The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 339

"During your overseas business trip... did you happen to meet Aron in Europe?" Autumn finally decided to talk it over with Charles and put an end to the matter, otherwise, this would forever bother her.

"Did I meet Aron? I did not." Charles expressed his shock as he answered her question.

"Aron..." Autumn managed to blurt out what she knew, "Aron told me that he found Leila and you in a jewelry store. Moreover....."

"Oh, now I understand what was bothering you! " In one swift moment after hearing her, Charles leaped off the bed and immediately took out two boxes from his briefcase and handed it over to Autumn, "Open them and be prepared for a surprise."

"What are in these boxes..." Upon opening the boxes, Autumn was pleased, relieved and surprised to find the bracelet and necklace she had been admiring for a while.

"Why don't you try them on? Charles urged, "As Leila was your colleague and a woman, I thought she would be able to help me choose jewelry that you would like. With that in mind, I asked her to accompany me into the store."

Charles sighed, "Out of all the possible things, this is rather unnecessary for you to quarrel with me over something so trivial!"

Autumn's face turned red with embarrassment and guilt. "I misunderstood you..."

"You should come to me directly for the truth. I hope in the future you will not be so hasty as to believe anyone who says something in a bid to harm our relationship!" Charles then considerately made a suggestion to Autumn affectionately, "You are too jealous."

"I will not do it next time." Autumn acknowledged her mistake and also managed to reveal her nightmare to Charles for him to interpret what it could mean, "The other night, I had a dream that you chose to marry Leila as she was carrying your child, which led to our separation. I really..."

The nightmare remained with Autumn like a lingering fear. Charles tried to minimize the effects with comforting words.

Rachel and Edward slept together. After midnight, Rachel put a sleeping pill in the cup of milk which Edward had a habit of drinking every night, she then trysted with Roger, while Edward was unconscious and completely unaware of her betrayal.

Rachel's fear of being dogged steered the path to her being paranoid and excessively careful. Rachel knocked on the door, only to be pulled in by Roger.

"What happened? Is everything fine? It is impudent for you to demand an urgent meeting with me in such a manner, as there could be nothing as serious as ever..." Rachel took off her sunglasses as she expressed her disappointment, "I will be the one to contact you if necessary. Such sudden meeting may cause suspicions."

Rachel allowed Roger to be a submissive and meek sex partner. She would abandon him if he continued to act against her will.

"Rachel, I..." Roger held Rachel tightly and importuned, "I was denied the role in the film."

"Take it easy, no more of such spineless actions." Rachel pushed away Roger impatiently. She took pains to tryst with Roger, only to find that Roger was busy complaining and nagging. "Get down to business!"

"I..." Roger looked at Rachel with a serious expression, "I encountered Charles Lu and his wife today."

After that, Roger saw an increasing astonishment and excitement on Rachel's face which she could not conceal.
