The CEO's Unplanned Heir novel Chapter 509

"Even the wisest men can falter, Mr. Leopold. Despite your remarkable intellect and strategic mind, you were blindsided. You were so certain about divorcing me, so eager to rekindle the flame with your childhood sweetheart, Megan. But you didn't see it coming that she was just a pawn placed by our enemies, did you?"

Her voice was laced with a mocking tone.

Leopold felt as if a cloud of blame had suddenly descended on him. He was indeed in a bitter predicament with no way to express his grievances. "What childhood sweetheart? I've told you, Megan and I were just friends."

Aurelia snorted at his stubborn denial. In her mind, admitting to being fooled would mean losing all dignity, so he always denied it like this. His love for Megan was undeniable, and all people were aware of it. After Megan disappeared, he never dated again. The first love, the unforgettable romance, was not something one could easily forget.

So, when she was admitted to the ICU, he couldn't resist the temptation and rekindled his old flame with Megan.

When he learned about Megan's betrayal, his love probably turned into hatred. His mind cleared, no longer blinded by love, and his rationality returned. Now, he was probably using Megan, hoping to expose the mastermind behind the scenes through her.

That must be the reason he hadn't divorced her yet, and this was also a punishment for Megan.

She frowned, saying, "Alright, whatever you say."

She could choose to feign ignorance, deal with the external enemies first, and then resolve the internal conflicts.

Leopold sighed, and he didn't want to explain too much. When everything ended, that would be the day of his vindication.

Aurelia glanced at the watch, and it was already eleven o'clock.

"It's late. I should go home and sleep. I have work tomorrow."

She opened the car door and got out.

Every time she saw Leopold, her mood inexplicably became heavy.

They had been divorced for some time now, but the wound in her heart hadn't healed yet.
