Chapter 258
“Oh, then what about…”
“Aurelia, are you going to eat that?”
“No, it’s mine.”
She lowered her head and continued to eat.
It was fine if he didn’t want it. She could save money that way.
Still, she wondered if maybe he was just shy.
With that thought in mind, she lifted her gaze to steal a glance at him.
Leslie sighed and glanced at her.
“Do you need me to prove myself to you?”
Both of them were taken aback by his words.
Leslie had always been cold and distant, so he would never say something like that.
He was shocked himself.
Aurelia bowed her head, flushing to the point that even her ears were red.
“It’s fine. You don’t have to.‘
How else could a man prove that he had good stamina?

After a few moments of silence, Leslie sensed the weird atmosphere and changed the subject.
“What kind of nightmare did you have? Why were you so frightened?”
“Well… I dreamt of someone asking me to pay them back.”
Aurelia paused before deciding to only tell him the latter half of the dreamt
If she told him that they were in a wedding together, Leslie might not be able to finish his coffee.
Confused, Leslie asked, “Pay them back?”
She pouted.
“I’ve never had this kind of dream before. I guess we talked about money so much yesterday that it got
stuck in my mind.”
She decided to not think much of it.
Getting up, she said, “I need to go now. I won’t make lunchboxes today.”
He nodded. “Sure.”

With that, she took her purse and left home.

When Aurelia arrived at the company, she received a call from Mrs. Parker.
She stopped walking and answered her phone.
“Aurelia, have you reached your office? I wanted to meet you earlier, but I decided to wait until you.
started your day considering how exhausted you were yesterday.”
“Mrs. Parker, I just arrived at the company. Is everything okay with Mr. Parker?” Aurelia asked.
“The surgery was a success. He seems to be out of the woods for now. I’m truly grateful to you and
Leslie for this.”
“You don’t have to thank us. I’m just glad Mr. Parker is fine.”
“Aurelia, you…
Aurelia sensed her concern and prompted, “Mrs. Parker, just tell me what y
you need.”
“Now that you’re at the company, can you check if Millie is there? She told me yesterday that she wants
to go abroad. We had an argument and she left. I couldn’t reach her on the phone this morning.
Aurelia sighed softly as she heard Mrs. Parker sobbing and glanced into the office.
She spotted Millie fixing her makeup at her desk.
“Don’t worry, Mrs. Parker. Millie is already at the company.”
Relieved, Mr. Parker said, “Good. Thank you.
“No problem.” Aurelia talked with her a bit more before ending the call.

As soon as she sat down, she felt Millie’s gaze upon her.
A concerned colleague went up to Millie and asked, “Millie, is your father okay?“!
“He’s fine. How could anything happen to my dad with Jackson around? I’m just worried that some
people might intentionally spread rumors and exaggerate things. They make a fuss about such trivial
matters, almost as if everyone needs to know.”
Millie spoke highly of Jackson but mocked Aurelia.
Aurelia would have never contacted her colleague had Millie not blocked her number.
Another colleague noticed that Millie’s engagement ring was missing and asked, “Millie, where’s your
ring?”
Millie covered her hand and discreetly glanced at Aurelia, afraid of what Aurelia might say.

“Jackson said it’s too small, so he won’t let me wear it. He’s planning to customize a new one for me
when we’re abroad,” she said hastily.
