Chapter 588 "God, | hope you're not a total screw-up like Mr. Chad," Aurelia muttered with a scoff.

Mr. Chad was indeed a bad penny. Not only was he a notorious playboy, but he also treated his wife like dirt.

The poor Jessica must have been cursed to have ended up being with him.

Leopold draped an arm around her shoulder with a reassuring grip. "Don't worry. | didn't inherit his genes.

Arnold, though, is practically a chip off the old block." Aurelia shot him a playful glare. “Arnold just took your father’s look. The personality? Not at all. | bet your eldest brother Fredric did take after Mr. Chad in the playboy genes." Leopold grinned slyly and said nothing, seemingly conceding to her point.

They were in the midst of their banter when a high-pitched voice trilled from behind. “Honey, I'm here!" Leopold turned with a start, his mood souring at the sight of Megan, carried up the trail by a team of porters, like some modern- day Cleopatra.

Money talks, and with enough of it, there wasn't much that couldn't be done.

His frown deepened, and his day with Aurelia, which was supposed to be wild outdoor sex, was ruined by the bummer, Megan.

Aurelia admired her in a way. Megan's clinginess was like superglue on steroids.

She seriously doubted whether Leopold would manage to cut the ties and divorce her in two months.

The odds, as they stood, didn't look good.

Aurelia jogged ahead to catch up with William and Skyler, leaving Leopold to his brooding.

Leopold's gaze was sharp like a blade as it swept over Megan's face, then he continued up the path, determined to ignore her.

Megan's heart churned with tides of disappointment. "Hurry up. Keep up with my husband!" She was determined to stick to Leopold like a shadow, not giving Aurelia, that wretched woman, a chance.

One of the porters commented, "Ma'am, it seems things aren't so hot between you and your husband. He's not even looking your way." Megan's face darkened. "Nonsense. We're good." "| think your husband's got a wandering eye. | bet he’s got a thing for that beauty up ahead, the porter said, eyes gleaming with gossip.

Megan snorted, “That's his ex-wife. He dumped her because he didn't love her." "If had an ex-wife that stunning, I'd rather die than divorce her,’ remarked another porter.

Megan glared at him. "Can she compare to me? I'm the belle of Elysium. I'm not wearing makeup right now because of the pregnancy. If | were, she couldn't hold a candle to me." The porter didn't think so. The beauty ahead wasn't wearing makeup, either. If she couldn't win without makeup, the result wouldn't be different when wearing makeup.

"Us regular folks struggle to get a wife. Rich men have harems of beauties.” Megan insisted, "My husband only loves me. Other women are just for show. He won't give them a second glance" "Ma'am, there's no such thing as a man who doesn't stray. Poor men just lack the means. Rich or poor, every man plays around in secret. I've never seen a faithful one,’ the porter said.

Megan felt like she'd been stung. Her pride was wounded.

"My husband is one of a kind. How dare you compare him to those ordinary tycoons? We were each other's first love. It was only an accident that tore us apart. He fought his entire family to marry me. His love for me is real." The porter, however, wasn't buying it. It was obvious that Leopold was loved his ex-wife.

Ahead, Leopold handed Aurelia a bottle of water.

“Tired? Want to take a break?" But Aurelia was determined to reach the peak, eager to put as much distance as she possibly could between herself and Megan.

Little William, who was only three and a half, was starting to pant with exhaustion.

Seeing her son's fatigue, Aurelia decided to rest, settling him down on a rock and handing him the water.

Skyler sighed, “Aurelia, with that mean lady here, are we... are we not going to have fun anymore?"
