Chapter 110
Aurelia’s only experience with love was with a scumbag like Seth.
It was no wonder that she was just a fool in love despite her outstanding performance at work. As Leslie stared intently at Aurelia’s report, Daniel realized that it was no coincidence that Leslie had helped Aurelia at the hotel. Even instructing him to investigate Seth.
Once Daniel looked into it, Seth turned out to be Aurelia’s ex-boyfriend.
Although this was the first time Leslie showed interest in a woman, he had an obligation to warn Leslie as his exclusive assistant.
Aurelia’s situation was a bit complicated and she was not a suitable match for him.
“Mr. Synder, although Ms. Simmons is quite pitiful, her situation is rather complicated. Not only does she have a seriously ill mother, but she also has a horrible ex-boyfriend, Seth Martinez. You told me to look into him.
“According to my investigation, she wanted to borrow money from Seth because she struggles to pay the medical bills. Seth claimed to have no money but bought a new car to show off at her company.
“The most disgusting part is that he even intended to wait for Ms. Simmons’ mother to die and then seize the inheritance. After breaking up, he couldn’t rise in his career, so he kept harassing Ms. Simmons, making her the laughing stock of her firm.”
“The key thing is… Ms. Simmons is already married. However, the investigator couldn’t find out who her husband was. But, who her husband is doesn’t matter. Even if the husband
doesn’t know everything, he’s probably a useless man if he allows his wife to suffer this much.

Leslie narrowed his eyes on Daniel. He was the ‘useless man’ Daniel spoke of.
Daniel felt a chill down his spine. “Mr. Synder, what’s wrong?”
Leslie coldly said, “It seems that the investigator you found is not competent. Seth’s actions against Aurelia don’t constitute harassment. It’s clear this woman is enjoying it.”
Daniel noticed a strange tone in Leslie’s voice and continued, “That’s impossible. I think Ms. Simmons must deeply hate Seth. Because of the harassment, Seth was reported to the police by Ms. Simmons’ husband. He was arrested.”
“Seth’s mother barged into Ms. Simmons’ mother’s hospital room, causing trouble and forcing Ms. Simmons to reconcile with him. Otherwise, Seth would still be detained as we speak.”
“What did you say?” Leslie’s expression changed.
“It was written in the last line of the investigation report. Today is the day of Ms. Simmons’ mother’s surgery. Ms. Simmons would surely have a hard time if Seth’s mother got her mother killed, so she had to reconcile.”
Daniel tapped on the screen and read the last line of the text.
The time when Seth’s mother caused trouble in the hospital room coincided with the time he

received the text message from the police.
Leslie fell into deep thought, but Daniel continued to speak.
“Mr. Synder, there’s something rather strange. Ms. Simmons is an accomplished employee of Young Advertising, but she’s not on the list for this presentation. If she doesn’t

present the proposal?”
“She’s not on the list?” Leslie snapped back to reality.
come, who
He had seen Aurelia’s proposal. Anyone with some level of intelligence could tell that her proposal was the most suitable for One Technology.
Who else was going to present the idea, then?
Daniel tapped on his iPad and said, “The marketing director and…Kimberly Watson are coming instead. Isn’t this the woman who clung to Mr. Lynch? He said that Kimberly’s uncle has been wanting to work with us.”
Leslie recalled something and silently opened the proposal sent by Young Advertising.
It was indeed Aurelia’s proposal, yet the signature below was changed to Kimberly’s.
Instantly, he realized what had happened and stood abruptly.
“Go stall the people from Young Advertising. Wait until I get back.”
“Mr. Synder, where are you going?” Daniel asked.
“To handle some family affairs.”
Daniel was confused. Since when did his boss have family affairs to take care of?
Leslie strode toward the door and turned. “Daniel, find someone to give Seth’s company some trouble.”
“Yes, Mr. Synder.” Daniel was shocked. How did Seth angered his boss?
Leslie had just personally issued an order, to destroy Seth.
