Married in a Flash Embarking on the Journey to Wealth
Chapter 373

Chapter 373 

Outside the building, the online influencers were puzzled when they saw Lucia walking Aurelia down the stairs. 

After saying goodbye to Lucia, Aurelia thanked Allen before getting into Leslie’s car. 

Before the car even started moving, Aurelia anxiously said, “Mr. Synder! What’s going on? How come I’m the one who owns the necklace? 

Leslie struggled to get the words out. He was about to explain when Aurelia interrupted him and said, “Oh, I get it! Your boss is the one who secretly owns the necklace, right? Is that why you went to beg him again?” 

After pondering for a moment, Leslie replied casually, “Yeah.” 

Aurelia looked at him with urgency. “If Eva doesn’t want this to blow up, she’ll have to pay up. I’ll give you both sums once I get the money from the collaboration with IN Magazine Publisher.” 

Leslie frowned and asked, “Why?” 

Aurelia explained, “You should hand it over to your boss. He must really trust you to bother getting it notarized and hiring such a tough lawyer. Just these expenses alone are no small sum. If you owe him too much, you’ll feel troubled. 

“I know you don’t like being controlled, so let’s not dwell on it too much. I’ll return the money from the necklace, and we’ll figure out the rest of the favors as we go.” 

Leslie stared at Aurelia in disbelief. Even at the lowest market price, she should’ve known. that collaborating with IN Magazine Publisher under her own name would still rake in at six–figure income after this event. 

And yet, she was handing everything over to him just so he wouldn’t owe his boss any 

favors. 

Sensing Leslie’s gaze, Aurelia looked at him, puzzled. “What’s wrong? Is it too little? But 

I’m broke.‘ 

“It’s alright, keep the money,” Leslie said. 

“No, we’re married. We should…” Aurelia stopped herself mid–sentence, accidentally letting slip the word “married“.

“What should we do?” Leslie was cager to hear her continue. 

“Help each other,” Aurelia replied. 

“Is that all?” Leslie didn’t like the awkward atmosphere, but he knew he had been pushing Aurelia away all this time. So why did it feel like he was suddenly being friendly? 

Aurelia didn’t understand what he meant. Even with close relationships, financial clarity still mattered. Shouldn’t fake spouses be even more accurate with their divisions? 

As she was about to answer Leslie’s question, a reckless online influencer approached 

their car with a phone in hand. 

Aurelia quickly covered her face. “Hurry, let’s get out of here! These people will do anything for fame.” 

With a frown, Leslie glanced at the person by the car window. Then, he hit the gas and sped away, leaving a trail of dust for those behind them. 

Leslie was about to ask his question again, but Aurelia’s phone ringing interrupted him. 

Aurelia answered the call. “Hey. Really? Okay, I’ll be there right away.” 

After ending the call, she breathed a sigh of relief and turned to Leslie. “Mr. Clark nabbed Seth at the airport and found tons of face–swapped videos and photos of me on his laptop. That settles it, then. Mr. Clark wants me to swing by,” she explained. 

“Alright.” Leslie nodded and began heading toward the police station. 

As soon as Aurelia and Leslie stepped into the lobby, they heard Seth’s voice echoing loudly throughout the space. “It wasn’t me! Kimberly was the one who reached out to me! ” he said. 

“Bullshit! Seth, if you didn’t have that idea, would you have agreed so easily? And you even swapped faces with Aurelia overnight!” Kimberly snapped from the next room. 

Just then, Megan Grant, the cop handling the case, rushed over. “Aurelia, you’re here. You heard it all. There’s no need for questioning. They revealed everything during the argument,” she explained. 

“When can I publish the face–swapped photos online?” Aurelia asked.
