The CEO's Unplanned Heir novel Chapter 691

Jessica cared only for her grandson, not Aurelia, so Tanya advised with earnest gravity, "You've got to hang in there. Once the baby is born and you’ve got your talisman, you can stand your ground against them."

Megan caressed her swelling belly, plotting silently that as soon as her child was born, she’d have the Boss initiate a clean-up plan to wipe out all of Leopold's children, leaving only her son.

After the boat docked, everyone retreated to their hotel rooms for some rest.

Leopold headed for Aurelia's room.

"Sweetheart, you weren’t jealous today, were you?" he asked.

Aurelia rolled her eyes, "First off, I'm your ex-wife, not your sweetheart. And second, even if you had a harem, I wouldn't be jealous."

Upon on hearing it, a shade of disappointment flickered in Leopold's eyes, "Can’t you at least pretend to be a little jealous? Why be so cold?"

She gave him an exasperated look, "Do you get a kick out of seeing me jealous? Does it stroke your ego?"

"Yes." He confessed, gazing at her earnestly, "I wish you'd be jealous just once. You’ve never been jealous."

"Sorry to disappoint," she said with a shrug, her voice cooler than she felt, "I actually enjoy seeing you disappointed. I’m not going to inflate your pride."

"Aurelia," he said with a laugh tinged with frustration, "You do love torturing me, don’t you?"

"Yep." She nodded without hesitation, "That’s what you get from the woman you ditched, the woman who might not even take you back if you begged."

He grabbed her shoulders, "Just remember, if I die of a broken heart one day, don’t you dare regret it."

Her gaze met his, unwavering, "You're too lucky to die young. You’ll live to a ripe old age. Men like you always pine for the one they can't have, so I'll be that woman you'll never get."
