Chapter 66 Sam Stood Up For Autumn


    So Charles Lu was confident that she could handle the situation and close the deal on her own. What


    she said to Sam Lin today was only to reduce the distance between them.


    Linda Zhao rxed a bit. She smiled and told Sam, "Let''s drink, Mr. Lin. It is important to have fun in

    life. It doesn''t make any sense to care so much about the trivial details. Don''t you think so?"


    Linda smiled and filled Sam''s ss again. "I know you are not feeling well, so I bring you red wine this


    time. So… should we have a toast on that?"


    "Sorry, I don''t drink wine." Sam said faintly.


    Linda looked embarrassed for a second but continued, "Mr. Lin,e on… this is really embarrassing."


    "Howe…" Sam smiled and said, "Peter will drink with you, okay?"


    When Sam stopped talking, Peter stood up. "Miss Zhao, please don''t make things difficult for Mr. Lin. I''ll


    drink it up with you. Please consider it as our redemption."


    Peter drank up the wine without saying another word. No matter how hard Linda tried, Sam didn''t drink


    at all. Linda was getting a bit anxious.


    Till now, Sam didn''t drink any wine. Linda knew very well that several business deals were closed at


    this table only after the involved parties were satiated with food and drinks. If Sam remained as sober


    as he was now, she might not be able to finalize the deal.


    Linda stood up and put her hands on Sam''s shoulder. "Mr. Lin, about the cooperation..."


    While she was talking, Sam stood up in an instant. Although he was talking to Linda, his eyes were on


    Autumn. Seeing Mr. Song force Autumn to drink, he could no longer sit still.


    "Lin… Mr. Lin, what''s wrong?" Linda was shocked. So was Mr. Song who was seated on the other side


    of the table. He stopped what he was doing to check on Sam, "Mr. Lin, what''s the matter?"


    "Nothing..." Sam struggled in his heart but finally sat down and told Linda, "Take a seat. There are a


    few details about the cooperation that needs to be rified. Peter will discuss the same with you."


    "OK…" Linda took a seat by his side. Peter raised a couple of specific questions and Linda gave him


    the appropriate answers. Indeed, she was quite a professional at work.


    "Mr. Lin, I have no further questions." After getting satisfactory answers, Peter told Sam, "Miss Zhao


    made a great offer and the product quality is guaranteed. Most importantly, Shining Company has a


    very good reputation. If you are okay with it, we can fix a time for the contract-signing."


    "Good." Sam nodded slightly and suddenly asked Linda, "Miss Zhao, who is thisdy over there…"


    Linda was ted about the cooperation. However, her smile vanished in an instant when Sam enquired


    her about Autumn. She asked Sam, "Mr. Lin, are you interested in her, too?"


    "No." Sam said cidly, "She looks kind of familiar, like a ssmate from the old times…"


    "Oh, I see." Linda took a sigh of relief and told Sam, "She joined thepany today. She is Ye. She


    works as a small secretary here. There is no way that she could have been your ssmate, Mr. Lin."


    One was a senior executive and the other was a mere secretary, how could the two be rooted from the


    same soil?


    "Is that so?" Sam frowned slightly but his eyes were fixated on Autumn. He was concerned about her.


    "Yes." Linda nodded a little. "She probably wanted to push herself forward in front of the boss so she


    desperately wanted to be here. And now she''s ying all innocent here. I don''t know what''s in her


    mind."


    Sam stopped talking while Linda was still rattling and bad-mouthing Autumn. After his efforts to force


    Autumn to drink went in vain, Mr. Song went ahead and crossed another line. He started touching


    Autumn inappropriately and reached out for her hips. Autumn stood up immediately and threw a ss


    of wine on his face.


    While she remained silent, Linda went mad.


    She hurried over and dragged Autumn away, "Ye, I brought you here to help me out, not to increase my


    troubles. What have you done?"


    Autumn brushed her off and didn''t say a word. Linda checked with Mr. Song nervously, "Are you all


    right Mr. Song?"


    "Yes." Mr. Song tried to be very patient with Autumn but when Autumn threw a ss of wine on his face


    he felt totally disgraced in front of Sam. He put on a long face and used Autumn saying, "What have


    you done? I was being so nice to you. Why would you throw this wine on my face?"


    Mr. Song sneered at Autumn, "So this is the part where the whore deres herself as a virgin. Didn''t


    youe here with Linda to sell your body? Stop ying innocent!"


    Autumn''s face turned pale and Linda didn''t look good either.


    What Mr. Song said hurt Linda''s feelings too.


    Nevertheless, Linda forced a smile and told Autumn, "Stop standing there like a tree. Come over and


    clean up for Mr. Song! And, apologize to him right away!"


    Her voice was stern, leaving no chance for Autumn to argue.


    Autumn stood by and said, "I didn''t do anything wrong. Why should I apologize?"


    Linda was so angry that her face turned green. It was not about right or wrong. What would happen to


    her future orders if Mr. Song was pissed off?


    She frowned and told Autumn, "There is no right or wrong. You offended Mr. Song. That''s why you


    must apologize."


    Mr. Song gave a scornfulugh and wiped his face off angrily. He marched towards Autumn and said,


    "Bitch, look at how I will make you suffer now."


    He raised his palm and waved at Autumn''s face heavily. Autumn closed her eyes. She was expecting


    some pain from the p but she felt nothing. When she opened her eyes, she saw that Sam was


    grabbing Mr. Song''s hand.


    "What happened, Mr. Song? Why are you so mad?" Sam was wearing a fake smile and looked


    frightening.


    Then Sam tightened his grip on Mr. Song''s hand. Mr. Song frowned slightly and asked, "Mr. Lin, what


    are you doing?"


    "Nothing." Sam let go of Mr. Song and said, "She''s ady after all. Don''t push yourself too hard on her.


    Please, don''t do it in front of me. I can''t see a woman being attacked like that."


    Mr. Song rubbed his wrist slightly and exined to Sam, "Mr. Lin, I am not someone who''s being


    unreasonable here. This woman here humiliated me and I will make her pay for it. Just don''t get


    involved in this. I''ll handle it on my own."


    "That won''t work." Sam said to Mr. Song with a big smile. He slowly stepped in front of Autumn and


    stood in Mr. Song''s way. "Now that I am here, I can''t let you bully her. Mr. Song, do me a favor, please."
