Married in a Flash Embarking on the Journey to Wealth

With that in mind, Leon strode toward the dance floor.

Upon seeing Leslie’s expression, the others didn’t dare to provoke him and hurriedly cleared the dance floot

Only Aurelia and teste remaines).

“As Simmons, would you do me the honor of dancing with me?” Leon interrupted the two and extended a hand to Aurelia with a subtle sucer playing on his lips.

Aurelia hesitated. Amidst the crowl’s fearful gazes, Leon’s smile took on a more profound meaning as he completely disregarded Leslie.

Although Leon knew that Aurelia was married to Leslie, he had still openly challenged Leslie in public. This was not just retaliation against Leslie but also an attempt to humiliate One Technology

Amere programmer like Leslie could either openly disregard the heir of the Synder family at the company’s opening banquet or swallow his pride and yield his wife to another man.

Either choice was fatal for Leslie.

Would he choose his career or his pride?

Tension rose as the music continued playing in the background.

Some well-intentioned individuals actually began talking to Leslie.

“Mr. Synder probably just wants to be friends with Ms. Simmons. You've gained another friend, so you should be happy about it.”

“Ms. Simmons is an event planner, so she must have danced with many guests before. Mr. Synder rarely extends such invitations. You should be glad.”

“Don't just think about yourself. Consider the company as well.”

Aurelia paled, and her blood ran cold.

The same group that had just been indifferent now seemed to have changed their tune, appearing eager to please Leon. Was it because she and Leslie were just ordinary people?

She glanced at Leslie’s tense expression and held his hand tightly.

Before Leslie could speak, she declined, “Thank you for your offer, Mr. Synder, but I’m not feeling well and would like to rest for a bit.”

Aurelia didn’t want to cause trouble for One Technology and Leslie at this moment, so she could only Chapter 291

excuse herself by claiming to be unwell.

Ahint of displeasure flashed across Leslie’s eyes. He hadn’t expected Aurelia to refuse him.

Did she really think that organizing such a grand ceremony for One Technology and having at husband who was just an employee there would gain her support from One Technology’s boss?

He refused to believe that One Technology's boss would openly oppose him over a mere employee. The next moment, Leon directly grabbed Aurelia’s wrist and forcefully pulled her in front of him. 212

“Ms. Simmons, you must be a particularly considerate woman for you to be here for your husband despite feeling unwell. You must care a lot about him, right?”

While it sounded like a compliment, it was actually a threat to Aurella.

If she refused to dance with Leon, Leon would see to it that Leslie would become an outcast in Seacester.

Aurelia paled, and her hand trembled. How could a commoner like her face up to Leon?All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

Leslie may be capable, but he was powerless when compared to Leon.

Leslie had a bright future ahead of him. She would never forgive herself if he lost his job because of her. Leon felt her trembling and smirked smugly as he stared at her dangerously.

Aurelia tried her best to calm herself down. She told herself that she couldn’t compromise or give into his demands. She couldn't give him what he wanted.

Others would view her as the woman who abandoned her own husband for vanity. No matter how hard she tried to explain afterward, they would only see what they preferred to see.

Leon was killing three birds with one stone. He was attacking her and Leslie while humiliating One Technology. He was raised in a prestigious family, so the way he operated

was surely more complicated than a normal person.
