That was the reason why she had brought it up today,

She continued, “The stewardess gave me a pack of nuts when I landed, I couldn’t refuse, so just threw it into my purse. It must have opened somehow and spilled Inside there, since my purse was filled with nuts.”

Cynthia observed Leslie’s expression through the rearview mirror.

Leslie remained expressionless as he kept his eyes on his phone, “I didn’t expect you to become this talkative after returning to the country,”

Cynthia was taken aback but maintained her smile. “I didn’t want to cause you any trouble, so it’s better to explain everything.”

“It’s fine.”

“Alright.”

Cynthia was overjoyed. It seemed that Leslie wasn’t influenced by Aurelia’s words and still trusted her.

“This is your personal matter. It has nothing to do with work,” Leslie said nonchalantly.

Cynthia fell silent and tightened her grip on the steering wheel.

Leslie didn’t like people who talked too much, so it was already special for her to be able to stay by his side like a friend.

Once they arrived at the company, Cynthia followed Leslie into the meeting room and swiftly started working.

When the meeting concluded, everyone gave Cynthia a round of applause.

“Ms. Whitlock, you never disappoint. You resolved the issue as soon as you arrived.”

“You’re too kind. You guys did a perfect job in the preliminary work, wifich enabled me to come up with the perfect marketing strategy. It’s all thanks to you,” Cynthia said and turned to look at Leslie. Leslie nodded slightly, indicating that her proposal this time was excellent.

Cynthia couldn’t help but feel delighted. She knew that she was still important to Leslie.

She was mainly responsible for the company’s sales market. Over the years, she had secured 60% of the deals in Leslie’s overseas companies.

Leslie was a businessman, and he couldn’t just abandon such an outstanding woman over a beautiful but ordinary woman.

She would definitely reclaim Leslie’s attention.

Leaving the meeting room, Cynthia noticed that it was already past ten o’clock. She thought of inviting Leslie to a restaurant for a proper meal together.

However, she was surprised to see Leslie entering a regular office and sitting with many employees. He even took a seat at an inconspicuous workstation.

Surprised, she asked, “Why are you sitting here? What about the office inside?”

“Daniel is using it,” Leslie said nonchalantly.

In truth, it didn’t matter where he sat.

He had no specific requirements in this regard.

In fact, him sitting here had improved the work efficiency of the people around him by a lot. It wasn’t that he enjoyed watching the others work, but when he encountered issues, he could just speak directly without all the unnecessary notifications and reports.

Hearing this, Cynthia froze for a moment.

She quickly came to her senses and asked, “Then, where should I sit?”

“Wherever there’s an available seat,” Leslie said calmly.

Cynthia consciously placed her files on the empty seat next to Leslie and then turned to face him.

“It’s been a long time since we had a meal together. I’ll treat you today, so why don’t we find a restaurant to have a nice chat?”

Leslie flipped through the documents and said casually, “It’s fine. I brought lunch.”

“Lunch?”

Cynthia momentarily didn’t understand the meaning of his statement and stared at him in confusion.

A considerate colleague explained, “Ms. Whitlock, you may not know this, but the boss has been getting lunch boxes made with love every day. They’re different each day, and the portions are much larger than meals outside.

“Haven’t you noticed that the boss has gained weight? He’s radiant and flourishing.”

After hearing this, Cynthia cautiously asked Leslie, “Who is it? Who’s taking such care to make lunch for you?”

The colleague became more excited as he spoke. “It’s that–Ah!”

His words cut off with a scream as a pack of tissues hit his forehead.

Daniel glared at him and clapped his hands. He said, “Sorry, my hand slipped. It’s the first day of business after the opening ceremony today, and the orders are endless. Hurry up and get back to work!”

The colleague instantly sobered up. Leslie had warned them not to mention anything about the

marriage, and he had almost let it slip..

“Boss, I’ll get back to work now.” “Wait,” Leslie said to him.
