The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold) novel Chapter 1260

Aurelia traced a teasing circle on his chest with her fingertip and said with a playful lilt, "So you better not turn out like him."

Leopold caught her hand, "I'm just an ordinary guy, and I only have eyes for you."

She gave him a coquettish side-eye, "How could an ordinary man only have eyes for me?"

"It's loyal," he said with a sly grin spreading across his lips.

Aurelia couldn't help but giggle at that, wrapping her arms around his neck, "Well, if it's that well-behaved, I guess I'll have to take extra good care of it."

Leopold responded with a soft kiss on her lips.

"Babe, we've got to be honest with each other. No secrets, no lies, okay?" he said earnestly.

Aurelia blinked, sensing an undertone in his words. Maybe it was because she had her own secrets to guard.

"What if I had to lie? Would you forgive me?"

"Of course, you're my only wife. What choice would I have? But it would still break my heart," Leopold admitted openly.

Aurelia felt a wave of unease.

She longed to reveal the truth about William, the words always teetering on the tip of her tongue. But she had promised William, and she couldn't let him down. He was too sensitive.

Deciding to steer away from the conversation, she turned off the TV and said, "I'm getting sleepy. Wake me up when it's time for dinner."

Leopold let out a weary sigh as he tucked her in. The enigma that was William still loomed large in his heart. He would wait for the day she was ready to tell the truth.

After making sure she was comfortable, he left the room and headed to the hall where William emerged from the bathroom.

Leopold swooped the boy up onto his shoulders, "Buddy, we need to talk."

"About what?" William asked, puzzled.

Leopold led him to the study.
