Married in a Flash Embarking on the Journey to Wealth novel Chapter 46

Chapter 46 

Kimberly chuckled, “I doubt it. I mean, I haven’t exactly saved Mrs. Lynch’s life or her daughter’s. What’s there to envy?” 

A colleague said, “Mrs. Lynch isn’t even part of One Technology. Even if Mr. Lynch had a say, he’s still just a manager. You know how the boss of One Technology is. Ultimately, it’s his call for all the collaborations.” 

Kimberly smiled and stopped talking further, but everyone in the office had heard those words clearly. 

Those who had previously mocked Kimberly for her adeptness at charming wealthy men suddenly changed their tune, eagerly seeking to gain favor with the prospective deputy 

director. 

Kimberly grinned at Aurelia. However, Aurelia remained focused on her work, refusing to even acknowledge Kimberly’s presence. 

Kimberly was clueless about Ian. It seemed improbable for him to have gifted her such expensive clothing- 

Seeing that she had failed to impress Jason, Kimberly shifted her focus, fearing that her position in the office would be compromised. 

However, Aurelia was unfazed by it all. 

Noticing Aurelia’s indifference, Kimberly felt a twinge of dissatisfaction. In her point of view, Aurelia should envy her, especially considering the outfit that she was currently dressed in. After all, with her monthly salary, Aurelia couldn’t even afford the pair of shoes Kimberly was wearing. 

At the thought of shoes, Kimberly’s eyes honed in on Aurelia’s weathered footwear. An arrogant smile spread across her face. She then elegantly took a seat, subtly showing off the expensive designer heels under her dress. 

“Kimberly, are those Christian Louboutin heels?” someone asked. 

“For us ladies, owning a pair of Louboutin heels is a necessity. These are only six thousand dollars. You should all get yourselves a pair too. Otherwise, you won’t be able to keep up with the trend,” she boasted. 

Kimberly lifted her feet, showing off her expensive lambskin high–heeled shoes. 

“Are you interested? I’m quite familiar with the store’s sales associate and can help reserve a pair for you. We can have afternoon tea and take photos together. It’ll look great,” Kimberly said enthusiastically. 

“I’d like that!” 

“Me too!” 

A few colleagues expressed their interest as they stood up excitedly, and even Millie raised her hand to join them. 

Aurelia was taken aback by the sight. Millie, who had previously disliked Kimberly’s showiness the most, was now actually planning to purchase a pair of heels that cost six thousand dollars.

It seemed like she would be stretching her budget thin this month. 

Aurelia discreetly signaled to Millie, hoping to convey her concern. However, either Millie didn’t catch on to the signal, or she deliberately chose to ignore it. 

Aurelia was perplexed. Suddenly, Kimberly appeared before her. 

“Aurelia, would you also like a pair? Look at your heels. They’re quite worn out.” 

“No, thank you. My shoes are just fine.” 

Aurelia glanced at her own high heels. It was a classic pair of black heels. The pointed style accentuated her feet gracefully. However, the pointed tips were a little scuffed, making them appear a bit worn.
