Chapter 9
Leslie expected to find his house in a mess the way Daniel had left it, but a subtle scent of lemon greeted him.
In the entrance, men’s and women’s shoes were neatly arranged.
The rest of the house was immaculately clean as if all the chaos had never occurred.
If he hadn’t seen the photos Daniel took, he would have wondered if this was his house. Aurelia had managed to clean up everything.
At that moment, the door to the master bedroom opened.
Aurelia, wrapped in a towel, walked out.
Her slender figure caught Leslie’s eye.
With semi–dried strands of hair sticking to her blushing face, she exuded an indescribable sense of endearment, much more beautiful than her usual well–behaved appearance.
Water droplets fell from her hair. Her skin glistened, revealing straight legs, snow–white and slightly pink from the warm bath. The effect was particularly alluring.
Leslie’s breath hitched as he narrowed his eyes.
Aurelia, tilting her head while drying her hair, only noticed the unfamiliar gaze when she raised her head..
The two locked eyes. She hastily tightened the towel around her.
Didn’t Linda say Leslie wouldn’t come back if he worked late?
She was just lazy and didn’t bother to grab her pajamas.
This was just unfortunate timing.
“You, you’re back?”
“I thought you left. Didn’t expect you to be so patient.”
Leslie withdrew his gaze, turned around, and poured a glass of water. His voice was still as cold as ever, even carrying a hint of disdain.
Glancing at the master bedroom behind Aurelia, he made it clear that it was his room.
Aurelia, following his gaze toward the master bedroom, immediately understood the misunderstanding.
“Mr. Synder…”
“Ms. Simmons, we should understand that this marriage is a mutual arrangement, so don’t overstep any boundaries.”
Leslie emphasized the last five words.
Already feeling somewhat embarrassed, Aurelia became even more ashamed when Leslie misunderstood her intentions.
