The CEO's Unplanned Heir novel Chapter 938

William looked at her with a stern expression that seemed far too sober for his tender years. "So, who will you marry, Daddy or Uncle Leopold?"

Aurelia pinched his chubby cheek gently. "What's wrong with staying just as we are now?"

Pouting, William frowned. "Does that mean Kane and I will always be kids from a single-parent home?"

Aurelia was momentarily speechless.

She had always tried not to let her personal issues affect the children. But they were too clever, too understanding, and despite her best efforts, they felt the ripples of the grown-up world, especially William, who had grown accustomed to the blissful life of a family of three. The sudden split between Mom and Dad must have shaken his little world.

"Sweetie, we'll try to sort out our issues without letting them impact your lives," she reassured him.

William fixed his gaze on her. "If Uncle Leopold leaves the hospital and marries someone else, you’ll have to marry Daddy, okay?"

Aurelia bit her lip. She was certain Leopold wouldn't marry someone else. Lana was just a smoke screen.

"If Uncle Leopold goes ahead and ties the knot with someone else, I'll seek out my happiness."

She said this last part with a glance towards Guardian Leopold across the room.

"My daddy won't marry anyone else," Kane interjected with solemn conviction. If his dad made another "mistake," he was sure he’d lose his mom forever.

Leopold's mouth tightened into a hard line.

He only wanted to remarry Aurelia. He had no interest in any other woman.

Skyler sighed, sensing the tension. "Ah, Leopold and Arnold have feelings for Angel. But Angel can only marry one of them. Tough situation."

Aurelia massaged her temples helplessly. "Alright, let's not talk about this now. Let's eat before the roast leg of lamb gets cold."

She served a hearty portion of the tender lamb to Skyler and the children.

They all dove into their meal, the earlier conversation forgotten in the face of delicious food.
