Chapter 176

Leslie tried to close his eyes.

After a few seconds, he furrowed his brows and lifted his blanket.

He then got out of bed and headed to the bathroom.

Soon, the sound of water running echoed from the bathroom,

The next morning, Aurelia opened her eyes and picked up her phone.

She noticed a message from Leslie. “Something came up at the company. See you at the restaurant at

noon.”

“Alright,” she replied.

She didn’t need to prepare breakfast or lunch, so Aurelia stayed in bed until ten.

After getting up, she started to dress herself.

She didn’t know how to put on makeup, so she just applied a bit of foundation and lipstick.

But when she looked at herself in the mirror, she was shocked.

A fair-skinned, striking beauty stared back at her through the reflection.

Colleagues used to describe her as mature and reliable, which also meant she was rather old-

fashioned.

Now, she realized that she wouldn’t lose to anyone else.

She smiled at herself in the mirror, then turned and left the room.

Aurelia took a taxi to the restaurant called the Blue Train.

Taking in the exterior decorations, she was taken aback.

It was a luxurious European style restaurant.

She wondered to herself if she could afford to eat here.

Regardless, she had promised Leslie to treat him, so she could only bite the bullet and went in.

“Miss, do you have a reservation?”

“It’s under Mr. Synder,” Aurelia said.

The waiter tapped on a screen, looked at Aurelia, then looked at the name on the

Meanwhile, Aurelia cautiously took her seat.

Well-dressed gentlemen around her greeted her with polite smiles, and she responded graciously.

She took out her phone to ask Leslie where he was. However, before she could finish typing, someone

approached her.

“Aurelia? Is it really you?”

Millie only believed it was Aurelia when she saw her face up close.

Wasn’t she supposed to be out with her husband for a casual meal?

Aurelia was slightly surprised to see Millie.

Her surprise lessened when she turned and saw Kimberly along with some colleagues.

Aurelia nodded. “Yes, what a coincidence.”

Millie glanced at the people in the VIP section.

Each one of them were successful figures in high society.

What made her even more uncomfortable was how Aurelia fitted in perfectly.

Just half a month ago, they were sharing the same takeout meal.

She raised her voice and said, “Aurelia, it’s your first time here so you might not know this is the VIP

section. The minimum spending in this area is different. You should leave quickly, or you might not

have enough money to pay the bill later.”

The crowd turned their gazes to them.

Aurelia didn’t care for a friendly conversation. She no longer considered Millie her friend.

“The waiter brought me in. He has the information concerning all appointments. Do you really think he

would bring me to the wrong seat? You of all people should know better who can’t afford to dine here.”

“Why you…Aurelia, I’m just saying this for your own good. Know your place. Don’t make us donate

money to you. This isn’t the first time,” Millie said.

Millie was talking about the time when Kimberly initiated a donation to Aurelia.

However, Aurelia found an excuse to return all the money soon after that.

She had forgotten about it and didn’t expect Millie to use this against her.

“What’s wrong? Did you not receive the refund I made? I can call the bank and

ask about it right now.”

Millie’s expression darkened and she gritted out, “Alright, then. Sit here if that’s what you want. Let’s

hope you don’t get kicked out.”

“Don’t worry. Do remember to return that hundred dollars you borrowed,

though. After all, I’m someone who needs donations.”

Millie tensed and left in defeat as the crowd watched her.

Aurelia had never felt better. Confronting people not worthy of her kindness didn’t seem so bad after all.

She finally stopped blaming herself and started ignoring what others thought.

It was liberating.

She lowered her head and continued to text Leslie. “Have you arrived?”

“I’m parking the car,” he replied.
