Chapter 15 Was It Really That Fast
He was stunned for several minutes. That fast?
Then, filled with some doubt about life, he posed a question: Aurelia?
There was no response..
Gordon stared at his phone, waiting another ten minutes.

After not receiving any messages from Aurelia on WhatsApp, Gordon let out a long sigh of relief. Thankfully, he had just been overthinking. There was no

Before going to sleep, when setting the phone to silent mode, she noticed a friend request from Gordon, she accepted it and then tossed the phone asid
Matthew, holding his clothes, entered the bathroom. As he was about to close the door, he noticed that Aurelia had already closed her eyes and fallen as
He was somewhat taken aback. Pretending to sleep?
He thought she played the part convincingly, showing some acting skills. Anyone unaware might have thought she had a background in performance arts
Half an hour later, when he emerged from the bathroom, dressed to the nines, he found that Aurelia was still in the same sleeping position as before..
In his heart, he thought she could last quite long.
Suddenly, a woman appeared on the bed, and he was truly unaccustomed to it.
After lying down on the bed, the woman beside him remained motionless.
At the same time, the sound of even breathing fell into his ears.
His face suddenly fell. She had actually fallen asleep! When he composed himself to turn off the light, he noticed two pillows placed in the middle of the b
Is she guarding against me? Matthew pursed his thin lips. She’s overthinking and overdoing it!
Even if she were to undress completely in front of him, he wouldn’t spare her a second glance,

When he woke up, he initially thought it was the middle of the night.
However, when he saw a ray of sunlight filtering in through the slightly ajar window curtain, he paused for a moment. I slept the whole night through?
Coincidentally, Aurelia turned over, waking up from her sleep.
When she opened her eyes and saw Matthew sitting in front of her, she was somewhat bewildered.
She really had some trouble adjusting to her married status.
Awkwardly, she smiled at Matthew. “Good morning.”
Matthew’s gaze lingered on Aurelia’s porcelain–white face for a moment. “Good morning.”
“I’ll go change my clothes first,” Aurelia said as she got off the bed.
Matthew also got out of bed, first putting on his wristwatch. He casually glanced at the time. It was seven–fifteen.
The two of them went to wash their faces, one after the other.
Then, almost simultaneously, they walked out.
Mabel woke up early. When she heard from Evelyn that the two of them hadn’t gotten up yet, she had been waiting from five–thirty until seven– thirty. The longer she waited, the more delighted she felt inside.
She knew Matthew too well. As a child, he had no issues, but as he grew up, he somehow. developed an annoying problem of suffering from insomnia.
Thus, sharing a bed with Aurelia and being able to sleep until that moment was quite rare! Waking up at that time in the past would only be possible due
Upon seeing the two descending the stairs together, she couldn’t help but smile broadly as she called out to them, “Come have breakfast. We have western and Clusian options.”
“Are you feeling better, Grandma?” Aurelia was deeply concerned about Mabel’s health.
“I’m much better. Don’t worry about me, Grandma,” said Mabel, afraid that Aurelia would worry too much about her.
She knew her body well. She would persist for as long as she could.
It would be best if she could persevere until Matthew and Aurelia truly achieved their goal. Did Matthew think I was unaware that their marriage wasn’t re

before, and his sleep–deprived chill had faded. “It seems like you had a good night’s sleep last. night!”
“Um, it’s okay.” Matthew deliberately ignored the teasing look in his own grandmother’s eyes.
“Just okay? You went to bed before ten last night, didn’t you? You slept until after seven. That’s almost a week’s worth of sleep in one night, isn’t it?” Mab
Matthew was speechless. Why’s Grandma saying that?
Upon hearing what Mabel had said, Aurelia turned her gaze toward Matthew. Was his sleep problem. really that severe?
She had previously heard Mabel mention it, but she didn’t pay much attention at the time. Hearing it firsthand, she was genuinely taken aback. Didn’t he
“Aurelia, Evelyn mentioned that she didn’t remember the acupoints from yesterday. Could you come back tonight and demonstrate them for her again?” Mabel asked Aurelia.
“Of course, Grandma,” Aurelia readily agreed.
Indeed, there were many acupoints on the head, which was hard to remember all at once.
Later, Aurelia would draw a diagram, marking the acupoints clearly.
When Matthew saw how readily Aurelia agreed, his eyes darkened slightly. He increasingly felt that she was cunning, not only trying to please his grandm
Perhaps he should have asked Gordon to investigate Aurelia and her boyfriend later.
Their three–year agreement might potentially need to be brought forward in purpose.
He couldn’t allow a person with unclear intentions to stay by his grandmother’s side.
On the day he received his certificate, he lacked consideration.
Aurelia arrived at the antique street, and after parking her car, she picked up her mobile phone and prepared to get out.
Only then did he notice the WhatsApp message on her phone.
There wasn’t time for her to check it in the morning.
Upon seeing that it was Gordon, who had been added just the night before, she asked: Do you need something, Mr. Zeller?
As soon as Gordon clocked in for work, he saw Aurelia’s reply and almost instantly responded: I was wondering if I could ask you for a favor, Ms. Share. Would that be conv
Aurelia: What’s the matter?
Gordon swiftly sent out several photos of jade pendants.
He had meticulously chosen those jade pendants, staying up all night the previous evening.
Gordon typed: I won’t carry the previous one anymore. I’ve returned it to the person who gave it to me. Could you help me see which jade pendant I can
Aurelia glanced at the time. It was eight fifty–five. She responded: I’m busy at the moment. I’ll tell you later tonight.
Gordon read the message that Aurelia had replied to him, and a question arose in his heart. Tonight? How can she have time tonight?
At that time, he was supposed to be in Matthew’s office, but Matthew hadn’t arrived yet!
Thus, he assumed last night must have been quite fierce for his boss.
Gordon hadn’t daydreamed for more than a few minutes when Matthew appeared before his eyes and was assigned a task.
“Go and investigate the current situation of Aurelia and Curtis. Leave no stone unturned. Every detail must be clarified,” ordered Matthew.
Gordon was taken aback. “Investigate Ms. Shaw?”
“Yes,” Matthew commanded in a cold voice.
He suspected that her sudden agreement to marry him was due to some event that had prompted her to get closer to him.
“Understood!” While Gordon verbally agreed, his eyes were filled with doubt. Hadn’t the two of them just slept? Why did he want to investigate Ms. Shaw
Had he not met Aurelia before, he would have suspected that Aurelia had ulterior motives for marrying his boss.
However, after seeing her, he felt that Aurelia didn’t seem to be that into his boss.
He asked hesitantly, “Do you suspect that Ms. Shaw and Mr. Curtis never broke up?” Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
