Chapter 313
Overnight, the numbing effect of the alcohol had worn off, leaving Leopold exceptionally sober.
The events of the previous night were still fresh in his memory. Every detail about Aurelia was etched
deep in his mind, not a moment to be forgotten, even in his drunken stupor!
Laura brought in breakfast, “Sir, have some oatmeal to warm up your stomach. You’ve had a gastric
bleed before, you really can’t drink anymore.”
Leopold’s deep black eyes flickered, he said in a deep voice, “Laura, I saw Aurelia on the beach last
night.”
Laura’s hand, which was ladling the oatmeal, shook violently, “That’s impossible, Aurelia has
already…”
She choked a little, her voice becoming faint, “Could it be that Aurelia can’t let go of you and the child, NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.
and has crossed the ocean to see you?”
Leopold didn’t know. Last night, he was drunk, his consciousness was not very clear, he really thought
what he saw was…
But looking back today, he seems to still be able to feel the warmth she left on his fingertips. She was
so real that he could touch her, feel her familiar scent, as if she were still alive.
At this moment, Kane arrived, dressed in a preppy plaid suit, handsome, cool, and full of
aristocratic air.
Leopold quickly finished his breakfast and took his son to the event place.
When Kane made his entrance, he wore a Winnie the Pooh hat, not wanting to expose himself to the
media. ·
The tournament lasted for five days, and Kane defeated several masters, becoming the youngest
champion in the international chess world.
The news rocked the globe, many magazine reporters wanted to interview Kane, but he
refused.
Mystery and low–key were his consistent styles. Moreover, this was nothing to him, because he had
more talents.
After lunch, Aurelia took William for a stroll on the bustling main street. Arnold had a bit of a cold and
was resting in the hotel, she wanted to buy some lemons to supplement his
vitamin C.
William was wearing a white T–shirt, blue jeans, a baseball cap, and sucking on a lollipop.

He was so good–looking that passersby couldn’t help but stop to take a look.
They entered a supermarket, where a big screen was playing a replay of the chess tournament.
Seeing the little player with the Winnie the Pooh hat, William stopped with curiosity.
“Wow, this chess tournament must be exciting.”
Aurelia smiled and stroked his head, “Wait here for mommy, mommy is going to pick some lemons.”
“Okay.” William nodded.
Aurelia went to the fruit and vegetable area. She bought some lemons, along with some tropical fruits.
Suddenly, a tall and handsome figure came into view. Despite the distance, he stood out in the crowd,
recognizable at a glance.
Due to the excessive shock, her body stiffened instantly.
What was Leopold doing here? After the encounter on the beach that night, she had Arnold change
hotels, far away from that place. She never imagined that she would meet Leopold here, in this
inconspicuous supermarket!
She wanted to escape, but it was too late, Leopold had seen her too, and in the moment their eyes
met, he rushed towards her like a whirlwind.
“Aurelia–” Just then, a clerk pushing a cart full of goods walked by, blocking the way. Aurelia took this
opportunity to drop the fruits, quickly fled with her cane.
When she reached the supermarket entrance, she remembered her son. As she was about to go back
to find him, she saw a little boy in a white T–shirt and blue jeans walking from the parking lot not far
away.
“William, how did you get here? We have to go back.”
She grabbed the little boy’s hand, the little boy was startled, and tried to shake her off subconsciously,
but when he saw her beautiful face, he was stunned.
