The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold) novel Chapter 608

Chapter 608

Aurelia felt sleepy as she lounged in her room, thinking of a quick nap to recharge. But as she drifted on the edge of sleep, a presence slipped beside her, jolting her awake. She turned to find Leopold's strikingly handsome face inches from hers.
