Married in a Flash Embarking on the Journey to Wealth

Chapter 108 In the photo, Millie wore a blue dress with a slender branded belt. A black GUCCI mini bag rested on her shoulder. With her exquisite makeup, she looked exceptionally charming.

Colleagues in the group chat estimated that her outfit alone would cost at least seven thousand dollars, nearly seven to eight months’ worth of Millie’s salary.

Millie commented. “It’s not too bad. | actually had my eye on a five thousand dollar bag. It was out of stock and | didn’t want to wait. But he did say he would take me to see it when it’s available.”

If she didn’t look at the profile picture, Aurelia would’ve genuinely thought it was Kimberly speaking. How had Millie changed so much in just two short days?

Millie continued. “By the way, he said he would take me to fine dining in a few days, the one Kimberly couldn't get a reservation for last time. He just made a call, and now | can go there whenever | want.”

Millie's pride was present in every word, and she didn’t forget to overshadow Kimberly. Aurelia could see through this obvious intention, and so could their colleagues.

Kimberly had connections, and nobody dared to offend her. Millie's background was completely different. She was the only university graduate among three generations and her whole family was eagerly awaiting her to succeed.

She was overly straightforward and incredibly talkative. She would’ve offended everyone long ago if it weren’t for Aurelia helping her navigate through office politics.

If there was anything everyone hated most, it would be how arrogant she was acting. Their words became increasingly sarcastic as a result.

“@AIl staff, come and take a look at the future Marie Antoinette. Even those who aren't married can bask in her glory. Who knows? Maybe one day we can all be rich as well.”

‘@AIl staff, Look at the new rising star in our department. Teach us quickly how to make a man spend several thousand in one night!”

All the messages were accompanied by sarcastic emojis at the end.

Aurelia knew they were mocking Millie. Surprisingly, Millie didn’t seem to mind.

“Maybe I’m just lucky to encounter a handsome, wealthy man.’

Those words left Aurelia speechless. She quickly exited the group chat and sent a private message to Millie.

“Millie, don’t talk about your relationship in the group. They are implying that something to get those branded items.” you did

“| know, they’re just jealous. Jealousy distorts people’s faces.” Millie replied. Aurelia felt a headache coming on and didn’t know how to respond to her.

She thought of another way to approach the topic. “Millie, who is this man?” “Aurelia, you’re already married. Is it appropriate to ask about other men?”

“| don’t mean anything else. | just find it strange that you encountered trouble during a blind date, and then suddenly met another wealthy and handsome man. Don’t you find it odd? My friend said men won't compromise for less unless they have other motives.”

Aurelia recalled Leslie’s words. She found them very profound and decided to share them with Millie.

She didn’t have many friends, and Millie was the closest person to her. She genuinely didn’t want her to get hurt by a man. Millie took a while before responding to the message.Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

“| told you not to mention that again! Are you doing this on purpose? What do you mean by ‘ compromise for less’? Are you saying that I’m not worth it? You are saying that I’m not worthy of a good man, right?

“Your background is even worse than mine, yet you can find yourself a husband who stays in a million dollar house. Why can’t I? What exactly are you trying to say?”

These words left Aurelia feeling disappointed.

She didn’t reply, nor did she know what else to say. Perhaps nothing she said mattered to Millie anymore.

As she set her phone down, the company group chat stirred once again.

She wanted to silence her phone, but accidentally opened it and found a photo of Kimberly and Zachary Zeller. “They are both dressed professionally. | heard they are going to One Technology.”

“If Mr. Zeller is taking Kimberly instead of Aurelia, | guess the vice director seat is confirmed!”

Aurelia froze.

What's happening? Weren't they supposed to go to One Technology next Tuesday?
