StarNovelChapter 450 “Megan, I've heard the Stirlings doesn’t think much of you as a daughter-in-law. They didn’t even allow you to visit them during Christmas. You've been treated unfairly, haven't you?” Callie tenderly asked, her heart aching.
Megan forced a smile, “It's just some relatives causing a ruckus. They're upset that Leopold divorced Aurelia without following the Stirling family traditions. But it's okay, as long as Leopold is good to me. Eventually, I'll become the matriarch of the Stirling family and change all those outdated rules.” Evelyn sauntered down the stairs, “Megan, you've been married to Leopold for a short time and he’s already got a mistress who's pregnant. Your term seems terribly short, doesn't it?” Megan's eyes flashed with anger, feeling Evelyn was deliberately trying to embarrass her.
“Those are just rumors. Leopold spends every day with me, where would he find time for a mistress?” Evelyn sank into the couch, pouring herself a cup of coffee, “Leopold's affair was confirmed by Aurelia herself. How could it be false?” Callie quickly interjected, “Megan, you can’t underestimate those home wreckers. You can’t be complacent.” Evelyn chuckled, “Mom, what are you worried about? Didn't Megan herself climb her way to Leopold's side? Isn’t that why the Stirling family looks down on her?” Callie shot her a glare ans snapped, “You useless girl, you let the golden goose slip from your grasp, and now you're kicking your sister when she’s down. There are plenty of seductresses around Leopold. If Megan didn’t fight for her position, how could she become his wife and uphold our family’s honor? She's done far better than you.” Evelyn felt a deep sting at her mother’s rebuke.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEver since childhood, her parents always favored Megan. She felt like the spare, and nothing had changed.
Megan took the opportunity to add salt to Evelyn's wounds, “Evelyn, Leopold loves me. No one can replace me in his heart. | heard that you tried to imitate me to gain his favor, is that true?” Evelyn gritted her teeth. Leopold was supposed to love her. If it weren’t for Megan's backstabbing and slander, he wouldn't have shifted his attention to Megan.
She took a deep breath, picked up her coffee, and headed upstairs.
As soon as she could dig up Megan's dirty secrets from the past six years, she’ll make Megan pay dearly.
1/2 10-35 In the morning, Kane visited Aurelia in her room.
“Mom, Dad said he’s taking me to the amusement park today. Can you come with us? I've never been to the amusement park with both of you.” Aurelia had mixed feelings about Leopold. She didn’t know what he was up to, but as long as they were still married, she wanted to keep her distance.
She wanted to say she had other plans for the day, but seeing hope and expectation in her son’s eyes, she found herself nodding in agreement.
Kane beamed, “I'll go call William.” Soon, Leopold arrived.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWilliam wore a little lion mask, and handed Kane a tiger mask.
When the two boys came downstairs, Leopold paused, momentarily unable to tell which one was his son.
The two boys’ eyes and mouths were all that were visible, they looked identical! “Dad!” Kane piped up, and Leopold finally knew that his son was the one in the tiger mask. Leopold cast a curious glance at William, wondering what the boy truly looked like underneath the mask.
Jolin prepared fruits and snacks for the boys.
Leaving the house, Aurelia and Kane walked ahead while Leopold and William trailed behind.
William tugged at Leopold's sleeve, “Uncle Leopold, did you change your name?” 10-35
