"If it comes to a family vote, you'd exercise your veto, right?" Without answering her question, Leopold instead said, "Now, you should talk to Jelena and get her to choose another form of compensation. It's better for everyone." Aurelia pursed her lips in annoyance. "I don't want Fredric as Jelena's husband either, the jerk." Slipping into her business attire, she headed off to the office.
In the afternoon, Beverley's message popped up on Aurelia's phone.
[Aurelia, | just heard sjuicy gossip from a friend. They say that Fredric and your cousin Jelena had car sex for five hours in the Century City parking garage the other night.] Aurelia was totally speechless. Good news stays in, but bad news travels far and wide.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWith so many people at that party, someone must have seen Jelena get in Fredric's car.
[It must be a rumor. Don't ever buy it.] [There's a video. Sending it over.] A video followed. A woman with killer curves climbed into a custom Rolls Royce. The license plate captured in the frbelonged to Fredric.
Soon enough, the car started to rock with vigor. Whatever was happening inside, it was intense.
Aurelia wiped her brow. If Beverley knew about it, it wouldn't be long before it reached Sheryl's ears.
At that moment, Sheryl was trying to persuade Raines and Lisbeth to back her at the family council.
Raines was out, leaving only Lisbeth at home.
Sheryl grabbed her hand. "Lisbeth, you're new to the Stirling family, so you might not be familiar with all our traditions. The Stirling family allows men to have mistresses, which is utterly unfair to the wives, so we Stirling women band together to keep the homewreckers at bay. Now Fredric wants to divorcefor stemptress, and I'll call for a family council. Jessica, Leopold, and Aurelia all oppose the divorce, and they'll stand with me. Arnold listens to Aurelia. If she's against it, so will he. | hope you and your husband will stand withto protect this family." Lisbeth bit her lip. "Are you sure Aurelia will side with you?" "Yeah, she toldso herself," Sheryl nodded confidently.
"Lisbeth, have you not heard about it?" Lisbeth pulled out her phone, opened the Whatgroup, and showed her the comments and the video.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Everyone's saying Fredric is screwing with Aurelia's cousin Jelena, and they had a five-hour car tryst. If Fredric is divorcing you for her, will Aurelia stand by you or side with her cousin?" Sheryl's face paled, a spasm of shock running through her.
Damn it! It was the siren Jelena again! Three years ago, Fredric had caused an uproar over her, threatening divorce.
So, the whole "resigning and going abroad’ was only a smokescreen, a diversion they set up for her. No wonder Fredric was always ‘traveling for business’. It was never about work but about clandestine meetings with her.
Did Aurelia know all along, playing dumb and leading her down a garden path? As Sheryl's rage grew, Lisbeth spoke again, "Sheryl, | know you get along with Aurelia, but Jelena is her family. If Jelena becher sister-in-law, that would double the family ties, solidifying her place in the Stirling family. With Leopold already in her pocket, Fredric would stand by Aurelia after marrying her cousin Jelena, and her power in the family would be unshakeable. She's the beneficiary, and why wouldn't she support her cousin?" Her words struck Sheryl deeply.
She even began to suspect Aurelia and her cousin Jelena had fooled her all this time.
"What a manipulative witch! She's completely fooled me." Lisbeth gave her a sympathetic look before adding, "How did Fredric meet Aurelia's cousin in the first place? Aurelia didn’t set them up, did she?"
