Chapter 86
Evelyn gave her a dour once–over.
So, that was why she had the nerve to confront her. Because she had Arnold, her backer, right?
“Arnold is quite the ladies‘ man. Everyone in the circle knows. He changes girlfriends more often than
he changes his shirts. Manager Aurelia, if you’re planning on becoming his wife, it won’t be that easy.”
Aurelia took a bite of foie gras, and then she turned to Elowen, asking pointedly, “Ms. Elowen, do you
think Arnold could cheat on someone?”
“I haven’t heard anything about that.” Elowen shook her head.
“Would he keep lingering feelings for an ex?”
“No, Arnold always cuts clean every time.”
“Does he have any old flame he can’t forget?”
“Of course not. He hates the idea of an old flame.” Elowen gritted her teeth at this.
Aurelia shrugged, “Then, I have nothing to worry about. We are all adults, as long as we are honest
and sincere when we are dating, even if we break up, there’s nothing to regret.”
As she spoke, an icy glint flashed in Leopold’s eyes. His anger swelled like a hot air balloon, almost
bursting
at the seams.
“Once you’ve finished eating, you can leave!”
Aurelia glanced at her plate. She still had a big piece of steak left.
“Mr. Leopold, I haven’t finished eating yet. If I don’t eat enough, I’ll get hungry in the afternoon, and if
I’m hungry I won’t be able to focus on work. Plus, the food here is expensive, we shouldn’t waste it.”
She said this very seriously.
Leopold was speechless with rage, almost wanting to drag her out and shut her up so she couldn’t utter
a single syllable.
Evelyn was stunned. Was this woman truly naive, or pretending to be? Couldn’t she tell that Leo was
annoyed and wanted her to leave?
“Manager Aurelia, Leo prefers to dine in peace. If you haven’t finished, you can take the rest back to
the office.”
Beat it!
Aurelia muttered in her heart, but her face still wore a smile. “The steak isn’t as good when it’s cold.
Let’s all keep quiet and let Ms. Elowen accompany Mr. Leopold in peace. After all, they are childhood
sweethearts. and practically a couple.”
Evelyn nearly choked. She realized that this woman was most likely bribed by Elowen, deliberately
staying here to cause trouble.
Elowen laughed. Aurelia’s words were like a breath of spring air to her, extremely comforting.
“Leopold, let me cut your steak for you.”
Leopold had lost all his appetite, only wishing to give the woman across from him a lesson.
He grabbed the wine glass next to him, downed it in one gulp, and then stood up. “I’m full. You guys
continue.”
“But you haven’t eaten anything yet.” Elowen hurriedly said.
“Kevin will settle the bill later.” Leopold coldly replied, turned around, and walked out, leaving a trail of
icy air.
As soon as he left, Elowen and Evelyn also couldn’t sit still and quickly followed. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
Aurelia pursed her lips, unhurriedly continuing her meal.
She still had to wait for Kevin to pay the bill.
Otherwise, she would go bankrupt.
Soon, Kevin arrived. Seeing her eat so leisurely, he broke into a sweat.
Mr. Leopold’s face was as black as a storm, yet Ms. Aurelia was still so calm.
Aurelia looked at him and smiled faintly, “Hey, Mr. Kevin.”
Kevin cleared his throat, reminding her, “Mr. Leopold seems to be in a bad mood.”
Aurelia shrugged, “It’s not my fault. Ms. Elowen and Ms. Evelyn were also here just now. They must
have been jealous and upset Mr. Leopold.”
Kevin nearly choked.
Mr. Leopold was always calm and composed, never showing his emotions.
The only person who could affect his mood and make him lose control was her, and there wouldn’t be a
second one.
“You, the wife of Mr. Leopold, are different from others.”
He deliberately used the word “wife,” his voice very low, just enough for her to hear.
Aurelia was taken aback. His sudden change of address surprised her a bit.
“I’m just a temporary”
