    Autumn flushed immediately at what Charles had said. "I''m going to take a shower, "

    She said with her cheeks blushing red, running away from Charles''s embrace.


    The elders always woke up early. When Autumn got up, Emily was already talking to Gary. She had


    told Gary many interesting stories from Autumn''s childhood. Gary found them quite amusing.


    "She is such a quiet girl now. I find it hard to believe that she was a troublemaker as a kid, " Gary said,


    "Indeed. She is a quiet girl now. But she used to make a lot of trouble as a kid. Her father had punished


    her a lot back then, " Emily said, smiling. "But she has a kind heart. She has spent a huge amount of


    money and has even sold her house, to help pay for my treatment. I owe her a lot, " Emily continued,


    looking sad.


    "I don''t have much time left anyway. She shouldn''t have wasted so much money on me, " she sighed.


    "I''ve brought her so much trouble."


    "Grandma..." Autumn interrupted as she didn''t want to hear Emily me herself anymore. "I heard that


    you told Gary all about my embarrassing moments from childhood, " she changed the subject.


    "You got me, " Emily admitted bluntly. ''Although Autumn always got into trouble as a kid, she was very


    carefree and cute. Unlike now, she always keeps her problems to herself and tries to handle everything


    on her own, '' Emily thought, feeling sorry for Autumn.


    "Gary, don''t believe her, " Autumn turned to Gary, after she gave an angry nce to Emily. "I used to be


    an obedient and polite girl."


    "Yes, you were. Even though you almost burned down your teacher''s office, " Emily said, with a serious


    look. "Except for that, you were always a good girl."


    "Grandma!" Autumn said in a bit of anger, looking embarrassed.


    Gary and Emily burst intoughter. Making fun of Autumn seemed to be their choice of entertainment.


    After having breakfast with Emily, Autumn went to thepany. An intense atmosphere had shrouded


    thepany now. Everyone was buried in their work. During lunch break, Autumn went to an


    Automobile Sales Service Shop 4S with I.


    "You always said that you didn''t need a car when I asked you to buy one. Why do you suddenly change


    your mind?" I asked curiously.


    Autumn was attracted by amercial van. ''Grandma can lie on the backseat, '' she thought. "Now that


    grandma is living with me, and sometimes I will have to take her to the hospital for checkups. I don''t


    want to bother Charles every time. The subway is always crowded, and it''s inconvenient for grandma to


    take the subway. If I buy a car, I can drive grandma to the hospital myself, " Autumn replied.


    "You are too formal with Charles. He is your husband. You don''t need to feel guilty for asking his help to


    take grandma to the hospital, " I advised. "Besides, look at the car you chose. Why do you want to


    buy this type in particr?"


    "Don''t you like it? I think it''s good and very practical, " Autumn said. "This car has enough internal


    space. If grandma feels tired, she can lie in the backfortably, " Autumn continued smilingly.


    "If that''s what you want, " I responded after a pause.


    Autumn decided to buy it and paid the initial down payment.


    "Your husband is the CEO of Shining Company. Why don''t you just choose to pay for it all in one-go?


    Did Charles refuse to give you the money to buy a car?" I asked in confusion, when she saw


    Autumn pay the down payment.


    "I haven''t told him about it yet." "Why didn''t you discuss it with him before buying a car?" I raised her


    voice, with her eyes wide open.


    "I want to give him a surprise, " Autumn answered, looking awkward. In fact, she kept Charles in the


    dark deliberately. ''If I had told him about this, he would have insisted on paying for the car. But that''s


    not what I want, '' she thought to herself.


    "I think it''s going to be more of a shock, rather than a surprise, " I said.


    I''s words were right. When Charles found out that Autumn had bought a car behind his back, he got


    angry at her and didn''t speak to her.


    After apanying Emily to her room, Autumn decided to apologize to Charles. She entered their


    room with a te of fruit sd, hoping to please Charles with it. However, she couldn''t find Charles


    there. Then, she went straight to the study, and knocked on the door. Soon, Charles''s cold voice came


    from the study, "Come in."


    Autumn pushed the door open slowly. "I saw that you didn''t eat much during the dinner, so I brought


    you a te of fruit sd. Try some, " she said, putting the fruit sd on his desk.


    "I''m not hungry, " Charles responded, with a serious expression on his face. ''Do you think that a te


    of fruit sd will please me?'' he thought.


    "Are you mad at me?" Autumn asked, pulling Charles''s sleeves as she stood beside Charles.


    "You should know, " Charles replied coldly.


    "I know that I shouldn''t have kept you in the dark about buying the car..." Autumn apologized, lowering


    her head.


    "I know you very well. Although you''re apologizing to me, you still think that you did nothing wrong,


    don''t you?" Charles asked angrily.


    Autumn stuck out her tongue jestingly, which aptly answered his question. The truth was, she didn''t


    think she had done anything wrong. She didn''t tell Charles about this only because she didn''t want him


    to spend more money for her.


    When Charles looked at Autumn''s expression, he knew that his assumption was right. He knew what


    Autumn was like, but he still couldn''t help but get angry at her.


    ''Why won''t she spend my money? Doesn''t she think of me as her husband?'' he wondered in anger.


    "Come on! Stop being angry, " Autumn coaxed in a soft tone. "I bought the car because I don''t want to


    give you any trouble. With this car, it will be more convenient for me to take grandma to the hospital


    whenever I need to, " Autumn exined in a low voice.


    However, this infuriated Charles even more.


    "Give me any trouble? Why do you always think like that?" Charles asked furiously. "Am I not your


    husband?"


    "Of course you are, " Autumn replied resolutely. "I didn''t tell you, because I regard you as my family. I''m


    trying to save your money. You just handed me apany to run by myself, but I still haven''tnded


    any big contracts yet. I couldn''t ask you to buy me a new car."
