Chapter 643

"So if a guy marries the wrong woman, he's toast; William said with weary wisdom, letting out a sigh, "I don't like Lisa, but she's a saint compared to the wicked witch, Megan. She doesn't cling like a simp, and she's got her head on straight”

Aurelia gently stroked Williarn's hair, silently agreeing with him, and she didn't want Arnold and Lisa to split up.

“Lisa's going to stay with the baby at Elysium. You'll have to make an effort to get along with her; she encouraged gently.

William blinked, confused. “But isn't Dad going to divorce her?"

"Lisa wants to give the baby a real family, with a mom and dad around” Aurelia explained softly.

"I miss our home in Goldstone,” William mumbled, casting his eyes down. Those were his happiest memories.

Arnold's heart ached at William's words. He dreamed of bringing Aurelia and William back to Goldstone, to relive their happy past. But times had changed, and that dream seemed impossible now.

Setting aside the issue with Leopold, Aurelia couldn't just forget about Kane.

Even if Aurelia agreed to reunite with him, they would have to stay in Elysium to keep Kane safe. Returning to Goldstone was out of the question.

Aurelia caressed William's hair again, "Sweetheart, Elysium is our home now. But if you miss Goldstone, how about we take Kane and spend Christmas there? You can catch up with all your friends, okay?"

"Really?" William's eyes lit up with excitement.

"Can I come too?" Skyler chimed in eagerly.

"Of course. Our place is huge, and there's room for everyone,” William beamed.

Meanwhile, Leopold's grip on his glass tightened from a nearby table. He was sure Aurelia was considering a reconciliation with Arnold.

If Arnold's divorce went through, he knew Aurelia’s heart would lean towards Arnold.

Just then, Megan walked in. She'd been bored to tears waiting at the hotel and hadn't seen Leopold emerge.

She decided to follow Aurelia, betting that Leopold would show up.

She scanned the crowd and didn't spot Leopold, which made her upset.

Aurelia's lips curled into a sneer, deliberately ignoring Megan's presence.

She was such a troublesome pregnant woman. Aurelia thought, “Is she not afraid of a miscarriage?" Megan purposefully sat near them and ordered a dessert.

It was strange that Leopold hadn't followed them. Could he still be at the hotel?

Thankfully, she had her bases covered with people watching the hotel lobby, ready to alert her the moment Leopold stepped out.

“I thought Leopold might sneak out to meet you guys here, Megan said with a forced casualness. William grimaced, "We've told you already that Uncle Leopold went back to Elysium."

Megan hummed lowly, "Do I look like a fool to be deceived by a three-year-old?"

William stuck out his tongue at her, "Believe it or not, you're the one wasting your time, not me." Skyler spoke up slowly, “William, don't tell her Leopold went back to Elysium. What if she runs back there and starts bothering him?"

"She can't even get through the gates of the Stirling family” William retorted, his words cutting deep into Megan.

Skyler's curiosity was piqued, "Why can't she get in?"

William chuckled, “Jessica said she’s not allowed to officially join the Stirling family until Kane turns eighteen.

She's worried she might try to harm him. Stepmothers are always the big bad wolf"

Megan felt like she was about to explode with rage. She wanted to strangle William and cut out his sharp tongue to see how he'd manage his venomous comments then.
