The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold)
Chapter 422

Chapter 422

Leopold must have lost his mind to have left Aurelia for Megan. He was sure Leopold would soonregret his decision. But he wouldn't give Leopold the chance to backtrack.

Unnoticed in a shadowy corner nearby, a pair of eyes remained fixed on Aurelia, almost bleedingwith intensity.

Leopold had donned a high-tech mask, which had altered his facial features. So, his identityremained unknown.

Aurelia’s elusiveness made him anxious, his emotions teetering on the edge of control.

Suddenly, Aurelia lost her balance and started to fall backward. He jolted upright from his chair.But he was too far to hold her.

Elvis, quick on his feet, had already wrapped an arm around her slender waist and pulled her back tosafety.

"Are you okay?"

“Yeah. I think I might be a little tipsy.” She gave a light smile, her eyes sparkling like crescent moons.Elvis felt a bit entranced.

Even after she regained her balance, his arm still lingered around her.

She was as soft as velvet. Elvis couldn't bear to let go, wanting to hold her a little longer.

It was the first time he'd felt such a strong desire towards a woman.

A spark of anger flashed in Leopold's eyes. His fists clenched involuntarily, ready to punch Elvis andtake back his woman, but someone else moved faster. Another hand grabbed Aurelia’s and pulledher into his arms.

Surprised, Aurelia turned around to see Arnold's handsome face.

"Arnold? What are you doing here?”

"You're having a bachelorette party. Of course, I must come.”

Arnold had been at a photo shoot when he heard the news and immediately dropped everything torush over. Luckily, he was just in time to prevent Elvis from making any

moves.

Jelena, spotting Arnold, pulled a face. She had intentionally not invited him, considering he was stillmarried, putting the divorce up in the air.

Elvis, on the other hand, was the most eligible bachelor in Elysium, a real catch.

So, she wanted to set up Aurelia with Elvis.

Chapter 422

Arnold and Elvis looked straight at each other, the tension palpable.

Everyone's attention subtly shifted towards them.

Jelena quickly tried to diffuse the situation, suggesting they take a break and get some drinks.Aurelia, e bit drunk, didn't notice the tension. She slumped onto a couch, grabbed a glass

of water, and drank it. “I need to use the restroom.”

As she walked towards the hallway, a man in the corner got up quietly.

While she was returning from the restroom and passing by a lounge, the door suddenly swungopen, and a hand pulled her inside.

She was terrified, but her fear turned into anger when she recognized the man.

For a moment, she thought she must be seeing things. She rubbed her eyes hard, but his faceremained the same. It was indeed him.

“Leopold, what the hell are you doing here?”

Of course, he was there for his ex-wife. “You're letting loose just after our divorce?”

Aurelia scoffed. “What's it to you? We're done. Even if I take a man to my bed tonight, it's none ofyour business!”

Leopold was torn between rationality and madness, on the verge of breaking down.

"Are you doing this to get back at me?”

Aurelia gave a cold laugh. “Don't flatter yourself. I've never loved you. Now that we're divorced,you're nothing to me.” She paused, giving him a chilling look. “Did you see it? All the singlegentlemen attending the party were here for me. I am young and gorgeous. There's a line of menwanting to hit on me. Who do you think you are now? You're just my ex-husband!”
