The CEO's Unplanned Heir novel Chapter 294

In just a few hours, the news had traveled all around the globe.

Evelyn was pregnant, and a wedding was in the works, slated for two months later, just after she'd passed the risky first trimester.

Leopold's cell phone buzzed, an unknown caller ID displayed.

He swiftly activated the most advanced call tracker.

A cryptic voice echoed from the speaker, distorted by a voice changer.

"Does Mr. Leopold still want this child?"

Leopold scoffed, his tone nonchalant, "Just an illegitimate child, one more or less won't make a difference."

He deliberately emphasized the word 'illegitimate.'

......

That evening, Leopold hadn't returned home yet.

Aurelia sat by the crib, her gaze blankly fixed on Kane.

Was the child in the photo really not Liam?

Was her Liam really gone?

An email notification pinged.

It was an audio recording.

"Just an illegitimate child, one more or less..." It was Leopold’s voice.

"I thought you had secretly married Aurelia, Mr. Leopold."

"Wishful thinking. She was nobody. What makes her worthy to be my wife!"

"Don't you intend to save the child?"

"No one can intimidate me!"

......

Each word in the recording exploded like a bomb in Aurelia's mind, causing her head to throb and her stomach to churn.

Leopold had lied to her!

Liam was alive, truly alive!

But Leopold had no intention to save him, he didn't want Liam anymore!

She felt as if all her energy was drained, collapsing onto the bed, her back chilled, limbs trembling.
