Married in a Flash Embarking on the Journey to Wealth
Chapter 257

Chapter 257 

Aurella and Leslie had a simple meal at a small restaurant. 

By the time they reached home, it was already half past eleven. 

After a shower, Auella laid in bed, exhausted. 

She soon drifted off to sleep and had an odd dream. 

In her dream, she was dressed in a white wedding dress. 

She took step after step on a long red carpet. 

Observing the groom ahead of her, she picked up 

The groom was a tall man. 

her pace. 

The only man she knew with that height would be Leslie. 

Was it him? 

She reached his side and looked up, only to be terrified by what she saw. 

The groom didn’t have a face. 

The muscles on his face were moving as though he was trying to say something. 

“Pay me back. Pay me back…” 

She jolted awake and sat on her bed, panting. 

Just then, someone knocked on her door. 

“What’s wrong?” Leslie asked. 

“Nothing. I just had a bad dream,” she said. 

Taking a deep breath, she got up and changed. 

When she stepped out of her room, she found Leslie waiting outside. 

Taken aback, she asked hesitantly, “Mr. Synder, were you… waiting for me?” 

He observed the look on her face and turned around. 

“You’re overthinking it. It’s just a coincidence.” 

She scratched her head in embarrassment. 

“Oh. I’ll go wash up and make us breakfast. Go have a seat first.” 

“It’s fine. I’ve ordered us some food. It should arrive soon,” he said. 

Upon hearing this, Aurelia paused and turned to look at Leslie.

Was he being considerate since she was still tired from yesterday? 

Leslie sensed her gaze and said, “I was tired from yesterday too. I don’t want to do the dishes today.” 

“Oh, I see.” 

Aurelia nodded while studying Leslie. 

He was tall, well–built, and good–looking. 

She was quite surprised that he had such low stamina. 

On second thought, it seemed to make sense. 

He was a programmer who often stayed up late working. 

“What are you looking at?” Leslie felt her piercing gaze. 

“Huh? Nothing. I’ll go wash up.” 

Aurelia didn’t want to tell Leslie what she thought, so she evaded the topic. 

After Aurelia was done washing up, Leslie had already prepared the breakfast that had been delivered 

“Come and eat breakfast.” 

He took a sip of a cup of coffee. 

“Alright.” 

Aurelia looked at the table and salivated at the sight of hot soup, fresh–made bread, and pastries. 

Leslie must have spent quite a bit on this. 

She took a sip of the soup and wondered when she would get paid. 

Should she try to help improve Leslie’s stamina? 

“Mr. Synder, are there any ingredients you don’t like?” she asked gingerly. 

“Such as?” Leslie casually asked. 

“Such as… Codonopsis? Cordyceps? Pig liver? Red dates? Also, are there certain parts of beef you don’t like?” 

Aurelia listed examples one by one. 

It was summer now, so she couldn’t cook with overly rich ingredients. 

A stew seemed perfect and all the ingredients she mentioned could be used to make stews. 

Herbs were a bit expensive. 

But since Leslie and Linda treated her well, she didn’t mind spending money on them. 

Leslie raised an eyebrow when he heard about Cordyceps, and his face darkened at the mention of

certain beef parts. 

He put down the coffee and asked seriously, “Am I pregnant?” 

“No, who would eat bull testicles when they’re pregnant?” Aurella blurted out without thinking. 

He raised an eyebrow at her and restrained a laugh. 

“Bull testicles? It seems like you are trying to boost my stamina.” 

Aurelia shrunk under his gaze. 

“You said you were too tired, right? Bull testicles are good for replenishing energy, especially for someone who stays up late frequently like you.” 

“You seem to know quite a bit,” Leslie said in amusement. 

“Well, are you going to eat them?” Aurelia looked at him seriously. 

“What do you think? I’m doing well, very well. I don’t need them,” Leslie emphasized.
