Zoe watched the two of them–like strangers under the same roof–and felt a wave of helpless anxiety. Back when
Chapter 42 Chapter 42 Autumn had really been stirring things up lately. First she followed him around, then pretended to be sick, and finally showed up uninvited at the seminar. It was exhausting. Since her heart clearly wasn’t in the job anymore and she’d now caused the company such a
Chapter 41 Chapter 41 Autumn curled her lips into a mocking smile. “So, Luna got rejected by Mr. Shaw, and you all had the nerve to blame it on me? “Let’s be honest–you lot get to do whatever you want, but the moment someone else pushes back, it’s a problem?
Chapter 40 When they returned to the private room, the gathering soon wrapped up. As everyone began to leave, Ethan offered to drive Autumn home. Keith picked up the coat draped over the chair and said to him, “I’ll take her p> “Then I’ll leave her in your care, Senior

Chapter 38 Autumn looked at Luma coldly. “Don’t call me ‘sis.‘ My mother could never give birth to someone like you–a mistress who throws herself at someone else’s husband p> Because of what her mother went through, she had hated mistresses since childhood, and yet her own marriage ended up

Chapter 36 Chapter 36 Time flew by, and soon, the twenty–second arrived. During that time, Julian hadn’t come home once. Autumn had grown used to it. After today, only eight days remained–none of it mattered anymore. She had nearly finished handing over her work, just waiting for the time to
Chapter 35 Chapter 35 Her warm breath spilled across his neck, and her fingers traced slow, teasing circles on his chest, sending tingles straight through his nerves.

Chapter 30 Chapter 30 Hector huffed in frustration. “It’s all Autumn’s fault. It’s her birthday today, and when she saw none of us were home, she took it out on Luna p> Autumn was speechless. What exactly had she said or done? How was she taking anything out on Luna?
