Married in a Flash Embarking on the Journey to Wealth

Chapter 319
Cynthia made it seem like she had a close relationship with Leslie, leaving
Aurelia unable to interject.
She glanced at Aurelia again and said, “You wouldn't know, but I always seem to
be losing things overseas. It's either in his car or his apartment. There were even
times when I grabbed the wrong coat. The weather abroad is always dreary, so
I'd end up walking in his oversized coat on the streets. It's quite amusing.”
Three strikes—car, apartment, grabbing the wrong coat.
It was hard for one not to assume that there was something between Leslie and
Cynthia.
Still, it happened before their marriage, so Aurelia couldn't say much about it.
She stood quietly beside Leslie as Cynthia recounted tales of her and Leslie's
past.
Although she hated to admit it, Cynthia and Leslie standing together were more
pleasing to the eye than any handsome couple in a magazine.
There was an inherent elegance about them that others couldn't imitate.
Aurelia pursed her lips and lowered her head slowly, feeling defeated.
Cynthia's smirk grew deeper as she continued, “Where did you and Leslie meet?
At university? At the gallery? Museum? Or was it during a beach vacation?
Speaking of beach vacations, when we went surfing together last year, I almost
got swept away by the waves. Fortunately, Leslie saved me.” Perhaps Cynthia hit
the nail on the head because everyone put down their spoon and chimed in.
“Ms. Whitlock, you should be embarrassed! You saw how good Leslie was at
surfing and insisted on learning.”
“The same thing happened when we went skiing in the mountains. You went on
the most difficult trails without a word, but fortunately, Leslie managed to catch up
to you.
“It's quite impressive that you almost drowned in a hot spring, Ms. Whitlock.”
As they recounted their overseas experiences, Aurelia couldn't help but tighten
her grip on her skirt.
She felt like she didn't belong there, like an outsider trying to force her into a
clique where she didn't
fit.
Everyone in the office was high—paying talent, so going on vacations abroad was
as easy as going to the supermarket.
Aurelia, on the other hand, had never traveled out of the country.
They spoke of surfing by the beach, hot springs under volcanoes, and skiing
down endless snowy mountains. These were all the things she had never seen.
There was no way she could participate in this conversation.

Cynthia stared at Aurelia, smiling.
“Why are you so quiet? Don't tell me that... you've never been abroad?”
The office fell silent instantly. Those who were engaged in lively conversation just
moments ago now stood frozen in place.
They were all curious as to why Leslie was with Aurelia instead of Cynthia, who
was more favored
before.
Aurelia understood the looks they were giving her and knew that they were more
curious than malicious.
She took a deep breath before saying, “I-"
Before she could finish her sentence, she felt a weight on her shoulder and was
pulled aside.
When she looked up, she saw Leslie's tense expression. It was not directed at
her but at Cynthia. “If you could stop being so forgetful, you wouldn't have to
send me documents after work hours in the rain. If you had only known your own
limits during the annual trip, we wouldn't have to trouble ourselves to save you.”
Cynthia froze and fell into silence.
Leslie glanced at the others.
“Anything else you're curious about? You can ask me.
“No, not at all.
Daniel immediately got up.
“You all should finish your food and get back to work. Don’t you want to go
home?”
“Yeah, yeah.”
Everyone lowered their heads to eat, not daring to say anything else.
