The CEO's Unplanned Heir novel Chapter 141

Avery took a sip of his juice, his voice low and casual, "Sis, you've been single for so long, don't you ever think about dating?"

Aurelia felt a bit awkward. Her boss was in the next room. One wrong word and she'd be in for a lecture.

"No, I don't want to date. I just want to focus on my career. Men are just distractions. Dating will only slow me down from making money."

Avery choked on his juice, a ludicrous idea popping into his head.

Was Aurelia being flirty with the boss just to achieve her career goals?

Was she this ambitious?

Would she go as far as to sacrifice her dignity?

In the next room, Leopold stood by the door, which was slightly ajar, allowing him to overhear their conversation.

A smirk twisted his lips.

Men were distractions?

Weren't they more like ATMs?

She certainly didn't hesitate to withdraw money every month.

Avery ate a slice of orange, murmuring, "Arno's so handsome, so accomplished. You guys are close. Doesn't that make you want to date him?"

Aurelia was even more awkward. It was as though Avery was stirring the pot.

"I've told you a hundred times, Arno and I are just friends. We are now, and we always will be. I don't understand why people assume that a man and a woman can't just be friends without any romantic undertones."

She raised her voice on purpose, hoping that the person in the next room would get the message loud and clear.

Avery was puzzled. He couldn't figure out his sister's thoughts.

"And what about your boss? Sure, he's a playboy, but he's rich and influential. Don't you want to date him too?"

Before he could finish his sentence, Aurelia smacked him on the head.
