Wishing you all the best, and may you continue to accompany in the future <3 Almost everyone thought that Aurelia would get back together with Arnold, perhaps even Aurelia herself entertained the thought.

Aurelia had been preoccupied with thoughts of Megan, and after the banquet at the Stirling Mansion, she headed straight to Leopold's room.
"Did you see Megan's child? Was it really switched?" The effects of the evening's festivities had left Leopold in a sour mood. He swirled the teacup in his hand and muttered, "I've sent his hair to get the DNA samples tested." Aurelia was almost certain the child wasn't the one Megan had birthed.
The AK Group had meticulously placed Megan by Leopold's side for a classic bait and switch.
If anything happened to Kane, this child would be Leopold's only legitimate son. Then, with Geoffrey sneakily taking over as regent in Skyler's stead, the Stirling family would effectively be under their control.
It was a perfect plan. But they had underestimated Leopold, Jessica and her. She was known for her wild imagination, and there wasn't a plot or schshe couldn't fathom.

Aurelia said with anger, "If he's yours, it means you're a liar. All that talk about having no other children, about remaining faithful to me, and it's all just deceit. I'll never trust you again. I'm cutting all ties with you." Leopold stretched out an arm of steel, pulling her into his embrace, his finger hooking under her chin, "When have you ever trusted me?" Aurelia's almond-shaped eyes widened with fury, "You abandonedto mess around with a mistress, how could you ever be trustworthy? Do you think I'm a fool?" A flush of red crept into Leopold's brow, "You're so magnanimous, aren't you? Treating Nova as your own? You can accept Arnold's bastard child, but not mine?" Aurelia's anger flared uncontrollably, "I can accept Nova because Lisa never harmedor Kane. Megan, on the other hand, plotted to killand Kane. My hatred for her knows no bounds. You and Megan had sex, and it's disgusting. You're not to touchever again." In a fit of rage, she pried his hand away and kicked wildly at his shins. She was livid, beyond any chance of forgiving him.
Leopold suddenly leaned forward, pressing her down onto the sofa, his large hands grasping her flailing ones and pinning them above her head.
"If you had the slightest bit of trust in me, you wouldn't think I'd touch someone as vile as Megan." "If you never touched her, why did you forceto divorce you and marry her?" Aurelia coldly demanded, her face twisted with mocking scorn.
Leopold was tired of this feeling as if he had a deep grievance he couldn't voice. He took a deep breath, "The reason I'll let you know eventually." Aurelia stared at him unblinkingly, her gaze sharp, "Just tellthe truth. Is Megan's child really yours?" "I promised you, no other children. | won't break my word," he said decisively, his eyes earnest and steady.
Aurelia was confused. If the child wasn't his, then whose was it? It was improbable that Megan would be intimate with anyone other than him. She dreamt of bearing the Stirling family heir, and getting involved with someone else would be like shooting herself in the foot, maybe even worse.
So, had she been played by Leopold? "If that child has indeed been switched, would you save him? Regardless, he's innocent. Megan's sins shouldn't be laid upon him." Leopold flicked her forehead, "Overflowing with sympathy again?"
