Her tone was sharp, like steel needles, relentlessly piercing into Leopold's chest, turning his heart into a sieve full of holes.
The thought of Elvis coveting her behind the scenes made him more irritable.
"Are you secretly looking for a new catch behind my back?"
She scoffed. "What if I am? What if I'm not? What's it to you?"
What she hated the most was his double standards. It was okay for him to mess around with other women, but not for her to be friends with another man.
He could do as he pleased, yet he imposed all the prohibitions on her.
Leopold walked over, looking down at her from a high position. "Don't blame me for not warning you. In the Stirling family, only men can sleep around, but women must adhere to the virtues of a wife."
"You're kicking me out, anyway. Why should I care about your 'virtues of a wife'?"
Aurelia put on a strange but cunning smile. "I've done a rough calculation. We've been married for four years. According to your rocket-speed income, I should be entitled to billions, right? The last time you gave me the divorce papers, I didn’t read them. I hope I won’t be shortchanged even a penny. Don’t think you can fool me when it's about money."
She leaned back on the sofa, sipping on her milk. "After the divorce, I'll be a billionaire, who is young and beautiful. The guys chasing me will be too many to count. I can have anyone I want. Even if you wanted me back, I wouldn't give you a second look."
A nerve in Leopold's heart was twitching violently.
Although he felt she was deliberately provoking him, one thing was undeniable. She wouldn’t be short of admirers. "If you truly love Kane, you should behave yourself."
