Chapter 345
As Aurelia ate her steak, she considered all the possibilities of how she managed to anger Eva; but she couldn't
figure it out.
Leslie uncorked the wine, poured two glasses, and took a sip from his glass. “You will fall right into their trap if
you panic.”
“I'm just curious.” Aurelia glanced in the direction Eva disappeared.
“Let’s wait and see.” Leslie elegantly savored his wine as he used his phone.
Aurelia wanted to look at her phone as well, but Leslie shot her a look and she could only set her phone down.
She paused for a moment, wondering why she was afraid of Leslie.
Leslie set his phone down and asked, “Are you done eating?”
Aurelia nodded. “Yeah.”
“Let’s go to the security room, then,” he said as he stood up.
“Wait, are we supposed to just walk right into the security room of a big hotel?” asked Aurelia.
“If you don’t go through the surveillance footage, then are you supposed to search floor by floor?” Leslie

“Is that... not what we were going to do?” Aurelia replied.
She thought she was eating that much to prepare for the physical labori
allowed.
Leslie stared at her like she was strange and turned to pay the bill.
Aurelia could only follow him to the security room on the first floor.
The security guards seemed to know that they were coming and immediately offer
their seats.
“Mr. Synder, all the footage from today is here,” the guards informed them.
Leslie nodded. “Alright.”

Aurelia quickly stopped them and took out two ten-dollar bills from her bag to give them. “Thank you both for
your help. This was my idea, and he had nothing to do with it. Take
this money and buy yourselves scigarettes. You've really saveda lot of trouble.”
The security guards were startled and glanced at Leslie.
Leslie nodded and they accepted the money before leaving.
Aurelia turned back and sat down, sighing in relief. “Mr. Synder, you should have toldabout this earlier. |

“That's called bribery,” Leslie said seriously.
“This is not funny at all. It’s just social etiquette. Do you think we're shigh-born gentlemen and ladies? They
didn’t have to give up their seats for us. Although | hate to admit it, life is just that realistic,” Aurelia said,
pursing her lips.
Leslie hesitated, then decided against telling Aurelia his identity. He figured she’d run away as soon as she found

After all, the hotel was co-owned by his mother and someone else, but he hadn't
mentioned his mother’s nto outsiders.
“Let’s get back to it,” he said.
Aurelia pulled a chair over and sat next to Leslie.
Leslie adjusted the tto a little after eight in the morning, just in tto see Kimberly entering the hotel from

Besides that, Aurelia noticed something else that was strange.
“Wait a minute.” Aurelia paused the video and pointed at the frozen fras is that you?”

“Yes.” Leslie frowned. He had forgotten to avoid the footage of himself enter the
hotel.
Would Aurelia notice anything strange?
“Why did Mr. Xenos open the door for you when you got out of the car? And isn’t that the hotel manager

Aurelia looked at him before nodding. “I see.”

“Let's keep watching,” Aurelia said without a doubt for the truth of Leslie's explanation.
