  The waiters rushed to meet Perry, judging by the fact that he was a well-known customer and one of their richest customers.

  Also, they respected him so much due to his popularity.

  "That's my secretary, I think she's having a panic attack," he said to them, a look of worry on his face.

  He didn't have much experience in that aspect, as he has never seen a friend or anyone close to him have a panic attack. The waiters joined him to hold Autumn, who was still struggling to breathe, he tried to calm her down, and the waiters that came to attend to them gave her a cup of water.

  "Let her have this, make sure she does, she'll be calm in no time," one of the female waiters said and handed a cup of water to Perry.

  He collected it and muttered a brief thank you to her, then he held Autumn by the arm and whispered to her gently.

  "Have this, you'll be fine."

  She gently opened her mouth and he helped her pour it into her mouth. He also urged her to take deep breaths so she could feel

      Autumn couldn't believe her ears when she heard what Perry said. How could he tell her to tell her parents the truth? If her mother knows, she would never let her go on with the deal.  "Do you even realize what you just said?" She asked disapprovingly.  "What? You said she would figure out that you're lying to her, and then I told you to tell her the truth. So?" He asked her nonchalantly.  Autumn was stunned, she folded her hand into a fist as she glared at him. If she could give him a blow in the head, she would have loved to.  "What are you saying? You know quite well that we agreed not to let the public know about us! We promised not to tell anyone, have you forgotten so quickly?"  His face drew into a frown as he stared at her as if she was speaking gibberish.?  "The public? Aren't they just your family? Are they the public?" He questioned her and she shook her head. "So, what's the fuss about?"  Autumn let out a sigh of worry. Perry didn't understand, and she had no idea

      A smirk appeared on Perry's face as he watched Autumn draw up a shocked expression.  He loved getting on people's nerves, and although he wasn't getting on her nerves right now, he loved the way she reacted.  "Wait, do you want to propose to me?!" She asked as the realization hit her. Then, she covered her mouth with her hands almost after she let out those words.  She looked around the restaurant if anyone heard what she said, but she was glad everyone went about their normal activities.  She heaved a sigh of relief and removed her hands from her mouth. She then turned to face Perry, who still had a large grin on his face.  "Hey!" She glared at him. "Why were you looking at my ring, uhn?!" She snapped at him.  "Why do you ladies act like you don't know what's happening?" He asked her and she looked at him confusedly, as she was genuinely unsure of what he was saying.?  "One minute you are smart, and the other minute, your brain dries out. Does it come and go in waves?"  She

      For the rest of the day in the office, everything on Autumn's mind was how she was going to drop the bombshell on her mum.  She knew she wouldn't take it lightly with her, but at this point, she had no choice but to do it.  When she couldn't take it any longer, she came up with a plan, she went ahead to take a break from Perry.  She asked to take the day off to speak to her mum, and he freed her for the day. She left for home not quite long after.  On getting home, she met only her sister, who was surprised as to why she came home early. Her mum, however, wasn't back from work.  She changed to her casual wear and headed to the kitchen to make dinner. While she was doing so, her mum returned from work.  Elise told their mum that Autumn was in the kitchen. When their mum had finished freshening up, she offered to join Autumn in the kitchen, but she refused, saying she wanted tonight's meal to be her treat.  This came as a surprise to both Elise and her mum, but she didn't elonga

      The stares that Becky and Elise gave Autumn made her feel uncomfortable. She cleared her throat and adjusted herself on her seat.  Her eyes looked everywhere in the sitting room except her mum's face. She couldn't bear to look at her face at that moment as she wasn't sure what her reply would be.  "Seems I didn't hear you right, sis. You're moving out?" Elise asked her again, trying to make sure she heard Autumn correctly. Autumn nodded her head slowly.  "I knew it!" Elise exclaimed. "I just knew something was about to happen!"  Elise stood up in front of her mum, arms akimbo, and said to her.  "Didn't I tell you? I told you that Autumn couldn't just decide to be nice to us unless she had something up her sleeves! I told you, didn't I?"  Becky rolled her eyes and replied to Elise with a serious expression on her face. "Leave my front, Elise. You're obstructing my view."  Elise scoffed and walked back to her seat, while Becky continued watching the TV.?  Seeing that her mum di

      "Come again?" Becky said to Autumn and she moved back a bit before repeating what she said earlier.  "I'm going to live with him for a while."  Becky was taken aback. Not knowing what to say next, she walked out on Autumn and went to her room, slamming the door shut behind her. Autumn remained fixed to a spot as she stared at her mum's room door from where she stood.  "I can't leave the situation like this,"?she muttered to herself. She rubbed her hands together as anxiety filled her up.  Seeing that her mum had left and she could tease her sister now, Elise walked up to her sister.?  "Hey, sis," she said and tapped her shoulder. Autumn turned to look at her. She changed her mind when she saw the expression on Autumn's face. She could see how scared she was and worried about how everything would turn out.  "Yeah?" Autumn replied to her. "If you're about to make jokes, now is not the right time."  "Let's assume you were scared of mum and what she would say, but what about me? W

      The next day arrived and Elise seemed even more excited about Perry's visit than Autumn. She cleaned the house and made sure everything was in place.  When Becky asked her what made her act so neat, she replied that they were expecting a very important visitor, so she had to be neat.  Becky simply scoffed, since she wasn't very happy about Autumn's union with Perry.  "I can't wait to tell my friends in school that you're married to the famous Perry. It all just seems like a dream!" Elise said to Autumn as they sat together in the sitting room watching TV.  Autumn's head shot in her direction immediately. "You can't tell anyone about it, Elise. We both signed an NDA."  A frown crept on Elise's face slowly and she groaned. "That's not fair!" She whined. "Why can't I brag that I'm an in-law to someone influential, uh? I don't understand why it has to be kept a secret."  "You'll understand soon," she simply replied.  Almost an hour later, a knock was heard on the front door. Elise

      "I love Autumn," Perry said, maintaining eye contact with Autumn, who looked extremely shocked at his response.  She knew he was only trying to convince her mum, but she never expected him to say that.  He then turned back to face Becky, "I genuinely love her," he added.  Everywhere went silent again. Becky looked from Perry to Autumn, who was still staring at Perry in awe, and back to Perry. Elise on the other hand covered her mouth with her hands.  She couldn't believe that the famous handsome billionaire had just told her sister that he loves her.  "I don't trust famous men like you. You tend to lie a lot to have your way. I don't know what it is you want from her, but I still think you aren't being sincere with her." Becky responded. "And it would break me a lot of my daughter returned here crying or heartbroken over you."  "Mum, he's—"  "She's talking to me, Autumn," he shot in her direction and said to her. "I can handle this by myself," he added, and Autumn simply nodde

      As Perry placed both of his hands on her thighs, Autumn couldn't help the tingles she felt within her.   Despite liking how it made her feel, for some reason unknown to her, she knew whatever he wanted to do wasn't right and shouldn't be done where they were.  "What the hell are you trying to do?"  Perry simply shrugged. He had no idea what he was doing, but his subconscious mind just made him want to touch her.   It seemed like for the first time since he's been working with her, he only just discovered her pretty eyes.   Something in him wanted to go on as if to uncover more things, and he was glad she wasn't stopping him from doing it.  However, their moment didn't last long as Elise barged in since the doors were open wide. She halted by the door as she saw the scene before her, and she was amused by it.   She wanted to take a picture of them so that she'll blackmail her sister with it in the future when she needs her help, unfortunately for her, Autumn was quick to see he

      "Do you not know that she's pregnant already?"  Max chuckled. "I know quite well, and that's why I'm telling you this because her baby is mine and not yours."  Perry paused for a minute and stared at him like he didn't just hear what he said. He scoffed, wondering if he was aware of what he was talking about. "Can you even hear yourself?"  Max smiled. "I know you'd never believe me just by my words, so I made sure to gather my evidence to show you."  "What the heck?" Perry stared at him unbelievably, as he felt his heart beating heavily. "Even if what you're saying is true, why are you telling me now?"  Max let out a sigh. "You might call it selfishness, but my heart hasn't healed from the hurt she put me through. I know your engagement with her is very close, and I don't want to see her happy after everything she did to me."  "And what did she do to you exactly?" Perry asked as he sat up in his seat curiously  "What could she have done that made you despise her so much to com

      "Autumn is my ex-wife!"  "Excuse me?" Gloria responded. She heard him well, but she wanted to believe she didn't. "Autumn is your ex-wife? You married your secretary?" She scoffed.  "Am I good to go now that I've told you?"  "What the… you're serious?" Her eyes opened wide in shock. "Was she also the one at the party the other night?"  "Yes," he simply replied.  Only then did the realization hit her. She knew she had heard that voice before, but she didn't know where it was  She had wondered why his secretary was rude to her the very first time they set eyes on each other, but now she could tell why she had behaved like that to her.  "You dated that thing?" She asked, her face filled with irritation.  "Watch your words, Gloria. I'm not in the best mood at the moment, and you know that" he responded.  "Do you even know how I feel about that at the moment?!" He raised his voice at him. "You claimed to divorce her and now you're coming to pay her bills?"  "Please—"  "Oh, spar

      "Where are you headed?" Perry asked his parents as he looked from Lucy to his dad and back at Lucy  "Gloria and I are here to have a surprise dinner with you," he added, and Gloria simply smiled at them.  Lucy rolled her eyes at him. "That's none of your business. We have somewhere urgent to go," she said and walked past him, but Perry was quick to drag his mum back by the hand. "Perry!" She snapped at him and yanked his hand off her arm.  "Can someone at least tell me what's happening?!" He asked at the top of his voice, while Gloria stood there staring at them.  Mr. Moore checked the time on his wristwatch, and seeing that arguing with Perry would only make them late, he decided to tell him what happened  "Autumn's mother needs to go through an operation and the fee is a little high for her." Perry's eyes went wide open in shock.  "Her sister called us for help, and that's where we're going. Is that okay now?" He then turned to Gloria  "My dear, we won't be available tonight

      Autumn rubbed her hands together anxiously as she awaited the response of the doctor. He cleared his table and sat on his office chair, while she sat opposite him.  "What's going on with her?" She asked him with a look of fear on her face.  The doctor looked at her, then at the paper in his hand, then back at her. He then started to explain his diagnosis.  "She happened to have arrhythmias, heart valve problems, and high blood pressure in her lung arteries, which led to a heart failure that made her collapse."  "Oh my God," Autumn gasped, as she covered her mouth with her hands. Her eyes were teary by now as she stared at the doctor. "Isn't there anything that could be done about it?" She added after a couple of seconds.  "Will she survive it? What do I have to do to make her feel better? Will she get better? She won't die now, will she? Please, be honest with me," she begged with teary eyes as her heart began to beat heavily.  She had arguments with her mother a lot, but she w

      Autumn arrived at Biarritz Tech Company and rushed over to the receptionist's table.  The young lady looked at her with an emotionless face, expecting her to say something since she had no idea who she was or whom she was there to see.  "Good afternoon," Autumn said and stood in front of the receptionist. "I was called a couple of minutes back to come over to this company right away."  "Name?"  "Autumn."  "Autumn?" The receptionist raised her head to look at Autumn again, giving her a disapproving stare. "Do you not have a last name?"  "It's Dax. Autumn Dax."  Confirming that 'Autumn Dax' was on the list of new employees, she gave Autumn a brisk nod. "Go to the office on the last end of the next floor."  "Thank you," Autumn replied with false pleasantness and skipped towards the elevator.  On getting to the next floor's waiting hall, a young lady stepped out of the office directly opposite her and called out, "Autumn Dax."  "Here!" She replied and launched to her feet. The

      A couple of weeks later, Lisa and Olive took a day off from work to see Autumn. When they noticed that she hadn't been coming, they reached out to her.  They were shocked to hear that she had resigned from work. Seeing that there was no other way to see her, they picked a date and decided to meet up at a nearby restaurant.  Autumn arrived there first and ordered a drink while she awaited the arrival of her friends.  The television was on, and it was set to a news channel. She was lost in thought about her search for a new job when someone mentioned Perry's name, which jerked her back to reality.  "Isn't that the billionaire CEO of Trek Tech?" A lady squealed from her seat as she pointed at the tv.  "Omg! It's him! He's getting engaged again!" Another one exclaimed and murmurs aroused in the room.  Autumn managed to listen to the news amidst the murmurs, to know what exactly was happening.  "...and had divorced his ex-wife, whom he didn't mention her name to cover her identity.

      Perry looked at his mum, who was stunned at how he shouted at her. "I'm sorry for raising my voice at you, mum. But I just want you to understand that nobody else has a say in my marriage affairs."  "Your father and I have come to see Autumn as our daughter, and we knew how happy you were and how positively you changed in a couple of things," Lucy replied with a serious but concerned look on her face. "So I don't understand why you should divorce her over—"  "The whole thing was fake!" Perry blurted out, while his parents just stared at him like they had no idea what he was saying.  "Everything was fake from the start, mum. We signed a deal with each other when dad wanted me to get married at all costs."  "Perry Moore!" His father growled as he shot a deadly glare at Perry. "You both deceived us all along?!"  "I've said all I can. I'm off to work," Perry said and walked towards the exit.  "Perry!" His father called, but he didn't turn back.

      Becky walked to sit beside Autumn on her bed. She looked tattered and rough, and Becky's heart sank to see her daughter that way. That was the first time she had ever seen her so bedridden over a guy.  "Do you want to talk about it now?" Becky asked her calmly.  Autumn reached for the cupboard next to her bed and picked up some papers on it, then gave her. Becky collected them wondering what it was about.  She went through it and was shocked to see that they were divorce papers. She was even more shocked to see that Autumn had signed her part.  "You signed these?" Her eyes were wide open in shock as she stared at her daughter like she knew not what she was doing.  "I've made up my mind, mum. He sent these papers because he has moved on. I'm ready to do that too," she got up from her bed.  "I'm going to drop the papers at the mailbox, so they can be delivered back to him."  "Are you sure about this?
