The CEO's Unplanned Heir novel Chapter 224

"Mr. Leopold, we've covered all the prenatal classes. Can I take off now?" Aurelia attempted to rise, but his arm wrapped around her waist, strong and immovable.

Leopold's brows furrowed slightly, his face darkening at the thought that she might be fond of Arnold. So he said, "I won't be around tonight, but you should stay at home."

Aurelia felt frustrated. He could have fun with his sweetheart, but she had to stay home alone? How was that fair?

Taking a deep breath, she swallowed her resentment.

She can't go head-to-head with steel. And she needs to be clever, to find a softer, more effective approach. After all, he wouldn't be around. Who was he to stop her from going out and having a good time?

"Fine, I'll stay home. Maybe I'll catch up on some Netflix or chat with friends on WhatsApp. That doesn't sound too bad."

A spark flashed across Leopold's eyes. Chatting with Arnold on WhatsApp?

"You sure know how to attract attention."

She straightened her back, grinning broadly with a hint of mockery, "I can't help being popular. I was the apple of many guys' eyes back in college. If I were to post on Facebook that I'm looking to get married, I bet there would be a line of guys ready to propose."

Leopold's lips tightened, his handsome face clouded over, a storm brewing in his eyes. "Remember, any guy who wants you has to get through me first," he said, each word forced between clenched teeth.

She shrugged nonchalantly, "I'll keep that in mind. And your future girlfriends will have to get sterilized first. I'll even accompany them to make sure they're completely infertile, just to ease your mind."

As she spoke, a vengeful smile spread across her face. She was curious to see if he could bear to see his beloved hurt.
