The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 69

Hearing this, Linda was stunned, "What... what did you say?"

'He is a married man. How could he openly...' Linda wondered.

"What? Haven't I make myself clear?" Charles smiled coldly and continued, "I'll make it easier for you to understand. Open your ears. Ye is my woman. She is my legally wedded wife. Do you hear that?"

On hearing this, Linda fell to the ground. She supposed that Ye was probably an acquaintance of Charles. But it had never occurred to her that she was 'the' Mrs. Lu.

'We never saw him take any woman so seriously since Jenny and I followed Charles years ago. Even that super star Rachel never got this treatment.

It's my fault. I should have recognized their relationship.' Linda blamed herself.

"Mrs. Lu... How is it even possible..." She kept babbling to herself, "It's my bad luck... How could I have offended Charles's wife without even noticing it?"

Charles stood up and told Autumn, "Let's go." He grabbed her hand and decided to leave. Mr. Song, who was lying on the ground, got irritated by Charles's words. He snatched a bottle of wine on the table and dashed it to Charles and Autumn.

He had never been insulted like this before.

Things happened too fast. Sam nervously shouted, "Watch out!"

Charles didn't know what was happening behind him, but he held Autumn to his breast unconsciously.

Bang! Charles was hit by a wine bottle on his head. All of a sudden, the bottle broke down into pieces and fragments of glass spread around. The wine splashed on the ground. Charles's head turned red instantly.

"Stay still, " Sam warned Mr. Song. He immediately walked forward and stopped Mr. Song. He left Mr. Song to Peter, and then called the police. When he turned around, he saw Autumn holding Charles in her arms. She was freaking out.

Sam told Autumn, "Stop crying. Rush him to the hospital immediately." Charles was hit, but he still consoled Autumn with a smile on his face, "Stop being a fool. It's no big deal. I'm fine."

"But you're bleeding..." Autumn cried incessantly. She blamed herself, 'If it hadn't been for me, Charles wouldn't have been injured like that.

I always get people around me into trouble.'

"Don't talk rubbish. It's all my fault..." replied Charles. Autumn could not stop sobbing.

Charles reached his hand to touch her face and stop her from crying but he was now losing his consciousness. Before he touched her face, he blacked out with his hand falling straight to the ground.

Autumn wailed.

"Well, stop crying." Sam felt terrible when he watched his beloved woman holding another man in her arms and weeping in grief.

He looked in the rearview mirror and caught a glimpse of Autumn. Seeing her heartbroken expressions, he felt sadder than her.

He knew Autumn was anxious, he kept running red lights all the way. Soon, they arrived at the hospital.
