Chapter 225 Birthday Party

The fact that Charles got married was fairly known to one and all present there. However, right until this moment the public did not realize that the woman Charles married was Autumn Ye instead of Yvonne Gu.

"I am fully aware of the cloud of confusion that descended upon all of you present here. But it is with great happiness that I now unravel the mystery: Autumn and I got married out of sheer luck and destiny. Now we spend each and every day of our lives together in conjugal bliss. This is my official statement to confirm the true identity of my beloved wife. I appreciate you all for your kindly understanding." Charles then egged Chris to take over, "Now I urge today's hostess to divide up the delicious cake for us. I do hope you enjoy the party here!"

Charles's brief statement was, indeed, a pleasant shock to all the guests. It was only second before the audience started to whisper among one other in shock and awe.

Isla was happy on seeing Autumn's face light up as her innermost desires had turned into reality.

Aron's voice rang behind Isla, "So are you getting excited too on the prospects of receiving such happiness?"

"Why are you pestering me?" Isla answered to Aron without turning back to look at him.

"I have called off the wedding with Becky and ended all ties with her." Aron pleaded for her attention with hopeful eyes, "Now can you please hear me out?"

Isla turned around swiftly without reflecting a single emotion on her face and plastered a smile as she said to him, "Aron you are still ignorant of your mistake of shifting the blame onto others. This trait was the root cause of our failed relationship. While Becky did play a major role, you too were an accomplice in this plot."

Isla continued with a gentle smile, "There is absolutely no point in continuing this conversation if you still abandon your due responsibility. Either way please excuse me as I have to attend to some work now."

Isla turned around and made her way to Autumn. As she gave her a gift as a token of best wishes, and said goodbye to her, "Autumn, there is

u possibly mean by that?" Autumn was now turning red with anger as she reminded herself to remain kind towards Leila. Moreover, her act of keeping her marriage with Charles to herself was justifiable.

"The least you deserve is to listen to my complaint!" Leila replied with a cold smile, "The fact that you are Charles's wife should not have been hidden from me. Moreover, I feel like I am constantly being lied to around here without knowing it, as I have long been expecting a truth from you. After all of this, do you really want to treat me like a blithering idiot?"

Autumn frowned at Leila's complaint, as she thought she was being wronged by Leila. Actually, her marriage with Charles, from the beginning, was inappropriate to be declared in public. However, even though later their relationship got better, Autumn thought it was rather unnecessary to tell anyone unconcerned. Moreover, Leila was no more than a colleague who should be denied a slice of her private life.

"Leila, is there some misunderstanding between us?'

"Misunderstanding? How could there be?" Leila revealed a sly smile, "Autumn, I am surprised to see you play out this superb trick. Earlier I felt obliged and grateful to you for my admission into Shining Company. But until now I did not realize that all you wanted was to have a good laugh at me. You must try to contain your laughter at my folly."
