Married in a Flash Embarking on the Journey to Wealth

Chapter 347
Leslie shook his head and explained, “She’s not afraid of that. People are
inherently selfish, especially when facing a 50 million dollar compensation.
Everyone present knows how to save themselves.
“Besides, she immediately went online about this incident and shifted all the
blame onto you. This way, the magazine will go along with this to avoid angering
the jewelry owner and use it to increase your responsibility.”
The more Aurelia listened, the more grim her expression became.
She felt powerless when compared to Eva. Perhaps she should learn to
apologize and beg for mercy like others. At least she wouldn't have to bear such
a heavy burden.
Still, she couldn't do it. She was a person, not a pet to be tamed by Eva. On top
of that, it wasn't even her fault.
If she compromised today, Eva would just go on to harm more people in the
future.
This struggle might be difficult, but she hoped that others facing similar situations
would stand up for themselves as well in the future. The more people stood up,
the sooner individuals like Eva would be exposed.
With these thoughts, Aurelia’s expression eased somewhat.
“I don't believe Eva can cover up everything. We'll keep investigating. As long as
we find that piece of wire, we'll prove my innocence,” she said firmly.
Leslie looked at her with surprise.
“What's wrong?” she asked.
“I didn’t expect you to adapt so quickly,” he said.
Aurelia rested her chin on her hand helplessly. “Not really. My palms are still not
cool from being calm. You didn't see how fast a person can really adapt.
“There was a senior colleague in our company before. She caught her husband
cheating in the morning, divorced him in the afternoon, and appeared at the
meeting table an hour later to give a presentation.”
She continued, “We all praised her for being so impressive, but she bitterly said
there are no capable people, only those who have no options. She still has two
children to support.
“My mom hasn't woken up yet, and the follow-up treatment will cost a lot of
money. Every month, most of my salary goes to the caregivers. I can’t stop, and
1 shouldn't stop. If I can’t prove my innocence, I won't even be able to find a job
in Seacester.”
She turned to Leslie and elaborated, “Mr. Synder, do you know how hard it is to
find a job. now? It's even harder for women. Your distant personality may be
described as focused at work, but do you know what a cold woman is called in
the workplace? Arrogant with bad attitude.
“I've noticed that your company’s key decision makers are all men except for the
two receptionists and Ms. Whitlock, who just returned to the country. You don't
seem to like female employees, do you?”
Leslie furrowed his brows and realized that he had indeed been generalizing the
employees in his company.
“So, I can't afford to lose,” Aurelia concluded. With that, she returned her gaze to
the screen to review the surveillance footage.
Leslie watched Aurelia for a long time without her noticing, until she tugged at his
sleeve.
“Mr. Synder, look! It's Kimberly,” she pointed out.
Leslie snapped out of his daze and stared at the screen. “That's when you were
heading to the station to have your testimony taken. Kimberly was at the back.
“She is going into the elevator.” Aurelia stared at the screen nervously and
unconsciously grabbed his hand.
Leslie was slightly taken aback and lowered his gaze to her hand.
Aurelia was quite tall, but her hands were small. They were slightly chubby and
hen compared to women who maintained their looks well, her hands weren't that
pretty
Still, her palms were soft and cold because of stress. It was a stark contrast to
the w of his hand. He couldn't decide how to feel. Instead of shaking her hand
off, he he her hand gently.

“Or maybe not.” Leslie rewound the footage and paused the screen.
Aurelia leaned closer in confusion. “There's no difference.”
“Look at the strap of her purse,” he said.
