Chapter 405
Aurelia was not only blessed with ethereal beauty and an air of grace that set her outstanding, butalso with strength, intelligence, and independence.
She was not just gifted in design, but also had a keen business acumen and a sharp eye for markettrends. She could easily stand shoulder to shoulder with any man in the world of commerce,conquering any challenge that came her way.
Megan, on the other hand, was nothing more than a scheming socialite skilled in playing the gameof high society, full of tricks but lacking in true talent and vision, just like Magnolia used to be.Aurelia offered a faint smile, choosing not to speak. She wasn't one to discuss her private affairswith Leopold. In the corner of her eye, she noticed Melissa and Megan making their entrance.Melissa's gaze was immediately drawn to Elvis, as it always was during these parties. Seeing himwith Aurelia once again sent her into a fit of rage.
That bitch, she thought, is trying to seduce Elvis again, probably looking for her next sugar daddy.Fuming, she marched straight over and sneered, “Elvis, you're not thinking of picking up mybrother's wife, are you? You're not really interested in his discarded woman, are you?”
Jelena sprang up from the sofa. “Watch your mouth. It was your brother who refused to divorce andbegged Aurelia to come back.”
"And what of it?” retorted Megan. “He's lost interest in that bitch now. How can a low-born girl evercompete with a high-born heiress?”
Jelena scoffed. “You're the one who played the mistress and now you're pretending to be all highand mighty. Shame on you. We might have hard lives, but we'd never stoop so low as to be ahome-wrecker.”
Megan's face turned pale as she retorted, “I'm not a mistress, because the one who's not loved is amistress. Leopold has always loved me. Aurelia is the intruder in our relationship.” She stated thisbrazenly, without a hint of shame or hesitation
Aurelia felt the irony of it all. The more shameless the person, the more invincible.
"So, you think you're the old villain woman of a soap opera? Do you think that marriage laws arejust decorations without any legal consequences?” Aurelia said
At this, Megan trembled. Was this woman mocking her age?
“I'm not old!"
Aurelia chuckled. "You're older than me.”
Megan was left speechless, her cheeks burning with embarrassment. She wished she could sendAurelia straight to hell. But she couldn't. If Aurelia were to die, she would lose all leverage overLeopold. He would dispose of her quickly.
She wanted both Leopold and the position of the Stirling family's young lady, not a mutualdestruction with Aurelia.
Taking a deep breath, she extended her hand, showing a ten—carat pink heart-shaped diamond ringon her ring finger.
“This is the engagement ring Leopold gave me. He has proposed to me. Even if you two haven'tdivorced yet, in his heart, you're no longer his wife, I am.”
The light from the chandelier hit the diamond, casting a dazzling glare that stung Aurelia’s
eyes.
Although this diamond ring couldn't compare to the rare and precious one on Aurelia’s hand, it wasclear how serious Leopold was about marrying Megan, otherwise he wouldn't have given her thering so soon.
Melissa feigned surprise and exclaimed, “Oh wow!” She played along with Megan, both of themteaming up to bash Aurelia. “Megan, look at how much Leopold loves you, how much he dotes onyou. You're his first love. None of these nobodies can compare to you. They're just substitutes. Nowthat you're back, they should pack their bags and roll out.”
Megan gave a coquettish smile, “Leopold said that he would never leave me again in this lifetime.We would grow old together, and when we're old, we would watch the sunset with our children andtravel the world together.”
