CHAPTER 91 Letting Go

  Perry returned home from work very late in the night, looking haggard and worried. He had waited and waited, expecting that Autumn would return to the office later, but she never did.

  When he got too concerned, he began to call her, but she ignored all his calls.

  He walked into the sitting room and met Autumn lying on one of the couches. He paused to look at her, and she also stared at him from where she was.

  "You're late," she simply said to him.

  He dropped his briefcase on a nearby chair and remained on the spot staring at her.

  "Where have you been? Why did you leave work without leaving a note or anything?"

  "I needed to clear my head after what you told me about Gloria," she muttered.

  "And that was what you couldn't pick up my calls to tell me?" He raised his voice at her a little.

  There was silence in the room for about a minute. When she didn't give him any reply, he picked up his briefcase and headed towards the stairs.
