Married in a Flash Embarking on the Journey to Wealth

The “brats” Linda spoke of were actually Leslie’s cousins, the twin sons of Leslie’s uncle. They were the ones Leslie had sent to Aurelia’s company to handle the plagiarism incident.

At this moment, the two of them were also the owners of the 50 million dollar necklace.

Leslie climbed the winding stairs. A few moments later, cries and pleas echoed from the

room.

“Leslie, we were wrong. We really didn’t know Eva borrowed the necklace to frame Aurelia,” pleaded the older brother, Nathan.

“Since we’ve helped Aurelia before, please forgive us,” chimed in Nick, the younger

brother.

Leaning against the window, Leslie lit a cigarette. His gaze was cold, and he was clearly not satisfied with their pleas.

Though young, they were eventually going to inherit their dad’s company. If they were so careless now, how would they handle things in the future?

Nathan continued, “This necklace was bought at auction for our mother. But she didn’t like it, so it’s been sitting in the bank vault for two or three years. Eva must have seen it at the auction house and wanted to borrow it to increase her magazine’s publicity, and we just…”

evil intentions?” Nick added.

Finishing their explanation, the brothers cautiously observed Leslie’s expression.

They weren’t afraid of anyone in the family except Leslie. Because when he got angry, he

could be merciless.

Leslie exhaled a puff of smoke. “Is that all?”

The brothers exchanged glances, then opened a drawer and handed Leslie a document.

“Leslie, please accept this small token of respect, as our tribute to Aurelia,” Nathan

offered.

“Yes, yes. Aurella is the best!” Nick echoed.

Leslle glanced at it and nodded. “Eva…”

“Don’t worry, we’ll cooperate fully and make sure she can’t escape,” Nathan said.

“The internet,” Leslie said.

Nick pulled out another document. “The list is right here. We’ve been itching to ease Aurelia’s burden.”

Leslie acknowledged them with a grunt. “I’m off.”

“Take care, Leslie. When will you bring Aurelia over?” Nick blurted out.

Nathan kicked him. How could Leslie bring her home when she didn’t even know Leslie’s identity?

Leslie paused for a moment, then replied, “Soon.”

With that, he left.

Nick leaned closer to Nathan. “It looks like things are working out for them. I quite like

Aurelia.”

Nathan stroked his chin. “Indeed, Leslie seems different now. We wouldn’t see the end of the lecturing if this happened in the past. He’s become surprisingly considerate.”

By the time Leslie arrived home, it was midnight. He thought Aurelia was already asleep, but she was actually lying on the couch.

She jolted awake at the noises immediately.

He frowned. “Why are you napping here?”

Aurelia was a little dazed and rubbed her eyes. “I saw the food you ordered for me. I guess you wouldn’t eat given how busy you are, so I decided to wait for you to make supper.”

He paused. “I told you not to wait for me.”

She stretched and yawned. “You can’t cook, and going to sleep hungry isn’t good for stomach. You’ve been working hard and I’m basically unemployed now. I don’t have to wake up early tomorrow. Just wait. I’ll make you some soup.”

He hummed in response and stared at her from behind, recalling what his mother said.

There would be mundane things and surprises in life. Was Aurella considered a surprise?

Aurelia put on the apron and walked over to the kitchen. “Mr. Synder, Leon Synder called me today.”
