The CEO's Unplanned Heir novel Chapter 238

Not too far away, Aurelia distinctly heard their conversation, a sharp pang of hurt darted through her heart, stirring up a storm of emotions.

Hadn't Leopold sworn there'd be no other children in his life? Hadn't he agreed to have a vasectomy before getting married? And now, he was eager to have Evelyn carry his child?

What a smooth talker that Leopold was.

She grabbed a glass from the table and gulped down a glass of water, trying to suppress her anger and resentment.

Of course, Evelyn was the apple of Leopold's eyes. How could anyone bear to hurt her?

She, on the other hand, was nothing but a lowly pawn, easily bullied and hurt without any hesitation.

She drained the glass of water, but the bitterness in her mouth lingered, spreading from her tongue to the pit of her stomach.

She had her suspicions that Leopold might be sleeping with Evelyn every night and that she might already be carrying his child.

While he was enjoying his life, she was bearing the brunt of everyone's gossip, suffering from the whispers behind her back, and having to face her mother's tirade when she got home. Life was unfair.

After work, she anxiously headed to Sunbeam Retreat.

As soon as she entered, Jolin rushed over, and her gaze fixed on Aurelia's belly, "You got pregnant long ago, and you still had the nerve to say it was just because of a fibroid. What are you thinking? Do you think you can hide a pregnancy?"

Avery immediately asked, "Aurelia, is the baby Arno's?"

"No," Aurelia answered sadly.

Avery was nervous, a sense of foreboding creeping up on him, "Is it Leopold's?"

Aurelia bit her lip. After a struggle, she shook her head weakly and said, "No."

Her hesitation made Avery worried, and he said, "Aurelia, no matter whose child it is, it can't be Leopold's. There are rumors among the elites that he broke off his engagement with Elowen to marry Evelyn. They've even set the date for their engagement party. He is a heartbreaker."
