Chapter 464 The disappointment in Megan's heart rose and fell like ocean waves. She had planned to flaunt her relationship, to rub it in Aurelia’s face, but Leopold wasn’t playing along.
“I'm the wife of the CEO of Astral Enterprises, so | should be accompanying you to this event. It wouldn't be appropriate for your ex-wife to be accompanying you,” As she spoke, her eyes raked over Aurelia’s face, as if wishing she could kill her with her gaze.
Aurelia did her best to remain calm, not wanting a single bitter pill to spoil her mood.
“Mr. Leopold, I'm going to excuse myself.” She turned to leave, not wanting to stay a second longer, lest she would be sad.
Regardless of whether Leopold's words were true or false, seeing him with Megan stirred up all her resentment, her hatred, and her pain, making it impossible for her to think clearly.

Seeing this, Emma rushed over and put her arm around her, “Easy on the drinks, and don’t get drunk.” “I'm fine.” She waved her hand dismissively.
“Megan is just trying to provoke you, so don't fall for her tricks,” Emma warned.
“I know.” She smirked. Those who did evil would eventually face their punishment. Justice may be slow, but it never failed to arrive.
Leopold watched her retreating figure, feeling a pang of guilt. This was supposed to be her happiest and most shining day, but now she was clearly upset.
Megan's voice came from beside him, “Leopold, I'm your wife. Since New Year's, you haven't even reached out to me. Do you know how lonely I've been? How much I've missed you? | want a husband, not just a marriage certificate.” “You shouldn't be too greedy, or you'll meet a bad end. Remember that,” Leopold said coldly, and then walked away, leaving her standing there, utterly humiliated.
Afraid of losing face, she quickly found a secluded corner and sat down.
Whispers spread through the banquet hall as people watched the scene unfold.
“I thought it was a fairytale come true, that Cinderella really did marry the prince and live happily ever after. But reality is cruel.” 12 11-23 Chapter 464 “Megan is his first love, after all.” “Looks like Mr. Leopold is regretting it now. Megan is here to show off to Director Aurelia, isn’t she?” “I heard that Mr. Cooper from Ethereal Gems is pursuing Director Aurelia. He sent her roses this morning. If he manages to win her over, Astral Enterprises is going to suffer a big loes.” The banquet soon began. The host came up on stage and gave an opening speech.
This was followed by the sales director announcing the impressive global performance of “Gleam & Shadow Love*.
Since its launch, Astral Enterprises‘ shares had been on a continuous rise.
The happiest were the major shareholders and directors.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThen, it was Aurelia’s turn to speak.
“The success of Gleam & Shadow Love is not my achievement alone. It's the result of the collective effort of all my colleagues in the design, production, marketing, and business departments. | especially want to thank Mr. Leopold for his constant trust and support...” Around of enthusiastic applause followed her speech.
Just as the host was about to continue, Megan suddenly stood and rushed to the stage, snatching the microphone from his hand.
“Today is Astral Enterprises’ celebration. | also want to announce some good news.” She deliberately raised her voice, her words clear and resounding, “I'm pregnant.” A gasp went through the crowd, and then silence. All eyes were on her, filled with a mixture of surprise and disbelief.
No one offered congratulations, only deafening silence that heightened the awkwardness. This was Aurelia’s night, and no one was foolish enough to congratulate Megan and risk offending Aurelia.
Even the host was at a loss for what to do.
