Chapter 151

Leslie’s gaze sharpened. He wondered if his mother had told Aurelia about his true identity.

“What else could I be?” he asked coldly.

Aurelia didn’t sense anything odd. After all, Leslie had always been cold and distant.

“Maybe a businessman. You’re just as cunning as one,” Aurelia replied with an awkward laugh. “A cunning businessman, huh?”

Leslie put down his cup and wiped his hands.

Aurelia chuckled but eventually quieted down, realizing that it had been a bad joke. “Sorry.”

“If I’m a cunning businessman, what does that make you? A cunning businessman’s wife?” he asked.

Aurelia was unsure of how to react to this.

Leslie wiped his mouth and changed the subject. “I’m done eating. It’s settled then. You don’t have to worry about anything. Just be yourself on Friday.”

Aurelia nodded. “Thank you. Sorry for troubling you.”
