Married in a Flash Embarking on the Journey to Wealth novel Chapter 209

Chapter 209

Leslie would come?

Aurelia looked at him in surprise and wondered if she had misheard him.

Leslie glanced at her and placed his hands in his pockets.

“Any problems?”

Aurelia shook her head.

“No, no. It’s just that my colleagues are mostly women, and their way of talking can be a bit… sarcastic.”

While having Leslie attend the department gathering could save Aurelia a lot of trouble, it was still important to make things clear to avoid any discomfort on his part.

“I know.” Leslie nodded indifferently.

Just then, he received a message on his phone.

After reading it, he frowned.

“Is there anything else you want to buy? My mom told us to head to the restaurant.

Aurelia pursed her lips and realized Leslie may not enjoy being told what to do.

After all, he didn’t seem like someone who enjoyed being manipulated.

“Leslie, if you have something to do, you can go ahead. I won’t tell Mom.”

Leslie looked displeased.

“Aurelia, am I a virus?”

Aurelia looked at him in puzzlement.

“Are you in such a hurry to get rid of me?”

“Get rid of you? No, I’m just worried you might not like feeling pressured,” she explained.

“Pressured? I’ll let you know if I feel that way. Let’s go and have lunch.”

Leslie walked forward without waiting for Aurelia’s response.

“Okay.”

Aurelia followed Leslie to the restaurant.

The restaurant manager came forward to greet Leslie.

“Mr… Sir.”

Before the manager could finish, he sensed Leslie’s gaze and immediately corrected himself.

“Welcome, both of you. This way, please.”

Walking beside Leslie, Aurelia whispered, “The manager seems to know you.”
