The CEO's Unplanned Heir novel Chapter 1043

Leopold gently cleaned the tears from her face with a soft cloth.

"He's hardly ever home, right?" asked Leopold

"That's true," Mira nodded from the side, "Dad only stays at home for a day or two each month. I'm used to it."

Nina glared at her, "This time it's serious. He's talking about divorce, and soon we might not have a dad anymore."

"Why?" Mira looked puzzled as if the idea of Fredric being an indispensable part of their lives was foreign to her.

Nina was irked and gave Mira's head a smack, "If Dad divorces Mom, he'll probably bring home a stepmom, and stepmoms are always evil. They feed you poisoned apples and try to kill you."

Mira shivered, her eyes wide with fear, "I don't want a stepmom."

Aurelia came downstairs with Kane trailing behind her.

Kane spoke up, "Nina, Mira, don't be scared. If anyone tries to poison you, Dad and I will make sure she pays."

Nina turned to him, "Kane, you'll vote against it, right?"

"Yep," Kane nodded, "Don't worry, I'll keep my promise."

"But that woman is your aunt. What if you change your mind?" Nina fretted.

Kane shook his head, replying firmly, "Jelena is not evil. It's Fredric who's smitten with her and insists on marrying her. If you can convince your dad to drop the idea, then there won't be any divorce."

Nina pouted, "Dad never listens to us. He only listens to Jelena."

Sheryl loathed Jelena with every fiber of her being, wishing she could flay her skin, draw her sinews, drain her blood, and scatter her ashes to the winds.
