“Jelena, the CEO types aren’t just domineering, they’re also arrogant and womanizing. You won’t find
happiness with them.”
Jelena chuckled, “And how would you know? You’ve never dated a CEO. You’re just imagining things!”
Avery pouted, “I may not have dated one, but I’ve seen them. My boss is a prime example of a playboy.
He’s engaged, yet he flirts with other women.”
Jelena paused. She remembered Aurelia mentioning her boss was Fredric’s brother, the renowned Mr.
Leopold from the social elite.
“I’ve heard about Mr. Leopold’s engagement. I heard it was arranged by Chad Stirling and he isn’t
really in love with his fiancée. The woman he truly loved is no longer alive.”
Aurelia waved her hands, “Let’s not get carried away. We should stay out of our bosses‘ business.”
She picked up an apple, sliced it and handed it to Jelena. “Jelena, do you know Elvis Cooper, the CEO
of Ethereal Gems? One of Elysium’s most eligible bachelors, he’s tall, handsome, and most
importantly, he’s disciplined and maintains a high moral standard. He’s the fighter jet among the CEOS.
Maybe I could introduce you to him?”
Jelena squinted at her, “If he’s such a great catch, why aren’t you keeping him for yourself?”
“She’s got someone else in mind.” Avery blurted out.
Jelena was instantly curious, “Who? Do you have a picture? Let me see! Anyone who can catch
Aurelia’s eye must indeed be special.”
Aurelia sighed at her brother’s uncensored remarks, “Don’t listen to Avery’s nonsense, he’s just a good NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
friend.”
Avery made a face, “They’re in the ‘more than friends, less than lovers‘ phase. I’ll tell you more when
they’re officially together.”
Jelena hugged Aurelia, “You do need a man in your life, Aurelia. It’s time to end your long singlehood.”
Aurelia managed a wry smile. Despite her single status, she was about to become a mother.
Night fell over the city. Leopold drove aimlessly around town, his mind in turmoil.
He ended up outside their apartment. He could neither eat nor do anything else. He only wanted to
“teach a lesson” to the woman who was inexplicably giving him the cold shoulder.
On entering, Laura informed him that Aurelia had gone to her brother’s place and wouldn’t be back for
the weekend.
A surge of annoyance ran through him, his frustration intensifying.
Laura, sensing his mood, brought out a book titled “Mental Health Guide for Pregnancy“.
“Sir, this book explains that pregnant women experience hormonal fluctuations leading to significant
mood changes. They may get temperament*l over trivial matters and may often find themselves in low
spirits. It’s not their fault, but due to hormonal changes. You need to be patient and help her manage
her emotions. Otherwise, she may develop depression.”
She paused before continuing, “In my hometown, there was a woman who fell into depression during
her pregnancy. Her in–laws were unsympathetic, often berating her. One night, she suicided. A tragic
loss of two lives. It was only then that her in–laws realized she had been suffering from depression.”
