Chapter 240 She checked the time and noticed it was almost ten. She could only hope that the restaurant was still open. She hurried to the door and Leslie looked up when he heard the noises she made. ” Are you going out?” “I lost the necklace you got me. Don’t worry, I’ll go find it,” she assured. “The restaurant closes at nine, so there’s no point in going now,” he said. “That necklace might be fake, but I can’t just lose it,” she said and went to change her shoes. Leslie paused. Fake? Why would he need to buy a fake necklace? He snapped out of it and felt curious when he saw the panicked state Aurelia was in. “Since it’s fake, just forget about it. Why are you panicking?“. “That’s a gift from you! I…” Aurelia froze and quieted down when she noticed Leslie’s intent gaze on her. “You liked that necklace?” he asked in a hoarse voice. Aurelia didn’t look up and simply nodded. After a few moments, she muttered, ” It looked like a real one.” Leslie felt both amused and resigned. It was a necklace that cost six figures, yet she said it looked like a real one. He wondered what she would say once she saw what was in his safe in the future. He paused. Why was he thinking about the future? Aurelia put on her shoes and apologized, “I should still go and check. What if they’ve kept it for me?” Leslie took out his phone and said calmly, “It’s fine. I’ll call the owner and he’ll keep it safe for you.” “You know the owner?” she exclaimed. “The boss does.‘ Leslie made the call and spoke briefly. The response from the other end was Chapter 240 immediately respectful and it almost sounded like Leslie was the boss in One Technology. After hanging up, Leslie said, “I’ve left your company’s address. Someone will deliver it tomorrow.” Aurelia was taken aback. “Deliver? Isn’t that inappropriate?” Leslie thought for a moment and said, “Maybe it’s to highlight their service. After all, their store caters to white–collar workers like you.” Aurelia considered it and found it reasonable. “Alright. I wonder if they’ll be furious when they find out it’s fake.” “You’ll find out tomorrow.” Leslie looked at her side profile, which was fair and delicate. Her long eyelashes cast shadows that made her especially charming. Realizing that he was staring at her, Leslie immediately snapped out of it. He felt as if there was something wrong with him, as he had been involuntarily paying attention to Aurelia lately. “It’s getting late. I’m going to bed. You should too.” “Alright.” Aurelia nodded and turned toward her room. “Aurelia, are you still sleeping in the master bedroom tonight?” he asked. Aurelia held the master bedroom doorknob and did a full spin on the spot before entering the guest room, scratching her head. “Good night,” she said. Leslie chuckled, feeling that life didn’t seem so dull anymore. As he was about to enter the room, his phone received a message with flight information. “Can you pick me up?” “I’m busy. I’ll arrange for someone else to pick you up.” Leslie replied. After sending the message, he acted as if nothing had happened and went straight into the room to rest.
