The CEO’S Unplanned Heir ( Aurelia Hawthorne ) - Season 2 Episode 97

After the meeting, Kevin trailed after Leopold into his office, “Mr. Leopold, the handbag you ordered will

be air freighted from Paris the day after tomorrow.”

“Toss it!” Leopold squeezed out these words through gritted teeth, an ominous chill emanating from him

that seemed to turn the office frosty.

Kevin sighed heavily. He had to do something. Being constantly in the crosshairs of Leopold’s stormy

moods felt like being on the verge of being struck by lightning at any moment.

“Ms. Aurelia’s eyes are red and swollen. Did she cry yesterday?”

A cold light shot from Leopold’s eyes, sharp as a blade. “Do you have too much time on your hands?”

Kevin cleared his throat, gathering his courage. “When a woman suddenly sulks, gives you the cold

shoulder and cries in secret, she’s probably jealous.”

Leopold paused, a glimmer of light momentarily breaking through his icy gaze.

Aurelia was jealous? That was a new thought!

Seeing Leopold fall silent, Kevin continued, “Your recent affair with Evelyn has been all over the news.

Ms. Aurelia must know something about it. The day you told me that Aurelia started sulking for no

reason coincided with your trip to the horse racing track with Evelyn. There were many intimate videos

of you two. Could it be that Ms. Aurelia saw them too?”

Leopold leaned back in his grand office chair, his fingers pinching the bridge of his nose. Half of the

anger in his chest extinguished upon hearing Kevin’s analysis.

Seeing his expression soften, Kevin breathed a sigh of relief, “Mr. Leopold, should we wait for the

handbag?” His long fingers swept over his cheek, his gaze suddenly sharpening, instantly regaining its

chill. “Throw it away. Don’t make me repeat myself.”

For two consecutive days, Leopold didn’t visit the apartment. Aurelia knew he would never come

again.

It was fine, she enjoyed her freedom. He didn’t need to run back and forth and could devote his time to

his new girlfriend.

It was a win–win situation.

Except their unborn children seemed unhappy, stirring in her belly every night, refusing to sleep. It was

as if they were waiting for their father, disrupting her sleep, making her drowsy at work.

After lunch, she lay on her desk for a nap when her phone rang. It was Kevin, asking if he could have a

word with her on the rooftop.

On the rooftop, Kevin presented the handbag that was air freighted from Paris.

“Last week, Mr. Leopold noticed that you were suddenly unhappy. He especially had this handbag

custom made in Paris to cheer you up. I don’t know what happened between you two, but Mr. Leopold

seems very angry and asked me to throw the handbag away. It’s worth a fortune and just arrived today,

isn’t it a shame to throw it away?”

Aurelia was stunned! The boss actually wanted to gift her a handbag?

She took the box and peeked inside. God! Was this the legendary Hermès?

“Why throw it away? Can’t he just give it to Evelyn? She loves Hermès.”

Evelyn’s bags were all Hermès.

Kevin wiped a bead of sweat off his forehead, hearing her say this confirmed his guess, Aurelia was

indeed upset about Evelyn, “This was custom made for you. Your name is engraved on it, how can he

give it to someone else?”

Aurelia bit her lip. The sunlight shone on the white crocodile skin, casting a silvery glow as captivating

as the snow–capped peaks of the Himalayas.

She knew the boss was wealthy, but didn’t expect him to be this extravagant. Such an expensive bag,

to just throw it away, wasn’t that a waste?

“Don’t throw it, keep it with me for now. Maybe one day he will… cool down.”

Kevin revealed a sly smile, “Well, Ms. Aurelia, if you have the ability to upset Mr. Leopold, I’m sure you

also have the ability to soothe him.”

Only she could pull off such a feat!

Aurelia gave an awkward smile.

Soothe him? Easier said than done.

Kevin didn’t understand the severity of the situation. She had slapped the boss, something no one else

in the world dared to do!
