The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold)
Chapter 417

Chapter 417

Her tone was sharp, like steel needles, relentlessly piercing into Leopold's chest, turning

his heart into a sieve full of holes.

The thought of Elvis coveting her behind the scenes made him more irritable.

"Are you secretly looking for a new catch behind my back?”

She scoffed. “What if I am? What if I'm not? What's it to you?”

What she hated the most was his double standards. It was okay for him to mess around

with other women, but not for her to be friends with another man.

He could do as he pleased, yet he imposed all the prohibitions on her.

Leopold walked over, looking down at her from a high position. “Don’t blame me for not warningyou. In the Stirling family, only men can sleep around, but women must adhere to the virtues of awife."

“You're kicking me out, anyway. Why should I care about your “virtues of a wife'?"

Aurelia put on a strange but cunning smile. “I've done a rough calculation. We've been married forfour years. According to your rocket-speed income, I should be entitled to billions, right? The lasttime you gave me the divorce papers, I didn't read them. I hope I won't be shortchanged even apenny. Don't think you can fool me when it's about money.” She leaned back on the sofa, sippingon her milk. “After the divorce, I'll be a billionaire, who is young and beautiful. The guys chasing mewill be too many to count. I can have anyone I want. Even if you wanted me back, I wouldn't giveyou a second look.”

A nerve in Leopold's heart was twitching violently.

Although he felt she was deliberately provoking him, one thing was undeniable. She wouldn't beshort of admirers. “If you truly love Kane, you should behave yourself.”

She snorted softly. “Once I am divorced, I'll be single again. Isnt getting a new boyfriend a normalthing? What's wrong with that?”

Leopold leaned forward, his hands resting on the back of the sofa, creating a sense of oppression. “Idon't care who you see, but it can't be Elvis!”

She looked up at him, meeting his gaze coldly. “Why?”

“Ethereal Gems and Astral Enterprises are competitors. As the design director of Astral Enterprises,you should avoid any suspicions.” His tone was full of warning.

But Aurelia just wanted to defy him, come what may.

“If Elvis is willing to marry me, I'll divorce you immediately and marry him without

hesitation. As for work, I can quit Astral Enterprises and jump ship to Ethereal Gems. Elvis is sohandsome, and the Cooper family is only second to the Stirling family in Elysium. I can seamlesslytransition from being the lady of the Stirling family to the lady of the Cooper family. How nice!”She blurted out without thinking and lost her mind.

After saying this, she burst out laughing. Her laughter exploded in Leopold's ears like fireworks,startling him.

He believed she was capable of doing it. There was nothing this audacious woman wouldn't do.He took a deep breath, straightened up, walked to the table, poured a glass of water, and drank itall in one gulp, forcing himself to stay calm.

Soon, he had put away all his emotions and wore an icy expression.

“What about Arnold? I thought you loved him very much. Have you moved on so quickly?”

She heaved a heavy sigh. “I do love Arnold. He's wonderful. He's the one who loves me the mostand treats me the best in this world. But he's already married now. We're destined to be star—crossed lovers.”

She spoke with anger flashing across her face, “This is all your fault. If you had agreed to thedivorce, I would have married Arnold long ago, returned to our home in Goldstone, and started ahappy life again. He wouldn't have married someone else. You ruined my happiness. You're a jerk.So, don't expect to get what you want.”
