Chapter 547

In the morning, Leopold summoned Aurelia to his office.

Word had come in from the police that the recent assassination attempt was the brainchild of Kerry and Zachary, not the orders of their boss.

Aurelia stirred her coffee, "No wonder they've always been so sneaky, but this time they've made such a grand entrance, shaking the whole of Elysium.”

"Kerry has been diagnosed with a terminal illness, and this is essentially a disguised suicide mission” Leopold stated gravely.

Aurelia scoffed, "I quess the AK Group isn't as harmonious as it seems. It's not just us that Kerry wants to eliminate, but also the opposition within the AK Group itself, right?"

This thought coincided with Leopold's.

She had implicated many people, most likely those who opposed her, wanting to drag them down with her even in death.

"As long as their leader is not captured, these overseas organizations can easily rise from the ashes.” Aurelia gave him a sideways glance, “I bet Kerry has implicated Megan too, so did you spare her?" Hearing her question, Leopold's gaze deepened. The last vial of antibiotics was still in Megan's possession.

Until the research institute could cultivate the bacteriophages, Megan must remain untouched.

"I have my reasons for what I do.” He replied.

Aurelia rolled her eyes, feeling a little jealous inside. He still had feelings for his old flame, so he couldn't hurt her.

Perhaps the child in Megan's womb was his. Because it would be strange if he hadn't shared a bed with Megan in her mind. She wanted to see how he would cover up the lie once Megan's baby was born.

"If you don't need anything else, I'll be leaving, Mr. Leopold." She was in a bad mood, and the conversation had been ruined. Without waiting for his response, she walked out.

Men were all damn pigs, she thought.

This week, Avery joined the filming of a mystery reality show, where Bonnie was also a member. The paparazzi were ready for some juicy gossip. Last time, when Bonnie saved Avery from an injury, everyone thought they might rekindle their old romance.

Bonnie was very beautiful, standing next to Avery, they indeed looked like a couple.

Leah didn't like Bonnie, seeing her rival. Bonnie didn't like Leah either.

Avery and Leah were so intimate, so Bonnie always felt that Leah had a crush on Avery.

“Avery, are you coming to the school reunion tonight?" Bonnie asked.

“Evan is going too, right?" Avery asked casually.

After being sidelined by Luminous Vision Media, Evan's father spent a fortune to terminate his contract and signed him to Starstruck Entertainment, but he still wasn't making waves.

His feud with Avery had been thoroughly dug up by the paparazzi.

Those with a shady past had a hard time becoming successful. Any show he appeared in would be boycotted by fans.

The comment sections were filled with insults, and the platform was flooded with negative ratings. Bonnie shrugged, "He's become a lot more humble, no longer acting arrogant.”

Avery sneered.

It wasn't that he didn't want to act arrogantly anymore, but that he didn't have the capital to do so. There was always someone bigger and better, and his father couldn't protect him from everyone. "I'll try to make some time to go.”

He wouldn't hold a grudge against Evan, but he wouldn't forgive him either.

Leah came over, “Avery, your coffee.”

Avery took it with a gentle smile, "You don't have to wait for me backstage later. Go find a place to have brunch."

"Okay." Leah nodded.

Bonnie looked at her pensively, “Leah, you really look like a mixed-race child.”

Leah made a funny face, "I just have more pronounced features than others, like my mom.

"Your mom must be very beautiful” Avery smiled.

"My mom was the belle of the village, Leah grinned.

Bonnie pursed her lips and thought, "This country girl Leah must be daydreaming.” How could the Hawthorne family possibly accept a culturally deficient country girl as Avery's wife?
