Chapter 328
Kimberly gasped. Even though she had seen a lot of money, it was her uncle who was rich. She simply benefitted from that.
Even people as rich as Jackson would never spend millions of dollars.
Kimberly straightened her back as she didn’t want to be looked down on. “Ms. Hanks, why are you showing me this?”
“I’m reminding you to stay out of the way. If this is broken or lost, it’s going to be a big deal,” said Eva.
Kimberly immediately understood what she meant. “Thank you for the reminder, Ms.
Hanks.
“You are quite smart, Ms. Watson.” Eva put on her sunglasses again to hide the contempt in her eyes.
It was a good thing that she didn’t have to get her hands dirty. With Kimberly’s help, the matter would be settled.
Aurelia arrived at the hotel and saw the manager of the hotel standing outside, waiting
for someone.
Two cars approached and stopped outside the entrance. The manager went up to open the door with a grin. “Mr. Synder, Mr. Synder, welcome,” he greeted.
Aurelia froze in shock when she saw Leon.
Leon was dressed in a dark blue suit. With a gentle smile on his face, he looked every bit the elegant young master from a prominent family.
However, Aurelia had felt the piercing gaze from Leon before. She knew he was far more complicated than he appeared to be.
With that in mind, Aurelia’s gaze shifted past Leon to the middle–aged man in front of
him.
He was the CEO of the Synder family, Jared Synder. He had a dignified presence, with sharp eyes and a shrewd demeanor.
Even with Leon standing beside him, Jared seemed to overshadow him.
Chapter 325
For some reason, Aurelia felt a strange familiarity when she looked at Jared. On top of that, Leon and Jared did not look like father and son at all. Leon also didn’t seem to
inherit Leslie’s charisma.
Amid her thoughts, Aurelia felt a gaze on her. She followed the feeling and realized that Leon had spotted her. She ducked behind a nearby potted plant.
Meanwhile, Jared noticed Leon’s distraction and cleared his throat. “What are you looking at?”
Leon shook his head. “Nothing.”
“Focus on the meeting today and don’t embarrass our family again,” Jared said sternly.
“Okay, Dad,” Leon said respectfully and kept his head down. Jared strode into the hotel after saying that
Leon glanced in Aurelia’s direction, only to find that she had quietly slipped away.
Aurelia had ignored him again.
Leon thought Aurelia was quite an interesting woman. Once they were done dealing with One Technology, he would spend some time getting to know her better.
Meanwhile, Aurelia had already sneaked into the elevator, but she couldn’t figure out why the twitching of her eyelid grew more intense. It seems she had to do a set of eye exercises to calm them down.
Aurelia soon reached the top floor, but before she could even steady herself, Kimberly pulled her aside.
“Aurelia, what took you so long? Are you trying to make us wait for you?” Kimberly questioned.
“We agreed to meet here at nine, and it’s only five minutes to nine now. I’m not late,”
Aurelia retorted.
“Forget it. Ms. Hanks said she wouldn’t talk to us unless you apologize to her,” Kimberly said as she pointed to where Eva stood.
