Married in a Flash Embarking on the Journey to Wealth novel Chapter 281

Chapter 281 

Cynthia wasn’t a person who would waver, so she didn’t show her doubts

Instead, she followed Leslie out of the airport and got into the car with the same polite mannerism

Once in the car, she didn’t ask any questions

She took out her work files and systematically reported the situation back at the headquarters. Her professionalism and efficiency was what Leslie admired most about her

Cynthia was two years younger than Leslie

Leslie was the only dualdegree student who graduated with straight A’s in his year

When he had taken the stage to speak as a representative, the entire venue had buzzed with 

excitement. However, everyone instantly calmed down and listened attentively when his deep voice resonated through the hall

This was the first time Cynthia saw Leslie

Although they had attended the same college, Leslie kept a low profile and was dedicated to his 

studies

After his junior year, he started his own business, making him a legend on campus

However, Cynthia had never seen him until that day

During the speech, she watched the godlike man on the stage

She felt as if something had hit her, and her heart raced. Every sound around her seemed to fade, leaving only his calm and captivating voice

From that day onward, she paid attention to Leslie’s every move

But one day, he seemed to have disappeared. She thought that she would never see him again

Unexpectedly, during a job interview, he turned out to be the interviewer

At that time, he wore a welltailored suit, and his contemplative gaze was enchanting

Only then did she learn about his successful entrepreneurship and that he had become extremely wealthy

The moment they met again, she decided to stay close to him

With her excellent grades and skills, she confidently and smoothly secured a job offer from the 

company

On her first day at the company, she became the center of attention because she was the only woman that Leslie had hired in the company

Initially, she thought that Leslle had feelings for her, so she started showing subtle hints or 

Chapter 281 

unintentional signs of affection. But Leslie remained unmoved

Not only was he unmoved, but whenever she approached him cautiously, he would immediately show displeasure and resistance

Once, while she was drunk, she told him about her feelings

He flatly rejected her and made it clear that she wasn’t suitable to be by his side anymore

The next day, she explained that she had drunk too much and had mistaken Leslie for her crush, so he excused her. But since then, Leslie had kept his distance from her

When to establish the company, she had immediately applied to accompany 

e returned to se him. He rejected her request, saying that there was still unfinished business in the foreign company

She had been anxious the entire time that Leslie was gone, until she heard from her colleagues that he was as much a loner as before and that there were no women in the company. This reassured her

However, this time was different. But she couldn’t tell exactly what was different

Leslie sat by the car window, slowly flipping through the files in his hand

Suddenly, his phone vibrated

He opened his WhatsApp and glanced at it before replying swiftly

Coincidentally, the sunlight outside the window fell on the side of his face, and his once inscrutable expression now carried a hint of gentleness

At this moment, Cynthia was shocked to realize that Leslie had truly changed

She had spent years trying to impress him, but she had lost to someone who had known him for only 

two months

Her expression darkened, and a feeling of frustration rose within her

She took a deep breath and maintained her good manners as she asked, Do we still follow the same routine at the opening ceremony later?” 

The socalled same routine referred to her acting as Leslie’s date

Leslie’s resistance to women was obvious to all. Because of that, in some foreign countries, many people thought that he had a different sexual orientation and started joking around about it

For example, he would sometimes return to his hotel late at night to find a handsome man waiting on 

the couch for him.. 

In order to avoid further misunderstandings, Cynthia had offered to act as his date on different occasions. But she also did it so that she could claim Leslie as her own

Leslie didn’t enjoy socializing, so he had agreed to it

Today was the opening ceremony of One Technology. Almost all the dignitaries in the city would be present. It was inevitable that people would throw themselves at Leslie

Having a date by his side would save him a lot of trouble

Besides, Cynthia was beautiful, capable, and educated. Even If someone wanted to introduce Leslie to other women as a favor, they would have to introduce him to women who were better than her
