The CEO's Unplanned Heir novel Chapter 188

Jenny covered her mouth, whispering, "Maybe Emma isn't telling the truth either. She always claims to be a trust fund baby, but her parents are just factory workers. Since she came to Elysium, she hasn't contacted her family in fear of being exposed."

Only she knew this secret in the entire company, because she overheard Emma on a call with her family in the bathroom.

Aurelia thought about how Emma used to mock her for being a penny-pincher, a typical poor girl, it all seemed incredibly ironic now.

"If they're discussing marriage, they should be honest with each other. Otherwise, it will be a total mess when the truth comes out."

"Exactly." Jenny scoffed.

Aurelia took a sip of her drink, her gaze unintentionally drifting towards Leopold not far away.

He was staring at her, their eyes clashing intensely in the air, sparking like flint and steel.

She jumped, quickly looking away.

It seemed like every time she looked at the big boss, he was also looking at her.

His gaze was so fierce, it was frightening!

Leopold had no appetite at all, his lips tightly pursed. These days, he hadn't been sleeping well, a bundle of frustration suffocating him.

Seeing Aurelia only intensified his frustration, each of her smiles was a silent, barefaced provocation!

His fingers tightened fiercely, throwing the fork in his hand. Kevin gasped, quickly handing him a new one. Are Mr. Leopold and Ms. Aurelia in a cold war?

Given Mr. Leopold's personality, he wouldn't swallow his pride to coax Ms. Aurelia, he must be waiting for her to take the initiative to reconcile. But Ms. Aurelia, with her carefree demeanor, seemed to not take Mr. Leopold seriously at all. This was going to be difficult!

After finishing her meal, Aurelia cleaned her mouth contentedly, and left with Jenny, deliberately taking a long detour to stay away from a certain someone, showing no intention of reconciliation.
