The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold) novel Chapter 667

Chapter 667

Jessica gently patted Aurelia’s hand. "You and Leopold have been through the wringer, my dear. It must be a test from the heavens. After every storm comes a calm."

Aurelia wasn't sure if she and Leopold could withstand the test. After all, those who can stay true through thick and thin are as rare as hen's teeth.

When times are tough, everyone looks after their own self-interest.

In difficult times, a poor couple can only share their struggles; the dream of sharing sweet success feels unattainable. For a middle-aged man, his ultimate wish is to climb up the social ladder, strike gold, and if luck permits, maybe even trade his old wife for a younger model.

“Don't worry, my dear. I'll keep our little Kane safe,’ Jessica whispered.

After Aurelia stepped out, she headed to Kane's room.

Leopold was busy tweaking a robot for Kane.
