Chapter 189
“Jelena, the CEO types aren’t just domineering, they’re also arrogant and womanizing. You won’t find happiness with them.”
Jelena chuckled, “And how would you know? You’ve never dated a CEO. You’re just imagining things!”
Avery pouted, “I may not have dated one, but I’ve seen them. My boss is a prime example of a playboy. He’s engaged, yet he flirts with other women.”
Jelena paused. She remembered Aurelia mentioning her boss was Fredric’s brother, the renowned Mr. Leopold from the social elite.
“I’ve heard about Mr. Leopold’s engagement. I heard it was arranged by Chad Stirling and he isn’t really in love with his fiancée. The woman he truly loved is no longer alive.”
Aurelia waved her hands, “Let’s not get carried away. We should stay out of our bosses‘ business.”
She picked up an apple, sliced it and handed it to Jelena. “Jelena, do you know Elvis Cooper, the CEO of Ethereal Gems? One of Elysium’s most eligible bachelors, he’s tall, handsome, and most importantly, he’s disciplined and maintains a high moral standard. He’s the fighter jet among the CEOS. Maybe I could introduce you to him?”
Jelena squinted at her, “If he’s such a great catch, why aren’t you keeping him for yourself?”
“She’s got someone else in mind.” Avery blurted out.
Jelena was instantly curious, “Who? Do you have a picture? Let me see! Anyone who can catch Aurelia’s eye must indeed be special.”
Aurelia sighed at her brother’s uncensored remarks, “Don’t listen to Avery’s nonsense, he’s just a good friend.”
Avery made a face, “They’re in the ‘more than friends, less than lovers‘ phase. I’ll tell you more when they’re officially together.”
Jelena hugged Aurelia, “You do need a man in your life, Aurelia. It’s time to end your long singlehood.”
Aurelia managed a wry smile. Despite her single status, she was about to become a mother.
Night fell over the city. Leopold drove aimlessly around town, his mind in turmoil.
He ended up outside their apartment. He could neither eat nor do anything else. He only wanted to “teach a lesson” to the woman who was inexplicably giving him the cold shoulder.
