NovelOnlineChapter 509 “Even the wisest men can falter, Mr. Leopold. Despite your remarkable intellect and strategic mind, you were blindsided. You were so certain about divorcing me, so eager to rekindle the flame with your childhood sweetheart, Megan. But you didn't see it coming that she was just a pawn placed by our enemies, did you?" Her voice was laced with a mocking tone.
Leopold felt as if a cloud of blame had suddenly descended on him. He was indeed in a bitter predicament with no way to express his grievances. "What childhood sweetheart? I've told you, Megan and | were just friends.” Aurelia snorted at his stubborn denial. In her mind, admitting to being fooled would mean losing all dignity, so he always denied it like this. His love for Megan was undeniable, and all people were aware of it. After Megan disappeared, he never dated again.
The first love, the unforgettable romance, was not something one could easily forget.
So, when she was admitted to the ICU, he couldn't resist the temptation and rekindled his old flame with Megan.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen he learned about Megan's betrayal, his love probably turned into hatred. His mind cleared, no longer blinded by love, and his rationality returned. Now, he was probably using Megan, hoping to expose the mastermind behind the scenes through her.
That must be the reason he hadn't divorced her yet, and this was also a punishment for Megan.
She frowned, saying, "Alright, whatever you say." She could choose to feign ignorance, deal with the external enemies first, and then resolve the internal conflicts.
Leopold sighed, and he didn't want to explain too much. When everything ended, that would be the day of his vindication.
Aurelia glanced at the watch, and it was already eleven oclock.
“It's late. | should go home and sleep. | have work tomorrow." She opened the car door and got out.
Every time she saw Leopold, her mood inexplicably became heavy.
They had been divorced for some time now, but the wound in her heart hadn't healed yet.
She was still bitter about being abandoned by him.
In the morning, while Aurelia was having breakfast, William ran over.

William took out a piece of paper, "I have already designed the style." Aurelia glanced at the design, and it was very beautiful and creative. William had indeed inherited her design talent.
But...
“Are you sure you want to give a diamond necklace?" William was earnest and said, "Mommy, only precious gifts can be preserved. Cheap gifts will be thrown in the trash over time." Aurelia paused, then said softly, "Honey, it's the thought that counts, not the value of the gift. The notebooks and pens my classmates gave me, | still keep them. They are beautiful memories of my childhood, how could they be thrown away?" “Mommy, not everyone is like you. Nellie said that when they moved, her parents threw away all the gifts from her kindergarten classmates.” William blinked his big eyes at her, "If | give her a diamond necklace, her parents definitely won't throw it away. It's designed by the son of the world's most famous jewelry designer, Aurelia. And it will surely increase in value over time." Aurelia sighed softly.
William's high IQ naturally made him more sensitive to the darker side of human nature.
Understanding the cunning and opportunistic nature of people from a young age was not necessarily a bad thing.
"Since you've made up your mind, | will teach you how to make it when | come home from work tonight.”
