Chapter 279 

Leopold’s face was slightly overcast. 

She was probably hoping for a divorce to be with Arnold, wasn’t she? 

When he entered the room, Jolin, quite wisely, left them alone. 

Aurelia lay back on the bed and sighed, glancing at him, “When are we going to get the paperwork done?” 

A flash of anger appeared on his face. Of course, she was thinking about that. 

He walked over to the kitchen counter, got himself a glass of water, and took a large gulp to cool down. 

“In the Stirling family, regardless of the type of marriage, once it’s registered, it must follow the family rules. I am the current master of the Stirling family, and you are the matriarch. For a divorce between the master and the matriarch, we must hold a family meeting, with two–thirds of the family members approving, and there must be a serious fault on the part of the matriarch!” 

His tone seemed casual, but every word was squeezed out through clenched teeth. 

Aurelia was stunned, her long, thick eyelashes slowly drooping. 

She had made a mistake, not protecting their child, an unforgivable one! 

“Can we start the paperwork before the family meeting? Is that possible?” 

His gaze hardened, icy and deep, “If the master violates the family rule, the punishment will be severe. You want me to be punished?” 

Aurelia took a sharp breath. No wonder Mr. Chad had struggled to get a divorce. These procedures were too complicated. 

“When are you planning to hold the family meeting?” 

His deep eyes glinted, inscrutable. 

“On the day of the baby’s christening.” 

“Oh,” she replied softly. 

He was definitely more eager to divorce than she was, he just didn’t show it. 

After all, as the master of the family, he had to follow the rules. 

Seeing her finally show a hint of relief, as if she were about to be released, the deep freeze in Leopold’s eyes deepened. He drained the glass, turned, and walked out, in case he lost control and snapped at her. 

As he opened the door, he ran into Jolin. She hadn’t left, but was listening at the door. 

Hearing her daughter mention divorce again, she was close to passing out. 

Seeing Leopold come out, she pulled him aside, “Leopold, Aurelia is still grieving. She’s just talking out of anger. Please don’t take it to heart and be patient with her. And please, don’t impulsively divorce.” 

“Then you should talk to her.” Leopold said in a low voice. 

Jolin patted his shoulder, “Don’t worry, as long as you don’t agree, I won’t let Aurelia make the decision on 

her own.” 

Leopold went to the yard to see the baby. 

Jolin prepared some nutritious sustenance, and brought it into the room. 

“Aurelia, it’s just us now, so I’ll be straightforward with you. You are not allowed to divorce. If you dare to divorce, I’ll never contact you again!”
