The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold)
Chapter 545

Chapter 545

"I see," Leah nodded.

Later in the evening, when Aurelia got home, Leopold paid a visit.

She gave him a sidelong glance, teasing him, "Mr. Leopold, you're quite the schemer, aren't you? Sending your cousin Leah to our place undercover.”

Leopold looked slightly taken aback, “You know about it?"

"Just found out! she replied with a pout.

Leopold reached out and ruffled her hair, “Undercover? I only found out a few days ago myself." Aurelia choked, "Impossible. It's not the first time you've met Leah. Are you telling me you can't recognize your cousin?"

Leopold smirked, "The last time I saw her, she was five. Girls change a lot as they grow up, so how was I supposed to recognize her?”

Aurelia sighed. Leah had come to Elysiurn, but surprisingly, she hadn't even been back to the Stirling family. She was braver than she thought.

Leopold had brought a device, a high-tech detector that could accurately detect trackers, bugs, and cameras.

Aurelia was shocked, “You think our place is being watched?"

"We'll know once we check.” Replying, he turned on the detector, and the radar began to scan for signals.

Soon, an alarm sounded, the signal was located near the coffee table. Aurelia was horrified and quickly turned the coffee table upside down, discovering a tiny object, no bigger than a button, hidden in a corner of the drawer.

"This is a bug,” Leopold said.

Anger flared up in Aurelia's face. Someone had planted a bug in their home.

"Blossom Villa has never had strangers. How could someone have planted a bug here?"

Leopold pulled up the living room surveillance, scanning the records of the past two months.

The only stranger who had been in the villa was Ritchie. The surveillance had clearly captured his act.

He had planted the bug in the drawer while Zack and Jolin were in the kitchen.

Aurelia was speechless.

Ritchie had quit his job as a security guard, following a so-called big boss and living a life of luxury. Perla finally had a chance to show off, with their family indulging in luxury and flaunting their wealth now and then.

Now, Aurelia understood. He had been bought off by their enemies.

The tracker in her bag must have been planted by him too.

Leopold informed the head of the special operations team.

After a few days of surveillance, Ritchie and his boss were secretly arrested by the police. They were all underlings of Kerry. Upon hearing the news, Kerry and Zachary wanted to fly overnight but were intercepted at the airport by the police.

A few days later, Perla went to see Belinda, crying her eyes out.

Belinda quickly called Aurelia over.

"The police have taken Ritchie away, and they say he’s involved with a gang. How could Ritchie do such a thing?"

Aurelia replied coldly, "His so-called boss is a criminal. For his selfish desires, he willingly worked for them, planting bugs and trackers in our home, and helping our enemies plot against Leopold and me. Even if I could forgive him, the Stirling family wouldn't. Let him learn his lesson in jail. Maybe he can turn over a new leaf"

Belinda slammed the table, "How could he do such a thing? I knew they weren't good people. How could they give him all that money for nothing?"

Perla collapsed onto the floor, wailing, “It's all Aurelia’s fault that Ritchie turned out this way. Her family has made so much money, but they can't even spare a few million for us. We still have to pay our mortgage. If Ritchie doesnt earn money, what are we supposed to do, starve?"

"By trying to kill me for money?" Aurelia grumbled, “You think he could earn eighteen thousand a month as a security guard? His salary was only five thousand. The rest was from me. The moment he has a bit of money, he goes on a spending spree. No matter how much he gets, he'll squander it all. With the money he got from betraying me, aside from gambling and womanizing, has he done anything worthwhile?"
