“Sis, don’t worry, my doctor approved of me returning to school. He said I can work and study just like a
normal person now.”
Aurelia served him a piece ofpork chop, “Just make sure to keep a regular schedule, don’t work too
hard. I’ll keep an eye on you.”
“Got it.” Avery made a funny face. She was only two years older than him, but she was acting like she
was ten years older.
That evening, Aurelia stayed at the hotel with her brother, and the next morning, she took him to school
for registration.
She also bought some fruits to share with his roommates to get along well.
“I have transferred your living expenses to your card. Remember to video call me every day.”
“Yes, your majesty.” Avery made an OK sign with his hand.
After returning to her apartment, Aurelia took a rest and then went to Arnold’s house.
As soon as she entered the yard, a little bunny hopped out to greet her.
Aurelia picked it up, stroking its fluffy head, “Little Fluffy, I think you’ve gained some weight.”
Arnold took the groceries from her hands, “Why didn’t you call first, I could have picked you up.”
“It’s okay, the subway station is nearby, it’s very convenient.”
Once inside, she went to the kitchen to start cooking, with Arnold acting as her sous chef.
“Aurelia, is your work pressure increasing recently?”
Aurelia looked up at him, “Did you also hear about Evelyn being parachuted in?”
A hint of sarcasm flashed in Arnold’s eyes, “Evelyn is not a quiet person. Compared to her sister, she
falls
short.”
Aurelia guessed that Evelyn’s sister must be a beautiful and unique woman, otherwise she wouldn’t NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
have been Leopold’s first love, unforgettable to him.
She sighed softly. “The workplace is like a battlefield. If you don’t work hard, you’ll be eliminated.”
Arnold smirked, “If they don’t let you be the director, you should quit. It’ll piss them off.”
This was something Aurelia had never considered. After all, she had been with Astral Enterprises since
she graduated. It was her first job. She had promised Emily that she would make a difference and not
let her down
She didn’t want to run away at the first sign of difficulty it wasn’t her style.
“I become stronger when I encounter difficulties. I’m not easily discouraged.”
A charming smile appeared on Arnold’s face, his eyes were tender, “This is what I admire most about
you.”
She was different from all the women he knew. She was like water lilies, pure and untouched. She
appeared weak on the outside but was full of tenacity and stubbornness on the inside.
Such a woman seemed easy to control on the surface, but in fact, she was the most elusive, like mist,
rain, and wind, unpredictable and uncatchable.
Soon, Aurelia had finished cooking – four dishes and a soup.

“I’m an average cook, just home–style food. I hope you don’t mind.”
“Are you kidding? Home–cooked meals are the most comforting.”
Arnold tasted a piece of beef brisket, gave a thumbs up and said, “It’s tender and flavorful, delicious.”
Seeing that he liked it, she relaxed and served him a bowl of tomato soup.
Arnold took a sip of the soup and sighed contentedly, “I like being with you. We can be ourselves, no
need to hide anything.”
Aurelia smiled, “Isn’t that the meaning of friendship?”
“Not all friends can be close, and even fewer can truly trust each other,” Arnold said in a low voice.
Aurelia agreed with this. It’s hard to find a few friends who you truly trust.
“Then I’ll be your good friend who can be trusted. When we’re upset, we can become each other’s
dumping ground, venting freely!”
“Deal!” Arnold laughed and nodded.
Just as they finished eating, Aurelia’s phone rang. It was a Wha
