Chapter 610 "If Leopold decides to replace you and marry someone else, he doesn't need the family council's approval. He can do it all by himself. So, it's the top priority to secure your position as his lawful wife. Forget about the rest.” “And what good is being his lawful wife if my son isn't the heir?" Megan lamented.
“Are you in love with Leopold, or are you only obsessed with the Stirling family's inheritance?" Melissa challenged her with a question.
Megan wanted both. She wanted Leopold's love and the inheritance.
"Of course, | love Leopold, but Aurelia hates my guts. If her child becomes the heir, she won't spare me or my children.” “Aurelia’s been dethroned. What are you worried about? Even if Kane takes over later, you'll still be the matriarch. He can't hurt you,’ Melissa reassured her.
Megan fell silent.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHer ambition was unchanging. No matter how many sons Leopold had, she'd eliminate them all. Only her son was entitled to live.
The day her son was born would be the fall of the other unfortunate offspring.
After returning to her room, Megan just crashed into bed. Exhausted and sleep-deprived from the night before, she needed the rest, Meanwhile, Aurelia got up to bath and was startled to find something amiss with her body.
Something went wrong during the hot sex. The condom had broken.
She almost wished for death until she calculated the dates and breathed a sigh of relief. She was ona safe period. She couldn't be bothered to inform the culprit waiting outside.
Coming out of the bathroom, the man pulled her into his embrace.
“Honey, let's go sailing later and have some fun on the water tonight.
She choked on the suggestion, her face pale. Was this guy some indefatigable love warrior? He wanted her by day and again by night? "Megan's been sticking to you and watching you like a hawk. Aren't you nervous about sneaking around with your ex-wife under her watchful eyes?" Leopold didn't take Megan seriously at all. To him, she was nothing more than a jest.
"Don't worry. Megan won't be on our little sea excursion." Aurelia could already picture Megan's fury when being left alone in the hotel.
Leopold was fishing with William and Skyler on the lower deck of the luxurious yacht.
Aurelia was sunbathing on the upper deck.
Lying on a lounge chair, soaking up the sea breeze, she felt utterly relaxed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMelissa sharply noticed a faint red mark peeking from Aurelia's neckline.
“Aurelia, did you tempt our dear Leopold into sex today?" Aurelia almost spit out her soda, quickly adjusting her top as Melissa's gaze fixed on her neckline.
"Don't get the wrong idea. | just got bitten by a mosquito, and I'm a little allergic." Melissa rolled her eyes, not buying it for a second.
"Don't even try to hide it. The way you walked out of that room, with those wobbly legs. Admit it. You've just been through some tense sex. And | saw Leopold enter your room and stay for over four hours. If you expect me to believe nothing happened, you must think I'm a fool.” Aurelia was speechless. It was all Leopold's fault. He'd been in her for hours, leaving her sore even now. What made matters worse was the protection had failed.
She absolutely couldn't bear Leopold's child at this time. As a woman cast aside, any child she bore would be illegitimate. She couldn't imagine how defeated and inferior the child would be when facing his two older brothers.
"We were in a video conference; she lied.
Melissa scoffed, "Aurelia, the most annoying thing about you is your cunning mind. You do things but don't own up to them, just like when you seduced Elvis." Aurelia replied calmly, "Melissa, a man who's interested in you will pursue you without seduction. And a man who's not interested in you won't bite no matter what you do. | haven't seen Mr. Cooper in ages. He's a career man and looking for a partner who can help him. He appreciated my design skills, and that's why he was interested. If you want to catch his eye, you must show him your capabilities. Otherwise, all your efforts are in vain."
