Her lips curved into a smile, her dimples dancing joyfully on her cheeks.
Leopold choked, his internal injuries intensifying, making him feel like he was about to spit blood.
Her smile felt like a myriad of silver needles, piercing through his eyes, causing a sharp pain.
He walked to the refrigerator, grabbed a bottle of iced mineral water, took a few sips to cool himself down before he said coldly, "I've arranged a flight for you. You're going to Switzerland. You'll stay there until the baby is born."
What?
His words exploded like a bolt from the blue in Aurelia's mind, shattering her smile into tiny fragments that disappeared from her lips.
He was planning to imprison her abroad!
"I'm not going," she exclaimed. "I'm not your mistress. Our relationship is contractual. You have no right to make decisions for me."
Her voice was getting louder and louder as she spoke.
Her career was just taking off.
She had been diligent, hardworking, and patient. Finally, her talents as a jewelry designer named Aurelia were becoming recognized.
She couldn't be sent to Switzerland to have a baby. She needed to seize this opportunity and design better pieces, or she would quickly be forgotten.
A cold light flashed in Leopold's eyes. "That's not up to you!"
Sending her to Switzerland was the safest decision for their child. Additionally, he wanted to sever all her ties with Arnold.
Aurelia clenched her fists, her heart pounding, and her shoulders shaking.
