Moreover, just after giving birth to the first child, the second child would already be on the way. With
that, their holiday benefits would continue.
In their line of work, updates happened exceptionally quickly. At this rate, the company would be
dragged down, and they wouldn’t be able to keep up.
Additionally, Leslie was frequently harassed by some female employees for various reasons. Some
even boldly slipped flirtatious notes into the documents.
Leslie eventually grew tired of this and decided to stop hiring female employees altogether.
That was why Cynthia stood out.
Cynthia and Leslie were both fellow alumni, and the projects they participated in were quite similar. It
was as if Cynthia was a talent created just for the company.
Cynthia had also explicitly stated in her introduction that she wouldn’t get married or have children
anytime soon, so Leslie made an exception in her recruitment.
Cynthia did not disappoint. She consistently completed her projects, and her name was always
associated with promotions and salary increases.
She was intelligent, and everyone knew about her feelings for Leslie. However, she knew that Leslie
didn’t like to mix work with his personal life, so she had to approach him with caution.

good family background, good capabilities, good looks, and didn’t lack anything.
It wasn’t until Daniel met Aurelia that he realized that Cynthia wasn’t the right fit for Leslie.
They were too similar, and the ideal partner should complement each other. Aurelia’s calm and warm
demeanor perfectly filled the void in Leslie’s life that even he couldn’t perceive.
However, Daniel believed that it would be better for Leslie to tell Aurelia about the situation himself. So,
he didn’t explain much.
Unfortunately, he was unaware that Aurelia already knew about Leslie going to the airport to pick up a
woman. She had asked just to confirm the information.
Now that it had been confirmed, Aurelia’s heart sank.

recovered and regained consciousness.
The female doctor asked with concern, “Why did you eat nuts if you’re allergic to them? Did your
boyfriend accidentally give them to you?”
“Boyfriend?” Cynthia paused.
“The person who brought you here. Be sure to remind him to be more careful when buying food for you
in the future. Your allergic reaction was quite severe. Fortunately, the quantity you had consumed. this
time was very small,” the doctor said.

“You have some red rashes on your face and arms. I’ll prescribe some antihistamines for you. Take
care and get some rest.”
“Okay.”
Cynthia watched as the doctor left, then propped herself up to check the time.

Cynthia stood up, pretending to be in a frail state, and said apologetically, “I’m sorry. I probably

She covered her face and lowered her gaze. “I can’t attend the event looking like this. Can you send
me back home first? It’s been a while since I returned, so I don’t know my way around.”
