Kimberly’s lips curled into a smile as those thoughts passed through her mind.
“Alright, I'll help you. But you must attend the gathering tomorrow and be extra nice to Millie. Understand?” “Why?” Jackson frowned.
“It's not like I’m going to set you up. You wouldn’t want to become the third party in ruining someone else’s marriage, would you? Let Aurelia take the blame.” Kimberly winked.
In an instant, Jackson understood what she was trying to say,”
He smiled, took the wine bottle to pour himself a glass, and leisurely sipped.

Wednesday came.
To avoid Kimberly and her group, Aurelia continued to request fieldwork outside of the office from Zachary.
After a day of hard work, she was covered in sweat.
She was contemplating washing her face before heading to a Japanese restaurant when suddenly a man outside the factory shouted.
“Aurelia Simmons?!”
“That’s me.” Aurelia leaned out, raising her hand.
“Same-city Express Delivery. Please sign for your parcel.” The delivery guy handed her a large bag. Aurelia was familiar with this bag.
It was black with an orchid imprint.
“Who sent it?” Aurelia took the bag.
The delivery guy checked the list.
“Leslie Synder.”
Aurelia paused in surprise as she realized Leslie had sent her clothes and shoes. After signing for the delivery, she took the bag to the restroom.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Upon opening it, she found something unexpected.
There were towels and skincare products.
An immense warmth filled her.

Besides her parents, she had never been treated so thoughifully by anyone. She took out her phone to call Leslie but hesitated.
Worried that it might disrupt his work, she sent a message instead.
“I've received the items. Thank you. Aren’t these clothes quite expensive?” “| have coupons.”
“Alright, see you later,” she replied.
“See you later.”
Aurelia stared at the screen and felt an eager anticipation to meet him.
She quickly washed her face, used the towel to wipe her body, and changed into fresh clothes.
Leslie chose a white silk dress for her that shone splendidly under the lights.
There were no other patterns on the dress.
It was simple, yet elegant.
He even prepared a matching necklace with emeralds.
“These are probably fake. Otherwise, this necklace would cost a fortune,” she thought.
She put on the necklace but realized her hair was covering the necklace. Hence, she went online for tutorials to do her hair. The subtle glow of her necklace complimented her gentle demeanor and she found herself staring dazedly at her own reflection. Just then, her phone rang. Her colleagues were already gathering around.
She immediately changed into her heels and left.
In the Japanese restaurant, Kimberly and the others arrived when they heard the sound of a car engine rumbling behind them. Ablack race car stopped outside the door and attracted the attention of everyone present.
Kimberly curled her lips as she knew that she was in for a good show.
