Chapter 207
Since everyone already found out Leslie was her husband, Aurelia felt that there was no point in hiding it.
“We’re just walking around,” she said.
The colleague nodded, her eyes still fixated on Leslie.
Leslie looked handsome even in the blurry photo from the office group chat.
He looked even more dazzling in person.
Throughout her years of worshiping different celebrities, she could confidently say that no celebrity
could rival Leslie.
He had the perfect figure, looks, and demeanor.
Having such a man by one’s side would truly be flattering.
It was no wonder that Kimberly would rather lie and say that this man was her boyfriend.
She would’ve done the same as well.
Leslie sensed the colleague’s stare on him and his expression darkened.
Worried he may get upset, Aurelia immediately blocked the colleague’s gaze.
“We won’t disturb you anymore. We’ll be going now.’
“Don’t go. Since we ran into one another, we might as well shop together.”
The colleague squeezed into the gap between Aurelia and Leslie, before looking up at Leslie with a
smile.
“Hey, handsome. You wouldn’t mind, right? I know this area well.”
Aurelia frowned at how awkward the situation was.
She was about to stop her colleague when Leslie looked down coldly.
“I mind.”
“W… What?” the colleague asked in shock.
“I said I mind,” he repeated.
The colleague froze in place and Leslie pulled Aurelia away.
Aurelia had no option but to turn and shout, “We will get going now.”
The colleague glared at Aurelia and scoffed.
She then took out her phone and snapped a photo of Aurelia with the flower basket, before sending it
to the group chat.

“I ran into Aurelia and her husband. Her husband is super handsome in person. She’s such a lucky woman. He even got her flowers.” She wrote.
She had followed Kimberly for a while and learned a lot from her.
With just one sentence, it instantly awakened the resting crowd on the weekend.
Aurelia took out her phone as it kept vibrating.
She looked at the photos and message and furrowed her brow.
“What’s wrong?” Leslie asked.
“Take a look.” Aurelia raised her phone.
“The photo isn’t so bad.” Leslie nodded.
The photo showed Leslie from behind and Aurelia in a white long dress.
She was holding an exquisite and petite flower basket that amplified her charm.
Indeed, it was well taken.
“Mr. Synder, I’m talking about her text, not the photo,” Aurelia said with resignation.
Only then did Leslie notice the message below.
But, before he could finish reading, other messages came in and flooded the group chat.
“The flower basket looks pretty good, but… a grown man giving fake flowers probably doesn’t take his wife seriously, right?”
“Being handsome doesn’t cut it either. If my husband gave me fake flowers, I’ll make him suffer.”
“When Seth and Aurelia were together, he at least gave her real flowers. Now, she’s getting fake flowers after getting married. Are they really that poor?”
At this point, Millie joined in.
“Actually, fake flowers are not bad. After all, Aurelia’s husband still has to repay the mortgage, and his salary is just average.”
“Buying fake flowers means he never has to buy them for a lifetime. It’s pretty cost-effective. My boyfriend only knows how to waste money.”
Accompanying the text was a picture of Jackson giving Millie ninety-nine roses.
“When Aurelia and Seth were together, Seth even treated us to supper. After getting married, her husband doesn’t do it. Doesn’t that say something?” Millie typed.
“@Aurelia, Did you two not have a wedding banquet?”
“@Aurelia, let’s go out for a meal together. We can help you keep an eye on him.”

Aurelia didn’t expect them to apply the same set of comments used on Kimberly to her.
She quickly retrieved her phone and awkwardly looked at Leslie.
“Mr. Synder, don’t take it to heart. They’re just joking.”
“Mm.’
