Married in a Flash Embarking on the Journey to Wealth

Chapter 181

The song ended and everyone returned to their seats.

Aurelia hastily pulled away from Leslie and returned to her seat.

Leslie glanced at his now empty hand and curled his fingers, before returning to the table.

After the meal, Aurelia called the waiter over for the bill and Leslie took out a black card to place on

the bill.

He shot a steady look at the waiter. “It’s a coupon.”

The waiter came close to losing control of his expression. No one ever told him that being a waiter required acting skills as well. “Sure, please wait.”

The waiter returned to the counter and whispered to the manager for a long while.

They spent quite some time operating on the computer before finally returning to Aurelia with the bill with a resigned expression.

Aurelia took the bill and was surprised. The meal was supposed to cost five hundred but had now been reduced to around seventy with the discount.

Aurelia handed her card over and stood. “I didn’t think that coupon would reduce the amount to this extent.”

Leslie nodded.

“Please come aga...Please be careful on your way out,” the waiter said.

He silently wished that this couple would never come again or the computer may actually break down. Aurelia didn’t think much of his words and left with Leslie.

After getting into the car, Leslie said, “Where are we going now?”

Aurelia glanced at the time and said, “Let’s go to the supermarket. You gave me quite a lot of money so we can get some of the things we need at home.”

Leslie shot her a confused look. “That money is for you. You can just buy whatever you want.”

Aurelia considered it and said, “But | don’t need anything. You and your mom bought me so many things that | don’t really have anything else | want. Let’s just get the things we need at home.”

Leslie was hesitant, but nodded in the end.

On the way to the supermarket, Aurelia switched on her phone and stumbled upon a lively conversation in the company group chat.

Her colleagues at the restaurant just now had taken a photo of her and Leslie dancing.

“What's going on? Wasn't this Kimberly’s handsome and wealthy boyfriend?” One of them wrote.

“Today has been an eye-opener for me. If | hadn’t been there in person, | would’ve never believed that this is true. This isn’t Kimberly's boyfriend. This is Aurelia’s husband!”

“What? Aurelia’s husband? But Kimberly clearly said he was her suitor.” Kimberly chimed in. “It was an honest mistake. The photo is so blurry. It’s normal to make a mistake. 11

“Kimberly! Do you take us for fools? Blurry? How did you recognize this person so quickly, then? Can't you distinguish between 1.75 meters and 1.90 meters, or a 200-pound fat guy and a perfect figure of 160 pounds? Are you blind, or are we?”

“You tricked us into coming to the restaurant, then ran away. They charged us a hundred for a glass of wine and a piece of dessert. Are you out of your mind? It’s outrageous!”

Kimberly replied. “I'll pay you back! | made a mistake, It was just a mistake! If he’s Aurelia’s husband, why didn’t she say so before? She clearly did this on purpose!”

What a move to shift the topic.

Aurelia quickly typed. “The photo is so blurry that | didn’t recognize him right away. Besides, | wasn’t in the group when Kimberly identified him. How would | know? The later photos only showed the back of his head. How could | recognize him? If | had seen his figure, | wouldn’t have possibly mistaken him for someone else.”

She used Kimberly’s excuse to shut her up and then turned off group notifications to let them argue. “We're here.” Leslie parked the car and asked, “What are you smiling about?”

“Take a look.” Aurelia handed her phone to Leslie.

Looking at Aurelia’s response, Leslie furrowed his brows. “You seem to know a lot about my physique. 11

Aurelia’s smile stiffened. “Mr. Synder, let me explain.”

“Let's go.” Leslie turned around, curled his lips, and walked away.

Aurelia put her phone away and followed.

When they entered the supermarket, Leslie quickly took a shopping cart.

Her hand could only rest on the handle as she followed Leslie into the supermarket.

She felt more at case than dining in a fancy restaurant.

After buying groceries for the next week, Leslie made a sudden turn into the pharmacy section of the supermarket. An employee immediately approached. “Hello, may | help you with anything?”

Leslie glanced at Aurelia and said, “External injuries. | have some swelling.”

Aurelia tilted her head, confused as to why he looked at her.

She definitely didn’t cause him any injury.

Puzzled, the employee asked, “External injuries? Where? Can you show me? This way,

recommend something suitable. It’s been hot lately, and sweating can lead to infections..It's essential to handle injuries with care.”

Leslie furrowed his brow and nodded. “Alright.

With that, he unbuttoned the top four buttons of his collar. #N

Both Aurelia and the employee were stunned.
