Married in a Flash Embarking on the Journey to Wealth
Chapter 128
She occasionally tried to set Jackson up with girls, so he regarded her as a friend.
Jackson clicked his tongue and said, âCanât you give me a name? This description isnât enough.
Kimberly laughed and said, âWhy would I need your help if I knew his name? I think he must be the most handsome man in the entire law firm.â
Jackson paused for a moment, then suddenly gasped.
âWhatâs wrong?â Kimberly was startled.
âI suddenly remembered my dad mentioning this law firm. The bossâs son had just returned from abroad and joined the firm. To avoid special treatment, he had taken on an internship.
âHe even drives a shabby car every day to pretend to be poor. My dad even used him as an example to criticize me, constantly praising how handsome and capable he was.â âReally?â She realized that Jackson had to be talking about the man she had encountered.
The embarrassment on Kimberlyâs face vanished. She started imagining the day she would appear in front of everyone with such an extraordinary man and receive their envious stares.
âI know just that much,â Jackson said impatiently, âBy the way, can you ask Millie not to message me every minute? Itâs so annoying! I thought it would be fun to play with her, but now itâs not fun at all.â
Hearing this, Kimberlyâs smile faded and was replaced by resentment.
When she thought of Millie, she thought of Aurelia.
Today, Aurelia had signed a contract with One Technology, so the boss would definitely take notice of her.
The plagiarism incident wouldnât stay hidden.
Kimberly considered for a moment and immediately stopped Jackson, who was about to hang up. âJackson, you didnât say anything to Millie, right?â
âI ignored her. You know I canât stand women who donât know their place,â he said.
Kimberly breathed a sigh of relief. âJackson, Millie is an innocent girl who has never been in a relationship before.â
âOh? Really?â he said. Innocent women were his weakness. Moreover, Millie was exactly his typeâsimple, delicate, and easy to control.
âOf course. Why else would I introduce her to you?â she said.
After some thought, Jackson said impatiently, âBut sheâs really annoying. We havenât even done anything, but she already thinks sheâs my girlfriend. She sent me eighty messages this morning, and I donât even feel like replying.â
Kimberly smiled and said, âIâll talk to her about this. Just ignore her for now until I tell you otherwise. I guarantee sheâll listen to you later. How about that?â

Jackson didnât have a date at the moment, so he couldnât possibly turn down such a good deal. âSure.â
âI need to take care of something. Bye for now.â
After hanging up, a plan started to form in her mind and she smirked viciously.
After getting into the car, she stepped on the accelerator to find Zachary,
Leslie was no fool. He knew that Kimberly would check which floor he would go to, so he had gone to the floor above.
When he returned to One Technology, he found Aurelia still waiting at the reception.
âWhy are you still here?â he asked.
âI wanted to thank you. The presentation went well,â Aurelia said with a smile.
âThatâs good.â
âI wonât keep you from your work then.â
âYou waited this long just to thank me?â he asked.
âWhat else can there be?â Aurelia gave him a confused look.
âNothing.â He frowned, then turned to head into the office.
Just then, Aurelia caught up to him.
âMr. Synder, please wait. Can I⦠treat you to a meal at a proper restaurant? But itâs fine if youâre not free.â
She looked at him nervously, not knowing why she was so nervous about a simple meal.
Would he say yes?
