The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold) novel Chapter 362

Chapter 362 

A youthful voice chimed in from the bushes, “Uncle Leopold, are you guys playing the kiss game again?” 

Leopold swiveled his head and spotted Nina. Where did she pop up from this time? She was always appearing out of nowhere. 

“Weren’t you guys feeding the fish by the pond? How did you end up here all by yourself?” 

“All the fish are full.” Nina pulled a funny face. 

Kane and Mira also scampered over from not far away. 

“Nina, Mira, let’s go back and have some pastries. Let’s not disturb Mom and Dad.” Kane was quite sensible for his age. 

Nina turned her big eyes and asked, “Uncle Leopold, you get babies from playing the kiss game, right?” 

Leopold choked a bit, “Just go back and have some pastries.” 

Nina stuck out her tongue and led her siblings towards the garden exit. 

“Playing the kiss game does make babies. Kane. Your mom is going to have a baby. Do you want a brother or a sister?” 

“A sister,” Kane replied without missing a beat, already having a brother. 

“Then I hope you get a little sister.” Nina laughed. 

Aurelia overheard their conversation from not far away and was speechless. She shot Leopold a glaring look before walking away. Leopold was left a bit helpless, but he did want a daughter, preferably like Aurelia. 

The family feast had been prepared. 

Aurelia sat with Kane by Leopold’s side, while Arnold was seated diagonally across from her. 

Sheryl arranged for Lisa to sit next to him, “Arnold, affection can be cultivated. Be nicer to Lisa.” 

Arnold shot Lisa a disgusted look and coldly said, “My lawyer has already drafted the divorce papers. I will divorce Lisa tomorrow.” 

His voice was neither high nor low, but almost everyone in the dining room heard it, causing an uproar. 

“You can’t divorce me, because I’m pregnant.” Lisa bit her lip. 

A sharp pang shot through Arnold’s heart and he nearly jumped from his seat, “That’s 

impossible!” 

“We had sex before. Isn’t it normal that I’m pregnant?” Lisa looked at him pitifully. 

Arnold’s face turned ghastly pale, and even his lips seemed to turn blue. Her every word was like a kick, sending him plummeting into the abyss. He felt extremely embarrassed and didn’t dare look at Aurelia, afraid of seeing the disappointment in her eyes. 

Aurelia’s shoulders slightly trembled. She was indeed taken aback, not expecting Arnold and Lisa to be intimate so soon. 

Suddenly, Leopold’s hand reached over and held hers. Was he worried she would lose her composure? How could that be? 

Arnold was going to have his child. She would bless him, and be happy for him. 

Jessica spoke, “Lisa, take good care of yourself and the baby. Marriage is not child’s play. Both of you should calm down. We can discuss other matters after the baby is born.” 

Arnold’s body stiffened like a stone. He mechanically stood up from his chair, “Jessica, I’m not feeling well. I’ll leave first.” 

Without waiting for Jessica’s response, he staggered away. 

Jessica sighed and signaled everyone to continue eating. 

Sheryl patted Lisa’s shoulder, “Arnold probably isn’t ready to be a father yet. Give him some time.” 

Lisa nodded, “It’s okay. I’ll wait for him.” She subconsciously glanced at Aurelia, who took a sip of her soup and looked calm. 

At this moment, the only thing Aurelia could do was to distance herself from the situation. Leopold served her a piece of abalone, “Eat more.” 

“Thank you.” She smiled and served him a piece of lobster, and then a chicken drumstick for Kane. 

Right now, Kane was silently worrying about William, who feared Lisa having children the most. If he knew about this, he would surely be upset. 

In the evening, Aurelia returned to the Rosewood Manor when she received a call from William, who was at Arnold’s place. 

She headed over to pick up William. 

Arnold had been waiting for her, with countless explanations in his mind. But once he laid eyes on her, the words lodged in his throat. 

“Aurelia…” 

She knew he had something to say, so she asked Abbey to take William home first. 

Once they were gone, she gave a smile and said, “Congratulations, Brother Arnold!” 

Her words erected a chasm between them, shattering Arnold’s heart to pieces.
