Aurelia firmly believed that he would be a good husband, yet, she was unsure if there was a woman in
the world who could soothe his restless heart.
After all, he was like the wind, free–spirited and untamed.
“What if you end up marrying a woman you do not love?” Elowen unexpectedly blurted out.
Arnold fell silent. It was impossible for him to be faithful to a woman he held no affection for!
He took a small swig of his beer, his eyebrows furrowing slightly, “Why would I marry a woman I do not
love?”
Elowen cast her gaze downward, she realized that if she could not make Leopold fall in love with her,
her life would be more miserable than her aunt. There would always be women around him.
Aurelia let out a soft sigh, “Marriage must be founded on love. A loveless marriage will never bring
happiness.”
Elowen finished her drink, venting her frustration and depression, “Why doesn’t Leopold like me? He
used to like Megan, now he likes Evelyn. What do they have that I lack?”
“Perhaps it’s because you love him too much.” Aurelia refilled her glass with juice, trying to prevent her
from getting drunk, “You are too good to him, and that might prevent him from cherishing you.”
Her words hit the nail on the head.
Elowen nodded, “You’re right, my mentor said the same thing. That’s why I need to change and show
him that I am way better than Evelyn and Megan.”
As a man, Arnold knew she was wasting her energy, but he didn’t want to discourage her. Let her keep
trying! The more Leopold got entangled with them, the further Aurelia would distance herself from
Leopold. And that was exactly what he wanted.
Aurelia picked up a small cupcake, took a bite, and her eyes unintentionally fell on Leopold. She
noticed that Sheryl had taken a seat next to him.
Sheryl seized the opportunity when Evelyn had excused herself to the restroom.
“Leopold, you’re not really thinking about breaking off your engagement with Elowen to be with Evelyn,
are you?”
Leopold remained silent.
She sighed, “Being a daughter–in–law of the Stirling family is not as good as it seemed to be. I’d be
better off returning to Hollywood.”
Leopold took her wine glass and replaced it with a glass of orange juice,” Sheryl, don’t drink too much.
If you want to make a comeback, I support you.”
Shery! raised her hand to her forehead, “My mother–in–law advised me to have a son soon. I’ve
already had two daughters, it’s time for a son.”
Leopold looked at her solemnly, “One thing’s for sure, as long as you don’t make any mistakes, you’ll C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
always be my sister–in–law.”
Sheryl gave a bitter laugh. She knew this was the only assurance the Stirling family could give her. Her
mother–in–law had clung to this assurance and finally ascended to the throne as the lady to the
house.
“Alright, I’ll give birth to a son. If one is not enough, I should have at least three more to keep the

at bay.
Aurelia watched her from a distance, unable to hear her words, but she could see the sadness and
loneliness on her face.
There were rumors about her marrying into the rich family on the internet.
It was said that she was the third party in her best friend’s relationship.
Fredric’s girlfriend before their marriage was her best friend Joyce. She met Fredric through Joyce.
They had an affair, and she got pregnant. With a baby bump, she confronted Joyce, which led to Joyce
attempting suicide. Fortunately, she was saved in time.
A pitiful person always has a hateful side. She did not sympathize with Sheryl, but only hoped her
cousin would not follow in her footsteps.
Fredric was not a man she could entrust her life to!
After the party, Aurelia returned to her apartment to fetch some clothes.
She didn’t expect that as soon as she entered, Leopold arrived.
She glanced at him indifferently, “I’m here to grab some clothes. I’ll be staying at Avery’s for a few
days.”
Leopold’s face turned grim.
Why was she cheerful around Arnold, but became depressed at the sight of him?
