The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 496

"What are you talking about? Are you serious?" When Anthony heard that Autumn's baby was taken away by Leila, he was in great shock. Worried, he immediately asked Autumn,"Why are you so calm? Why didn't you tell me about this earlier?"

It was Autumn's baby, her own flesh and blood. How could she be so composed?

Autumn didn't answer his question but smirked. "Anthony, I am tired. I just want to take a break."

Autumn stayed in the bed, turned her back and stopped listening to him. Anthony furrowed his eyebrows, stared at her for a while and finally left in frustration.

After Anthony left, Autumn cried incessantly.

How could she not be upset about her baby being taken away from Leila?

Charles had a horrible dream that night in which Autumn smiled brightly at him. He reached out to hold her, but she just ran away with a soft smile. No matter how hard he tried, he was unable to catch her.

"Autumn, wait for me please," he pleaded. Autumn, however, just grinned and was reluctant to reach out to him. Though she was pregnant, Autumn was robust in Charles's dream which stunned him greatly.

He reached out to stop her but failed. "Autumn, you are pregnant. Stop jumping and running around. You have to take care of yourself."

Autumn wore a smiling face while she stood from a distance. Though she was quite close to him, Charles wasn't able to touch her.

Worried, Charles said in a soft tone,"Autumn, come here please. I promise to always keep you company and I will never leave you alone ever again. Please don't leave me. Give me one more chance. Let's fix this."

Autumn ignored his words and remained quiet. Slowly, she seemed drifting away which made Charles feel that he was going to lose her soon. He tried his best to reach out and embrace her, but Autumn soon disappeared from his sight.

It frightened him to wake up from this nightmare. The moment he opened his eyes, everything was a blur.

He found that he was on a drip, lying on a hospital bed. He tried to pull himself up. Charles pulled the needle off from his arm. He thought he couldn't be just lying there while Autumn was still missing.

"Charles, where are you going?" As soon as Chris came back from the nurse station, she saw Charles sitting on the bed and was about to get up. Chris rushed to him and said,"Charles, you are still weak. You have to take some rest. You can't go out yet."

Charles ignored her words since he was so absorbed in his own thoughs. He was determined to find Autumn back.

Charles clenched his hand into a fist, and his fingernails had burrowed in his palm, but he couldn't feel any pain.

"Charles, you can't go on like this. You have to accept that Autumn might not come back anymore," persuaded Chris. She felt sorry for her dear brother.

Fortunately, Sam got back in time and helped Chris convince Charles. "Charles, I got some clues about the accident. If you would relax for a bit, I will give you an update and hand all the materials to you."

After hearing the news, Charles decided to lie back.

'Autumn, wait for me. I will find you soon, ' Charles thought to himself.
