His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 299

The building was so quiet that one could hear the sound of footsteps before they could see someone coming. Upon getting that head start, Leila spotted Autumn walking in the direction of Charles' office, 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, Leila 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."

Leila 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 Leila 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 rather compromising position.

Charles was sitting back in the chair while Leila 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 Leila kneeling there and that was enough to spark a doubt. She couldn't help but doubt the nature of the relationship between Leila and Charles. Leila sneered secretly for successfully delivering her trick while Charles was panicking. In a bid to explain everything he said, "Autumn, don't misunderstand. It isn't as bad as it appears."

"We were not doing anything." Leila pretended to get up hastily to explain 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.

Leila 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..." Leila 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 Leila did this on purpose.

"What are you saying?" Charles tried to explain 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." Leila stood here like she was wronged and added, "It's all my fault. I dropped coffee on Mr. Lu's clothes by accident 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 Leila impatiently as she saw through her vain plan. Autumn understood Leila's nature more than she realized. Even though she looked innocent on surface she was nothing but an evil woman in reality.

"I..." Leila 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. Leila 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 accident 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 Leila 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."
