The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold)
Chapter 882

Pouting her cheeks petulantly, Lilith grumbled, "Why not letin? Looks like you have zero clout in your family." The words stung Ritchie's pride, so he said in anger "I'm getting my girlfriend in there today, no matter what." With no other choice, Rahul reluctantly went to seek help from Aurelia.

Aurelia spotted the girl on the security feed - she had multiple earrings, an eyebrow piercing, and a wrist tattoo, and she had the air of a rebel, not the kind of wholesgirl.

"How long has Ritchie known this girl?" "Seems like they just met at the bar today," Rahul explained.

Aurelia frowned, "That means we know nothing about her. You're aware we're not just a normal family. We can't just bring strangers home. Ritchie got taken advantage of before, and he's still on probation. We can't afford a repeat. If something goes wrong, no one can save him." The AK Group's reach was pervasive, and with the children there, their safety was paramount. Plus, Avery was a public figure, letting an unknown entity into their hcould spawn untold rumors.

Rahul, left with no other option, went out to ask Lilith to leave.

Ritchie was seething, ready to storm in and confront Aurelia when a Rolls-Royce pulled up. Arnold stepped out, looking devilishly handsome.

Lilith was starstruck.

"Oh my gosh, he's so hot. Is he a relative of yours?" "That's Arnold Stirling, my cousin Aurelia's boyfriend," Ritchie hurried to greet him.

Convinced now that Ritchie was indeed related to Avery, Lilith was excited to be mingling with such influential people.

Arnold offered a polite smile, "Why aren't you inside?" Ritchie sulked, "Aurelia won't let my girlfriend in. She's pretty upset about it." Arnold glanced at Lilith, "You're not a kid anymore. You should understand that the Hawthorne family is no ordinary family. Be cautious about who you befriend. If you mess up again, nobody's got your back." With that, he went inside.

Ritchie was fuming. He was the Hawthorne family's eldest grandchild, and yet they showed him no respect. It was outrageous.

Lilith's eyes danced with mischief, "If we get married, I'll be part of the Hawthorne family, right? Let's go register now." Ritchie was taken aback, "Are you joking? We've only just met." "Give it stime, and we'll be acquaintances," Lilith flirted, tugging up her skirt.

Blood rushed through Ritchie's veins as he pulled her into his car.

Inside the mansion.

Perla, Emma, and Jolin were in the groom, playing poker with Belinda.

Arnold had brought a birthday gift for Belinda, a jade carving.

Belinda was over the moon, "This is why you raise daughters, so they can bring hsons-in-law like Arnold who light up our family name." Perla rolled her eyes covertly. They weren't even married, yet he was already called a son-in-law.

She thought, "Aurelia was a siren, enchanting wealthy men to fall at her feet." Aurelia, together with Avery and Arnold, went to the tea room for refreshments.

Jelena had arrived. She'd been abroad for further studies and had just returned.

"You won't believe what I saw outside," she said.

She pulled out her phone to show a video she'd taken.

A big, black SUV was parked under the shade of a tree, rocking slightly.

Aurelia held her forehead in exasperation, only Ritchie could do something like this.

"That's Ritchie's car." Ritchie had taken out a loan for it. He might not be good at earning money, but he sure knew how to spend it, like a poser.

Jelena was flabbergasted, "Sdogs can't stop eating dirt. You should have security throw him out." "Let him be," Aurelia sighed, tired of dealing with it. Swalls were just too crooked to straighten.
