The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold) novel Chapter 360

Chapter 360 

A month later. 

On Christmas day, according to the Stirling family tradition, all the members of the Stirling family in Elysium must gather at the Stirling Mansion for the family feast. No one could be absent. 

Aurelia was playing catch with the kids in the yard when she saw Arnold step in. 

He had been away for a while, shooting a new album, so she hadn’t seen him for a while. 

In fact, Arnold had left to clear his head, unable to process the disgusting and shameless event that had transpired. He didn’t know how to face Aurelia, fearing that once she found out, she might leave him for good. 

Arnold looked thinner and quite exhausted. Aurelia hurried over, “Arnold, are you okay? Did you just get back from the trip and haven’t rested yet?” 

“I’m fine.” 

Her concern made Arnold’s heartache. 

He struggled to maintain his composure and forced a rigid smile towards her, but before it could fully form, it vanished, as if swept away by the cold wind. 

Aurelia noticed his abnormal state but decided not to press further at that moment, so she advised, “Don’t work too hard, and take care of yourself.” 

“Okay.” Arnold’s heart twisted in anguish. He knew she still cared for him, but he’d hurt her over and over again, disappointing her. If she found out about the incident, would she give him another chance? 

At that moment, Leopold walked out of the house, taking Aurelia’s hand, and asked, “Want to join the cousins for some tea and chit–chat?” 

“Sure.” She nodded, smiling at Arnold, “Arnold, I’ll be inside.” She turned and headed into 

the house. 

Arnold watched her leaving as if she’d disappear forever in the blink of an eye. 

At the floor–to–ceiling windows of the tea room, Theresia and Beverley, the daughters of one of Arnold and Leopold’s uncles, witnessed the entire scene. 

“Arnold still loves Aurelia, right?” Theresia said. 

“I think so,” Beverley sighed, “Love can be such a cruel thing. I never thought Arnold, a playboy, would also be trapped by love.” 

“But he married Lisa to save Magnolia, giving up Aurelia,” Theresia said. 

“I heard he’s going through a divorce with Lisa, Beverley shared. 

“Even if he divorces Lisa, it’s too late. Aurelia is back with Leopold, and Leopold isn’t someone to be trifled with. Aurelia was his wife in the first place,” Theresia stated. 

“I heard that Arnold was Aurelia’s first love.” 

“I never thought that Arnold and Leopold would fall in love with the same woman. 

“Perhaps they were born to be rivals.” 

As they were engrossed in their conversation, seeing Aurelia and Leopold approaching. they promptly fell silent. 

Beverley, an avid Tarot card enthusiast, proposed, “Aurelia, want to play some Tarot? I can do a reading for you.” 

“Sure, Aurelia agreed with a smile and sat across Beverley with Leopold
