Chapter 441 Megan was here for the issue about Katie.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Leopold, is Katie really pregnant, and is the child yours?” Leopold paused his typing, leaned back in his executive chair, and took a sip from his coffee mug before responding coldly, “That's none of your business.” Megan’s face turned upset. “I'm your wife, Leopold. If you fathered a child out of wedlock, shouldn't you have told me?” Leopold tapped his long fingers on the desk, a cruel smile playing on his lips. “As my wife, you should treat all my children as your own, do you understand?” Megan's heart pounded. Katie was pregnant before her, so Katies child would be the elder. She wouldn't let that happen. No one but her should bear Leopold's child.
“According to the Stirling family tradition, if a mistress gets pregnant, she should be sent abroad to give birth. Shouldn't you start making arrangements for Katie?” Leopold's gaze darkened. “Indeed, that is a tradition, but it must be suggested by the first wife and decided by the matriarch. You are neither, so you don’t have the right to invoke this rule.” Megan felt a surge of frustration. Was she, his wife, without any rights? Was she just a wife in name? “The second wife is also legally recognized and protected, doesn’t the Stirling family code have anything to protect the rights of a second wife?” Leopold was nonchalant. “The Stirling family code has been modified and perfected by generations of patriarchs and matriarchs.
But since all the matriarchs of the Stirling family have been first wives, there’s no provision for the rights of the second wife.” Megan wanted to scream. The first wife! The mere mention of the term made her blood boil! Once she became the matriarch, she would erase all the provisions protecting the first wife and replace them with protections for the second wife. Anyone who disagreed would be expelled from the Stirling family.
“Leopold, | truly love you. Can’t we go back to the time when it was just the two of us? | don't like you being surrounded by so many women. You used to be so aloof, not giving a second glance to women who admired you.” Leopold raised an eyebrow, a hint of arrogance in his smile. “| was an heir then, but now I'm the patriarch. Can they be the same? Which Stirling man doesn’t have multiple wives and mistresses? As the patriarch, wouldn't it be humiliating if | had only one woman?” 1/2 10:50 Megan was at a loss. Leopold's mind was a mystery to her.

Can't we just five like an ordinary couple?” Leopold sneered, “If you want to replace Aurelia, you should do better than her. If you can't be as tolerant and get along with others as she did, you are not fit to be my wife, and you should step aside.” Megan felt like she had a bone stuck in her throat. She was sure, Aurelia’s tolerance was just an act. How could she possibly get along with Leopold's mistresses? But before Aurelia’s true colors were revealed, she was ousted.
As she fell silent, Leopold's cold voice reached her ears again, “If there’s nothing else, you can leave. | have a meeting.” Frustrated, she left. She needed to figure out how to deal with Katie to make her miscarry.
In no time, it was Christmas.
On Christmas Eve, Rahul's family went to the Aurelia’s residence for a family dinner.
Regarding Aurelia’s divorce, Perla looked gleeful.
*Aurelia, how have you been lately? You barely enjoy the life of the Stirling family’s young lady and you were kicked out. It seems like it's not easy to be a part of a wealthy family. Without some kind of leverage, you'll be thrown out even if you marry in.” 2/2
