Leopold's face turned stormy, a clear sign that he was being deliberately provoked.
With unerring precision, each word of Aurelia seemed to hit his weak spots.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe most infuriating was that he had always been on the defensive in this relationship, utterly powerless to retaliate.
Aurelia couldn't care less about him. He was always the invisible man in her life.
Leopold could hold the reins of control firmly in his hands disregardless of formidable adversaries, shifting from passive to assertive with ease. But facing Aurelia, he found everything was unpredictable and beyond his grasp.
He despised women who clung like sticky plaster, yet he hoped that Aurelia would bechis superglue, sticking to him so fiercely they could never part.
While he stewed in silent frustration, Beverley chuckled, "You're trying to get a rise out of Leopold, aren't you?" Aurelia let out a soft laugh, her gaze drifting to Leopold, who was standing beside her, and said provocatively, "I'm still so young and won't be single forever. I'll date someone eventually. The line of my suitors could stretch all the way to Paris." Beverley pulled a face. "Leopold has a lot going for him, but his one flaw is his taste. If he knew you were seeing someone else, he'd be green with regret." Aurelia shrugged nonchalantly. "Not necessarily. Leopold is the moon surrounded by a constellation of admirers. Even if he did regret it, it would only be temporary. Before long, he'd be lost in another tender embrace." Hearing this, Leopold felt like he was internally hurt, as if a herd of wild horses was stampeding through his soul.
All these years, he had remained pure as jade, untouched by any woman but her. And she had the audacity to smear his reputation! Beverley sighed. "We thought Arnold would be the one most like Chad, but it turns out to be Leopold." She patted Aurelia’s shoulder. "Aurelia, Arnold is the one who truly loves you. He'll divorce Lisa soon enough. Just wait for him, don’t miss your chance." "Whatever will be, will be," Aurelia said lightly, smiling. "If fate decrees it, we'll meet despite the miles. If not, even togetherness leads to parting." Leopold's mood had darkened considerably. The last thing he wanted was a comparison to Arnold. Beverley's every word hit him like bullets.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNow, everyone thought of him as a playboy, while Arnold was seen as a devout lover. His injustice and grievances were greater than those of the most wronged souls. Perhaps one day, even the heavens would sympathize with Leopold to tears.
Beverley let out another sigh. Fate was something you couldn’t chase after. Nobody knew who their true soulmate was.
"Finding true love isn't common. Most people marry for companionship, to share the burdens of life, to care for each other and raise children. For those of us without financial worries, love without marriage is a blessing. A marriage is a double-edged sword.
For the wealthy, it often brings more trouble than benefit." Aurelia understood her intention. For the rich, divorce meant the division of assets.
Her peaceful divorce from Leopold was because he had voluntarily given her half of their marital wealth.
"It's not easy to find someone who truly loves you in this world. For many, love is the cheapest and the most disposable commodity. Only benefits matter." Beverley scoffed, "No one values what they can get for free." Leopold massaged his forehead. Was love really so cheap? He didn’t think so. Even with all his wealth, he couldn't win her heart.
