Married in a Flash Embarking on the Journey to Wealth novel Chapter 83

Chapter 83 

As Aurelia was still thinking about Kimberly’s strange behavior, Millie nudged her. 

“Aurelia, it’s time to go home. What are you spacing out for?” 

Hearing her, Aurelia got up and started packing her things. When she turned around, she saw Millie in her signature red dress, touching up her makeup. 

“Millie, what… what’s all this?” 

Millie smiled mysteriously. “I have a blind date tonight. How do I look? Pretty good, right?” 

With that, she twirled in front of Aurelia. However, she stumbled in her high heels, nearly falling over. Fortunately, Aurelia reached out to steady her. 

“A blind date? Aren’t you the one who hates blind dates the most? You said blind dates are an insult to women.” 

“Well… It’s different this time. The matchmaker said the guy is a returnee. He owns his own company and has a penthouse apartment in Emerald Valley worth at least ten million. All he’s looking for in a girl is someone gentle and family–oriented. That pretty much describes me!” 

Millie held a little purse, transforming herself into a gentle and timid lady. 

Aurelia found this all very suspicious and warned her, “If he truly possesses that level of wealth, finding a wife should be easy for him. He wouldn’t need to rely on blind dates. 

“Frequently, individuals who mention just one requirement may have numerous concealed conditions. Be cautious not to be taken advantage of.” 

Hearing this, Millie pursed her lips, looking quite unhappy. “Aurelia, can’t you just wish me well? If I marry into a wealthy family, you’ll be the first person I think of. I’ll introduce your husband to work in my future husband’s company, and your salary won’t be low.” 

“But…” 

“Okay, okay, I won’t say more. I’ve booked a ride–hail car, and it’s arriving soon. I have to go.‘ 

Without waiting for Aurelia to finish speaking, Millie hurriedly left. 

Aurelia sighed and organized her desk before preparing to leave. Just as she reached the office entrance, she heard Zachary’s voice. 

“Aurelia, could you come in for a moment?” 

“Sure.” 

Aurelia put down her bag and entered his office. Behind her, a figure emerged from the pantry. – it was Kimberly. 

Kimberly glanced at the tightly closed door of Zachary’s office and then in the direction where Millie had disappeared. She pursed her lips into a smile and quietly followed Millie’s footsteps. 

Aurelia, you think you can compete with me, 

you can compete with me, huh? Well, I’ll make sure you come out of this with absolutely nothing. 

Inside the office, Aurelia stood respectfully.

“Mr. Zeller, is there something you need?” 

“It’s not a big deal, really. The boss has set up a presentation with One Technology for next Tuesday at 10:00 AM. We’ll all head over there together. If they sign the contract, you’ll be promoted to vice director.” 

“Alright, thank you, Mr. Zeller.” 

Aurelia felt a rush of excitement. Next Tuesday was only two days away, and it wouldn’t conflict with her mother’s surgery scheduled for Monday. 

“You can leave now. I’ve taken up enough of your time.”
