Married in a Flash Embarking on the Journey to Wealth

Dantel looked at Leslie and smiled, so Leslie knew it was someone he knew.

Immediately, Daniel whispered something in his ear.

“Got it.” Leslie nodded and stood up. “You keep an eye on things here. I’ll be back in a bit.

“Alright, Mr. Synder,” Daniel said.

An old Volkswagen slowly pulled into a vast estate. Two rows of trees wound their way up, and leaves curled up on the road, while antique short lamps served as

non

embellishments along the path.

After the car stopped, the family’s driver stepped forward to open the door and took the keys from Leslie.

“Just a quick wipe. I’ll be leaving later,” Leslie informed.

“Yes, sir,” the driver said.

With that, Leslie strolled into the house.

The mansion was in the style of the Synder family’s forest garden, and through the waterside corridor was the reception room. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

Leslie turned into the adjacent room, where Linda sat in a grand armchair, brewing tea.

She was not at all surprised to see him.

“You rarely come home, yet you came today without needing an invitation. Have a seat.” The tea brewed emitted a refreshing aroma, and Linda poured a cup for Leslie.

Taking a leisurely sip, Leslie glanced out the French window at the bamboo forest.

Linda glanced at him and smiled. “You’re rarely so absent–minded. Is it the rumors about Aurelia online?”

“No,” Leslie said blandly.

Linda considered his word for a moment and immediately guessed what was on his mind. “You will eventually get in trouble when you keep looking for one. Lies can become a burden if said too often. Lies are the worst things to exist in a marriage.”

“It’s not time yet,” Leslie said.

Linda asked, “When will it be time then? When you’ve avenged your grievances? You’ve always had a goal, and every step has to be planned toward that goal

“You can’t even be bothered to stop for a second. Life shouldn’t be like that. Life has its ups and downs, surprises, and many exciting things. You can’t ignore everything else just because of your goals.”

Linda insisted on Leslie getting married precisely for this reason.

Her son had turned into the robot he was studying at some point. He was devoid of expression, emotion, or life. She felt guilty that her stubbornness and failed marriage caused her young son to suffer great upheavals.

Over the years, she had been trying to change Leslie, but all her efforts had failed.

Until one day, she met Aurelia.

At first glance, Aurelia seemed ordinary, but Linda saw much potential in her. She was vibrant and uplifting. This was exactly what Leslie lacked.

In fact, Linda had considered letting them get to know each other before discussing marriage. However, given Leslie’s state, she was sure that this approach would nevEZ

work.

Leslie’s world was sealed and if she didn’t pry open a gap, he would have never met with

Aurelia.

Though she was the one who demanded this marriage, she could see how much Leshe had changed.

Leslie wanted to argue, but ended up just sipping on his tea. “Maybe another time.

Linda was overjoyed. She knew what Aurelia was capable of, or she wouldn’t have felt so connected to Aurelia the first time they met.

They were destined to be a family.

“Those two brats are upstairs. Go ahead and talk to them. Do you need my help?” Linda

asked.

“It’s fine. She can handle it herself,” Leslie said.

“Alright. I’m glad you’ve learned to protect your wife.” Linda smiled.

Leslie didn’t acknowledge or deny what she said. Setting the cup down, he got up and

strode out.

Linda sipped on her tea happily and wondered when she would have grandchildren.
