The CEO's Unplanned Heir novel Chapter 202

Leopold was taken aback slightly, casting an inscrutable yet piercing gaze at her.

"You're aware of her affair with Fredric, aren't you?"

That explained why she was suddenly so interested in Fredric and Sheryl's marital life last week.

Aurelia quickly replied, "I think there's been a misunderstanding. My cousin and your older brother are just boss and employee, just like us."

Leopold extended his arm, wrapping it around her waist. His icy eyes twinkled ominously under the light, "Are you certain that's all we are to each other? Just boss and employee?"

If not, then what?

Aurelia playfully grimaced, "Despite getting married and having two children, we've always been respectful and never crossed any lines!"

Leopold's eyes darkened even further, becoming cold and profound.

Had she really taken the initiative, not stopped at the crucial moment, they would have crossed so many boundaries by now. Because she had the ability to stir his hormones, to make him lose control completely, and he didn't mind separating emotions and physical needs.

His gaze briefly lingered on her ample chest, adding a touch of heat. He picked up the glass from the coffee table and took a sip of water, saying, "Fredric and your cousin have been staying at the Royal Emerald Resort for a month now. Sheryl is truly worried this time."

Aurelia took a deep breath. No wonder she ran into Fredric at the Royal Emerald Resort the other day. So they had been "living together"?

"If that's true, then my cousin must have been deceived by your brother's sweet talk. He's just like Mr. Chad on treating women, wanting to have his cake and eat it too. What a jerk!"

Leopold showed a hint of mockery, "If she doesn't want to, who could deceive her?"

It was possible between a willing buyer and a willing seller.

Aurelia picked up a cherry, put it in her mouth, and spat out the pit after eating it, "In Pebblebrook, there are many rich and handsome men chasing after my cousin. Why would she get involved with a married man and create a mess for herself?"

Leopold played with a strand of her hair, seemingly amused, "That depends on what she's after."
