Chapter 70
Seeing Kimberly’s sour expression, Aurelia felt a strange sense of satisfaction.
Just a couple of days ago, Kimberly had been complaining that even with money, she couldn’t buy coffee from the Beanless Brews coffee shop. Today, she had unintentionally thwarted herself, which deprived her of an opportunity to flaunt it on social media.
What was even more unexpected was that the person delivering the coffee was the owner of Beanless Brews coffee shop. With his blond hair and tall stature, he immediately caught everyone’s attention upon entering.
“Ms. M-” the handsome man started to call out in a friendly manner, but he quickly changed his tone after Linda shot him a meaningful glance. “Ms. Miller, your coffee has arrived.”
“Okay, just leave it there,” Linda replied casually.
Everyone eagerly approached to take their coffee and took photos with the handsome coffee shop owner to share on their social media.
On the sidelines, Kimberly considered getting up a few times, but Aurelia watched her with a knowing smile. She could only sit back down, her regret evident on her face. It was quite comical.
As lunchtime approached its end, Linda announced that she wouldn’t disturb their work any longer and prepared to leave. Aurelia escorted her downstairs and immediately took out her phone.
“Mom, how much did you spend today? I’ll transfer the money to you right away.”
“Why are you talking nonsense? I treated you to some food, and you want to give me money? Linda replied, displeased.
“But there were so many things, which must have been expensive.”
“I said it’s okay, don’t make a fuss. Do you still see me as your mother–in–law if you keep refusing?” Linda asked.
“Alright, then. I’ll treat you to something delicious next time.”
“Sure, let’s go to that restaurant we often visit. I’ve been craving their snacks these past few days.”
“Okay. But, Mom, thank you.”
Linda probably had no idea how much she had helped Aurelia today. She could finally break free from the center of attention.
Linda pursed her lips and smiled. “Why are you thanking me? Thank your husband. He’s the one who asked me to come.”
Aurelia’s mind blanked for a moment, and she hesitated. “Mr. Synder?”
Linda rolled her eyes. “You keep everything to yourself even when you’re facing issues. I would have come earlier if I knew these people were treating you like this. I’d make them envy you to death.”

Aurelia quickly intervened, fearing that Linda might end up treating everyone to afternoon tea every other day. “Mom, since you know what they’re like, it’s better if you don’t come in the future. It’s your money, and there’s no need to waste it on others.”
Linda burst into laughter, covering her mouth. “Every time I’m with you, I can’t help but laugh. You’re right, I’ll buy for you next time, not for them.”
Aurelia nodded in agreement. “Yes, that sounds like a plan. Please be careful on your way back.
“Don’t worry.”
With a wave of her hand, Linda left the building. Aurelia breathed a sigh of relief and quickly started typing on her phone.
“Mr. Synder, thank you for today.”
“You’re welcome.”
It’s still concise and very much like Leslie’s.
