The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold) novel Chapter 1032

Upon hearing those words, Jessica couldn't help but steal a glance at Leopold. His lips tightened, each syllable spoken by Aurelia sounding like nails on a chalkboard to him.

What did she mean by that? Did she think he didn't love her enough, or that she didn't love him at all?

"What do you think true love is?" he asked.

Aurelia said indifferently, "True love is, I suppose, putting her first at all times. Through thick and thin, with undivided devotion, even if one passes away, the other wouldn't dream of remarrying."

Leopold frowned slightly, "Do you think I'm incapable of that?"

Aurelia scoffed internally but kept her outward composure, "We're still young, and we haven't faced the real tests yet."

A bitter smile crossed Leopold's handsome face, "We've been through enough, haven't we?"

Wasn't the torment he endured sufficient? Was he really such a disappointment that she couldn't feel a shred of love from him?

Aurelia didn't respond, bowing her head to focus on her breakfast, acting as if she hadn't heard him, or perhaps deliberately ignoring his words.

They had indeed been through a lot, but all it had brought her was pain and disappointment, without a hint of feeling treasured or cared for.

Now, even after their reconciliation, disappointment was all she felt.

The silence weighed heavily on Leopold, making even the luxurious taste of his soup seem bland.

After breakfast, Aurelia dropped Kane off at school and ran into Arnold by the gates.

William and Kane walked hand in hand into the schoolyard.

Aurelia told the driver to head back and got into Arnold's car.

She couldn't chat much with Arnold on WhatsApp the day before with Leopold around, but now was the perfect opportunity for a proper conversation.
