The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 53

She understood that Charles was behaving like this because he was a little jealous. She was not a sentimental woman. Though she was unable to shy away from things with Sam, she also didn't hope Charles would misunderstand her, so she wanted to explain it to him clearly before going home.

"What's wrong?" Charles stopped the car and looked at Autumn.

"Let's take a walk." Located in the heart of the city, the Central Park was a quiet and relaxing place in this bustling city.

In the early summer days, the city was like a blooming flower. It was gorgeous and colorful. The lovers used to come here to take a walk at the lakeside.

Autumn took the initiative to hold Charles's hands quietly. The evening breeze gently touched their faces, giving them a warm feeling.

Autumn stared at the lovers at the lakeside and wondered how to explain things to Charles.

"You......"

"You......" Coincidently, they spoke in unison. Then they took a glance at each other and smiled fondly.

"What do you want to talk about?" Autumn said with a smile to Charles while he hesitated for a while and then said, "Can you keep at a distance from Sam?"

"Why?" Autumn asked. Perceiving his serious expression, Autumn decided to joke a bit with him. "Sam grew up with me. I know him since my childhood days. He always took great care of me. Moreover, he is Chris's boss, so how can we not meet?" Autumn replied.

"I didn't say that you cannot meet him." Charles furrowed his brow and added, "I only mean that you can avoid unnecessary meetings. I will ask Chris to work at my company when we go home today. I am not going to allow Chris to work at Sam's company. "

"Did Sam offend you before?" Autumn glanced at Charles curiously, and found that he looked a little awkward. "Why do you hate him so much? "

"Anyway, I won't permit you to meet him again." Charles said peremptorily.

Autumn was amused by his words. "Are you jealous? "

It was impossible to see any other expression on Charles's face except for calmness. But now Autumn could easily tell that he was jealous. This startled her.

"Are you serious?" She kept joking with him.

"Uh......" Autumn felt flattered there. Unexpectedly, Charles seized her head and kissed her lips abruptly.

He was determined to give her a small "punishment" since she was so complacent.

"Are you crazy?" Autumn complained while blushing long after Charles released her.

Though it was a good place for lovers to date and it was natural for people to kiss here, Autumn still felt embarrassed kissing in public.

It turned out that she shouldn't play any trick on him.

"You are my wife. Why can't I kiss you? Charles was a bit complacent now while he looked at her flushed cheeks.

It took Autumn a long while to react. They sat on the bench by the lake together while Autumn asked Charles, "Don't you have any questions to ask?"

Charles shook his head slightly. "I trust you." He replied.

He looked at Autumn quietly and then added, "I would like to listen attentively to you if you are ready to talk to me. But if you are reluctant to tell me anything, I won't force you. After all, everyone has a past."
