The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold)
Chapter 409

Chapter 409

“Once a man succumbs to the pleasures of making love, there's no turning back. He becomesensnared. Remember how my father was, with countless women whose names he probably couldn“teven recall? And look where it got him- his kidneys gave out and it killed him.”

As she said this, she patted Megan on the shoulder. “Don't take it too seriously, turn a blind eyenow and then to keep Leopold content. After all, you are the heiress of a wealthy family, you can'tlet yourself be outdone by a lowly gold—digger like Aurelia.”

Hearing this, Megan felt a pang of unease. Had Leopold really changed during their six years apart?“Can Aurelia really stomach all the women by Leopold's side? I replace that hard to believe.” Megancouldn't help asking.

Melissa scoffed, “That's the clever part about gold-diggers. She has no money, no power, and nobackground. If she didn't play the part of the virtuous woman, Leopold would never have chosenher.” She paused, changing her tone, “Besides, she has no other options now. Arnold's married. Evenif he wasn't, he'd still be a womanizer. He married Lisa and look what happened — they have a childnow. Men can control everything but their own desires.”

With that, Megan's heart sank. She began to believe Leopold really had changed. But this wouldn'thinder her decision to marry him, she'd eventually get rid of those vixens one by

one.

The night grew darker.

In the presidential suite, Katie had already left.

The act had played out brilliantly.

Kevin walked in.

He knew Mr. Leopold was doing this to divert the enemy's attention.

In order to protect his wife, Mr. Leopold was willing to tarnish his own image.

But this would only deepen her misunderstanding, wouldn't it?

He sighed quietly, pulling out his cell phone, “This is a video taken at the party tonight.”

Leopold had people secretly following Aurelia to ensure her absolute safety, since he couldn't letthe enemy harm her again.

Taking the phone, Leopold's slender fingers scrolled through the footage, stopping at a certainpoint.

Chapter 409

“Before I returned to Elysium, Leopold was with Katie. And she was just one of many Whyshould we women make life difficult for each other? As long as they don't aspire to take myplace, I'm willing to coexist peacefully.

He rubbed his forehead and sighed, what a devoted wife he had.

In another video, Elvis appeared on screen, “I can't wait for Leopold to back out. And I'll marryAurelia the moment he divorces her.”

His fingers tightened on the phone, a flash of anger in his eyes

He was most wary of Arnold. He thought that since Lisa was pregnant, Arnold couldn't divorce, andAurelia was temporarily safe. He didn't expect Elvis to suddenly show up.

He hadn't planned for this at all

Was Elvis still resentful that he hadn't been able to steal Aurelia from him three years ago?

“Damn it!” He cursed, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

Kevin said softly, “Elvis is also a ladies’ man. I'm worried that in a fit of pique, your wife might dosomething unpredictable.”

A sharp pain crossed Leopold's heart, this was his worst fear.

"Have the bodyguards keep a close eye on her, if anything unusual happens, report to meimmediately.”

“Yes.” Kevin nodded, cautiously adding, “Aren’t you going home tonight?”

Leopold rubbed his aching temples, a frown on his face.

Aurelia’s misunderstanding of him had deepened, and she probably hated him now. He didn’t wantto see her resentful eyes, for fear that the heartache would kill him.

“Forget it, I'll stay here.”
