His Real Wedded Bride

Chapter 294 The End of the Collaboration

"Come on, let's just leave. There's no point in arguing with such an unreasonable woman."

Autumn decided it wasn't worth continuing a conversation with Paula seeing as she hasn't done

anything but put all the blame on her.

"Stop! You have to settle this matter right now or else you'll regret it, "

Paula said, standing in front of them in an attempt to exert menace and might upon them.

"You don't really want to let us go, do you? Tell me. How far do you want this to go?" Autumn asked,

growing impatient by the minute.

"How dare you evolve such an evil scheme to me?" Paula spoke harshly. Paula, overwhelmed by a

sense of distress, became fully unaware of her due punishment.

"You're the one who stole my proposal and yet you're the one who has the gall to demand an

explanation now? Don't you think that's ridiculous?" Autumn scoffed, unable to hide her sarcasm.

She couldn't accept the fact that Paula continued to act so arrogantly and willfully to bring many a good

problem upon her.

"Have you planned this with Andy in a conniving manner?

Have you guys grown tired of being in such a relationship made unknown to others?"

Appalled by Autumn's question, Paula replied with a sneer.

"Did Charles left you so sexually unsatisfied that you decided to just be a dirty slut?"

Unable to contain her rage, Autumn's hand shot out, before Paula could even see it, slapping across

her face.

"I won't think twice in doing that again if you dare smear my name."

Autumn believed it was just reasonable to express her indignation.

"Why? Are you angry at me for saying the truth?" Paula said, trying to appear unfazed as she felt her

face.

"You think I don't know? I've heard the conversation between you and Hoada Masahiro at the restroom.

You just won the Japanese case by deceit." Paula's face turned pale, shocked by Autumn's revelation.

"You…You were there the other day…"

She stammered, unable to find words.

"Go on, then. If you keep on spreading lies about me, I will make sure that I'm going to reveal your

prized secret to everyone you know, " Autumn said, her words heavily laden with a threat.

This scared Paula into keeping silent.

"You know what? Since I'm such a good person, I might as well try to come up with a solution for you, "

she said, sarcasm apparent in her tone. "I was reviewing the proposal in your hands when Leila came

to steal upon your order yesterday. Unfortunately, she stole the outdated one. Now you know who to

blame, " she told her with a smirk.

"I'll make sure that I'm going to publicize what you have done if I see you ever again, " Autumn said just NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

as she was about to leave with Isla, threatening her on purpose.

"You…"

Paula stared at Autumn worriedly as she left, feeling extremely hopeless to receive such a threat.

She had no idea how to fix her problem.

She was so overcome with the loss of her job and the risk of compensation liability. With Autumn's

threat adding to the mix, she couldn't help but feel utterly defeated.

After walking out of the entrance of Giant Promise Company, Paula received the call from Leila. "How

is our plan going? I expect our plan's success!"

Still left in the dark, Leila grinned at the other end of the line, expecting Autumn's distress.

"Success?" Paula scoffed, clearly annoyed.

If Leila didn't steal the wrong proposal, she wouldn't end up losing the game.

"Well done! As I've told you, it was such a brilliant plan, " Leila said, unable to contain her excitement.

Feeling extremely agitated, Paula screamed at Leila for being such a fool.

"Can you not sense my anger? Our plan failed because you gave me an outdated proposal!"

"What?!"

Leila asked, clearly in disbelief with what she just heard. She had long anticipated Autumn's defeat that

she couldn't even stomach the fact that their plan was totally unsuccessful. "How could that happen?

The evidence is so clear…"

"Never mind. Our plan was spoiled beyond redemption, " Paula said, cutting her off.

"With that said, it's time to put an end to our collaboration."

Paula had ended the call before Leila could even respond, leaving her paralyzed in shock.

She couldn't even understand how she could have stolen the wrong proposal.

She made sure to copy the file straight from Autumn's computer. Is it even possible that Autumn knew

their ploy beforehand?

The thought made her feel nauseous.

Clutching her hands, Leila became determined to get even with Autumn, unable to accept what just

happened.

Autumn felt sick after leaving Giant Promise Company. She sneezed heavily, cold sweat running on her

back.

"Hey, are you okay?" Isla said, expressing her concern.

"Did you catch a cold?"

"I'm fine, "

Autumn replied as she massaged her nose, feeling somewhat uneasy.

"Were you really able to record their conversation?"

Isla asked out of confusion.

"No. Not really, " Autumn said, shaking her head gently.

"I was too nervous to take a deep breath, much less record. I said that so we could trick her into

believing that we have the upper hand."

"Woah, that's some kind of trick you got right there, " Isla said in awe. "Imagine if Leila had been wise

enough to copy the updated proposal, we would have ended up in so much distress."

"I know, right? We would have really been in big trouble!"

Autumn was in disbelief, still overcome with lingering fear and shock. Had Leila met her end along with

such deceitful people in the middle of their business circle, her plan would've really failed even with

Andy's help.

She was certain Paula would make the event known to everyone, giving rise to a dire consequence,

indeed.

It just so happened that luck was on her side that time. And she was more than thankful.

"This calls for a celebration. How about we go to dinner?" Autumn offered, overjoyed with their

success.

Autumn was excited at her victory and about to begin a celebration, but Isla seemed unwilling to do so,

"Autumn, I am afraid not...."

"But why? Do you have something to attend to?" Autumn asked out of curiosity.

"Yes…" Isla said, nodding her head in response. "Aron will be discharged from the hospital today so I

have to be there."

"Is that it? Hmm. It seems like you really care about Aron more than me, " Autumn teased.

"Be quick. I guess we'll just have dinner afterward. Now I need go back to my company, " she further

added. The truth was she was really glad to see Isla reunited with Aron.
