Chapter 515 Leopold felt a sharp pang in his heart and he exclaimed, "Don't say that!" All he had ever done was meant to protect her, to keep her safe.
She was his whole world, more important than his own life.
Aurelia sighed softly. Life and death were out of their hands, and fortune was a matter of fate.
She didn't want to die. Her life had been a thrilling ride, filled with wealth and freedom, fame and power. Starting from the bottom, she had climbed to the top, and she had two intelligent and lovely sons.

Who would want to die, when life was so good? "Don't worry” she said, "even if | have to die, I'll take that bastard down with me. | won't rest in peace otherwise." “Aurelia.” He cupped her face in his hands, his gaze serious. "Whatever happens, you have to promise me you'll stay alive. I'm willing to do anything for you." Aurelia lowered her gaze. She didn't think she meant so much to him. If she were to die, he would eventually forget her and move on with someone else.
No one was indispensable in this world. Everlasting love didn't exist.
"I will stay alive, for my children, she said, "Otherwise, who knows how your next wife might treat them?" Leopold's eyes, gloomy as the night sky, flashed dangerously under the light. "They? Besides Kane, who else?" Aurelia gasped. Damn it! She had let something slip.
“Perhaps we might have more children in the future; she stammered.
He liked that and didn't dwell on it. His lips curved into a captivating smile.
“Let's have a daughter next.’ He leaned down to kiss her, eager to deepen their connection.
At the set of "Blue Lightning Strikes,” someone had come to visit Avery.
It was Bonnie.
Three years ago, she had grabbed some attention by hanging on Avery's coattails and had landed a leading role, but her career had never really taken off.

Avery's expression was indifferent, and he said, "Keep up the good work; Bonnie felt a wave of regret. The biggest mistake she had made was breaking up with Avery. Who would have thought that the guy who had once been at death's door in the ICU would now be a superstar? “Are you going to the Elysium Arts Theatre Academy reunion?" she asked.
"I'll try to make time,” Avery replied.
Bonnie wrung her hands nervously, "I've been thinking about our college days a lot. We were so carefree then.
Not like now, with all this pressure“ Avery gave a noncommittal smile, ‘I've forgotten the past. I'm happy with my life now. There's no need to dwell on the past.” He had loved Bonnie once, but the moment she left, it was over between them.
As for her talk about their astrological signs being incompatible, he didn't believe it for a second.
Bonnie bit her lip, "I heard Serenity Films is planning a major project, and the main roles are up to you and the director. | want to try out.” "Of course, I'm going to treat everyone the same; Avery replied, his tone still indifferent. He didn't want to get too close to her and stir up unnecessary rumors.
Bonnie understood, “I know we can't go back to the way things were. You're a superstar now, and a major shareholder of Serenity Films. I'm just a no-name actress. I'm not even worthy of being your friend. This must be my punishment.” Just then, a golf ball came flying out of nowhere, heading straight for Avery.
Bonnie pushed him out of the way. "Watch out!" The ball hit her on the forehead, leaving a large bump. Her vision blurred and she fell backward.
