Leopold's arrival in the world was a cataclysm for her, shattering all her dreams like fragile glass.

Without the sustenance of vengeance, she doubted she could have made it this far.

She had to reclaim everything that was rightfully hers, or she would never rest in peace.

"I just can't believe Megan would do something like this," she pondered aloud, "After all, she's Leopold's lawful wife, carrying his child. How could poisoning him possibly benefit her or the baby?" Aurelia responded with a measured tone, "If it wasn't her, then someone's looking for a fall guy. The Stirling family and the cops aren't going to be fooled that easily." Tanya heaved a sigh, "I just hope Leopold's okay and that they catch the real culprit soon." Aurelia offered a reassuring smile, "Don't worry. No criminal gets away scot-free." A glint passed fleetingly in Tanya's eyes as she stood up, "I should get going, Skyler. I will drop by for another visit soon." Shortly after Tanya left, Aurelia received a call from Lisa's nanny, Edith.

Before leaving last time, she had given Edith her contact info for emergencies.

"Madam, could you cover? Something's off with Lisa. She's been cooped up in her room, crying all alone.

This morning, she even lay down in a full bathtub. If I hadn't cin when I did, she might've drowned herself." Aurelia felt a jolt of urgency, "Alright, I'm on my way." She arrived at Lisa's place swiftly. There, Lisa was in a fit of rage, having just flung a pot of chicken soup across the floor.

Nowadays, there were staffed with four nannies, one for Lisa, one for the baby, and two others for cooking and housekeeping.

"I'm sick of this creamy chicken soup. Instead of losing weight, I've gained five pounds. I'm turning into a fat woman." She loathed her swollen reflection, and she was sure Arnold would too.

Edith tried to console her, "Madam, if you don't nourish yourself, there won't be enough milk for the baby." "I don't want to breastfeed anymore." Lisa's voice was shaky, her control slipping away.

Aurelia wrapped her arms around Lisa, "Lisa, calm down, and let's take a breath." Faye hurried over to clean up the broken pottery and spilled soup. If Lisa got hurt, Arnold would have her head.

Lisa turned to her, scanning her face, "Aurelia, did you breastfeed after your children were born?" Speaking softly, Aurelia confessed, "I couldn't breastfeed because of shealth issues. They were raised on formula. But breastfeeding is so much better for the baby, and all the doctors say so. You've got plenty of milk, no need to switch to formula yet." Lisa sniffled, "No wonder you bounced back so fast. Women are all about formula, and breastfeeding is rare. I don't want saggy breasts, and I don't want to gain another ounce. I need to get back in shape as soon as possible." Aurelia gently patted her shoulder, "Nova's still very young, and her stomach is delicate. If you switch to formula too abruptly, it could make her sick." Lisa bit her lip, "I've made up my mind, Aurelia. My tis running out. Do you really think Arnold won't be repulsed by this bloated mess?" Aurelia sighed, "If you're set on switching, at least wait until after Nova's first month. Arnold isn't shallow, and he won't despise you for changes from childbirth. But if Nova gets sick because of a sudden switch to formula, that would upset him more." Pausing for a moment, she reassured her, "Don't worry about your figure. I've got a postnatal yoga routine that I can teach you. Practice it daily, and you'll see your shape return in no time."
