The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 418

"You..." Autumn was amazed and also happy somehow with his decision of firing Leila. There were many deals for him to manage, and Autumn thought he was a little too impulsive to make such an arbitrary decision.

"Don't you think you are being too impulsive to make such a decision?" Autumn frowned and balmed him instantly.

"Not at all. I am sure everything will be fine." Charles answered in a delicate tone. "Now our baby and you are the most important things for me and I'm willing to do everything required for your welfare and happiness."

"But..." Autumn was still worried.

"Don't think too much. It will all be okay." Charles stroked Autumn hands and said, "From now on, no matter what Leila says or does to you, please don't believe her. You can't be provoked to get angry or emotional for your and baby's health. Do you understand?"

Charles added, "I can't always ensure that Leila won't cause trouble for you any more but you can just remember that no matter what happens, you can control yourself and trust me. Okay?"

"Okay." Autumn nodded her head and said, "I will remember that."

After consuming her meal and having this warm chat, she was so tired and she fell asleep on the bed almost immediately. Nancy was sitting in the sofa staring blankly when Charles went downstairs. He wanted to ask Nancy whether she had something to do with Autumn's disease or not, but...

He decided to give her a chance to confess her guilty to him by herself.

"Is Autumn all right?" Chris asked him while she was also heading down.

"She just ate the meal and fell asleep. Where are you going?" Charles asked Chris out of curiosity.

"My dad just came back and I'm going to visit him. Charles, Autumn's condition is not so good, so please spend more time to give her company." Chris was concerned about Autumn so she gave Charles a suggestion.

"I know." Charles nodded his head slightly and said, "She almost lost control today and after that I am not going to take any more chances."

He said this on purpose so that Nancy could hear it. Then he saw Nancy suddenly sit right up straight and get restless.

"What happened?" Chris asked. Charles told everything to Chris. She was shocked and then blamed Charles, "You were too careless. I felt that Leila had some bad intentions the very first time I saw her. But you let her be your secretary for such a long time. Luckily Autumn wasn't hurt by her this time, otherwise you would be left with regret forever."

"I have fired her so you can stop blaming me now. The situation is under control." Charles sighed. "All I want to do now is to find out who put the poison into Autumn's food or drink so that I can prevent him or her from committing more stupid mistakes which have affected her life."

Nancy's body got stiff. At the moment she heard Charles' words, she really wanted to tell Charles that she did that.

But she could not muster the courage to do so as she recalled that her son was still in that man's hand.

After Chris left, Charles gave a glimpse at Nancy, then he let out a sigh of disappointment.

He was really disappointed with Nancy. If she didn't confess her guilty as soon as possible, he wouldn't give her another chance.
