Chapter 84 

Aurelia felt relieved and proceeded to the doctor’s office. 

Although the doctor had mentioned that her mother’s condition was relatively stable, the surgery still carried significant risks. The doctor emphasized the need for her to be mentally prepared.

While Aurelia couldn’t hide her anxiety completely, she understood that if she didn’t try, mother’s only option was a grim one. After expressing her gratitude to the doctor, she left the hospital. 

On her way home, Aurelia’s mind was in disarray. However, she found a moment to send a message to Millie. 

“Millie, is everything going smoothly?” 

“If anything seems off, please leave immediately.” 

She received a brief response from Millie. 

“I got it, I got it.” 

Aurelia rolled her eyes, thinking they were both adults capable of handling their own situations. 

When she arrived home, she was surprised to find Leslie’s neatly arranged shoes on the rack. He sat on the brown sofa in a well–fitted suit, his long legs crossed. He exuded a sense of expensive luxury that filled the otherwise simple living room. 

Aurelia couldn’t help but stare in amazement. 

“What are you looking at?” Leslie put down his phone and glanced at her. 

“Nothing,” Aurelia said, feeling a little embarrassed as she averted her gaze. She changed the subject, “Did the incident at the hotel today affect you?” 

“No,” Leslie replied. 

“That’s good,” Aurelia said, feeling relieved. 

“How about your company? Did anyone give you a hard time?” Leslie furrowed his brows, wondering why he cared about her. 

“No, but…” Aurelia smiled and shared, even though she knew Leslie might just be making polite conversation, “Mr. Synder, did you know the foreigner was fired?” 

“I didn’t know,” Leslie replied/disinterestedly. After all, he was the one who had orchestrated David’s dismissal. 

He thought their conversation had ended, but to his surprise, she put down her bag and boldly sat beside him. 

“Mr. Synder, I thought I was in big trouble too. After all, I hit the client’s VIP. I was bracing myself for a scolding when I returned. But who knew? He got fired! It’s really surreal.” 

Aurelia was usually cautious at work. But once she got home, she usually couldn’t wait to share what had happened with her parents.

Perhaps the week of living together had made her feel Leslie was reliable and a good listener, so she began to relax around him. 

Leslie was slightly taken aback. It was as if a crack had formed in the icy barrier around him, and waves of warmth were seeping through. He wasn’t used to it, so he shifted slightly, and Aurelia unconsciously moved as well. 

“Mr. Synder, did you hear about this? I heard David offended someone, and they used my incident as an excuse to have him deported from the country. This person must have quite a bit of influence to get rid of someone like him so effortlessly, don’t you think?” 

This conversation seemed to bring a sense of ease to Leslie, even though he hadn’t really cared about dealing with someone like David.
