Chapter 326
“Alright,” Aurelia sald to Leslie. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
She thought that he would put it on a necklace. After all, they were simply in a marriage of convenience, and he didn’t need to wear a ring.
A moment later, she froze.
Leslie placed the ring on his ring finger without hesitation, fitting perfectly.
She used to think her father had beautiful hands. She couldn’t help stealing glances at Leslie’s hands after meeting him..
She finally understood the reason for her behavior.
Leslie was taken aback as well. He was merely trying it on for size but didn’t expect it to fit so perfectly.
“I guess your dad is quite satisfied with me.”
“As what? His son–in–law?” she said and felt like slapping herself in the face.
Aurelia could practically feel Leslie’s smile and knew that she had amused him.
She had lost count of how often she lost control of her mouth.
Aurelia stood up and yawned.
“I have work tomorrow, so I’ll head to bed now. You should tidy up.”
With that, she ran back to her room.
Leslie stayed on the balcony to finish his cola.
In the meantime, he also saw the news about the car accident and the mention of the emergency contact.
Chuckling, he realized Aurelia found out that he’d made her an emergency contact.
Staring at the golden ring on his finger, he felt no discomfort and even felt that he would
win tomorrow.
He wondered about the type of woman Aurelia was.
The next day, Aurelia woke up late.
She was going to tell Leslie that she wouldn’t be cooking. To her surprise, he had already prepared breakfast.
She figured he must have bought it beforehand.
Smiling, Aurelia grabbed the breakfast and hurried along, but her eyelids started
twitching again.
The last time her eyelids twitched, she ran into Eva. Today, she and Kimberly were going to meet Eva again.
She hoped that nothing would go wrong this time.
With that thought, Aurelia rubbed her eyes and quickly finished her breakfast before heading to the office.
She planned to review some documents with Kimberly before going to meet Eva. However, a colleague informed her that Kimberly had already left.
“I came early today because I’m on duty. Kimberly came into the office early, took something, and left. She said she was going to the shooting location for IN Magazine. Didn’t you know?”
“No, I didn’t.”
Aurelia sighed.
“You better hurry. Kimberly is probably there to steal the limelight. She talks big but doesn’t have much talent. You’ll get in trouble if she says the wrong thing.”
Now that Kimberly’s status wasn’t what it used to be, everyone was no longer holding back their resentment toward her.
Aurelia thought her colleague was right, so she quickly took a taxi to the magazine’s shooting location.
Meanwhile, on the hotel rooftop, Eva was drinking coffee with sunglasses on as she listened to her assistant talk about the day’s shooting affairs.
She nodded along with her eyes closed but suddenly frowned at the sound of high heels clacking.
During the shoot, no one was allowed to wear high heels apart from herself and the models to avoid affecting her mood.
Since the models hadn’t arrived yet, it must be one of those staff members who didn’t know the rules.
Eva opened her eyes to see a woman smiling and extending her hand.
“Hello, Ms. Hanks. I’m Kimberly from Young Advertising.”
