The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold) novel Chapter 448

Chapter 448 

Elvis was a novice. Arnold had been a novice too, but during their time in Goldstone, Aurelia had guided him into a pro. 

William was also a player. The three of them, as a family, would often play a game of poker together. 

Aurelia took a seat next to Elvis, guiding him. 

“Mr. Cooper, you’ve got a good hand this round, you could call the shots.” 

Elvis keenly noticed the change in her address, which left him a bit downcast, but that was okay. He would work hard to bridge the gap between them. 

“With a strategist like you by my side, this game is in the bag.” 

“Well, don’t be so sure, my hand is not too shabby either,” Avery quipped with a grin. 

Arnold felt a twinge of jealousy, not liking the sight of Aurelia sitting next to Elvis. 

Upstairs, William led Kane into his room. 

Kane blinked, seemingly catching on to something. “William, if mom marries Mr. Cooper, will you move with her, or stay with Dad?” 

“I’d definitely stay with Dad,” replied William without hesitation. 

“But wouldn’t you have to live with your stepmom then? She might even have a baby brother for you.” 

William made a face, “Dad wouldn’t live with Lisa, he even had her go to the hospital for surgery so she wouldn’t have a baby. She got scared and ran back to Freysland and 

hasn’t dared return.‘ 

One day, he had been hiding at the staircase and saw Dad dragging Lisa, intent on taking her to the hospital. She was crying her eyes out, clutching the leg of a table. Grandma Magnolia had to come and stop Dad, taking Lisa away with her. 

Kane was taken aback, “Your stepmom went back to Freysland?” 

William nodded, “Yeah, if she hadn’t hidden herself, Dad would’ve divorced her long ago.” 

Kane sighed. If mom married Arnold, she would still be a part of the Stirling family and could frequently visit the Stirling Mansion. But if she married Mr. Cooper, she would no longer come to the Stirling Mansion. His chances to see her would be even fewer. 

Lost in his thoughts, William voiced his wonder, “Why is the world of adults so complicated?” 

“Maybe because our fathers aren’t ordinary people, their world is complicated.”

Kane closed the door and the curtains as he spoke. 

He took off William’s mask, revealing a face identical to his own. 

“Why do you think we look exactly alike?” 

William pulled a face, “Because we were born to the same mommy, duh.” 

“But we don’t look like mom.” Kane said quietly, muffling his voice and lowering it to a whisper. 

“I heard from Laura that I have a twin brother who was kidnapped the moment he was born. Dad and mom separated just to find him.” Kane said. 

William moved to the desk, starting to fiddle with his model cars, seemingly not reacting to Kane’s words at all, as if he hadn’t heard them. 

Kane walked over, “Are you even listening to me?”
