Chapter 299 An ident Designed By Le


    The building was so quiet that one could hear the sound of footsteps before they could see someone


    she immediately rushed to his office with a cup of coffee.


    "Would you like a cup of coffee, Mr. Lu? You seem tired and it looks like you could do with a pick-me-up


    right about now." In a clumsy movement, Le pretended to drop the coffee all over Charles'' pants. She


    then squatted between his legs to clean the mess she deliberately created and apologized, "I''m so


    sorry, Mr. Lu."


    Le then let out a helpless and grieved expression but she was indeed quite happy.


    "Just hand me the tissue. I can clean it myself." Charles tried to push Le away because he was too


    embarrassed to have her touch his body in this manner. It all seemed so inappropriate to him.


    Right at this moment, Autumn swung open the door and saw them two in a ratherpromising


    position.


    Charles was sitting back in the chair while Le was kneeling against the floor and wiping his pants.


    They looked very intimate with each other, so Autumn couldn''t help suspecting Charles had betrayed


    her.


    "You are..." Autumn couldn''t exactly clearly see what had happened because the table was blocking


    her view, but she saw Le kneeling there and that was enough to spark a doubt. She couldn''t help but


    doubt the nature of the rtionship between Le and Charles. Le sneered secretly for sessfully


    delivering her trick while Charles was panicking. In a bid to exin everything he said, "Autumn, don''t


    misunderstand. It isn''t as bad as it appears."


    "We were not doing anything." Le pretended to get up hastily to exin to Autumn but fell into


    Charles'' arms. Charles tried to support her but he too fell on the ground with her because of her


    sudden weight.


    Le was ecstatic secretly but she put on the show of being sorry and embarrassed as she apologized


    to Charles, "I''m sorry, Mr. Lu. I didn''t do all this on purpose."


    Keeping up the charade, yet reluctant to leave Charles'' arm, she tightly grasped him. Charles frowned


    and said, "Fine. You can stand by yourself now."


    "Okay..." Le responded with reluctance. She then stood up slowly, noticing Autumn looking at her


    with piercing cold eyes.


    "What are you doing here, Autumn?" Charles stood straight and walked up to Autumn.


    "Do you mean that you don''t want to see me here? So much for surprises." Autumn was annoyed and


    now lost her cool even though she knew Le did this on purpose.


    "What are you saying?" Charles tried to exin the entire mishap to her and said, "That is not what I


    meant and you know it!"


    "Please believe Mr. Lu. I''m sorry, Autumn. This is all my fault." Le stood here like she was wronged


    and added, "It''s all my fault. I dropped coffee on Mr. Lu''s clothes by ident so I wanted to clean it for


    him. I didn''t mean for this to cause a problem between both of you!"


    "Just shut up!" Autumn shouted at Le impatiently as she saw through her vain n. Autumn


    understood Le''s nature more than she realized. Even though she looked innocent on surface she


    was nothing but an evil woman in reality.


    "I..." Le pretended to be frightened but internally she was really happy with how the night was


    unfolding.


    Earlier, no matter how much trouble she had caused to Autumn, she had never lost her temper. But


    now she was annoyed. Le believed she had found Autumn''s weakness.


    "Autumn, this is enough!"


    Charles was already exhausted from all the work. What happened now was simply an ident in his


    eyes. He wondered why Autumn was getting so overworked over something so trivial.


    Autumn had never behaved like this before.


    "Enough?" Autumn looked at Charles in amazement. In that moment, she felt Charles had changed


    because now he was dismissing her and asking her to remain silent in front of another woman.


    A sudden impulse to tell Charles what Le had done earlier gripped her suddenly, but she gave up the


    idea upon seeing Charles'' face.


    She smiled bitterly and said, "I know you haven''t had dinner yet, so I brought over some food for you. I


    did not intend to bother you, I am so sorry. I need to go now."


    Autumn put the food aside on the table and left Charles'' office almost immediately.


    "Hold on, Autumn..."


    Le tried to call her back and exin the situation but Charles held Le back and said, "Leave her


    alone."


    "But..." Le added with a aggrieved expression, "Mr. Lu, I think Autumn must have misunderstood our


    rtionship. Please let me exin what happened to her."


    "No, that is not required of you." Charles said indifferently. He wanted to give Autumn some time to


    calm down before he would exin to her what had happened once he went back home.


    "I think you should say some kind words to your wife." Le pretended to give some thoughtful advice


    and added, "Autumn is just like a little girl..."


    "Enough!" Charles got impatient and asked, "Don''t you have your own business to deal with? Stop


    meddling in my rtionship and making the situation worse than you already have with your clumsy


    behavior!"


    "Yes I do..." Le answered reluctantly and left Charles'' office.


    The second she walked out of his cabin she revealed her evil face immediately. She felt so happy and


    content to nt that misunderstanding in Autumn''s mind but her rtionship didn''t get any further


    development.


    She then sat down to decide and n how to manipte the delicate situation further.


    "Le!" David returned with food as Le was mulling over her devious ns. David cast a nce at


    her and asked, "Did Mr. Lu''s wifee to the office just now?"


    "Yes, she did. So what happened?" Le felt distressed every time she heard anything about Autumn.


    "I greeted her but she didn''t respond. She looked like she was in a terrible mood. Do you know what


    possibly happened here?" David puzzled and yet worried. He had never seen Autumn like this.


    "Why are you so concerned about her? Do you have a crush on her? Is this what this is about?" Le


    asked him with a sly smile.


    "Don''t just speak utter nonsense!" David snapped back with a frown.


    Le returned to her own seat and started dealing with the files.


    Autumn didn''t go home after leaving Shining Company. She didn''t know where she should go as she


    was overwhelmed with emotions.


    She didn''t know what exactly bothered her so much. ''Was it because the ''ident'' nned by Le?''


    she wondered.


    She then negated this idea immediately. Somehow, she felt she couldn''t control her emotion and


    couldn''t help getting worried even though she knew in the bottom of her heart that Charles would never


    cheat on her.


    She hung outside for a long time before she returned to the deste house.

    Neither Charles nor Chris had returned home.


    She sat in the sofa quietly without turning on the light, waiting impatiently for Charles to tell him that she


    couldn''t bear Le any more and what had lead her to feel this way. She desperately wanted to clear


    the air.


    "Good night! I''ll leave now." She was in a daze until she finally heard Sam''s voice entering the house.


    "Okay, I''ll call you first thing tomorrow." Chris entered the house after saying her goodbye to Sam. She


    was scared as she turned on the light and found Autumn sitting in the sofa almost lifeless.
