Aurelia nodded and glanced at Leslie.
Leslie spoke in a composed tone, “In Seacester, there are several legitimate luxury item recycling
centers. You can take these items for evaluation, and the transaction should be completed on the spot.
It’s best not to delay. It’s challenging to estimate the interest on online loans.”
140 thousand was not a small sum for ordinary people, and compound interest was especially dreadful.
Mrs. Parker pointed at Leslie and asked, “Aurelia, who is this?”
Aurelia realized she had forgotten to introduce Leslie. “Mrs. Parker, this is my husband, Leslie.”
After sizing Leslie up, Mrs. Parker turned to Aurelia and said, “he looks much more reliable than the
one before. You have good taste.”
Aurelia felt a bit embarrassed and said, “Thank you, Mrs. Parker.”
Leslie felt strangely content after hearing this compliment. Though he rarely meddled in others’ affairs,
he took the initiative to speak.

home to pack your things and then go for an evaluation. If you think the price is right, sell it.”
“Okay, okay. Thank you, Leslie. But what about this place?” Mrs. Parker worriedly looked at her
husband on the hospital bed.
“Mrs. Parker, you go. Leslie and I will stay here. If anything happens, we’ll call you immediately.”
“Aurelia, thank you so much for today. I don’t know what to say.”
“Mrs. Parker, it’s not a big deal.” Aurelia smiled at her.
Mrs. Parker was relieved. After ten minutes, Daniel came to take Mrs. Parker away.
Watching Daniel’s back, Aurelia’s doubts deepened.
“Leslie, Mr. Xenos seems to listen to you.”
“We’ve known each other for many years.”
That was true. After all, Daniel was his first assistant, and they had been spending time together until
now.
Aurelia nodded in realization.
Spotting no doubt on her face, Leslie felt something indescribable in his heart.
“You…”
He was about to test Aurelia’s opinion on his identity when Mr. Parker’s machine started beeping

with an alarm.
The doctor rushed over. “It’s a cardiac arrhythmia. Hurry! Prepare for resuscitation.”
Aurelia was momentarily stunned, and Leslie pulled her away to wait outside the curtain.
They listened to the sounds of the defibrillation, and Aurelia held her breath.
Fortunately, the doctor came out after a while, looking a little exhausted.
“He’s alright now.”
“Thank you.”

with his heart. We’ll need to perform a thorough body check, so please be prepared.”
“Please go ahead with the body check then.” Aurelia didn’t hesitate. Nothing was more important than a
person’s life.
“Alright. We’ll start the preparations.” The doctors and nurses left a few words of reminder before
leaving.
Aurelia turned around to find Leslie frowning. “Mr. Synder, what’s wrong?”
“It’s nothing.”
He didn’t have the heart to tell her the truth when he saw the concerned look on her face.
Millie was blinded by the glorious fantasy she had been living. If her father actually had a severe heart
disease, would she do whatever it took to help her father like Aurelia did for her mother?
They could only hope that Millie’s father was merely suffering from a minor issue, or the situation
would escalate further.
