The Apple of My Eye

Chapter 78 She Had Him Spellbound

Although Autumn was Charles's wife now, it was against her will when she got married to him. He

would not force her to do anything unless she was willing to.

Charles would always seek Autumn's consent.

Charles had to soak himself in the cold bath for half an hour before he finally cooled down. He covered Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

himself in a bath towel and stepped out.

Autumn was so nervous at the moment. Her face reddened all over again as she saw Charles coming

out with only a bath towel.

Autumn couldn't help but swallow in surprise. What she had seen in the bathroom left her so shamed.

"Are you going to take a bath?" Charles's voice was low and attractive. "Yes, I'm taking a bath now!"

Autumn immediately ran and locked herself in the bathroom as if she was being chased by some bad

guy.

Charles looked at Autumn's figure and sighed. He knew he had startled Autumn just now.

Autumn was in the bathroom for more than an hour. She had a quick bath. However, the very thought

of previous sight gave her goosebumps. She stayed at the bathroom, staring at the walls blankly. She

planned to go out only after Charles was asleep.

Charles and Autumn shared the same bed now, which made her feel uncomfortable.

Autumn cautiously listened to the sounds that came from outside of the bathroom. After sometime, it all

went quite. She silently pushed the bathroom door open and stepped out. However, Charles was not

asleep as expected. He was lying on the bed and looking at her.

Autumn felt like she was a prey being spotted by a dangerous predator.

She gave an awkward smile and stammered, "You... you are still awake."

"I'm waiting for you." Charles answered naturally. Hearing that, Autumn was lost in various possibilities,

'What is he going to do?'

"It's late. Let's go to sleep." While Charles was in hospital, David had been responsible for the company

affairs. David would send the documents that needed to be signed by Charles to the hospital. Charles

was now discharged and had taken a week off. He had to go to work the next day. "You need to get up

early tomorrow."

Autumn stated as she climbed into bed from the other side. She pretended to be calm, but there was a

huge distance between Charles and her.

Charles, of course, noticed Autumn's moves. He put down the magazine and asked, "Are you afraid of

me?"

"No... of course not." Autumn was so nervous that she couldn't answer him without stuttering. "It's

getting late. Let's go to sleep."

Autumn slyly moved farther away from Charles. She thought that he didn't notice that, but he pulled her

back into his arms.

"You are afraid of me. Right?" Autumn could now feel Charles's breathing. She was too nervous to

move.

"No... I'm not." Charles was amused by Autumn's stubborn attitude. Although she said that she was not

afraid of him, her whole body went stiff, and she even held her breath.

Autumn dared not breathe heavily. She could feel Charles's warm body. She had made up her mind

that if he did something, she would immediately run away.

But Charles didn't go any further. He just kept holding her in his arms. She could hear his strong

heartbeats and regular breathing.

"Charles, you..." Autumn looked up at Charles in the eye. There was a deep desire. She could feel the

fire that could even burn her.

"Don't move!" Charles demanded with a frown. He had tried his best to restrain his desire, but the lady

in his arm didn't seem to realize it.

"What's wrong?" Seeing Charles's frown, Autumn's heart sank. She raised herself on one elbow, and

touched his wound with the other hand. "Did I hurt you? Are you okay?"

Autumn became worried about Charles. She thought that she had carelessly bumped herself onto his

wound and aggravated it.

Autumn's mouth was opening and shutting. Looking at those attractive red lips, Charles had no idea of

what she was saying. He only wanted to gag her with his own lips.

Without hesitation, Charles leaned forward.

"Say something. Don't scare me." Autumn spoke to Charles anxiously. The next second, Charles put

his hand behind the back of her head and pressed his lips onto hers.

"Hmm..." Autumn was frightened. She widened her eyes and stared at Charles.

Autumn had a pair of soft lips. The moment Charles kissed her, she was frozen into Charles's arms.

Feeling her soft body, his eyes went wild. He opened Autumn's mouth with his flexible tongue and

twisted with hers.

Autumn's mind was blank. She didn't know how to respond.

Charles looked at Autumn and demanded, "Close your eyes."

Hearing that, Autumn closed her eyes and couldn't help but get close to Charles. He kissed her softly

and sucked her tongue greedily.

Autumn wore a pair of old-fashioned pajamas. Somehow, Charles had already unbuttoned her clothes.

Her body was exposed in the air. Feeling the chilly sensation on her chest, Autumn immediately

recovered herself. She pushed Charles away with a frown. She was going red in the face and breathing

very heavily. Her eyes went crystal bright, like a spring.

She put her hands against Charles's chest. Her eyes struggled. He heard her low voice, "Charles,

no..."
