Married in a Flash Embarking on the Journey to Wealth novel Chapter 271

Chapter 271 

The cause of the suffocating atmosphere? Millie. 

She had been fired by the company and came by to gather her things. 

Everyone avoided her, while she ignored them. 

She continued to make noises on purpose as she packed and took out the makeup products in her 

drawer. 

“I haven’t used this. Why don’t you take it?” Mille said with feigned generosity. 

Her colleague knew that she got all her money from a loan and shook their head, worried that they would get dragged into the mess as well. 

“No, it’s fine. I don’t wear makeup.” 

“What’s that on your face, then? Drop the act. Take it!” It’s not like you’ve ever used anything nice!” Millie said arrogantly, as if she wasn’t the one packing her things after getting fired. 

This angered her colleague and they pushed all the makeup products on her table into the trash bin. 

“Oops, my bad. It’s fine, though. I don’t have a habit of going through the trash,” she said impatiently. 

Millie’s lips twitched. 

It seemed like everyone knew she hid in a trash can to get away from her creditors. 

Taking a deep breath, she turned to grab the box on her table, before heading for the door. 

Halfway there, she stopped and turned around to face everyone. 

Revealing a radiant smile, she said, “Oh, I forgot to mention that it’s been a while since I wanted to quit. Tomorrow, I’ll be leaving the country with Jackson. We plan to settle abroad. Goodbye.” 

With that, she left grinning from ear to ear, expecting everyone to envy het. 

Little did she know, everyone smirked and chuckled in disgust as soon as she turned around. 

Aurelia shook her head. 

Not interested in Millie, she sat down. 

She was a bit curious and wondered if she could really leave the country with Jackson in her current 

situation. 

Aurelia carried her curiosity into the next morning, which happened to be a weekend. 

She indulged in a rare lazy morning. 

Though married, and the cohabitation agreement explicitly stated that she would take care of the

household, Leslie didn’t require her to be a traditional housewife. 

When they were busy with work, he would suggest takeout and even order food in advance. 

On weekends, he insisted that Aurelia didn’t need to wake up early or cook, claiming that he could take care of himself. 

After all, for anyone who worked a full–time job, the weekend was reserved for doing nothing at all. 

Aurelia turned over in bed when her phone vibrated several times.
