Chapter 26

Florence said, “After my husband and Ms. Simmons left the restaurant, they went to the hospital to take care of me. Ms. Watson, do you need me to show you the surveillance footage of my delivery in the hospital?”

Florence’s anger was evident.

Zachary immediately stepped forward. He swallowed his pride and comforted, “Mrs. Lynch, calm down. It’s all a misunderstanding!”

Florence raised her eyebrows and said, “Misunderstanding? I don’t think so. If it was just a misunderstanding, how could anybody post such photos in my name?

“Mr. Zeller, it’s not just your company involved now that Jason has also been slandered. If I don’t stand up and investigate thoroughly, wouldn’t it turn into a mess?”

Zachary frowned deeper and nodded repeatedly. “Yes, yes, we will definitely investigate thoroughly.”

Florence stopped pressing Zachary and simply reminded him, “I have to come here to clarify for my husband just after giving birth to my child.”

“I wonder how my father will deal with the culprit if he finds out about it. One should always weigh the pros and cons in life.”

Zachary couldn’t refute and broke out in a cold sweat.

Seeing that, Aurelia thought for a while and walked up to Florence.

“Mrs. Lynch, please don’t worry. Our company and colleagues trust me. They haven’t caused me any trouble. On the contrary, I’m sorry to Mr. Lynch, so I will apologize to him in person another day.”

Florence shot Kimberly a contemptuous glance.

“Look here, this is the so–called ‘considering the overall situation.‘ It’s unlike kicking someone when they’re down.”

Upon hearing that, Zachary and other colleagues immediately looked at Aurelia gratefully.

Only Kimberly seethed with jealousy.

Florence snorted softly and turned to look at Aurelia.

“Ms. Simmons, I specially ordered someone to make pumpkin soup for you, so please have a taste. You are my savior, and even my father said he wanted to meet you. Don’t let the uncultured swine affect your mood.”

Kimberly’s gloomy figure froze on the spot while her colleagues mocked her in silence. This was the biggest humiliation she’d ever faced since having joined the company!

Aurelia ignored Kimberly and took over the thermos jar. “Thank you.”

“Don’t mention it.” Florence urged, “Quick, try it.”

Aurelia took a glance at Zachary.

Chapter 26

Not daring to offend Florence now, Zachary nodded vigorously at her.

Then, Aurelia pointed to her seat. “Let’s go to my place.”

Florence hummed in response and had someone push her wheelchair to Aurelia’s workstation.

Aurelia unfolded the quillow into a blanket and covered Florence with it.

“Mrs. Lynch, don’t catch a cold.”

“Thank you.” Florence smiled.

Then, Florence whispered a little apologetically, “Ms. Simmons, I’m sorry that I can’t pinpoint Kimberly in public. Above all else, I have to consider the reputation of the two companies. Secondly, if I expose her, I’m worried that she will pick on you even more.”

“I understand.”

“Then you…” Florence suddenly said mysteriously, “How do you know Ian? You are the first woman Ian has ever helped.”

“Ian?”

Aurelia paused with the spoon in her hand. She looked at Florence in confusion.

“I came here in a hurry, so I didn’t have time to prepare the surveillance footage. He restored the data and sent it to me. He can’t be going out of his way for a woman. That’s why I’m curious about how you two met.”

“I really don’t know Ian,” Aurelia responded quickly lest Florence misunderstood that she had ingratiated herself with lan. novelbin

Florence frowned. “Do you not know him? Then why did he help you?”

Aurelia was also curious.

A handsome figure inexplicably emerged in her mind. It was Leslie.

Did he help her?

Aurelia was lost in thought.

Suddenly, Florence leaned in closer to her and changed the subject.

“Don’t worry about Ian. He is unfathomable anyway. By the way, I heard from Jason that you were married. You rejected him for your husband. So, I’m curious about what your husband looks like. Can you show me?”

Aurelia was somewhat hesitant. But seeing that Florence had no bad intentions, she nodded.

It just happened that she had a wedding photo on her phone.

“I have a picture. Actually, he is…”
