Chapter 145 Face to Face

Despite being very angry, Yvonne feigned weakness as she looked fearfully at Autumn.

It took Autumn some time before deciding to say yes.

She couldn't just ignore something that concerned her grandmother.

Autumn followed Yvonne as she walked to a corner. "Just tell me what happened to Grandma!" Autumn faced her, demanding an answer.

Yvonne suddenly turned around, slapping her sister in the face.

It happened so fast that Autumn wasn't able to dodge it.

"Autumn, how many times do I need to tell you that you're just my substitute?! You better put yourself in your rightful place. Do you really think that Charles is interested in you?

Charles only loves me. And the Cloud Advertising Company is mine. Do you understand?"

Yvonne felt that this wasn't fair. Autumn had always been second best even since they were children. Besides, she was the one who abandoned Charles, not the other way around. She couldn't just sit and let it pass now that he seemed to treat Autumn well and Autumn seemed to love it.

She was determined to get Charles back.

"Is that all you want to say?" Autumn said, touching her aching cheek as she looked at Yvonne.

"What else do you think we should talk about?" she replied with a sneer, making her sarcasm more evident.

"If it weren't for Charles, I wouldn't even want to see you at all."

Yvonne paused as she made herself clear with her following statement.

"Remember this. From now on, you should not take whatever it is that he tries to give you. You should also tell him that you're not fit to be the general manager and recommend me as your replacement. Got it?"

Autumn sneered back in response. "Is there anything else?

Allow me to make myself clear. I only married Charles at first to solve your problems. But now that I am his wife, I have the right to take anything that he gives me, not just the Cloud Advertising Company, but the Shining Company as well. As for giving you the Cloud Advertising Company, don't even dream about it."

Yvonne turned pale upon hearing this and said, "How dare you… You do

d why would you want to force me to go on that blind date? Do you know what sort of man Auntie recommended?

He is a bad and ugly coward! Do you really want me to marry a person like that?"

Her mother tried to calm herself down.

"Look. I'm your mother, and I know how hurt you were about what happened…

But as time goes by, you need to let go of your past and start thinking about your future. You don't want to be single forever, do you?"

"Mom, I'm an adult now. I've got my own way of living my life. I will certainly get married when I meet the right one, but for now, can you please stop interfering with my life?"

Isla replied, ending the call abruptly.

She looked up and found Autumn staring at her. She tried to calm down as she tried to find the right words to say.

Autumn stopped her from saying anything more, knowing exactly what she wanted to say before even saying anything.

Isla had already revealed a lot earlier and anyone listening in would be able to figure out what happened immediately.

Isla was happy that Autumn was able to fully understand. Aron's coming back felt like a sudden clap of thunder. Her life had been peaceful for four years that she had almost succeeded in forgetting about him. But now that he was back, she had no choice but to face the truth.

She sighed as she started telling Autumn about her relationship with Aron.
