The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold) novel Chapter 878

Leopold snorted with a touch of arrogance, "What difference does it make what they think? It's what I think that matters."

Aurelia still couldn't wrap her head around it. He was surrounded by a bevy of women, each more stunning and curvaceous than the last, throwing themselves at him. Could he really be unaffected?

"How do you resist the advances and temptations of such beauties?" she asked.

He cocked an eyebrow, with a mocking glint in his eye, "Women I'm not interested in are just air to me."

Aurelia took a deep breath, fearing the day she, too, might become air.

She still believed he once had feelings for Megan, but now that he despised her. The past dream lover had turned to air.

"With your hormones raging, how do you deal with physical needs? Are you sure you have never had a fling with others?"

Leopold choked on her question, coughing lightly with a mix of amusement and exasperation, "I only have those needs when I see you."

Usually, his hormones were as still as a frozen pond, completely dormant.

Aurelia pulled a face. She knew her worth well enough, even if she was fairly attractive, she wasn't that irresistible.

"Are you trying to sweet-talk me because you want to remarry?"

"Can't you trust me even a little?"

He had opened his heart to her, been honest and forthright, and yet she still doubted him.

Aurelia lowered her gaze. The thought was too overwhelming, too shocking, too incredible, and she was flattered beyond belief.

Deep down, of course, she wanted to believe him. Who doesn't want to be the sole desire of their beloved?

But chances were that he was just sweet-talking her was ninety-nine percent.

Even Mr. Leopold, high and mighty, imperious and authoritative, had learned how to woo a woman.

She yawned.
