Chapter 150
Aurelia was taken aback and showed five fingers at Leslie. “How about five hundred?”
He narrowed his eyes and felt speechless.
She was once in a relationship, yet she knew nothing about being in one.
How could married couples discuss money?
He reached out and poked her on the forehead gently. “Is money all you can think of?”

Leslie remained unwavering. “Mr. Lynch mentioned it. He is connected with Kimberly’s social media account.”
Aurelia nodded. Kimberly was the type to broadcast every detail in her friend circle, after all.
