Chapter 6

This proposal was crucial for Aurelia, concerning her promotion and salary increase, and influencing her and her mother’s future.

Despite being married to Leslie, judging by his attitude, she had to plan for her future.

Hesitation aside, Aurelia didn’t care whether she was familiar with Leslie.

After all, clients went from being unfamiliar to familiar, right?

She opened Leslie’s WhatsApp.

“Mr. Leslie, are you busy?”

The message seemed to vanish into a black hole with no response in sight. Leslie might be occupied.

Half an hour later, Aurelia sent another message.

“Mr. Leslie, are you at One Technology?”

The message was accompanied by a picture of Leslie’s employee ID.

A minute later, Leslie’s reply appeared on the screen, still concise.

“What’s the matter?”

“Do you know your boss’s preferences? Like, what he likes and dislikes.”

Aurelia was straightforward to avoid wasting Leslie’s time.

“Are you interested in our boss?” Leslie’s reply came after another long minute.

“Yeah.”

Who wouldn’t be interested in the boss?

After waiting another lengthy minute, Leslie replied, “He doesn’t like someone like you.”

Huh? Aurelia stared at the chat, momentarily confused.

What did he mean by “someone like her“? Just as she was contemplating, she caught her reflection on the glass window.

Suddenly, she understood Leslie’s implication. Her most prominent feature was probably… being a woman.

“I got it.”

“Leslie replied with ellipses.

“Don’t worry. I won’t casually!
