The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold)
Chapter 301

Chapter 301

Aurelia’s heart pounded. So, if anything happened to Leopold, the biggest beneficiary would be Fredric Stirling?

Fredric, with his carefree and flirtatious demeanor, didn’t seem like the scheming type. Could he be playing the fool to catch the wise?

A chill ran down her spine. Suddenly, every member of the Stirling family seemed complex, hiding their true intentions. For Leopold to secure his position, he had to be even more ruthless, more decisive, more cunning.

On the other side of Ironridge.

Leopold gulped down a shot of bourbon, hoping the strong alcohol could numb his inner restlessness.

Kevin entered, “Ms. Aurelia arrived with Mr. Arnold. She's likely staying at his secret villa. Our men are discreetly searching for it.”

He paused, then added softly, “Ms. Aurelia should be safe for now staying with Mr. Arnold.” Leopold rubbed his throbbing temple. Safe? He didn't feel it at all.

Kevin presented a pile of documents, “These are border entry records of all infants in the last two months. We're checking them one by one. Aaron has bribed the local smugglers to investigate illegal channels.”

Leopold nodded slightly. Kevin understood that he needed some alone time and left.

The night was deep.

Leopold stood by the window, the cold wind causing his hair and thoughts to flutter.

The room was as silent as a tomb, so quiet he could hear his own heavy breathing. It felt like he was the only person left in the world.

He thought he didn't love Aurelia.

How could he love a woman who was full of schemes, cunning tricks, slippery like an eel? But why had that woman become his Achilles’ heel, his downfall?

When she left, it felt like his heart was hollowed out, only leaving behind a throbbing pain.

Was it all due to possessiveness?

He pulled out his phone, tried to send Aurelia a message, but it failed.

He was blocked!

Was she planning to sever ties with him completely?

He laughed bitterly and drained his glass.

Unfortunately, even the strongest liquor couldn't suppress the emptiness and anxiety gnawing at his heart.

There was a big stir in Elysium.

Elowen finally found evidence of Evelyn's plot against her.

How could she stand by and watch Evelyn steal her place?

If she couldn't be Leopold's wife, no one else could!

The family of the deceased waitress found a USB while sorting her belongings. It contained a recording of Evelyn bribing her. It was her backup plan to blackmail Evelyn when she ran out of money.

The family sold this to Elara for a high price.

Evelyn had seen Elowen approach the maid.

She secretly recorded a video, paid the waitress triple the money after Elowen left, and instructed her to spill all the soup on Aurelia and a bit on herself. This way, she could blame Elowen and get rid of Aurelia, who was against her.

Unfortunately, she didn't expect Aurelia to go to the bathroom at that moment, narrowly escaping. When the recording was released, it caused an uproar.

Evelyn was furious. She was inches away from becoming the CEO's wife, and she wouldn't let her efforts go to waste.

She sent a legal notice, accusing Elowen of framing her.

Elowen wasn't going down without a fight, she hired professionals to verify the authenticity of the recording.

News of this quickly reached Astral Enterprises.

And people in the Design Department were shocked.

“I never thought Evelyn could be so ruthless. Aurelia was pregnant at the time, if she'd been scalded, she might have lost the baby.”

"How else would she oust Elowen and take over?”

"Although I don't like Aurelia, she really climbed up by her own effort and never harmed anyone.” 2/3

“Does the big boss know about this? Will he still marry Evelyn?”

"Who knows!”
