The CEO's Unplanned Heir novel Chapter 482

With a furrowed brow, Leopold vented, "Quit beating around the bush. How did you meet this guy?"

Aurelia, of course, wouldn't spill the beans. She put on a nonchalant face and retorted, "Rich men like you have young, pretty mistresses. Now that we women have financial freedom, is it too much to chat up a hot lad?"

Leopold didn't buy her reasoning, "You've already lost interest in Elvis?"

"It's different," she shrugged, "He's a cute, obedient boy who does nothing but find ways to cheer me up. He listens to my every word, something you high and mighty tycoons can't do."

A spark ignited in Leopold's eyes, "Are you trying to get back at me?"

She didn't answer immediately. She took a sip of her juice and casually asked, "What's the difference between being a queen and a king’s wife?"

"What do you think?" His voice was laced with a dark undertone.

She smirked, "The life of a king’s wife is in the hands of the king. She has to be virtuous and tolerant, always trying to please the king, or else she risks being deposed. A queen, on the other hand, holds her life in her own hands. She's surrounded by admirers and can do whatever she pleases. That's probably why I am not satisfied with being your wife."

She paused, her smile deepening, "So, I think having a group of boys to please me is better than being your wife."

Leopold glared at her, his eyes sharp as arrows, trying to penetrate her facade and unravel her motives.

"I warned you not to associate with any man. Don't tempt my patience."

If she was trying to rile him up, then she succeeded, because he was absolutely livid.

Aurelia instinctively looked down, her long lashes shielding her sparkling eyes, afraid they might give her away.
