Chapter 205
Chapter 205 “Is that so?” Aurelia touched her face and wondered if her expression was that obvious. The caretaker continued.
“Yeah. You used to look exhausted all the time, but lately... you’ve been looking much better. | can barely recognize you. It seems like Mr. Synder really treats you well.”
Aurelia thought about it and nodded.
Though there had been conflicts between them, Leslie wasn’t afraid to admit to his own mistakes and apologize sincerely. This already made him better than any man she knew.
Any married couple would have arguments, especially those who got married without actually dating one another.
Compromising was the most important thing in a marriage.
“Mr. Synder is so handsome and nice. You must really love him, right?”
“Love? I...” Aurelia was taken aback.
“Love what?” Leslie’s voice came from behind her.
Startled, she stood abruptly from her chair.
“Nothing,” Aurelia replied as she shook her head.
“Hm?” He stared at her intently.
Changing the subject, she said, “Mr. Synder, where did you go just now?”
“| went to ask the doctors about your mom. They said that she’s recovering well and can be transferred to the normal ward soon. However, when your mom wakes up is entirely up to herself.”
Aurelia was thrilled for a moment when she heard that her mother could be transferred to the normal ward. But when she realized there was no telling when her mother would wake up, her face paled.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
“| know a few foreign doctors and | sent them your mom's medical report just now via email. Once they take a look at it, they will tell us what our next step should be,” Leslie continued.
Aurelia was stunned for a moment.
“You just went to...”
“Yeah.” Leslie nodded.
“Thank you,” she said.

Gazing at Leslie, her heart skipped a beat.
Leslie responded with a hum and turned to the caretaker.
“Hi. If you're available, I’d like to discuss long-term employment with you. You can discuss the salary you want with your family and let me know. If everything checks out, we can sign an employment contract,” Leslie said.
“Sir, you...”
“Aurelia thinks you’ve taken good care of her mother. For now, her mother’s condition is reliant on personal care, and we don’t plan to replace anyone.
“Therefore, we hope for long-term employment. You don’t have to worry about losing your job all of a sudden that way,” he explained.
Aurelia stared at Leslie with her eyes widened, feeling a bit guilty since she hadn’t thought about this herself. Thinking about it, Leslie was a considerate man.
Finding a good caregiver nowadays is difficult.
Aurelia felt reassured with the current caretaker.
She had considered offering a raise but hadn’t thought about employing her long-term.
The caretaker also seemed stunned.
“Mr. Synder, well...”
“Aurelia’s mother will need long-term supervision even after being discharged. We can provide you room and board, as well as holiday bonuses and double pay on special occasions. | believe these are things you cannot obtain as a freelancer,” Leslie continued, his voice clear and commanding.
The caretaker seemed visibly convinced.
“Mr. Synder, you ...”
“You can discuss this with your family,” Leslie continued.
“Yes, I'll feel very reassured if you can stay. But, you don’t have to feel pressured to stay,” Aurelia added.
The caregiver smiled.
“Alright, alright. I'll discuss this with my family.”
Aurelia nodded.
Now that her mother’s surgery was over, she no longer felt burdened.
Although she didn’t get the promotion to vice director, she could still cover the expenses for the Chapter 205

caregiver.
She just needed to put a little extra effort on her part in formulating plans, and the bonus combined with her salary would be enough.
This way, she could work without worrying about her mother. She glanced at Leslie beside her gratefully, taking in his profound profile. She felt a tingling sensation passing through her heart.
For some reason, she recalled something her mother used to always say to her.
