The CEO's Unplanned Heir novel Chapter 502

She paused briefly before continuing, "I suspect Kerry is planning to employ some form of black magic on someone. It is essentially a form of biochemical weapon, and she is particularly skilled at using it to kill."

Leopold's expression darkened considerably. He had also seen what Aurelia had. It was just that he was hidden in the shadows, unnoticed by her.

"I'll have someone keep an eye on Kerry. You stay out of it so as not to alert the enemies."

Aurelia glanced sarcastically at him. His response seemed far too casual. Wasn't this a matter of great importance that warranted attention?

"Maybe Megan will seek out Zachary, too. I've heard there's a type of black magic called Love Hex. Women often use it to salvage their love and bewilder the man they desire. It's similar to the love potions in Transylvania. Once a man is under its spell, he can never leave the woman, or else he'll die."

Leopold's eyes flickered slightly in the dim light of the Twilight Club, his thin lips curving into a sinister smirk.

"Are you worried about me?"

Aurelia just pursed her lips. She was indeed worried, but she would never let him know that.

"I'm worried about Kane. If you're hexed with a love potion, you can’t keep your mind clear and will be manipulated by a woman. How will you protect Kane?"

With a swift movement, Leopold pulled her into his arms, his gaze never leaving hers.

"Tell me the truth. Do you not worry about me?"

Aurelia rolled her eyes at him. "You're a married man. What does it have to do with me? What's the point of me worrying about you?"

Leopold understood. She had never believed his words, nor had she thought that he would come back to her.

She would probably remarry without hesitation if it weren't for Kane. Why would she bother with him? Her sacrifices were all for the sake of Kane.

"Do you always get prickly when you see me?"

A sad smile gradually crept onto her face. "Yes, you're so dangerous. Shouldn't I protect myself? We're divorced, yet you're still controlling my life and forbidding me to associate with others. You have sex with me from time to time, making me feel like a shameful mistress!"
