Married in a Flash Embarking on the Journey to Wealth

Chapter 321

Cynthia hesitated momentarily.

She had never told Eva that the man she secretly loved was Leslie, the brilliant young man who had made a name for himself abroad.

She wanted Leslie all to herself.

Whenever Eva asked, she would simply say he was a decent–looking colleague.

Eva was accustomed to seeing handsome men and beautiful women in the fashion industry, so she

had become numb to them.

She often advised Cynthia not to lose sight of the bigger picture for the sake of one man.

Cynthia never listened. Eva couldn’t understand the benefit of becoming Leslie’s girlfriend or wife.

Aside from Leslie himself, there was his vast business empire.

Cynthia believed she was the only one worthy of him because they were in sync at work, shared the

same ideas, and made decisions together.

With such harmony, why couldn’t they be together?

Cynthia felt it was only a matter of time before they were.

She refrained from revealing Leslie’s true identity to Eva, fearing she wouldn’t lend her a helping

hand.

“He’s a young and promising developer at One Technology. With One Technology thriving in Seacester, no one dares to offend him,” she said casually.

This wasn’t entirely a lie, as Leslie had asked everyone to keep his identity secret.
