Chapter 376
As more and more of Eva’s past bullying incidents came to light, information about her parents was also uncovered, and this reportedly started affecting their careers too.
Just then, someone noticed that Eva’s verification as the IN fashion director had disappeared.
It looked like she might’ve lost her job.
But who was Eva’s bestie? And why wasn’t anyone talking about her?
Aurelia flipped through a couple of pages, but she shrugged it off when she didn’t see anyone mention this.
Although, she did feel a bit nostalgic about it all.
“Who would’ve thought that someone like Eva used to be a spoiled rich kid? No wonder her gaze felt so familiar. I’ve been through this kind of stuff in high school,” Aurelia
reflected out loud.
“What kind of stuff?” Leslie asked.
“It’s when a girl gives you a hard time for no reason. For example, she picks on you. But forget it. You’re good–looking and smart–like the school’s popular kid–so nobody should mess with you.”
“My classmates were older than me, so they weren’t really into messing with me,” Leslie said as he kept the laptop.
“Why? Did you go to school at an early age or something? But even if you did, they’d only be a year or two older than you, right?” Aurelia asked, surprised.
During her schooling days, there were quite a few classmates who were a year older than her, but none of them stood out to her as particularly mature.
Then, Leslie stood up and looked down at Aurelia. “I skipped grades.”
Aurelia remained silent.
She basically embarrassed herself!
Leslie skipped grades at Seacester’s youth class! So basically, when his peers were in middle school, Leslie was probably already in college.
Aurelia remembered her middle school days where she’d pulled all–nighters for three math exams.
Meanwhile, Leslle might’ve already been working on his papers.
Leslie’s cold stares finally made sense to Aurella.
Was that the look for someone he considered a fool?
Awkwardly, Aurelia chuckled and quickly looked at her phone, ending the conversation.
Fortunately, Megan approached them at that moment and asked Aurelia to sign somet documents.
It gave her a chance to break free from Leslie’s gaze.
“The next step will be to just follow the procedure. It might take two or three months, but just make sure you find a good lawyer,” Megan advised Aurelia.
“Okay, got it,” Aurelia replied.
Then, after she signed the documents, the four subway guys happened to walk out as well. However, their faces turned pale at the sight of Aurelia.
But Aurella didn’t want to bother with them. After all, the evidence was conclusive, so she would simply follow the procedure on what to do next.
But just as she turned to leave, a woman wearing a hat and carrying a child in her arms rushed straight toward her.
Her name was Ann Grayson.
Aurelia felt nervous watching Ann wobble as she rushed over with the child. But fortunately, Leslie acted quickly and grabbed Ann’s arm to prevent the child from falling.
Aurelia then glanced over to Ann and saw that the child in her arms was a newborn. What’s more, Ann’s appearance suggested that she hadn’t fully recovered from childbirth.
Then, without saying a word, Ann looked at Aurelia and prepared to kneel down.
She said, “Ms. Simmons, I’m begging you, please let my husband go. Our baby was just born. If something happens to him, what will we do?”
John Goode, one of the four men, rushed over and grabbed Ann’s hand, completely Ignoring her unrecovered body and their baby in her arms.
Chapter 376
“Get up! What are you doing? If anyone outside catches wind and shares this online, I’ll be the butt of the joke,” John scolded.
Ann paled as she looked at John in disbelief. “Did you even realize that you’d gotten fired by the company because of this?”
“So what?” John seemed unaware of his mistake.
Aurelia glanced at John in disbelief.
Despite having seen Ann on her knees pleading, he showed no sign of remorse or guilt. And instead, he was actually blaming her.
Then, upon closer inspection, she realized that John was the same guy from the subway station that tried to take advantage of her.
So, he was definitely not a good guy.
Ann staggered at John’s words, her arms almost giving way, and the baby nearly slipping
from them.
Luckily, Aurelia reached out and caught the baby. She then angrily glared at John. “Let her go!‘
