The Gray Autumn's

Ombre Coquine

Benjamin sneered softly upon hearing Autumn's reply. As much as possible he did not show a strange attitude or anything like that, because Edgar seemed to pay attention to Autumn's behavior since then. Benjamin remained focused on the food on his plate.

"What's going on in Marseille? Not usually you want to go there," asked Edgar in an investigative tone. Autumn did not answer immediately. He glanced at Arumi. The woman smiled gently.

"You remember Joelene, honey?" ask Arumi to Edgar.

"Joe? Who?" Edgar knitted his brows because he could not remember the name Arumi had mentioned earlier. Either you don't remember, or you may not even know him at all.

"Joelene LaRue, Dad. He was my best friend at school" Autumn said, trying to remind Edgar.

"Dad won't remember, Elle. Unless you bring your old best friend directly here, that's also if the person really exists" said Darren who immediately made Autumn glare sharply at him.

"Shut your mouth!" sergeant Autumn. Not nothing, he was already irritated to the young man who was just giggling amusedly.

"Hey, keep your attitude in front of Mr. Royce!" arumi Lerai. "Don't make a fuss at the dinner table" he continued. While Benjamin just smiled, looking at the attitude of the sons and daughters of his colleague.

Regardless of Darren's ledge, Autumn explained about his intention of going to Marseille. He spoke so confidently that Edgar believed him. Benjamin repeatedly scrunched his forehead. He did not expect that Autumn was so good at theatrics. The girl looked so convincing, from her words to her body language.

"How long are you gonna be there, Elle?" arumi asked after Autumn finished talking to Edgar. Instead of answering, Autumn actually glanced at Benjamin. The man didn't tell him how long he'd be in Marseille. A moment later, Autumn turned her eyes to her mother.

"I think it might be about two or three days" Autumn replied hesitantly. "If I have time to visit the graves of grandparents, um .. I need a vacation" she said.

"Last time we went there you kept grumbling, Elle," Darren chanted. "You even came home with your frustration here. I don't know what or who has made you so," led the young man again with satisfaction. He laughed softly but seemed to enjoy the look of protest from Autumn. While Benjamin was just scratching his forehead. He knew very well the last incident before they returned to Paris.

"Shut your mouth, you idiot!" sentak Autumn's. He was increasingly annoyed at the babbling of the sister who felt increasingly annoying.

"Elle, Honey. Watch your attitude, son!" Arumi again broke both of his children who were quite mature, but still behaved like children. "You too, Darry. Stop bothering your sister!" arumi's reprimand against Darren who was just smiling responded to the reprimand from the mother.

"I'm sorry for their mess, Mr. Royce," Edgar said, shaking his head slowly. He is not inexhaustible with the attitude of his sons and daughters.

"You are very understanding, Mr. Royce. I'm guessing that's why you can be a great successful boss, because the understanding you have of something is so profound. Very much different from my sister's shallow understanding, "Autumn laughed crisply because she had managed to avenge all Darren's taunts on her.

Darren looks like he's going to avenge his brother. However, Arumi immediately prevented it. "That's enough! Do not let Mr. Royce know the childish attitude of the two of you any further. Let him enjoy his dinner in peace" said Arumi quite firmly. These words were for his two children. While Edgar just clucked in disbelief.

"You have started to know Mr. Royce well apparently," said Edgar who he addressed to Autumn.

"Ah, yes of course. Mr. Royce taught me many things. Everything I didn't know before. He explained in such detail and so much detail that I could understand everything he taught me so easily. I learned a lot from him, and it was really something amazing. It was a wonderful experience and I will never forget it. I think Mr. Royce is a very good and very experienced guide" Autumn said, propping her face up with her left hand, while her right hand was busy playing the spoon. He looked at Benjamin with his eyes filled with admiration. In the mind of the girl again imagined all the hot activities she had done with the man.

"It's good that you've learned a lot. I also felt so flattered that Mr. Royce was willing to teach you directly, Elle," Edgar responded to all of Autumn's utterances with a proud look as well as astonishment and disbelief.

While Benjamin just muttered softly. He did not know what to say but to smile and agree with Edgar's words. "I'm just giving you a little direction, Mr. Hillaire. Your daughter learns very quickly and is able to capture all the information well. Miss Hillaire is amazing" Benjamin flattered Autumn. His gaze is very charming, much more intoxicating than alcoholic beverages, so that makes Autumn more drunk kepayang made.

The brunette girl smiled sweetly. All his mischievous daydreams with Benjamin kept turning, looking so vividly as when he was watching television. Autumn continued to be swept away in admiration which made her seem to be going crazy. He had never felt anything like that towards any man.

"So how, Dad?" autumn asked after a while he enjoyed his nightmarish hallucination. The girl really wished for Edgar to say 'Yes'.

"alright. Two days is enough for you to be there. Not more!" edgar was firm. He hinted that Autumn would not protest much and discuss it again. Inevitably, the gray-eyed girl was forced to agree to the father's decision. Two days was more than enough, although he wanted to spend more time there, with the handsome Benjamin Royce of course.

Oh, I don't know what would happen if he could spend time with that lovely guy. Shown in his memory as they enjoyed the sunset from the shoreline. It will be a very beautiful and romantic moment.

Autumn again turned her gaze to the beautiful man who was more silent and listened to 'warmness' at the typical Hilaire family dining table. Benjamin knew that. He looked back at Autumn for a moment. Benjamin gestured for Autumn to agree to Edgar's decision. The girl smiled a little too. He could understand the signal so clearly.

A few moments have passed. All the activities at the dinner table are done. Benjamin and Edgar seemed to talk for a while, before the owner of The Royal Royce said goodbye to go home. But Benjamin did not leave immediately. He stopped for a moment in his car to send a message to Autumn.

Autumn's happiness grows as she opens the incoming message from Benjamin. The man sent me a red heart emoji. Autumn immediately replied to him with a face emoji that was sticking out his tongue (Face with Stuck-Out Tongue emoji), making Benjamin only smile when he saw it. Not long after, the man then drove his car and left from there.
