Chapter 20

After tasting the pasta, Leslie surprisingly felt his stomach rumble with hunger.

He thought that Aurelia, being a materialistic woman, wouldn’t be good at cooking. But actually, her cooking was quite good.

After finishing the pasta, Aurelia took the dishes back to the kitchen and then poured a glass of water for Leslie.

“Take the pill first, then have a sip of cough syrup before bed. Don’t drink water for half an hour after the syrup, or it won’t work. That should help you sleep more comfortably tonight.

“Alright.”

Leslie paused as he looked at the pill and warm water handed to him. He seemed lost in thought.

While drinking water, he took a moment to glance at Aurelia. She was smiling softly, making her look really amiable.

She then said. “Mr. Synder, go to bed early after taking the medicine. Work is important, but not as important as your health”

After saying this, she realized she might have spoken too much. She quickly changed the subject and said. “I’m going to wash the dishes”

She then headed into the kitchen.
