Chapter 316

Everyone looked at her with a pointed smile when she entered the office.

Aurelia greeted them, “Hello, everyone.”

A few nosy people got up, only to sit back down when Leslie glared at them.

“Hello, Ms. Simmons.”

“I hope I'm not interrupting anything,” she said.

Daniel didn’t want the others to reveal too much, so he immediately chimed in, “No, of course not. The boss said

we could take a break to eat, so we are ordering food now. You guys can go ahead.”

“Sure.”

Aurelia nodded and followed Leslie to his workstation. As she walked, she stepped on something and

cclose to stumbling.

She lowered her gaze and found a lipstick. It was coincidentally the exact sbrand as the one she

had found in the car.

To her knowledge, only two women were working at the reception in this company. They wouldn’t have entered

the office space to put on lipstick.

Hence, it was likely that this was the exact slipstick she found in the car.

Moreover, it was a lipstick from a luxury brand, so one couldn't possibly lose it.

She wondered if someone had deliberately left it behind for her to see.

Just then, Aurelia noticed a rose-fragrant hand cream on Leslie's desk that evidently belonged to a

woman.

“So the woman who picked up his phone sits beside him,” she thought.

Aurelia contemplated for a moment. Instead of making a fuss, she patted Leslie's arin, signaling him

to look down.

“What-"

Leslie was about to ask when he spotted the lipstick. He frowned with displeasure.

“I didn’t know.”

“I knew. I'm just reminding you not to step on it. This lipstick is quite expensive. Where should | put it?”

Aurelia picked up the lipstick.

“There.”

Leslie pointed to the adjacent table.

Aurelia set down the lipstick. She then pulled over a chair as if nothing had happened and opened the

meal box for Leslie.

Changing the subject, she said, “I prepared a simple dinner. You should eat first.”

Leslie couldn’t help but feel a bit angry at her calmness.

Aurelia had just seen a woman's belongings next to her husband’s chair, yet she remained highly composed.

“How considerate of her,” he thought sarcastically.

“Alright.”

Leslie picked up the fork moodily.

Aurelia was puzzled.

Why was he angry again? Was it because the food wasn’t good? That seemed unlikely.

Was he worried she'd badmouth his female colleagues?

She glanced at the men discussing food ahead and leaned closer to Leslie.

“Mr. Synder.”

“Hmm?”

“Don’t worry, | won't say anything out of line. You're a handsman, so it’s normal for someone to have a

crush on you. | simply didn’t inquire further because | feared your colleagues might get the wrong idea. Besides,

what if it’s just a misunderstanding?” Aurelia said seriously.

Leslie suddenly lost his appetite. Aurelia’s easy-going nature somehow irritated him.

“You're quite understanding,” he said gruffly.

“Thank you.”

Leslie fell silent with a grim expression.

Aurelia glanced at the space between Leslie and the other woman. They were sitting close enough to

touch.

She felt uneasy but knew the woman who could casually take Leslie's phone wasn’t ordinary.

After all, Leslie was furious with her in the past for simply grabbing the wrong phone at the hospital by accident.

Aurelia tugged at Leslie's sleeve and whispered, “Mr. Synder, could you-"

“Could | do what?” Leslie snapped coldly.

Aurelia had better say something he liked to hear.

“Could you not be with anyone else?”

“Why?”

Leslie clenched his fist against his lips and felt slightly better.

“We're not divorced yet. Isn't it unacceptable to have an affair?” Aurelia whispered as she leaned in

close.

Leslie was speechless. He turned to look at Aurelia, his voice heavy.

“Are you that eager forto like someone else?”

Aurelia was confused by his words.

What did he mean by that?
