Chapter 266
Aurelia was momentarily stunned.
The sudden concern from her boss made her feel a bit overwhelmed.
She quickly shook her head.
“No, no, I’m fine.”
“I knew I didn’t misjudge you. You’re the most outstanding member of our marketing department. Go home early and rest today,” the boss said with a smile.
Alright.” Aurelia didn’t refuse.
After all, she had another matter to attend to.
Aurelia glanced at Leslie and they prepared to leave.
However, Kimberly’s indignant voice sounded behind them.
“Boss, this whole thing is entirely caused by Aurelia. Why should we be frightened while she gets to leave early?”
The boss glared angrily at Kimberly as his patience for her ran thin.
“This is clearly a plot by Millie. I announce that Millie is officially fired. We must not let any employee suffer unjustly. Kimberly, be mindful of your words. Otherwise, you won’t like what happens next.”
Previously, he had turned a blind eye to her actions because of her uncle’s influence.
However, if she dared to cause trouble again, she would experience a similar fate to Millie.
The boss’s words declared the end of Kimberly’s special treatment and privilege.
The looks toward Kimberly changed.
It now contains disdain and mockery. Gloating over her current situation.
Kimberly felt utterly embarrassed.
She glared at Aurelia in disbelief.
Ignoring her, Aurelia walked directly toward the exit.
As Leslie passed by the boss, he cast a glance and conveyed a clear message to the boss.
Once Aurelia and Leslie left, the boss wiped his sweat and left the office.
Zachary followed him in confusion and asked, “Boss, why did you spare Aurelia? She’s been getting out of hand and having someone like her around will only…”
“Shut up! You are supposed to be in the marketing department, yet you can’t even tell which

employee is actually valuable. You almost got me killed, do you know that?”
Thinking back to the look in Leslie’s eyes, the boss felt terrified.
“oss, what do you mean? Why would Aurella be valuable?” Zachary mocked.
“Zachary, do not pick on Aurelia ever again or I will make you pay!”
With that, the boss stormed off.
Zachary was baffled.
Kimberly, who was eavesdropping, dug her nails into the wall.
How could Aurelia possibly measure up to her?

As Aurelia and Leslie went downstairs, they ran into a janitor.
The janitor frowned.
“Aurelia, have you been having a hard time?”
Confused, Aurelia asked, “What’s wrong?”
“I ran into your friend, Millie, just now. She was hiding in one of the trash bins and when I asked her about it, she said that you got a loan and the creditors were coming after her as well,” the janitor said with resignation.
Aurelia’s expression darkened. “Did she really say that?”
The janitor nodded.
“Yeah. Don’t be reckless. Shark loans are terrifying.”
“It’s just a misunderstanding. I didn’t get a loan. Don’t worry,” Aurelia explained.
The janitor felt relieved and left, yet Aurelia remained frozen in place.
“What are you thinking about?” Leslie asked.
“Mr. Synder, can you send me to the police station?” she said with determination.
“What are you going to do?”
“Millie still has my ID and I don’t want her to do anything else with it.”
“Let’s go then,” he said.
