Chapter 204 Linda opened her purse and took out two movie tickets.Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
“It's a good thing that | came prepared. I’ve already reserved a restaurant for you and a movie in the afternoon. I'll cook for you two tonight.”
Aurelia was silent and Leslie rubbed the bridge of his nose.
“Hang on. What do you mean you'll cook for us tonight?”
Linda stood abruptly, feeling like the best mother-in-law in the world.
Startled, both Aurelia and Leslie backed away.
“I'm just cooking dinner. What's wrong with that?”
Leslie's expression instantly darkened.
Linda turned to Aurelia and grabbed her hand.
“Aurelia, do you not trust me? I’m just trying to be a good mother-in-law.” “Well...Mom, | just don’t want you to overexert yourself,” Aurelia said.
“| won't. Just leave it all to me,” Linda said confidently.
“Oh...alright, then.” Aurelia nodded.
Next to her, Leslie raised an eyebrow while looking at her.
“Just don’t regret what you said.”
Aurelia wondered what was the big deal when all Linda wanted was to cook dinner. As soon as Aurelia agreed, Linda snatched the cups from her and Leslie’s hands. “Alright, you are done with breakfast now. It’s time for your date. I'll just go tidy up the guest room.” “Why?” Leslie asked.
She smiled and went to pull her luggage over from the doorstep. “As you can see, I'll be living here for a while.”
“Why can’t you stay at your own home?” Leslie asked.
“There’s a leakage.”
Leslie was rendered speechless.
There were plenty of rooms in the villa, so it was unlikely that there was a leakage in every single room unless there was a big flood.
Linda gently pushed Aurelia and Leslie. Chapter 204 2/3
“Quick, go for your date. The house feels empty. Both of you can buy some decorations before watching the movie. Aurelia, don’t try to save money for Leslie. He’s a married man now.”
With those words, Aurelia and Leslie were pushed out of the house. They were left standing in a state of disarray outside the door.
Aurelia hesitated.
“Mr. Synder, what do we do now?”
Leslie furrowed his brow and placed his hands in his pockets as he walked into the elevator. “Let's just go. Otherwise, my mom won't leave.”
Aurelia nodded hesitantly.
Initially, she planned to visit her mom at the hospital in the morning. She'll just have to put that on hold.
She followed Leslie into the car.
While on the road, she realized the scenery outside seemed familiar. “Mr. Synder, this isn’t the way to the furniture store...”
“Let's go to the hospital and see your mom first.” Leslie interrupted her.
Aurelia was taken aback.
She only then realized they were heading to the hospital. Leslie never mentioned her mother, so she didn’t want to bother him. She never expected him to take the initiative to bring her here instead.
When her mother fell seriously ill, Seth had always used the excuse of being busy with work before his promotion and didn’t want to go to the hospital.
At that time, Aurelia was understanding.
But thinking back to it now, she realized that he was probably afraid she would ask for money. Aurelia smiled. “Thank you.”
Leslie replied with a hum.
At the hospital, Leslie instructed Aurelia to go to the ward first.
Thinking he had something else to attend to, she went ahead.
She took a few steps ahead and turned to find Leslie entering the doctor’s office. Suddenly, it felt as if burden had been lifted from her shoulders.
Upon entering the ward, the caretaker greeted her with a beaming smile.
“Ms. Simmons, you look happy today. Did something happen?”
