The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 332

Sam's face dimmed as he came out of the doctor's office. He was worried about Autumn because she always had to endure attacks, hatred and bitterness from so many people. Despite all that, she never complained to anybody about it. Her mild mannered nature was an open invitation to those who wanted to cause her trouble.

"Is she all right? What did the doctor say?" Chris asked him with much worry. "Is Autumn going to be okay?"

"She'll be fine." Sam added, "The doctor told me that she was overwhelmed by work and caught a cold. But don't worry. She will get through this. It will be easier to recover once the fever is gone."

He didn't tell Chris everything. Chris felt better after hearing his reassurances, but Sam remained wary of Autumn's condition.

"Mr. Lu." Sam approached Gary and said, "It's getting late. You should go home and rest. Chris and I will stay here and take care of her."

"Okay." Gary nodded and said, "Thank you."

"You are welcome." Sam asked his driver to drive Gary home, then he said to Chris, pointing at an empty bed, "Stop crying. If you won't, your eyes will be swollen in the morning. You look really tired. You can have this bed and rest here."

"I'm fine." Chris said wiping the tears from her eyes. "Please stay and watch over Autumn for a moment. I am going to wash my face."

Then she left the ward. After washing her face, she called Charles. She wondered how Charles could fully concentrate on his work while his wife was so sick. Did he know that Autumn was rushed to the hospital?

Chris was ready to lose her temper, ready to give him an earful. Charles had better answer the phone immediately.

Charles had just lost a program that day. To drown his disappointment, he had drunk some wine at a party. That was when his phone rang. Unfortunately he couldn't hear it because of the loud music.

Leila was enjoying the situation and persuaded him to drink a lot of wine, making sure that his glass was never empty. By the time the party was over, he had gotten quite drunk.

Leila took a lot of her strength to carry Charles back to the hotel. Looking at his handsome face, she wanted to stay with him in that moment forever.

"You know what? I love you so much." She lay beside Charles on the bed and lightly ran her fingers on his face, from his forehead, along the bridge of his sharp nose, down to his irresistible lips. Then she said, "I fell in love with you the first time I saw you. And I've been in love with you since. I have made great efforts to stand by your side and I won't give you to anyone else."

Leila looked at Charles affectionately. Charles was drunk and almost completely unconscious. She took this chance to voice our her feelings for him.

"Charles, I want to call you this way instead of calling you 'Mr. Lu.' I am jealous of Autumn every time I see you two together." Leila stretched out her arms and unbuttoned his shirt. "Charles, I have waited for this moment for a long time. Now... I have the chance to lie beside you while nobody bothers us."

Leila removed all her clothes and Charles'. Then she kissed him. Although Charles was drunk, he could tell that the woman beside him was not Autumn, so he pushed her away and fell asleep.

Charles pushed her so hard that she landed on the floor. Extremely frustrated, Leila picked herself up and yelled, "Autumn! What did you do to him to make him so loyal to you?"

She had tried so many times but failed every single time.
