The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold)
Chapter 811

Nova blinked awake, her big eyes scanning the room curiously. Edith had just finished tucking her into a fresh diaper when she called for Lisa to cand feed Nova.

Lisa entered the room, and after Nova had her fill of milk, noticed that Nova didn't seem inclined to sleep. So, she settled her into the stroller and wheeled her out to let her play for a while.

Aurelia, who was lounging nearby, began to playfully engage with Nova, "You're such a good girl today, Nova.

Not a single tear," she cooed, her voice dripping with affection. "I got a special treat for you." Nova gurgled in response, flailing her tiny limbs as if to say she understood perfectly.

Aurelia chuckled, her eyes filled with the kind of adoration only a child could evoke. She was utterly defenseless against their charm.

"The christening party is all set at Magnolia Heights," Aurelia shared with Lisa, "The Stirling family always have their children’s ceremonies there. We're keeping it modest, just close family and friends, as per tradition." Lisa nodded, acknowledging the conversation she had had earlier with Sheryl.

Standing up, Aurelia suggested, "The sun is lovely today. It'd be good for Nova to get ssunshine. Let's take a stroll in the garden." "Sounds perfect," Lisa agreed.

With a swift motion, Aurelia draped a mosquitoover the stroller to shield Nova from any pesky bugs and started pushing it outside.

"Off to the garden for ssun, Nova," Aurelia sang out.

Nova seemed to understand, responding with excited coos and energetic limb-waving.

Chattering away to Nova, Aurelia walked along, while Nova watched her with round, attentive eyes, occasionally babbling back.

Lisa trailed silently behind, her head bowed, her face devoid of any smile. Aurelia's worry for her deepened.

"Lisa, if something's troubling you, please spill it out. Don't bottle it up. You can treatlike a rubbish bin if you like, and pour everything out here. Even if you want to rant about Arnold, I won't breathe a word to him," Aurelia offered with genuine concern.

At these words, Lisa's eyes brimmed with tears.

"I'm just so scared I can't fix our marriage. He despises me, and I'm sure he'll still want a divorce." Aurelia wrapped her arms around Lisa, "Don't overthink it. Even if you do get divorced, it's not the end of the world. People reconcile all the time. As long as he's not married to someone else, there's hope. Leopold and I divorced after he leftfor Megan, who even bore his child. I still have to carry on with life, don't I?" Lisa sniffed, considering her situation against Aurelia's trials. Aurelia was really miserable. Aurelia was going to marry Arnold and then she asked Arnold to marry her. Aurelia wanted to go back to Leopold and reunite, but Megan interfered and forced her to get a divorce.

If she were in her shoes, she wouldn't be able to survive being hit in turn like that.

"You don't hold any resentment at all?" "Of course, I do. I'm no saint. But harboring resentment is useless and only hurts me. Crying my eyes out every day won't bring Leopold back. Besides, there's no use in crying over spilled milk, and even if he wanted to return, I might not take him back. So, I decided to live life with a bit more flair, cast aside the nuisances, and enjoy my journey. Let the sorry men have their regrets. The world doesn't stop for anyone. And I've got my children. I live for them now." With a comforting pat on Lisa's shoulder, Aurelia continued, "You're a mother now, too. You're living for yourself and Nova, not just for Arnold. Imagine, you can start your own business, and beca confident, brave, and strong woman. Arnold might just be impressed and fall back in love, begging you to take him back." Lisa felt a little lighter with Aurelia's comforting words.
