Leopold choked a bit, his hand instinctively reaching out to cover her belly, “Our children will naturally
be like me, knowing how to take the best and leave the worst.”
Aurelia raised an eyebrow, a hint of irony flickering in her eyes, “So, you didn’t inherit the flirtatious
gene?” Who would’ve thought!
Leopold pinched her chin, his gaze piercing as he stared at her, “You think I’m a womanizer?”
Aurelia pursed her lips. Even though his heart belonged to his first love, it didn’t seem to prevent him NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
from having relations with other women.
After all, physical needs were a hurdle that no creature of flesh could bypass.
She was convinced that he had been intimate with Evelyn, otherwise where did all his raging hormones
go?
Swallowing her saliva, she quickly switched to a playful expression, “I haven’t seen any signs of it. Our
babies‘ daddy is a paragon of virtue, faithful and single–minded, determined to fight against the
family’s
inherited vices till the end!”
After saying this, she pulled a face, “Mr. Leopold, the babies must have heard us, how am I doing with
my prenatal teaching?”
She beamed at him, clearly expecting praise. Leopold couldn’t help but laugh.
This woman, slippery as an eel, a rare breed indeed!
Just then, his phone buzzed, a message from Evelyn via WhatsApp.
“Leo, I’m off work tomorrow, and I’ll take Honey to the club to practice, would you like to join?”
“Sure.”
“Great, see you at the club tomorrow, Honey will be thrilled to see you.”
Aurelia picked up a prenatal education book, pretending to flip through it while her eyes were glued to
his phone screen.
She gathered the gist of it. They were going on a date tomorrow, and it was no secret!
Poor Elowen. She felt bad for her.
Perhaps out of excessive sympathy, she felt a bit sour, as if she was also being cheated.
She pretended to yawn and stood up, “It’s getting late, I should go to bed.”
She couldn’t disturb his sweet time with his sweetheart. A surrogate should know her place!
Leopold shot her a glance before heading to the living room to take a call.
Kevin had also sent a WhatsApp message, there was an emergency.
Evelyn was off work today.
Aurelia knew that she was out having a date with the boss.
The man was a typical hypocrite, only allowing himself to enjoy while others could not. As part of the
disadvantaged group, she felt utterly miserable.
When Emma came in, she was glowing, her face as beautiful as a peach blossom in full bloom.
“Wow, a woman in love is definitely different,” Cindy laughed, “Has your boyfriend found a place yet?
When are you moving in together?”
“Not yet, but soon. It’s a short–term lease anyway, he’ll buy a house soon,” Emma’s eyes squinted into
slits as she laughed, “I took the afternoon off to go car shopping with him. We’ll buy an electric one for
now and switch when we get a car plate.”
“What does your boyfriend do? Is he looking for a new job in Elysium?” Cindy asked.
“He collects rent. His family owns a prime property right in the city centre, fetching a decent rent every
month.”
“You better keep a close eye on him, don’t let anyone steal him away.”
“Who dares to steal my man, I’ll kill her.”
Aurelia took a sip of her water, her eyes darkening as she listened. She felt more and more that
Emma’s boyfriend resembled Ritchie.
If these two met, it would be a massive joke from the universe.
At lunchtime, Elowen arrived, her face a picture of melancholy. She probably knew about the boss‘
date with Evelyn.
Aurelia had reserved a spot in a nearby diner. They ate and chatted.
Elowen had some water, her voice low, “Have you heard? There was a severe car accident on Fortuna
Road yesterday. The victims were the waitress who scalded Evelyn and her boyfriend.”
