Chapter 322
Just then, everyone started clearing their throats while staring at their joined hands.
She flushed but couldn’t bring herself to release Leslie’s hand when she thought of her
drool on it.
Daniel smiled.
“Who would have thought that Leslie could type so quickly with just one hand? How impressive.”
Everyone laughed.
Leslie raised an eyebrow.
“That’s just because none of you have had the chance to practice.”
Daniel and the others immediately stopped laughing. They then shut off their computers
and left.
Aurelia felt embarrassed but couldn’t think of anything other than wiping her drool off Leslie’s hand.
With his hand being numb, she chuckled and took the opportunity to grab a piece of
tissue paper.
“It’s hot, and your palm is sweaty. I will wipe and massage it for you so it won’t feel as numb.”
Deep down, she praised herself for her quick thinking.
She quickly wiped his palm and breathed a sigh of relief once the drool was cleaned up.
Just then, Leslie teased, “Wipe your mouth, too.”
Aurelia fell into silence, feeling stricken.
He chuckled and got up.
“Come on,
let’s go home.”
She nodded.
“Sure.”
She gathered her things and was about to leave when she noticed Leslle looking for something.
“What’s wrong?”
“I don’t know where I placed my phone.
“I’ll just call
you,
“she said and made a call to his phone.
A ringtone sounded, and it turned out that Leslie’s phone was hidden underneath a pile of documents.
She pulled out the phone and said, “It’s here.”
Suddenly, she froze when she saw his screen.
She wondered if she was reading it correctly.
He had actually saved her number as “Aurelia“. She couldn’t possibly mistake her own
name.
She contemplated if she was different from Cynthia if he had saved her number and not Cynthia’s.
“Aurelia, what are you thinking? It’s just a contact profile,” she inwardly chided herself.
Still, she couldn’t help but smile.
Just then, Leslie grabbed the phone.
“Why are you smiling?”
She immediately stopped smiling.
“Nothing.”
He glanced at the contact name on her phone.
“Husband? You haven’t changed it back?”
Aurelia immediately covered her phone.
She had forgotten to change it.
“I’ll change it later. No, I’ll do it now.”
She immediately opened her contact list.

He narrowed his eyes and thought, “Is she really going to change it? Whatever. Why am I bothered by it?”
“It’s fine,” he said.
“Why?” Aurelia asked.
“Others will need to know who to call the next time you faint,” he said.
“That’s true. You should make a note, too, or no one would know how to reach your wife if you pass out.”
Aurelia instantly realized she had said the wrong thing, as others could always contact Linda.
“Why hasn’t the elevator arrived yet? Hurry up!” she thought. “What should I change your contact to then?” Leslie asked. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Aurelia felt annoyed at herself. It wasn’t like she could ask Leslie to change her contact name to “Wifey“.
As she faced his stare, the elevator door opened.
Feeling like she had been saved, she hurried inside and said, “Just change it to whatever you want.”
He stepped inside and said, “Sure.”
As the elevator descended, the two remained silent, and she noticed him tapping on his phone.
Confused, she wondered if it took that long to change a contact profile.
What exactly was he doing?
Curiously, she approached him. As her gaze fell onto the screen, it went black, and she only managed to catch sight of a symbol.
Leslie’s voice rose.
“Do you want to see it?”
“Yeah.”
Aurelia nodded without much thought and froze when she snapped out of it. She immediately shook her head.
“No, I don’t want to see it.”
“Alright,” he said and stepped out of the elevator.
She pouted behind him and thought, “Whatever.”
After taking a few steps forward, Leslie stopped and turned to look at her.
“I hope it will never be needed.”
Aurelia fell silent, unable to understand the type of information one would wish would never be necessary.
She didn’t inquire further, and Leslie headed straight to the parking lot.
