The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold) novel Chapter 493

Chapter 493 

“But, he only has three illegitimate sons, not a single illegitimate daughter. That seems odd.” 

With a deep voice, Arnold said, “Well, my father did have illegitimate daughters, but according to the Stirling family rules, they aren’t considered family. My older brother has a sister who lives abroad with him. It takes an astronomical amount of wealth to establish such a big organization. These girls, the so–called illegitimate daughters, sans any family fortune, live ordinary lives. They wouldn’t have such fiscal capacity, not by a long shot.s.” 

Aurelia gasped quietly. The Stirling family’s preference for boys over girls was way too severe. Medieval princesses lost in the civilian world could still return to the palace to recognize their kin. However, the Stirling family just washed their hands off their illegitimate daughters, leaving them to fend for themselves. Wasn’t that too cruel? 

As she was pondering, Arnold’s voice came again. “The Stirling family wouldn’t leave their sons outside uncared unless…” He paused with a mysterious smile on his face. 

“I heard a rumor that during Jessica’s pregnancy, her sister came to look after her. But my father had an affair with Jessica’s sister, causing Jessica to have a miscarriage. That was her first child, a son. It’s said that Jessica’s sister was also pregnant, but their family – Heninger family has taken her away by force. And since then, she hasn’t set foot in Elysium.” 

Aurelia was stunned. Jessica was so pathetic that even her sister had betrayed her. 

There’s an old saying: ‘don’t foul your own doorstep,’ but it seemed Mr. Chad just couldn’t keep his pants zipped. No wonder his kidneys gave out, and even a transplant couldn’t save him. 

“Was the baby born?” 

“I don’t know. The Heninger family wouldn’t tell the Stirling family even if the baby was born and would secretly raise the child overseas,” Arnold said. 

“Does Leopold know about this?” 

I’m not sure. Jessica probably didn’t tell him about such a family scandal,” Arnold replied. Aurelia sighed. It was indeed a difficult thing to talk about. 

Jessica had a sad life. She was a gorgeous and noble lady but ended up marrying a playboy. Her marriage was unhappy. 

I’ve also found some clues,” she said, telling him about Kerry and the Twilight Club. 

Amold stroked his chin: I’ve heard about Kerry before. She’s from Verdecalma and 

erried the owner of the Twilight Club. After the owner’s death, she took over the club 

Aurelia whispered, “I’ve heard the owner suddenly fe 

poisoned.” 

Arnold gently patted her head. “I’ll send someone to investigate Kerry in the dark. You’d better stay away from Twilight Club. It’s too dangerous.” 

He didn’t want her to be in danger. He had failed to protect her three years ago and almost lost her. The thought still haunted him. 

She smiled faintly. “Don’t worry. I will protect myself. I won’t make the same mistake twice.” 

“Take a bodyguard wherever you go. Never act alone,” Arnold warned her. 

His worst fear was her getting caught up in Leopold’s troubles. If someone wanted to get at Leopold, they would target the people close to him, and she was a prime target.
