Chapter 46

Kimberly chuckled, “I doubt it. I mean, I haven’t exactly saved Mrs. Lynch’s life or her daughter’s.

What’s there to envy?”

A colleague said, “Mrs. Lynch isn’t even part of One Technology. Even if Mr. Lynch had a say, he’s still

just a manager. You know how the boss of One Technology is. Ultimately, it’s his call for all the

collaborations.”

Kimberly smiled and stopped talking further, but everyone in the office had heard those words clearly.

Those who had previously mocked Kimberly for her adeptness at charming wealthy men suddenly

changed their tune, eagerly seeking to gain favor with the prospective deputy

director.

Kimberly grinned at Aurelia. However, Aurelia remained focused on her work, refusing to even

acknowledge Kimberly’s presence.

Kimberly was clueless about Ian. It seemed improbable for him to have gifted her such expensive

clothing-

Seeing that she had failed to impress Jason, Kimberly shifted her focus, fearing that her position in the

office would be compromised.

However, Aurelia was unfazed by it all.

Noticing Aurelia’s indifference, Kimberly felt a twinge of dissatisfaction. In her point of view, Aurelia

should envy her, especially considering the outfit that she was currently dressed in. After all, with her

monthly salary, Aurelia couldn’t even afford the pair of shoes Kimberly was wearing.

At the thought of shoes, Kimberly’s eyes honed in on Aurelia’s weathered footwear. An arrogant smile

spread across her face. She then elegantly took a seat, subtly showing off the expensive designer

heels under her dress.

“Kimberly, are those Christian Louboutin heels?” someone asked.

“For us ladies, owning a pair of Louboutin heels is a necessity. These are only six thousand dollars.

You should all get yourselves a pair too. Otherwise, you won’t be able to keep up with the trend,” she

boasted.

Kimberly lifted her feet, showing off her expensive lambskin high–heeled shoes.

“Are you interested? I’m quite familiar with the store’s sales associate and can help reserve a pair for

you. We can have afternoon tea and take photos together. It’ll look great,” Kimberly said

enthusiastically.

“I’d like that!”

“Me too!”

A few colleagues expressed their interest as they stood up excitedly, and even Millie raised her hand to

join them.

Aurelia was taken aback by the sight. Millie, who had previously disliked Kimberly’s showiness the

most, was now actually planning to purchase a pair of heels that cost six thousand dollars.

It seemed like she would be stretching her budget thin this month.

Aurelia discreetly signaled to Millie, hoping to convey her concern. However, either Millie didn’t catch

on to the signal, or she deliberately chose to ignore it.

Aurelia was perplexed. Suddenly, Kimberly appeared before her.

“Aurelia, would you also like a pair? Look at your heels. They’re quite worn out.”

“No, thank you. My shoes are just fine.”

Aurelia glanced at her own high heels. It was a classic pair of black heels. The pointed style

accentuated her feet gracefully. However, the pointed tips were a little scuffed, making them appear a

bit worn.

However, she didn’t feel ashamed because they were a gift from her parents after she had completed

her internship. It had cost them almost a thousand dollars for the shoes. Although it wasn’t from a

luxury brand like Kimberly’s, it was still a pair of heels from a mid–luxury brand.

William and Ava had only ever worn unbranded shoes, which cost less than 100 dollars for a pair. Their

decision to buy Aurelia an expensive pair of high heels was a clear display of their affection for her.

To Aurelia, it wasn’t just a pair of shoes. They symbolized her parents‘ love for her. While the shoes

would get old and worn, the love behind them remained timeless. Hence, Aurelia didn’t see the need to

purchase a new pair of exorbitantly priced shoes.

If they had the means, splurging on luxury items wouldn’t be an issue. However, most of her colleagues

came from average families. It seemed unreasonable to her for them to buy shoes or bags worth more

than their monthly salary, solely for the sake of taking good photos.

Although Aurelia couldn’t comprehend it, she refrained from meddling in other people’s lives. She

simply smiled in response to avoid dampening anyone’s spirits.

However, Kimberly wasn’t about to let Aurelia off so easily and seized the opportunity to make a

pointed comment.

“Aurelia, you’ve been wearing those heels for three years. We get it,” Kimberly stated. Her tone carried

many implications, attracting the attention of their colleagues.

They recalled Aurelia’s three–year relationship with Seth. Those high heels must have been a gift from

Seth.

Despite being married, it seemed that she still couldn’t bear to part with the items from her past
