The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold) novel Chapter 398

Chapter 398 

At the iron gate of the grand Stirling Mansion, a fortress of wealth and power, Megan. waited anxiously. 

It took a while before the security guard, who had gone in to report her arrival, returned. 

“I’m sorry, Ms. Megan, Mrs. Stirling has made it clear that she isn’t receiving guests recently.” 

Megan’s heart skipped a beat. “I’m not just any guest,” she protested, “I’m Megan, her future daughter–in–law.” 

The security guard was unmoved. His loyalty was to Jessica only. “You’ll have to leave.” 

Left with no other options, Megan dialed Melissa’s number. 

Before long, Melissa arrived in her car. “Hop in, Megan. I’ll take 

you inside.” 

Melissa was wholeheartedly in favor of Megan marrying into the Stirling family and couldn’t wait to see Leopold abandon Aurelia, a woman she considered low class. 

In her opinion, the cheap woman Aurelia should be kept under the heel of high society, never given a chance to rise. 

What she didn’t anticipate, however, was the security guard’s refusal to open the gate. 

“Mrs. Stirling has given strict instructions that Ms. Megan can’t set foot in the Stirling Mansion without her permission. If you insist on bringing her in, Ms. Melissa, you are also denied entry.” 

“Excuse me?” 

Infuriated and at a loss, Melissa had no choice but to ask Megan to wait outside while she went in to negotiate with her mother and convince her to bend the rules. 

In the mansion, Jessica was enjoying a cup of coffee and listening to music. 

As the only person privy to the recent events, she was entrusted to maintain order in the Stirling family and protect Kane. 

Despite her dislike for Aurelia, she was never ambiguous when it was about something. critical. 

Melissa entered the house, frustration clear on her face. “Mother, Megan is waiting outside. She wants to see you. Why won’t you meet with her? I thought you liked her.” 

Jessica cast her a weary glance. “You’d do well not to meddle in her affairs. She’s not the Megan we knew before.” 

Melissa pouted dismissively. “None of that matters. The point is that Leopold still loves

her and wants to marry her. We should be supporting him.” 

“If your grandparents and grandaunts had the same misguided thinking as you, Magnolia would be the lady of this house, not me.” The sound of her coffee cup slamming on the table echoed through the room, causing Melissa to flinch. 

“Do you mean we should support Aurelia? She shamed herself and Leopold by engaging in an affair with Arnold. She has no right to be the matriarch of the Stirling family.” 

“You know as well as I do that Aurelia left Leopold because of the turmoil caused by our enemies, which led to Liam’s death. It breaks my heart every time I think of my poor murdered grandson.”
