Married in a Flash Embarking on the Journey to Wealth

“Decline it. This is just their ploy to test my boundaries. Do you really think they'd send anyone important to meet me?” Leslie calmly analyzed the situation.

“Alright, I'll reject it immediately and say you're still overseas.” “Okay,” Leslie instructed.

“By the way, Mr. Synder, Young Advertising has scheduled to present their proposal the day after tomorrow,” Daniel said, changing the topic.

“Okay.”

Leslie had seen some of Aurelia’s proposals, which were indeed good. However, this opening banquet was crucial for him. Hence, he needed to review the complete proposal before he could make a decision.

After Daniel acknowledged and was about to hang up, Leslie stopped him.

“Daniel, find an interior designer to see if we can install air conditioning in the kitchen.”

“Huh? Mr. Synder, what did you wash this time?” Daniel was no longer surprised by such requests. “Washing vegetables.”

Daniel was speechless.

At that moment, footsteps approached behind Leslie, and he immediately ended the call.

“Mr. Synder, it’s time to eat,” Aurelia stood in the living room, waving.

“Im coming.”

Leslie stubbed out the cigarette in the ashtray and opened the glass door on the balcony. Upon entering, he smelled the aroma of the food, which reminded him of the family across the street again.

A family of three?

Perhaps he was going a bit crazy from the heat.

After sitting down, they ate in silence as Aurelia occasionally glanced at Leslie.

“Is there something you want to talk about?” Leslie asked.

“I'll be quite busy on Monday and Tuesday, so | might not be able to cook. You'll have to eat out,” Aurelia explained.

Her mother was having surgery on Monday, and she had a presentation at One Technology on Tuesday, so she would be swamped. She wouldn’t have time to cook, so she thought it would be best to inform Leslie in advance.

“| see,” Leslie responded without much expression, nodding slightly.

However, he felt a bit puzzled. Aurelia seemed quite confident about her schedule. She was going to present at his company on Monday and already knew she would be busy on Tuesday.

It was interesting because they didn’t communicate much. Yet neither had asked about each other’s plans for the next few days. Clearly, there was a time gap that went unnoticed.

Thinking about work reminded Aurelia of a question that had bothered her for a while.

“Mr. Synder, can | ask you something?”

“What is it?”

Seeing that the meal was tasty, Leslie didn’t seem as distant as he usually was.

She asked, “Today at the Crystal Hotel, they were discussing an acquisition deal. Why would a programmer like you be there?” When did a programmer's job scope include such diverse activities?

Leslie paused for a moment as he glanced at Aurelia. He saw nothing on her face but curiosity. She seemed genuinely puzzled.

“| was helping my boss deliver some documents.* “No wonder,” Aurelia chuckled. “So... Which one was your boss?”

The name “lan” referred to the One Technology CEO, was someone Aurelia heard almost every day. Aside from knowing his name, she had no idea what he looked like.

She was really curious about what kind of person would be hailed as a genius.

“He left as soon as the meeting was over. He had us wrap things up,” Leslie replied calmly.

“Well, your boss must value you a lot,” Aurelia said as she took a bite of her food.

What a pity. Aurelia had just scanned everyone she had seen in the meeting room earlier, trying to guess which one was lan. “Why? Are you interested in him?” Leslie’s tone turned colder, not very pleased with Aurelia’s distraction.

“No, no, even if | were, your boss likes men, and | can’t change my gender. On the contrary, you should be careful,” Aurelia started to go off-topic while chatting.

“Ahem, ahem.” Leslie almost choked on his food when he heard that.
