Chapter 79
After a few rings, a woman’s impatient voice came through the phone.
“Who is this!”
“Mrs. Martinez, I’m a friend of Seth and Aurelia. I heard from Aurelia that Seth had been arrested. Is it
true?”
“Don’t bring up her name to me. Every time I hear her name, it infuriates me. My son is so unlucky to
have her as his girlfriend!” Rosa gritted her teeth.
“Mrs. Martinez, please calm down. I’ve tried to advise her to be lenient. Not only she doesn’t care about
Seth, but she also spreads negative rumors about him everywhere. How is Seth going to face the world
in the future?”
“What?!” Rosa suddenly cried out in despair. “That bitch! I hope she dies a miserable death! If
something happens to my son, I’ll make sure she pays for it.”
“Mrs. Martinez, getting angry won’t help. The most important thing now is to get Seth out as soon as
possible.”
“What can I do? Our family is all alone here. It’s all Aurelia’s fault! What kind of upbringing did she
receive? She doesn’t even listen to her man!
“She even dared to marry someone else. It’s clear she’s not a good woman. Back in the day, folks
would’ve thrown her in jail for sure!”
Rosa’s voice contained rage and a desire to see Aurelia suffer.
Kimberly listened with a sense of vindication.
“Mrs. Martinez, there’s actually a way to get Seth out immediately.”
“What way? Tell me, and I’ll thank you on behalf of Seth.”
“Don’t mention it. We’re all friends. But please don’t say it was me who told you. After all, Aurelia is
currently in a favorable position, and I don’t want to provoke her.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t say anything. Once Seth is out, I’ll make sure that bitch can’t live in peace!”
“Here’s a simple way. Have Aurelia go to the police station to sign a settlement agreement.”
“That bitch would never agree to a settlement. How is that possible?”
“She’ll have no choice but to agree if…”
After finishing the call, Kimberly hung up and blocked Rosa’s number. She was genuinely thankful
Rosa had registered her name and phone number with the building’s security guard when she came to
see Aurelia that day.
Once Aurelia and Seth reconcile, how will her husband react when he finds out?
Aurelia, what makes you think you have the right to show off in front of me?
After instructing someone to bring tea for Aurelia, Daniel left the private room. Aurelia slowly
walked in.
Aurelia put down her cup, feeling somewhat apologetic. “Mr. Synder, is your work going smoothly?”
Leslie sat on the sofa. “Yes.”
She poured him a cup of tea and sincerely apologized, “I’m really sorry for disturbing your work today. I
didn’t mean to.”
“Hm,” Leslie replied, taking a sip of tea, but his gaze remained fixed on Aurelia. He looked at her with a
mix of trust and suspicion. “Why didn’t you call for help downstairs?”
The restroom was just around the corner at the end of the corridor from the banquet hall. If she had
yelled, someone in the banquet hall would have heard. There was no need to run to the second floor,
where there were fewer people unless it was intentional.
Leslie wasn’t deliberately speculating about Aurelia’s intentions.
He had heard from the hotel sales team during the meeting that they had informed Aurelia about the
hotel’s negotiations with One Technology on the second floor. Given her reputation for materialism and
her timely appearance, it was natural for people to have their doubts.
Aurelia hesitated for a moment before letting out a sigh. “I didn’t dare to.”
“What?” Leslie was somewhat surprised by her response.
“Mr. Synder, do you know how demanding the workplace is for women? When a man misbehaves, it’s
called excessive drinking. But when a woman misbehaves, it’s called sexual exploitation. I’ve been in
this industry for over three years, and I’ve worked diligently to achieve what I have now.
“If I offend a client, do you think the company will appease a client worth tens of millions or someone
like me who earns just over ten thousand in salary?”
Aurelia looked at Leslie earnestly.
