His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 61

Linda took Autumn to a restaurant. She handed her the menu with a big smile and said, "This restaurant is well known for its delicious food. Have a look and you can order whatever you want. Please don't stand on ceremony."

However, Autumn only ordered two dishes. Linda furrowed her brows and turned to the waiter. She ordered some other dishes without taking a look at the menu. "Well, if it is not enough, I will order some more later."

"That's enough for the two of us. Maybe we wouldn't be able to finish even this." Autumn hastily told her.

Linda gave her a glass of lemonade and said, "It is your first day here, so there should be a reception in honor of you."

"Are you familiar with this place?" Autumn asked. Just as the old saying goes: people should take things as they come. Thinking of this, Autumn calmed down. She also wanted to figure out what Linda had got up in her sleeves.

"Yes. I used to eat here with Jenny." Linda pretended to mention Jenny unintentionally, and then she made a pretense of embarrassment. She clamped her hand over her mouth. Linda explained to Autumn, "I am sorry. I didn't mean to mention Jenny to you."

"It doesn't matter." Autumn smiled sardonically to herself, but she still acted as if nothing had happened. "I will never care about it." Autumn added.

Linda was insatiable since Autumn did answer back, so she started talking about things that always revolved around Jenny. "Autumn, In fact, I never expected that Jenny would detest you like that. Before you came here, Jenny had lost her heart to Mr. Lu. Perhaps she is just afraid that you will take her beloved, so she treated you like that."

"Really?" Autumn replied indifferently and continued, "But it is all over now. "

"I just feel pity for her." Obviously, Linda was not going to spare her so easily, so she went on. "Though Jenny is a disagreeable bad-tempered woman, she is competent. Mr. Lu always gives her important tasks. She would do a good job on time, so Mr. Lu was always freed from worry."

Saying this, Linda sighed and continued, "But now she has left and all of the work is going to be handed over to us. It means the workload will be burden-some."

Autumn was in a bad mood because of Yvonne, so she was even more distracted when she heard Linda complaining about work. "I will take charge of Jenny's work and I will do mine too. So you don't have to worry about that." Autumn was annoyed now.

"I didn't mean that." With a passive smile, Linda looked at Autumn and explained, "We are workmates, so it is natural that we should cooperate at work. I just feel weird that why Mr. Lu would fire her so easily. He even took the slap from Jenny for you. Ye, what is your relationship with Mr. Lu?"

"Obviously, it is a superior-subordinate relationship." Autumn replied to her impatiently. Linda's real purpose was to find out her relationship with Charles.

"Is there nothing else apart from a professional relationship?" It seemed that Linda was determined to make a detailed inquiry about that. "Everyone in the company knows that the woman who came to you today is Mrs. Lu's sister, and you know her well. So I am afraid that it is not just professional between you and Mr. Lu."

"What do you want to know from me?" Autumn asked her directly.

"Nothing." Linda went on with a smile, "Don't be so disgruntled. I just take you as my friend since you are my workmate now. So it is just girl's talk. Don't be so serious."

"I am your friend?"

Autumn stared at Linda and smiled grimly. "Linda, you were being sarcastic to me with Jenny before Mr. Lu showed up. But you came to make it up with me because Jenny got fired. I know you think that I must have an ambiguous relationship with Mr. Lu."
