Chapter 253
Sipping on her smoothie, Jelena suddenly remembered something and murmured, “There’s a high–
profile party tomorrow. Would you like to come with me?”
Aurelia shook her head, “I’m pregnant, and I can’t drink or dance, so I should probably pass.”
Jelena gave her a reassuring pat on the shoulder, “Don’t worry. It’s a simple gathering. We’ll just chat,
nibble on some appetizers, and maybe play some board games. As you’re about to marry into the
Stirling family, you should familiarize yourself with the crowd.”
Jolin chimed in with a smile, “Jelena’s got a point. You should go. As long as you avoid intense
activities, you’ll be fine.”
“Alright,” Aurelia gave a slight nod, feeling a bit hot, and she loosened her scarf.
The love bite on her neck was exposed. This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
Jolin noticed it right away and asked anxiously, “Aurelia, your neck’s all red. Did you have an allergic
reaction?”
Aurelia suddenly remembered the love bite left by Leopold and quickly tied back her scarf, “I think
something bit me yesterday, and it turned red after I scratched it.”
Jelena caught her strange move. Sitting closer, she had a better view than Jolin.
It certainly looked like…
In disbelief, she took a sip of her juice, keeping her thoughts to herself.
Aurelia may have had another man besides Arnold.
Arnold was the man who was adored by the most prestigious women, celebrities, and supermodels. He
was unrivaled, and the only one who could surpass him was his brother, Mr. Leopold.
She didn’t think Aurelia would cheat on Arnold and ruin her perfect marriage.
She picked up her glass and took a sip of the juice, keeping all her thoughts in her heart without
uttering a single word.
Jolin, oblivious to the situation, advised, “Pick up some calamine lotion on your way home, and it’s safe
for pregnant women.”
“Sure,” Aurelia nodded.
The next day after work, Aurelia and Jelena headed to the party. It’s a popular gathering spot for the
upper crust.
Upon entering, they ran into Fredric.
Aurelia knew he’d be there. High society had their exclusive circles, outsiders could only get in if they
were invited.
Seeing Aurelia, he greeted her with a smile, “Never thought I’d become an uncle so soon.”
Among the Stirling brothers, he was the only one married, hence they didn’t have nieces or nephews.
Aurelia blushed, “That’s the beauty of life, and you never know what’s going to happen next.”
Just as they sat down, Leopold and Evelyn strolled in.
Aurelia was in the middle of sipping her juice and almost choked.
10.10 –
Life was indeed unpredictable. If she’d known he was coming, she wouldn’t have come.
Leopold spotted her immediately. So this was where she was headed when she mentioned meeting up
with Jelena.
“Leopold.” Fredric waved.
Leopold walked over with Evelyn, sitting down on the circular couch.
“Mr. Leopold, Ms. Evelyn,” Aurelia greeted them, feeling a bit awkward.
It seemed like Leopold was always with Evelyn lately. He was completely lovestruck.
Behind his cool and aloof exterior hid a hopeless romantic. It was unthinkable.
Feeling embarrassed, she quickly bit into a piece of cake.
Leopold noticed her reaction. She was probably cooking up crazy theories in her head again.
Evelyn smirked, “Aurelia, I didn’t expect you to fit into the Stirling family so quickly”
“Your relationship is just budding, but Aurelia is already part of the family. Arnold told us once the baby
is born, they’ll marry in Malta,” Fredric chuckled.
