The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold) novel Chapter 998

"Sorry, Arnold, I just feel...this is the best for both of us."

Arnold didn't see it that way. He loved her more than Leopold ever could, and he was the one who could truly make her happy.

"Is this about Kane?"

Aurelia hung her head, with her voice barely above a whisper. "Leopold had to divorce me to save me. His marriage to Megan was just a sham."

A nerve in Arnold's heart twisted with a vicious snap.

Leopold's marriage was a sham, yet he had genuinely tied the knot with Lisa and they had a child together.

It was his own doing and he had shattered the bond between them with his bare hands.

Arnold should have divorced Lisa sooner, instead of dragging it out until now.

Then she wouldn't be worried about Lisa and their daughter, Nova.

He slumped into the couch, cradling his head in his hands, with his eyes slowly reddening.

"Tomorrow, I'll go and file for divorce from Lisa."

Aurelia was taken aback. "Arnold, give Lisa a chance. She loves you. Do it for Nova's sake," she pleaded.

But Arnold harbored only resentment for Lisa. If it hadn't been for her conspiring with Magnolia to deceive him, he wouldn't have lost Aurelia.
