Married in a Flash Embarking on the Journey to Wealth

Chapter 324
Aurelia walked outside and met Leslie's gaze, her mind wandering off again to
the emergency contact he set up.
“Why haven't you slept?” she asked.
Leslie noticed her nose wrinkling at the smell of cigarettes and put the cigarette
out.
“I couldn't sleep. What about you?”
“Um... No reason. I just saw a piece of news that made me quite emotional.”
She couldn't bring herself to ask him about the emergency contact, fearing that
she may be overthinking.
“What news?”
“It's about the accident on the bridge. It's nothing big.”
Not wanting to let it slip, Aurelia changed the subject.
“Are you worried about work?”
“I suppose so.”
Leslie didn’t tell the truth.
Daniel had just called him to say that the big shot in the Synder family wanted to
meet
him. It had been over a decade since they last met, and Leslie felt nervous.
Aurelia met the dark look in his eyes, realizing that he seemed frustrated.
She didn’t know much about his work and couldn't be of much help.
After a few thoughtful moments, her eyes lit up, and she said, “Just wait. I have
something great.”
Leslie watched her in confusion, wondering why she always seemed so
energetic.
Sometime later, she walked over with a tray. Apart from two glasses, there were
two odd- looking ornaments as well.
She pointed at the ornaments.
“Mr. Synder, pick one.”
“What for?” he asked.
“To eat,” Aurelia said solemnly.
He fell silent and wondered if she had lost her mind to the point of eating
ornaments.
“You pick. It's a surprise,” she said.
Leslie examined the ornaments before him. There was a bear and a rabbit.
Not given much of an option, he randomly chose the bear.
Aurelia picked up the bear and said mysteriously, “Watch closely. I'll perform a
magic trick for you.”
There was a tinkling sound, and a bear—shaped ice cube dropped into the cup,
instantly coating the cup with a layer of mist.
“Ta—da! Not bad for a five dollar magic trick, right?”
Aurelia chuckled.
The wind tousled her long hair and revealed her delicate features as she smiled.
Leslie was momentarily stunned, then realized he was rude for staring and
shifted his gaze to the cup.
It turned out the ornaments were actually ice cube molds.
Aurelia placed the rabbit-shaped ice cube into her own cup and poured some
cola into it.
She said softly, “I hid the cola. I was afraid you wouldn't like having snacks at
home.”
Leslie glanced at the cola.
“There's just one bottle of cola?”
Aurelia’s hand paused, and she chuckled.
“You noticed that too? Wait a moment.

After setting down her glass, she noticed Leslie hadn't moved and was looking at
her with surprise.
“What's wrong? Don't you like it?"
Aurelia looked at Leslie cautiously.
“No,” Leslie replied.
He raised his glass and took a sip of the cola.

Aurelia began recommending small snacks to him.
The gentle night breeze felt encouraging, and she grew braver.
She picked out a box of sour treats from among them and offered a piece to
Leslie’s lips.
“Mr. Synder, try it. It's delicious.”
