could not be the one to blame, could I?"

"You……" Paula furiously clenched her teeth. "What you've promised me was that my company would win in the proposal meeting, but what just happened now? Even worse, I lost face in front of Autumn once again. Aren't you afraid that I'd tell everyone what you've done?"

With a sneer, Hoada Masahiro said, "Paula dear, how could you take it so seriously, what a man says during sex? I did say it to let you participate into the proposal meeting. But it would be too much for me if the failure was due to your lack of skills, wouldn't it? I could not stop you if you want to spill the beans, at all events...... I won't be the only one losing face, you will too."

Autumn held her breath, trying her best not to make a sound inside the cubicle. No wonder Paula was here. Such a dirty deal turned out to have been dealt behind her back. Autumn never thought that a person like Paula, who was so proud, could painstakingly go through such things in order to beat her.

"You......" Paula raised her hand, intending to slap Hoada Masahiro. She had paid a high price, but it turned out to be a futile one and she just could not help but explode in anger.

Hoada Masahiro caught hold of her hand the moment she tried to land it on Hoada's face, "Miss Pan, there is no denying it that you're really good in bed, but…… you lack the working ability though, not to mention your horrible temper. I do hope that we have nothing to hide next time we see each other."

"In your dreams." Paula felt numb with hatred. Unfortunately, she could do nothing but clench her fists.

Hoada Masahiro was unwilling to waste his time on Paula. He was clear in his mind, that what he had done with Paula was just for fun and could not be taken seriously.

After walking out from the restroom, he would still be the one with glory in front of everyone. He was the Hoada Masahiro who would be met with congratulations and surrounded by admiring peers. Thanks, obviously, to Autumn's great performance.

But that was not the case for Paula, who had paid a high price.

With the noise of Hoada Masahiro and Paula's roaring argument, Autumn couldn't help shaking her head. Why were there so many stupid girls in the world, having a fancy that they would be rewarded as long as the price to pay was sex? But what those girls did, unfortunately, would only be looked down on and despised by men.

Autumn came out of the cubicle after making sure that there was no one else in the restroom. Thinking of what had just happenned, She left the Light House Company, with a heavy heart.
