The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold) novel Chapter 497

Chapter 497 

Jessica looked shocked. “You don’t think…” 

She stopped waving her hand dismissively. “No, I’ve met the boy. He’s timid and stutters a bit. In no way he’s the sharpest tool in the shed. He couldn’t have done such a thing. The Heninger family wouldn’t allow it 

Leopold’s eyes deepened, bottomless and inscrutable. “I’ll accompany you back to the Heninger’s residence for Grandma’s 90th birthday. We’ll meet him then.” 

“Very well” Jessica nodded approvingly. 

At that moment, the butler announced Melissa’s arrival. 

Leopold had forbidden her from freely entering the Stirling Mansion. She could only enter with permission and stay on the first floor like a guest. 

Jessica instructed the butler to let her in. 

Melissa was on the verge of despair. Since Leopold froze her family’s trust fund, she had been living on borrowed money with her debts piling up. 

When she entered, she began to complain, “Mom, when will my allowance be reinstated? I’m nearly out of money for food.” 

Jessica stared at her. “If you can’t afford food, find a job. Stop lazing around.” 

Melissa’s eyes welled up with tears as she said, “Mom, my health condition stops me from getting up early. If I get up early, I’ll have no energy for the rest of the day.” 

“Save your breath. Begging won’t help.” Leopold put down his coffee cup, his gaze cold and sharp as a blade. The trust fund was under his control. Without his order, no one else’s words held any sway. 

Melissa pretended to be poor right there. “Are you trying to starve your sister to death?” 

“I have many sisters. Your presence or absence won’t make a difference,” Leopold’s tone was chilling, devoid of warmth. Even the sunlight that streamed in seemed to freeze in its presence 

Melissa shivered at his words. 

“What do I have to do to get my allowance back?” 

Leopold remained impassive. “You have two choices now. First, get a job. Second, get married and find a man to support you.” 

She was too naive and easily manipulated. Only with no money would she behave. 

Melissa broke down into sobs. “You think I don’t want to get married? It’s that blind fool

Elvis who doesn’t want me. He’d rather have that slut Aurelia than me. He’s trying to drive me to my grave.” 

A dark, menacing aura rose from Leopold’s handsome face. “If you dare to insult Aurelia again, I’ll freeze your trust fund indefinitely.” 

Melissa hated Aurelia with a burning passion. 

She believed a girl like Aurelia should be trampled under her feet and crushed to bits, but no matter how hard she tried, Aurelia kept climbing higher and higher, basking in glory.
