The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold) novel Chapter 372

Chapter 372 

Lisa swiveled her head, looking towards the nearby shoreline where Aurelia was delightfully chasing the lapping waves. 

Leopold watched her, his eyes filled with adoration. 

“It’s been a while since we’ve been to the beach,” she smiled, “If it were summer, we could go swimming.” Now, her leg was completely healed, and she could swim freely. 

Leopold’s thin lips curved in a charming smile, “When summer comes, I’ll take you and the kids out to sea for some real fun.” 

Aurelia glanced towards where the children were, but didn’t see William. She guessed he had left with Arnold, since he too wasn’t around. 

William was the family’s little ray of sunshine. With him around, she believed Arnold would get better soon. 

Her gaze then fell on Lisa, who was also looking at her. Their eyes met briefly before skittering away. 

Aurelia hoped that Arnold and Lisa would become a loving couple. If she and Arnold were destined to be star–crossed lovers, she wished that Arnold could find a pure and beautiful wife and have a happy family. But this marriage seemed fraught with schemes. 

These schemes wouldn’t just hurt Arnold, they could potentially threaten Leopold. 

Aurelia couldn’t stand by and let that happen. 

Leopold was the father of her children. If something happened to him, her children would undoubtedly be the next victims. She would never allow anyone to harm her children, even if it meant risking her own life to ensure her children’s safety! 

“Magnolia must have arranged Arnold’s marriage to Lisa because she values the Desan family’s influence, right?” 

Leopold raised his hand to caress Aurelia’s head, “Don’t worry, she can’t stir up a storm.” 

Aurelia’s eyes darkened, “I’m afraid she’s not alone. She may have accomplices.” 

Her words hit the nail on the head. 

Leopold had considered this possibility. His men had been keeping a close eye on Magnolia and Marcia’s every move. 

“Remember, don’t trust anyone but me.” 

Aurelia was Leopold’s weakness. Only if she was safe and sound could he focus on dealing with the evil people hiding in the shadows, eliminating them one by one, and preventing future troubles. 

Aurelia’s lips curved in a noncommittal smile, “Don’t worry, I won’t hold you back.” 

Once bitten, twice shy. She wouldn’t act impulsively like she did three years ago. 

On the beach, many people were watching them. Lizzy felt a mix of envy and resentment. How she wished she was the woman in Leopold’s arms! 

Lisa, if you hate Aurella so much, why not find a way to make her disappear?” 

“This is the Stirlings‘ territory, don’t act rashly,” Lisa warned. 

Lizzy pouted, “You’re just too timid. If I were you, I wouldn’t let that woman walk all over me” 

Lisa whispered, “There are countless bodyguards of the Stirlings on this beach. Even a fly can’t escape their watchful eyes.” 

Looking around, Lizzy said no more. If they were in Freysland, she would have had Aurelia killed by now, so Leopold could be hers. 

As night fell, the beach was filled with the soothing rhythm of music.
