Once Aurelia became vice director, the boss would surely train her to take his place.
He was middle–aged now, so getting fired would be extremely terrible.
He sighed. “Go ahead and tell me what you’re planning.”
Kimberly leaned closer to him. “I just need you to stall for time until I get off work…”
Zachary nodded. “Alright. Make sure you make no mistakes this time.”
“Don’t worry, Mr. Zeller. I have a secret weapon.” Kimberly smirked slyly.
“Let’s go.” He nodded and led her upstairs.
As soon as Aurelia stepped into the office, she found everyone staring at her like she was a stranger.
“Aurelia… Is that you?” the receptionist asked.
“Yes. What’s wrong?” she asked in confusion.
“It’s nothing.” The receptionist shook her head.
Aurelia didn’t pay much mind to it. She assumed that they were just surprised because she rarely dressed like this.
“Is the boss in his office?” she asked.
“He’s meeting with an important client, so he has said that no one should disturb him,” the receptionist said, her gaze fixed on Aurelia.
Aurelia frowned, realizing that she had to wait a while longer.
She turned and walked toward the office, overhearing the hushed conversation behind her.
“Did you see Aurelia? She’s actually really pretty. Why did she dress herself so poorly before?”
“Oh my goodness, I almost thought I was seeing things just now! With her looks and figure, she’s even more attractive than Kimberly. But she usually dresses like she’s 35!”
Aurelia paused, feeling like they were being overly dramatic.
What she used to wear were just normal work clothes, right?
Nevertheless, hearing others complimenting her was rather pleasing.
When she entered the office, she saw that there were people from other departments inside.
They surrounded Millie, praising her beauty. Millie had a radiant smile on her face.
She had mentioned in the group chat that morning that the clothes and bag she had on were gifts from a pursuer. Within half a day, said pursuer had become her boyfriend.

Watching her revel in her self–satisfaction, Aurelia felt at a loss,
Initially, she didn’t want to get involved in these matters. However, Kimberly suddenly stood up and clapped her hands.
“Oh, Aurelia is back.”
At the sound of Kimberly’s voice, the people who were originally focused on Millie turned around and looked at Aurelia in shock.
This was the first time that Aurelia was the focus of so many people, and she got goosebumps.
One of them said, “A–Aurelia?”
“That’s me.” Aurelia smiled awkwardly.
She had just changed her clothes, so why did it seem like she had changed her whole identity?
“Aurelia, you look… so beautiful. You seem like a completely different person now,” someone exclaimed.
“Thank you,” Aurelia replied politely.
“Yeah, why didn’t I notice that you have such a great figure before?”
“I really don’t,” Aurelia denied uncomfortably.
“Aurelia, you’re so fair. How do you maintain such a nice complexion? Your skin practically looks like vanilla ice–cream.”
“No, the dress just compliments my skin. Anyone would look fair in it,” Aurelia said modestly.
“Aurelia, you’ve always had your hair up in a bun. This is the first time I’ve seen you with your hair down. What shampoo do you use? Your hair is so silky. Where did you get it permed? It looks so naturally fluffy.”
“My hair has always been naturally curly, ever since I was a child.” Aurelia helplessly moved her hair
behind her back.
Unexpectedly, a few of them moved from Millie’s side to hers. They casually touched her skin and hair without giving her a chance to escape.
One sharp–eyed colleague glanced at Aurelia’s dress and exclaimed, “Wow! Aurelia, did you hit the jackpot or something? You’re actually wearing Mulan’s embroidered dress!”
Aurelia instantly fell silent.
