Chapter 347

Leslie shook his head and explained, “She’s not afraid of that. People are inherently selfish, especially when

facing a 50 million dollar compensation. Everyone present knows how to save themselves.

“Besides, she immediately went online about this incident and shifted all the blonto you. This way, the

magazine will go along with this to avoid angering the jewelry owner and use it to increase your responsibility.”

The more Aurelia listened, the more grim her expression became.

She felt powerless when compared to Eva. Perhaps she should learn to apologize and beg for mercy like others.

At least she wouldn't have to bear such a heavy burden.

Still, she couldn't do it. She was a person, not a pet to be tamed by Eva. On top of that, it wasn’t even her fault.

If she compromised today, Eva would just go on to harm more people in the future.

This struggle might be difficult, but she hoped that others facing similar situations would stand up for

themselves as well in the future. The more people stood up, the sooner individuals like Eva would be exposed.

With these thoughts, Aurelia’s expression eased somewhat.

“I don’t believe Eva can cover up everything. We'll keep investigating. As long as we find that piece of wire, we'll

prove my innocence,” she said firmly.

Leslie looked at her with surprise.

“What's wrong?” she asked.

“I didn’t expect you to adapt so quickly,” he said.

Aurelia rested her chin on her hand helplessly. “Not really. My palms are still not cool from being calm. You didn’t

see how fast a person can really adapt.

“There was a senior colleague in our company before. She caught her husband cheating in the morning, divorced

him in the afternoon, and appeared at the meeting table an hour later to give a presentation.”

She continued, “We all praised her for being so impressive, but she bitterly said there are no capable people,

only those who have no options. She still has two children to support.

“My mom hasn't woken up yet, and the follow-up treatment will cost a lot of money. Every month, most of my

salary goes to the caregivers. | can’t stop, and 1 shouldn't stop. If | can’t prove my innocence, | won't even be

able to find a job in Seacester.”

She turned to Leslie and elaborated, “Mr. Synder, do you know how hard it is to find a job. now? It's even harder

for women. Your distant personality may be described as focused at work, but do you know what a cold woman is

called in the workplace? Arrogant with bad attitude.

“I've noticed that your company’s key decision makers are all men except for the two receptionists and Ms.

Whitlock, who just returned to the country. You don’t seem to like female employees, do you?”

Leslie furrowed his brows and realized that he had indeed been generalizing the

employees in his company.

“So, | can’t afford to lose,” Aurelia concluded. With that, she returned her gaze to the screen to review the

surveillance footage.

Leslie watched Aurelia for a long twithout her noticing, until she tugged at his sleeve.

“Mr. Synder, look! It’s Kimberly,” she pointed out.

Leslie snapped out of his daze and stared at the screen. “That's when you were heading to the station to have

your testimony taken. Kimberly was at the back.

“She is going into the elevator.” Aurelia stared at the screen nervously and unconsciously grabbed his hand.

Leslie was slightly taken aback and lowered his gaze to her hand.

Aurelia was quite tall, but her hands were small. They were slightly chubby and hen compared to women who

maintained their looks well, her hands weren't that pretty

Still, her palms were soft and cold because of stress. It was a stark contrast to the w of his hand. He couldn't

decide how to feel. Instead of shaking her hand off, he he her hand gently.

Aurelia didn’t pay any attention to it and stared at the screen unblinkingly while holding

his hand.

The elevator stopped once in the footage. People went in and out, but Kimberly didn’t get

off.

She remained there proudly and seemingly not guilty the entire time.

Aurelia was in a complete daze. “Am | wrong? Maybe Kimberly didn’t take the wire.”

“Or maybe not.” Leslie rewound the footage and paused the screen.

Aurelia leaned closer in confusion. “There's no difference.”

“Look at the strap of her purse,” he said.
