The CEO's Unplanned Heir novel Chapter 13

That wasn't a defense, but was throwing gasoline on a fire. Mrs. Bright snapped, red-faced and furious. "You've got pregnant, and you dare to deny it?"

Aurelia cast a glance at Kelly, feeling increasingly that something was off.

"I'm not pregnant. The nausea is a side effect of some medication. I'm single, and I'm still pure. So where's this supposed baby coming from?"

Kelly twisted her lips into a wry grin, "How about this? Do a split, bend over, and show Mrs. Bright you're not expecting. That should clear up the misunderstanding, don't you think?"

Mrs. Bright nodded, "Good. Do it."

Aurelia snickered, her gaze sliding from Mrs. Bright to Kelly's face. She was either scheming something or stirring the pot.

"Quick to accuse, eh? If I said you stole something and hid it on your person, should you strip to prove your innocence?"

"You..." Kelly blushed.

Mrs. Bright was furious, "You trollop, you've definitely got something going on. I'll make sure you lose it today."

She raised her hand, putting all her strength into a slap aimed at Aurelia.

Unexpectedly, her wrist was caught mid-air by a strong hand.

Leopold effortlessly tossed her aside like a rag, leaving her sprawled on the floor.

"What do you think this place is?"

Several onlookers, who had been peeking from behind walls, quickly retreated at the sight of the boss. Kelly also made a hasty exit.

Mrs. Bright lay groaning on the floor, too frightened by Leopold's icy aura to make another move.

"She seduced my husband. I have proof. You're a manager, right? Are you going to do anything?"

"The picture is photoshopped. The woman in it isn't me, and I have no connection to her husband."

Aurelia quickly moved behind Leopold. His tall, sturdy figure felt like a shield, giving her a sudden sense of safety.

Leopold instructed his assistant to get a technical analysis of the picture.

Soon, the result came out. The picture was indeed photoshopped.
