Chapter 223

Leslie continued driving, and Aurelia’s topic shifted from the luxury car to their destination.

Forty minutes later, they arrived at a small exhibition hall housed in an old factory building.

Inside, it showcased the development history of Seacester over the years.

Aurelia recognized the place because the previous owner, who used to run a factory, had approached

them for a promotional event.

However, due to the low budget, no one in the company wanted to take it on.

Aurelia was just an intern at the time and reluctantly accepted the challenge.

Unexpectedly, the event turned out to be highly successful.

The products were of high quality and reasonably priced, which resulted in a sharp increase in sales.

Eventually, the factory manager moved to a new location. To express his gratitude, he gave Aurelia a

generous bonus and promised to help her whenever she was in need.

That was why Aurelia brought Leslie here.

The surroundings exuded a robust atmosphere, giving off a mechanical vibe, enhanced by the

preservation of the old machinery.

It was a perfect mix of the past and present.

Aurelia wanted to ask for Leslie’s opinion. But as she turned, she saw Leslie standing under an

imposing giant crane.

With the sunset casting a fiery halo behind him, he looked breathtakingly beautiful.

“What are you looking at?” Leslie strode over.

“Nothing,” she said.

Snapping out of it, she calmed her racing heart.

Fortunately, the factory manager arrived.

After Aurelia explained the purpose of their visit, the factory manager immediately agreed and

exchanged business cards with Leslie.

With the venue secured, Aurelia sighed a breath of relief and immediately called Zachary to report the

situation.

“You found it? Where?” Zachary asked in disbelief.

“It’s at…”

Before Aurelia could disclose the address, Leslie took her phone.

“Mr. Zeller, I’m from One Technology. We have accompanied Ms. Simmons in selecting a new venue.

We are satisfied with the one chosen this time. If your company allows others to disrupt the plan again,

we will pursue breach of contract penalties.”

Leslie remained emotionless, and his tone was extremely harsh, but there was an unmistakable

authority in his words.

Zachary was taken aback and hastily said, “Sir, you misunderstood. It was Aurelia who …”

Leslie interrupted him.

“Do you really believe our boss would let the matter slide if the venue is taken from us without any

investigation?”

Zachary immediately fell silent.

Leslie warned, “Mr. Zeller, one should be more careful with securing their positions when they are

already in their fifties. Don’t lose sight of your responsibility over certain people.”

Aurelia couldn’t help but break into a sweat for Leslie.

Would Zachary be provoked into filing a complaint with One Technology?

She didn’t know what Zachary said in the end, but judging from Leslie’s expression, the matter was

resolved.

Kimberly would definitely not dare to come and snatch the venue again.

“Your boss looked into it?” she asked.

“No. I was just bluffing. People who are guilty can’t stand being questioned,” Leslie said.

Aurelia looked at him in surprise.

It seemed like any issue could be easily resolved when Leslie handled them.

“What are you looking at? Let’s head back.” He glanced at his watch.

“Sure.” She turned around happily but was soon held in place by her collar

She looked up and saw Leslie staring down at her with resignation.

“Aurelia, you really have no sense of direction.”

“Did… did I go the wrong way again? That’s the exit, right?”

“Turn left.” He pointed at another exit.

“They look the same. It’s not my fault.” Aurelia found an excuse stubbornly.

“Makes sense,” he said casually, but there seemed to be a smile on his face.

Aurelia combed her hair and hurried in the other direction.

By the time they were home, Linda had already cooked a full-course meal.

“Welcome home. Come sit down. I’ve been slaving away for the entire afternoon. This is definitely

perfect,” Linda said.

Aurelia glanced at the table and the impressive-looking dishes.

It was hard to imagine that Linda almost burned the kitchen down the day before.

“Mom, you’re amazing,” she said.

“Of course. Come try it.” Linda pulled them over to sit down.

Aurelia was about to start eating when Leslie gave her a pointed look.

“What’s wrong?” she asked.

“Do you really have faith in her cooking skills?” he asked.

“It’s fine even if it’s not that tasty. This is Mom’s way of taking care of us. As long as it’s edible, it should

be fine.”
