int of a smile tugged at Leopold's lips.

This woman was more attractive when she was compliant.

“You're too thin, you don't even look pregnant, eat more.”

Aurelia took a bite of lobster.

That was the whole point, to slip under the radar.

After all, she was a woman. She had to pay attention to her body shape, she couldn't let herself become

bloated and unattractive.

Moreover, eating too much would make the babies grow too big, which might lead to a difficult delivery.

“This is the result of practicing prenatal yoga, a pregnant woman can't just eat anything and everything, maintaining a balanced diet is the most important.”

Leopold's gaze swept over her chest, subtly warming.

It had definitely gained some extra weight, going up a cup from before.

There was a moment of silence at the table..

Aurelia had som

't have to pay. And my job is going pretty well, I've been covering his expenses, so you don't have to

worry."

Leopold leaned back in his chair, watching her with a somber expression.

He couldn’t hear what she was saying, but he was certain it was about money.

Was she purposely moving away because she felt guilty?

Jolin seemed relieved after hearing her daughter's words.

"Aurelia, don't spend all your money on Avery, save some for yourself. You're not getting any younger, and you can get yourself a partner.”

Aurelia smiled, “Mom, consider this an investment. Once Avery hits it big, do you think I'll lack for anything?” Her comment made Jolin laugh, “Alright, go eat. When Avery comes back, have him call me."

"Okay."

After hanging up, Aurelia returned to the table.

Leopold poured her a glass of juice, “Is your child support enough?”

She was taken aback for a moment and then laughed awkwardly, “Of course.”

If she could become a director, her salary would double, and with bonuses, she would be able to repay him.

Just as she was thinking this, she heard Leopold's voice across the table, “Isn't it better to be a CEO's wife than a director? Could a director make as much money?”

She took a sip of her juice, looking at him seriously, “One is money I earned through hard work, the other is given by someone else. How could they be the same?”

Leopold raised an eyebrow, was this her last act of defiance?

"Actually, having someone give you money is a skill in itself.”

Aurelia remained silent.

He was the kind of person who only cared about the result, not the process.

Her eyes swirled with a mischievous glint. Leaning in slightly, she lowered her voice, her words intended only for his ears, “Mr. Leopold, have you forgotten that I'm already your wife? Even if our marriage is al

e soup, and suddenly, she murmured, almost in a whisper, “Mr. Leopold, have you ever thought about what we would do if our little secret was discovered?”

Leopold raised an eyebrow, nonchalantly tossing back a few words, “I'll handle it, don’t worry.” Aurelia could tell he had a plan, after all, he was a man of deep scheming.

But...

“Don’t you dare think about putting me under house arrest abroad again, I would rather die than go."

Leopold's gaze turned frosty, the sea breeze suddenly turning chilly.

“It will depend on whether you behave or not.”

She pouted, “I've always honored the contract, I've never stepped out of line.”

Leopold grumbled, a shadow of hostility crossing his face, “Flirting with other men while carrying my children, is that honoring the contract?”

The mere thought of her and Arnold laughing and chatting drove his temper through the roof. She choked a bit, rolling her eyes at him, “That's just normal socializing, making friends. Besides, Arno isn’t an outsider, he’s your brother, the babies’ uncle.”

Leopold clenched his fork a little tighter. He had never experienced brotherly love growing up. “Since you know he’s part of the Stirling family, you should understand, being my wife, even in name only, means you

can't have any connection with him.”

Aurelia felt a twinge in her heart, her eyelids instinctively falling, casting a shadow on her eyelids, “He and I are just friends, whether you're in the picture or not, it won't change our relationship.” Her voice became very low, like twilight hanging in the air.

Leopold caught this subtle reaction, his heart twisting uncomfortably.

He grabbed his glass, gulping down a mouthful of wine.

He thought the wine was incredibly sour!

The dining table fell into a deathly silence.

The waves furiously crashed against the rocks, roaring in the background.

The sound seemed to invade their hear
