The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold) novel Chapter 23

Chapter 23 

Her face turned a shade paler, her heart trembling in fearI don’t have a passport. I never planned to go abroad, so I didn’t get oneAurelia said

She glanced at the steak on Leopold’s plate, quickly using it as a diversion, I’m not a big fan of steak. If you send me abroad, I’ll starve to death.” 

He wouldn’t want to be responsible for three deaths, would he

Leopold’s thin lips curled into a derisive smile, I thought you weren’t picky, easy to feed” 

I’m not picky, as long as it’s homemade food, I can eat anything. I just can’t handle some certain types of food. That’s why I’ll never go abroad in my life, no matter how much you beg or force me.Aurelia spoke earnestly, indirectly making her stance clear

Leopold looked at her with an odd expression, seemingly finding her peculiar, So, you’re not planning to go to the Paris Jewelry Show?” 

What

Aurelia was taken aback. She almost forgot about the event, one of the largest exhibitions worldwide. Astral Enterprises, a renowned jewelry conglomerate, participated in every edition. And it was a dream of hers to 

attend

But if she went, would she be forcibly detained and never be able to return

She was torn. Her fingers were constantly fiddling on the table, caught in the most challenging decision of 

her life

Leopold took in her strange reaction

Your body isn’t suited for longdistance travel, better let Kelly go.” Leopold said

I can do it.She blurted out, as if stung

This was a onceinalifetime opportunity, and she didn’t want to miss it

The reason Kelly was still standing was firstly because a new product had just been released. If a plagiarism scandal broke out, it would seriously affect the sales of the new product. Secondly, she had enough reputation in the jewelry world. To replace her, an outstanding opportunity was needed

The Jewelry Show is next month. I have just passed the critical period and can fly. Paris is cold. I’ll wear a coat, all wrapped up. No one will be able to tell, so there’s no need to worry.” Aurelia said

She held onto a glimmer of hope, wanting to take a gamble. Perhaps Elowen was just trying to scare her

Leopold’s deep, dark eyes shone mysteriously under the light. You pick the staff from your department to go with youLeopold said

OkayAurelia nodded with a beaming smile, quickly finishing her meal, Mr. Leopold, I’ll get back to work now, and get my passport tomorrow” 

Watching her leave, Leopold’s lips curled into a sly smile. Although she was a bit scheming, she was a model employee for the company

Back in his office, he took a small sip of his Earl Grey tea. Kevin whispered, The arrangements have been made in Switzerland. When the time comes, we’ll quietly transfer Ms. Aurelia from Paris to Switzerland for a secret delivery” 

He nodded slightly, his eyes gradually darkening

Back at her desk, Aurelia couldn’t help but fantasize about her trip to Paris

Paris, the city of art, was a dream destination for every artist. Notre Dame, the Louvre, Eiffel Tower, and Palace of Versailles. All were masterpieces of art. Most importantly, she could seize this opportunity to showcase her talents

Then, a client from the Haute Couture Department came in. He wanted a custom diamond necklace and specifically requested Aurelia to design it

Aurelia was surprised to see it was Arnold. She escorted him to the meeting room. Is it a gift for your girlfriend?Aurelia asked
