The CEO's Unplanned Heir novel Chapter 877

“You feeling all better now? Everything’s back in working order?” Aurelia teased with a wink.

Leopold choked on his beer, furrowing his brow. “What do you mean?”

“You know, after that food poisoning scare, you had that messed with your... sperm. Otherwise, why would Elowen have gone for IVF?” Aurelia murmured, pursing her lips in a mischievous smile.

Under the soft glow of the pub lights, Leo’s dark eyes twinkled with a sly glint. “I never had any issues. But if I didn’t play that card, my dad and aunt would had breathed down my neck about settling down.”

Aurelia widened her eyes in mock and shock. “So you were just blowing smoke! I never pegged you to bring shame on yourself.”

Leopold shrugged nonchalantly, a roguish grin playing on his lips. “A guy’s gotta keep himself pure for his future wife, doesn’t he?”

Aurelia flirtatiously rolled her eyes. “Right, you seem to be some untouched choir boy who’s never been with another woman.”

She was pretty sure his first time was with Megan. But the countless one-night stands that might have followed were beyond her guess.

Leo’s smile faded into seriousness. He felt the need to set the record straight.

“What if I told you that you’re the only woman for me? Would you believe that?”

Aurelia nearly choked on her drink, her eyes bulging. It was as if she’d seen pigs flying by the light of a blue moon. “What are you saying now?”

He leaned in, his fingers gently lifting her chin. “You Are The Only Woman For Me,” he declared, enunciating each word with conviction.

She swallowed hard, with numerous butterflies in her stomach. “That’s impossible!”

She shook her head so vigorously. This was more sci-fi than an alien landing on Earth.

The guy she married was in his twenties, definitely straight, in perfect health, with a libido to match. How could he possibly still be a virgin?

She didn’t and wouldn’t believe it.

Sure, she wasn’t the brightest crayon in the box, but she wasn’t foolish enough to believe something so implausible, right?

Leopold sighed. He knew she wouldn’t take his word for it.
