Chapter 384 

But wait! 

Aurelia was Leslie’s wife! She was different from the others! 

Then, Aurelia remembered Jessica and Maria’s earnest advice to find a way everyone’s admiration for Leslie. 

And wasn’t now the perfect opportunity to do so? 

to shatter 

Plus, the foreign language institution that Maria recommended had offered her a discount, so she had to help them no matter what. 

With these thoughts in mind, Aurelia immediately stood on her tiptoes and glanced up at Leslie. “Why are you so careless? Your tie’s crooked. Let me straighten it out for you. You should’ve let me do it before you left this morning.” 

Aurelia’s tone had never been this soft. In fact, it wasn’t even this soft during the honeymoon phase with Seth. 

Leslie frowned at first. But then, he smirked. “Okay.” 

Aurelia’s hands paused in surprise as she adjusted Leslie’s tie. 

She hadn’t anticipated his response. She’d just thought of playing along with her little act. 

What should she say next? 

Then, she chuckled softly. “Let’s save the rest for when we’re home.” 

“Hmm,” Leslie responded in a low voice. 

Then, Aurelia stayed quiet, feeling like her words could easily be misunderstood. 

Then, when the elevator doors finally opened, Aurelia grabbed Leslie’s arm and strode. out under everyone’s gazes. 

As they walked out, she muttered to herself, “I’m never coming back here again.” 

Leslie smirked. Truly, wherever Aurelia was, something unexpected would happen. 

Once they were inside the car, Aurelia felt too awkward to strike up a conversation. So, she pretended to be engrossed in her phone, scrolling through the latest online trends. 

The Internet was indeed ever–changing. After Aurelia posted all the evidence against the 

Subway Heroes, everyone backed down and apologized one after another, hoping for Aurelia’s forgiveness. 

But would she forgive them? Not a chance! 

As for the instigators, Kimberly and Seth, their crimes were serious–defamation and spreading obscene videos. Hence, they were bound for jail. And even though they were out on bail now, they were being treated like pariahs. 

Aurelia also caught wind of the recent happenings from her former colleagues. 

Apparently, Kimberly, who could have lived comfortably with a wealthy businessman got dumped for a younger college student. Even her uncle ditched her and denied being related to her in front of everyone. 

Meanwhile, Seth got himself in trouble because of this incident, and his stepson had used it against him. This then led to Seth getting divorced, and his wife and mother were both on his stepson’s side. 

So, Seth’s reputation also took a hit among his peers, and it made it impossible for him to stay in Seacester any longer. 

This just proved that those who seek shortcuts would never succeed. 

Just then, Aurelia received a message from Eva. 

Surprisingly, it turned out to be an apology letter. 

The apology seemed heartfelt, and it stated Eva’s willingness to engage her industry connections to fix the necklace, with all the expenses being covered by her.
