It’s not appropriate for a guy to do it,” Leslie explained. “Yeah.” Aurelia nodded. Though she wasn’t sure why she was feeling pleased about it. do?” Leslie asked. “What should] “Let’s rinse the rice, and let’s cook a bit extra. We have a lot of people today. They’re mostly guys, and they eat a lot,” Aurelia instructed. While Aurelia gave instructions and continued cooking, Leslie simply helped her on the side. Meanwhile, Cynthia, who already had her wound tended to, was desolately looking at the bandage. Then, during a water break, she slipped into the kitchen and peeked at Leslie amid the hustle and bustle. Leslie was wearing a red apron, and his slender fingers were weaving through the water as he rinsed the rice. Then, upon spotting Aurelia getting splashed with oil, he immediately shielded her with his hand. After that, Aurelia immediately looked at Leslie’s hand first. It seemed like there was no room for anyone else outside of themselves. Unable to bear witnessing this, Cynthia turned away and walked to the balcony. Just then, the sound of the door opening caught her attention. “You could’ve just given me a call,” Daniel said from a few steps away. Chapter 400 “I didn’t think about it. It happened so suddenly,” Cynthia calmly replied. “Ms. Whitlock, we’re all part of Mr. Synder’s team. We should have basic problem- solving skills,” Daniel said seriously. “What do you mean, Mr. Xenos?” Cynthia frowned. “Are you trying to suggest something? Why would I do it on purpose? I drove here for over an hour, and I ended up getting injured like this. Why would I do it for no reason?” “Ms. Whitlock, I’m just reminding you. But it might not be me next time. So, take care of yourself,” Daniel solemnly said. Cynthia lightly smiled and said, “Mr. Xenos, are those your words, or Mr. Synder’s? Or did Aurelia say something? I think there’s been a misunderstanding. I had no idea about your dinner gathering today.” Daniel glanced at her but didn’t say anything more. Then, he turned back to the room. Once Daniel left, Cynthia’s smile instantly disappeared as she gazed at the distant sun. She was born to be superior, so why should she compare herself to an ordinary woman like Aurelia? She was inherently more noble than Aurelia, so how could she possibly lose to her? To Cynthia, this matter wasn’t over yet. After a while, Aurelia opened the glass door and said, “Ms. Whitlock, it’s time to eat. Is your wound okay now?” “It’s fine. Leslie said… nothing,” Cynthia hesitated before limping closer to Aurelia. Meanwhile, Aurelia looked at Cynthia with some hesitation too and wondered what Leslie had told her. Then, Cynthia glanced at Aurelia and continued, “Ms. Simmons, let’s eat first. Thank you for helping entertain us today. “No problem.” Aurelia furrowed her brows, sensing something strange in Cynthia’s words. However, she couldn’t pinpoint what exactly was odd about them. Leslie and Aurelia had invited everyone for dinner, so it was natural to entertain their guests, right? What did Cynthia mean by “helping entertain” them? It made Aurelia feel like an outsider. Chapter 400 As Aurelia was still pondering about this, laughter came from the dining room, so she didn’t dwell on it and followed along too. “Just some simple food, folks, don’t mind. Dig in,” Aurelia said, “No, we’ve been craving this for so long. Thanks a lot, Ms. Simmons.” “Don’t mention it. Enjoy your meal. And if it’s not enough, there’s more in the fridge,” Aurelia said. Immediately, everyone started heartily digging in. After a while, Jessica stood up and said, “I’m going to the rest room. But after she left, Aurelia realized that she’d forgotten to tell her where the restroom was. Then, Jessica walked inside and pushed open Leslie’s room. Immediately, she burst into laughter. Meanwhile, the other colleagues looked puzzled and asked, “What’s so funny? What’s made you so happ?” Please request for new novels here and join our reddit group..thanks.. Reddit
