The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold) novel Chapter 341

Chapter 341 

Leopold’s domineering nature was as unchanging, even the occasional spark of tenderness was fleeting. 

“Leo,” she exhaled in despair. 

Leopold’s thin lips curved into a wicked smile, “You know, calling me honey would be better.” 

Aurelia shot him a pretend annoyed side–glance, “We’re still on a break, remember?” 

And she had every intention to remain in this state until the cooling–off period was over. 

In the living room, Jelena craned her neck to get a better look at the pair, chuckling, “Love is a marathon, not a sprint. The real winner is the one who can last the longest.” 

Jelena had initially rooted for Arnold, her cousin’s first sweetheart, never expecting him to drop out midway. Avery heaved a sigh. Poor Arno must be heartbroken, hoping Aurelia would wait for him to be single again. But destiny waited for no one and once missed, it’d gone forever. 

Jolin had dinner ready. 

As the family was eating, guests arrived. 

It was Belinda, accompanied by Rahul and Perla. 

Zack put down his utensils and stood up, “Mom, you’re in Elysium?” 

Tears welled up in Belinda’s eyes, “It’s been three years, Zack. I don’t know how many more years I’ve left, and how many times I can see you.” 

Zack forced a bitter smile, “Out of your three children, wasn’t I the one you least wanted to 

see?” 

Belinda had no idea of replying to his words. 

Quick to defuse the situation, Rahul changed the subject, “Aurelia is back home, and her husband too. What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. I always knew our Aurelia was a lucky child.” 

Perla stretched her lips into an exaggerated, fake smile, “Indeed, she bore a son in her first pregnancy. Unlike Emma, who only gives birth to two girls, which threatens to wipe out our lineage.” 

Just the thought of Emma made Perla angry, always back–talking and making her angry. 

Jelena rolled her eyes, “Perla, it’s the 21st century. Stop with the ‘sons are better than daughters‘ mindset. We’re not royalty needing an heir. Besides, it’s the man who determines the baby’s gender. If your family lacks a grandson, blame it on Ritchie.”

Perla’s face paled, then flushed, “Mind your own business, you little brat. You’re a year older than Aurelia and still single. Better find a man soon or you’ll die a spinster.” 

Jelena made a face to Perla, then returned to her meal, ignoring her. 

Aurelia helped Kane with a piece of chicken leg, then asked, “What brings you here?” 

Belinda slapped her thigh and cried out again, “Ritchie is in jail. Aurelia, you must help 

him. 

Aurelia knew they must have asked for her. 

“What did he do?” 

“It’s not Ritchie’s fault. Some spoiled rich kids bullied him in the bar, and even planted drugs on him, leading to his arrest,” Perla explained.
