The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 273

"Autumn, please take it." Charles told her coolly. He knew that Autumn did not care about these things. It wasn't about the value of the bracelet. It was more about the sentiment surrounding it. That was the real reason why Autumn was so hesitant to accept it.

Autumn turned around at Charles with an embarrassed look.

Abby walked over to Autumn, took the bracelet and put it on Autumn's wrist, "Take it. Cindy has the other one."

Since it is already around her wrist, Autumn was too embarrassed to take it off. The only thing left for her to say was, "Thank you."

Emily was happy with what she had witnessed with a little help from Amy who told her what just happened. "I'm a little tired and want to go rest."

Abby helped Emily stand up, "Aunt Emily, let me help you. Your room has been readied and mother had also prepared the laundry for you."

"Thank you so much, my child." Emily smiled and spoke to Autumn and Charles, "It is late. You should go home to also have some rest. I know that you have a lot of work ahead of you tomorrow."

"Alright, grandma." Autumn agreed as she helped Emily get together with Abby. She also apologized to Arthur, "Grandpa....... Grandpa, please take care of grandma Emily for me and call me anytime if you need me."

"You have nothing to worry about." Arthur smiled. "Your grandma Emily is in very good hands."

She rubbed her bracelet while deep in thought.

"What are you thinking about?" Charles asked.

Autumn forced a smile and said to Charles, "I don't know why, but I feel so empty in my heart right now. It's like I just lost something very important. And I feel very uncomfortable."

"Is it because grandma did not come back with us? Grandma is now with your family and she will be very well taken care of, especially by Doctor Zhao. If you ask me, this is the best arrangement for her right now. You have nothing to worry about."

"No, it's not what I mean." Autumn changed to a more comfortable sitting position and turned to Charles. "I know that they are my family, I...... just could not get used to the idea."

"You just need time to take it all in. Things will be better, I promise." Charles understood what Autumn was feeling.

The next morning, when Autumn arrived at the office, Isla came up to her, "Autumn, have you heard about Giant Promise Company? Ryan had taken the documents away again. I'm......"
