“Why are you crying?”

Only then did Aurelia notice that she was crying.

She raised her hand to wipe her tears, but he stopped her and lifted her chin.

He asked, “Do you want to smudge your makeup?”

“I… forgot.” There were tears streaming down her cheeks, but her expression was conflicted.

The next moment, Leslie carefully wiped her tears away with the tissue.

She clenched her fists to steady her breath, but she couldn’t take her eyes off Leslie’s face.

“Um… The cake has been packed,” the staff said awkwardly.

“Thank you,” Aurelia said, desperately wanting to hide herself. Not wanting Leslie to notice anything,

she grabbed the cake and sat in the back seat of the car.

Leslie got into the car and glanced at her without saying anything.

On the way home, Aurelia felt extremely awkward and toyed with the ribbon on the box. Suddenly, she

stepped on something when she moved her feet.

She lowered her gaze and saw an almond and a lipstick.

“Mr. Synder, this car…”

“It belongs to the company.” Leslie assumed that Aurelia was asking about the car because it different

“No, I mean to ask why there’s lipstick and an almond in the car.”

She stretched out her arm and showed him the items.

Leslie tensed.

He recognized the lipstick. He had seen Cynthia use it when she was touching up.her makeup.

As for the nut, the driver cleaned the car daily according to his instructions, and it was impossible to

miss such a big nut.

Moreover, he was the only one who used the car, and the driver wouldn’t dare to lend it to anyone else.

Apart from Aurelia, only Cynthia had been in the car today.

No further explanation was needed for him to know what had happened.

However, Leslie didn’t tell Aurelia what was on his mind and simply said, “Someone else must have

dropped it. I’ll ask the driver about it when I return the car tomorrow.”

Aurelia nodded and placed the lipstick on the front passenger seat.

Upon reaching home, she noticed that it was almost time for dinner and got up to cook.

To her surprise, Leslie stood up and said, “I’ll do it. Let’s have pasta tonight.”

slightly taken aback, she asked, “Can you cook?”

Leslie didn’t say anything and walked directly into the kitchen, seeming a little upset.

Aurelia didn’t dwell on it and comfortably sat on the couch.

Just then, Linda sent her a message.

“Aurelia, happy birthday.”

The message was accompanied by a transaction of 1500 dollars.

“Mom, how did you know that it’s my birthday? And why did you give me so much money?”

“Leslie reminded me just now. It’s a good thing that he did, or I would’ve forgotten.

“He must have been worried that you’ll feel sad about not being able to celebrate your birthday with

your mother since she’s in a coma, so he contacted me. Take this money and buy something you like.”

“Thank you, Mom.”

Aurelia turned to look at Leslie in the kitchen, realizing that being with a man like him could truly

bring her happiness.

Wait. Why was she thinking about the future again?

She quickly patted her cheeks, dispelling these unrealistic thoughts.

Just then, Leslie’s phone on the table rang.

Aurelia walked over and glanced at the screen. An unsaved phone number was displayed on the

screen.

Apparently, Leslie didn’t like saving numbers.

But she recognized the number. It was the woman who had called Leslie the last time.

Aurelia quickly took the phone to the kitchen.

Leslie was in the middle of washing vegetables.

Aurelia smiled and said, “Mr. Synder, there’s a call for you.‘

Leslie was busy preparing their dinner. He glanced at the number and said nonchalantly, “Answer it –

for me.”

Aurelia considered for a moment, then answered the phone.

She stood on her tiptoes so that she could put the phone closer to Leslie’s ear. With their proximity, she

could hear the woman’s voice clearly.

“I seem to have come down with a fever, I’m not very familiar with the medical system here. Can you

take me to the hospital?”

The woman’s voice sounded weak, and it didn’t sound like she was pretending

But why would she seek help from Leslie when there were so many other people in One Technology?
