The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 316

Autumn felt anxious, but she didn't show it on her face. She had a bad feeling that something would happen during Charles's journey to Europe.

In the meantime, Rachel's wedding ceremony with Edward was approaching. Since Rachel was a celebrity, the news of her wedding received great attention from mainstream media. As a result, reports of their marriage overwhelmed Autumn.

"You know what? Today I called Rachel and asked her when we could see the main hall, but she told me to wait until after her wedding. I was pissed off, " Isla complained while watching the news about Rachel. The more she saw Rachel's face on TV, the more furious she got.

Upon hearing this, Autumn gave a bitter laugh. Embarrassed as she felt, she had told Andy about this in private. After all, she couldn't allow any hiccups at the Giant Promise Company's press conference.

Andy said that he would consider changing hotels if Autumn wasn't allowed to check out the site.

"Autumn, what's up? You look unhappy, " Isla asked cautiously. 'Lately she has been in low spirits. Is she in any trouble?' Isla thought.

"I'm good, " Autumn replied, shaking her head. 'I don't know if it can be called a trouble. I just feel depressed that Charles has been too keen on his work these days. It sounds ridiculous, ' she teased herself.

"Are you really okay?" Isla continued. Autumn was noticeably upset. "If you need to find someone to confide your problems in, just come to me, " Isla said with a sigh, for she realized that Autumn was unwilling to tell her for now.

"I will, " Autumn returned, nodding. She looked at her watch, and stood up hurriedly. "It's getting late. I have to go to the airport to see Charles off. He is flying to Europe today, " she said to Isla.

"Want me to give you a ride?" Isla asked.

"No, thanks, " Autumn answered immediately. "Pay the bill. I have to go now, " she added.

Autumn was in a haste to grab a cab. However, she was caught in a traffic jam. When she arrived at the airport, Charles's flight had already taken off. Soon she recieved a message and it read "Take care of yourself. I will get back as soon as I finish my business there." 'He must have texted this after boarding the plane, ' she thought.

Charles had paid more attention to Autumn than before since that night. Despite this, he would spare time to send a message to her if he went somewhere, or give Autumn a call and asked her not to wait for him if he didn't come home for dinner.

Autumn was satisfied with this. However, she felt uneasy at the thought that Charles was going abroad for a business trip with Leila.

Last time in Japan she didn't mind this for she was there as well. But this time she felt restless.

Autumn let off a sigh for failing to see her husband before he left. She comforted herself that Leila wouldn't succeed as David was also with Charles.

Although she had faith in Charles, she didn't trust Leila.

As she turned around, getting ready to leave, she saw David walking out from inside. 'He didn't go with them. What is this?' Autumn thought with a frown, her heart beating faster.

"David!" Autumn greeted, striding toward David.

"Mrs. Lu? Why are you here?" David asked Autumn in surprise.
