Aurelia settled into the couch, her hand resting gently on her rounded belly, “Once Geoffrey is out of
the picture, we'll have nothing to worry about. Life will be smooth sailing from here on out.”
Leopold wrapped his arms around her shoulders, “Honey, I'll handle him as soon as possible.”
She leaned into him, her head resting on his shoulder, “Just be careful, okay? He's got a bone to pick
with you, not me.”
He stroked her hair tenderly, “Worried about me?”
Her hand found his, “Of course I am. You're my husband, the father of my children. What would we do
if something happened to you?”
A smile played on Leopold’s lips, “If something did happen to me, you could always remarry. What else
would you do?”
Aurelia shot him a playful glare, “Don’t talk nonsense. I'm only getting married once. I don’t plan on
doing it again, so you better take care of yourself. And don’t forget to bring your bodyguard when you
go out.”
A strange glint flickered through Leopold’s deep eyes. “Darling, are you growing more fond of me by
the day?”
“You're the father of my four kids. How could I not care?”
Leopold gave her a deep, meaningful look, his gaze lingering, “We only have three children, honey.”
Choking her surprise, Aurelia coughed softly, “I didn’t want to leave Liam out.”
“Is it that you didn’t want to leave him out, or is he still alive?” Leopold asked abruptly, causing Aurelia’s
hand to jerk in shock, “What are you talking about?”
He didn’t miss her subtle reaction. “Did I scare you?” he asked.
“Not at all.” Aurelia quickly picked up a glass of lemonade from the table, sipping it to maintain her This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
composure.
“Then why are you trembling?” Leopold pressed, not willing to let her off the hook.
She lowered her gaze instinctively, her thick lashes veiling her flickering eyes, “Trembling? It’s quite
chilly today, don’t you think?”
“How can it be cold with the heating on? The windows are closed, and it's 26 degrees in here.” Leopold
easily exposed her lie.
Aurelia was internally flustered, her mind racing.
“I'm pregnant, feeling cold is quite normal.”
Leopold cupped her face, forcing her to look up at him, “Tell me the truth, is William Liam?”
Aurelia’s heart raced, the question catching her off guard.
“He doesn’t even look like you, so how can he be Liam?”
Leopold countered, “Arnold is my brother, and it’s not unusual for a man to resemble his uncle.”
Aurelia was at a loss for words. She wanted to reveal the truth, but she had promised William. If she
blurted it out now, he would surely be upset. She didn’t want to fracture their relationship.
Standing up from the sofa, she said, “I’m going to check on the kids in the backyard.”
Leopold tugged her back, “Are you avoiding my question?”
“I don’t want there to be any rifts between us, so let's not dwell on this topic.”
With that, she slipped out of his grasp and hurried off.
A sharp glint passed through Leopold’s eyes, his suspicions growing thicker.
