Chapter 53 Complain To My Boss

“I’m your third brother. Have you lost your mind? Let go of me! What on earth have you been learning out there? When you first came home, you seemed fine, polite, and a good little sister. Now, you’re quick to resort to violence. How are you any different from a thug?” Spencer accused angrily.

“Let go of Spencer, Aurelia. My patience has its limits. If you anger me further, 1. Aaron, will absolutely refuse to acknowledge you as my sister from this day forward.” Aaron was determined to teach Aurelia a lesson. He couldn’t afford to give her any opportunity to cause trouble for the Leedon family.

Spencer’s face turned deathly pale, “Where did you learn your grappling techniques?”

Spencer had acted in plays and undergone training, but he found the training too exhausting and often left it to his body double. He was well aware that Aurelia was using a grappling technique. She’s applying the tactics she should use against villains. Is she even aware that I’m her third brother?

Aurelia saw how flustered and exasperated they were. She let go of her hand and said, “You’d better remember what I’m saying now. Your Leedon family and I have no connection.”

Spencer gripped his reddened hand, roaring in anger, “What has gotten into you? Weren’t you always trying to please me before? So, now that you see I don’t like you, you’ve changed your tactics? No matter how you change your approach, the sister I’ve acknowledged is Mel.”

“Spencer, hold your tongue,” Aaron said with a cold expression. “Aurelia, come home with me now. Mom and Dad have something important to discuss with you.”

Before, whenever he put on a stern face, no matter what he said, Aurelia would always listen.

“Two men bullying a woman. Aren’t you afraid of becoming a laughingstock if word gets out? The Leedon family’s upbringing has truly opened my eyes.”

Suddenly, a mocking remark rang out behind the three of them, and they turned around.

Aurelia was somewhat taken aback when she saw Gordon. “Mr. Zeller?”

Hearing that, Aaron and Spencer, who were unfamiliar with Gordon, both furrowed their brows.

Gordon first glanced at the car parked across the street before he said, “I happened to be passing by and. saw someone bullying you. Are you okay?”

Aurelia nodded. “I’m fine.”

“So you’re Mr. Zeller? Good timing. Come with us to the Leedon residence. You need to tell my dad about your relationship with Aurelia,” Aaron uttered in an assertive tone.

Spencer reined in some of his anger, curiously sizing up Gordon.

Deep down, Gordon was terrified. My relationship with Ms. Shaw? What relationship? What’s my relationship with Ms. Shaw? Boss is just across the street! This is driving me crazy!

Gordon tugged at the corner of his mouth and responded, “I think there’s been a misunderstanding, Ms. Shaw and I are merely friends. Have you perhaps thought too ill of Ms. Shaw?”

“Ms. Shaw, I happen to be going your way. May I offer you a ride?” Gordon asked Aurelia.

“Thank you, but I drove here.” Aurelia was feeling embarrassed. It seemed that Gideon had said something. to Aaron and the others, causing them to misunderstand Gordon.

Gordon glanced at the roadside, spotting a familiar new energy car. “All right, Ms. Shaw. You leave first.

Aurelia walked over to open the car door when Aaron sternly questioned, “Who bought you this car?”

None of them had given Aurelia any money, and Aurelia didn’t have any job after graduation. Therefore, they thought she wouldn’t have money to buy a car. She claimed to have no relation with Mr. Zeller, but a cover- up only makes matters worse. Who is she trying to fool?

“Do you have nothing better to do? Aren’t you meddling excessively?” Aurelia sneered.

Aaron was quite surprised by Aurelia’s attitude. “What kind of attitude is this?”

“Mr. Leedon, how about your attitude toward Ms. Shaw?” Gordon couldn’t stand it anymore.

“Mr. Zeller, it seems you’re quite concerned about my sister, aren’t you? Are you still refusing to acknowledge your relationship with her? The Leedon family is strict in upbringing. We don’t want her to be a kept woman. If you have no intention of marrying her, then don’t meddle in her affairs, Mr. Zeller. I can make the decision. She won’t be with you in the future, Aaron retorted with a stern face.

From a man’s perspective, Gordon was very nervous around Aurelia.

He was Aurelia’s eldest brother, and it was necessary for him to maintain a certain demeanor and presence, ideally intimidating enough to make Gordon wary of him.

“If people found out that you’re providing for the Leedon family, our family’s reputation would be completely ruined. Look at the mess you’ve made, Aurelial” Spencer accused.

“Get lost.”

Aurelia considered herself to have a fairly good temperament, but even the best manners couldn’t compare to the shamelessness of Aaron and Spencer.

Gordon was also infuriated by the logic of the two individuals. “I’ve trained in boxing for several years, though it’s been a while since I’ve had a real fight. If you slander me, I can reason with you, but I simply cannot tolerate any defamation against Ms. Shaw,” he said as he rolled up his sleeves. Boss is just across the street. Even if Boss doesn’t like Ms. Shaw, how could I possibly allow anyone to bully Old Mrs. Quigley’s granddaughter–in–law, whom she cherished dearly? What kind of family values does the Leedon family uphold that led to such skewed perspectives and logic among all its members?

“You!” Aaron and Spencer exclaimed in shock.

Initially, Aurelia’s heart had been chilled due to Aaron and Spencer. However, with Gordon’s protection, at sense of warmth had seeped in. She was contemplating how to tell Gordon that the thing she feared the least was a fight.

At that moment, across the street, Matthew saw that Aaron and his group were still relentlessly pestering Aurelia. Coupled with his splitting headache, he had lost all patience and directly dialed Gordon’s number.

“I don’t keep the company of those who are timid or indecisive. If you procrastinate any longer, you should go to Alendor to toughen up for a few years,” Matthew said.

Gordon was taken aback. “I was just showing respect to Ms. Shaw earlier. I never dilly–dally when I do things!”

With that, Gordon swung his fist, heading toward Aaron and Spencer.

While he was at it, he also kicked the both of them.

The two didn’t expect that Gordon would take action as soon as he said he would.

“You! You dare to hit me?” Aaron staggered back several steps. He hadn’t been this disheveled in a long time.

Aurelia was taken aback. She blinked, and her gaze landed on the phone that Gordon had thrown over before he made his move. There, she saw “My Respected Provider” shown as the caller ID.

Mr. Zeller’s provider? Could it be Matthew? Is it Matthew who made Mr. Zeller take action? In other words, is Matthew nearby? Aurelia looked around and suddenly spotted a familiar luxury car across the street. Through the half–lowered window, she could vaguely see Matthew’s face.

Unsure if it was due to the neon lights, instead of casting a rosy glow, his complexion appeared somewhat pale.

Gordon flicked his wrist. “Not only do I dare to hit you, but I also dare to investigate you. If you dare to spout nonsense again, I assure you, you’ll regret crossing me,” he said. They’ll also regret crossing Boss!

“Mr. Quigley probably doesn’t know about the misconduct of those around him, does he? If I were to bring your actions to his attention, wouldn’t you be afraid of losing your job?” Spencer said angrily. I have scenes where I have to show my abs in these couple of days. My abs must be bruised by now. I’ll have to risk the possibility of inconveniencing the director by delaying the schedule! Otherwise. I’ll have to replace a body double. D*mn

“Ms. Shaw, could you please hand me the phone? Thank you.” Gordon reached out his hand toward Aurelia.

Aurelia handed over the phone. “I should be the one saying thank you.”

“You can lodge your complaints on the phone. I’m currently on a call with Mr. Quigley.” Gordon handed over the phone, signaling them to voice their grievances. The more they complain, the faster my annual salary might increase!
