Chapter 273
“You!”
The man was furious.
“What? You’re a grown man here to trouble an elderly lady. What kind of man are you? If you have the guts, go ask the police whether it’s her family upbringing that caused her actions. Would you dare to
face!” do that? Your gut is as useless as the foundation on your
Aurelia had interacted with many clients.
Although she wouldn’t argue with them, she had acquired a diverse vocabulary.
Today, it came in handy to her surprise.
The man was left speechless, unable to utter a word.
After struggling for a while, he only managed to say one thing, “I’ll expose you! You don’t look like a good person anyway.”
Saying this, several people took out their phones and started filming Aurelia.
Aurelia pointed to the entrance.
“Mr. Synder, have you been recording?”
Only then did these people realize that a tall man had been filming them with his phone.
He then made an OK gesture.
Startled, they rushed over to grab Leslie’s phone.
Still, they were no match for Leslie, beating them all with just one hand.
They all ended up on the floor.
Leslie closed the door.
He looked down at the people on the ground, and said coldly, “This person in bed just had heart. If surgery and hasn’t completely recovered. You disturbed the patient by coming in a big group. anything happens to the patient, you’ll be held responsible. None of you will escape.”
Hearing that, the group could no longer remain smug and all scrambled out of the ward.
Mrs. Parker wiped away her tears and sat on the chair, looking numb.
“How did it come to this? How did it come to this?”
“Mrs. Parker, it’s not your fault,” Aurelia consoled.
Tears flowed down as Mrs. Parker grabbed Aurelia’s hand.

“Aurelia, the police called. I’m really sorry. I didn’t know Millle would do such a thing.”
“Mrs. Parker…”
Before Aurelia could finish her sentence, Mrs. Parker suddenly knelt down.
Aurelia was startled and stood to the side to support Mrs. Parker.
“Aurelia! I’m begging you! Can you please not report Millie? We’ll repay the money. We’ll definitely repay it. We won’t get you involved. If you report her, she would be doomed.
Mrs. Parker even tried to bow her head.
Aurelia squatted down and held her hands firmly.
“Mrs. Parker, I’m sorry. I’ve warned Millie many times. She keeps challenging my boundaries. If she isn’t punished, she’ll continue to make mistakes.”
“Aurelia…”
Mrs. Parker tried to speak but remembered that Aurelia had just helped her get out of trouble.
She couldn’t say anything else and could only sob.
Aurelia remained gentle with her and held her close.
At this moment, a call came from the police station.
Aurelia glanced at the number and stepped out of the ward before answering it.
“Ms. Simmons, we have Millie Parker here. Please come to the station and discuss how you want to proceed with the case.”
“Sure. I’ll be right over.”
After hanging up, Aurelia realized that Leslie had come outside.
“I told her that we have something to do and we need to leave. She also needs time to think about what she wants to do.”
Aurelia nodded.
“The police are asking me to head over to the station.”
Sensing her hesitation, he asked, “What would you like to do?”
He assumed that Aurelia felt sorry and wanted to let Millie go.
After all, Aurelia looked extremely sympathetic when she was consoling Mrs. Parker.
Though Leslie was quite annoyed by this, he didn’t interfere as empathy was a normal thing.
Aurelia was still inexperienced in stuff like this, so it was normal for her to waver.
Aurelia raised her fingers.

“Who’s going to pay her debt if she goes to jail? She only has 180 thousand in her frozen bank account. and she spent everything else. Even though the law doesn’t recognize shark loans, she still needs to
back what she borrowed. What would happen if they can’t find her and come to the two of us pay instead?”
