The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold)
Chapter 664

Chapter 664

Leopold spread his hands with a dismissive shrug, "Learning that stuff is pointless for me."

Oh really? Aurelia was seriously skeptical. Every time Leopold wanted to play his tricks, her body would go limp like a spell had been cast, soft as a clump of cotton, leaving her powerless to resist his advances. She was left at his mercy, vulnerable to his whims.

Could it be some sort of hypnotic spell he had cast on her?

"Regardless of whether you can or can't do it, don't you dare use it on me. Or else, I'll block you for life.”

Leopold smiled slyly. "I'm not a fan of force. I prefer when you come back into my arms willingly." Aurelia glared in his direction, “Since you know how to defend hypnosis, you better teach me, so I don't fall prey to it by accident.”

He reached out with his strong arm, drawing her slender waist closer. "Every day after work, we'll find a quiet place where you can learn properly.”

There was a catch, of course—lessons weren't free.

On Saturday, Leah rose early and headed to Aurelia's villa. She had to get her program all set for today's date.

She put on a lake-blue long dress, wearing a fresh and delicate makeup, making her look like a wave in the sea, like the first hint of light blue in the early morning sky. She was so pure and lovely, as beautiful as a painting, vibrant yet fresh, soft, dreamy, misty, ethereal, serene, and elegant. When noon approached, Avery arrived.

The moment he stepped in, a delightful aroma filled his nostrils. He strode into the kitchen and was surprised to find Leah cooking with ease—a stark contrast to her usual self, who struggled with even frying an egg.

"When did you learn how to cook?"

Leah turned with a radiant smile, “Just picked it up. I wanted you to taste a dinner I made myself. It's the only way this practice date will feel meaningful.”

Avery reached out, tenderly stroking her hair, “It's just a one-day trial run, no need to take it too seriously.”

Leah looked up at him earnestly, “It might not be a big deal for you, but it's significant for me. This is my first date in twenty years."

Avery cracked a small smile, “But it's only a practice date, not the real deal.”

Leah pouted, "Even a practice date should be treated with the seriousness of a real one. Can you please take it a bit more seriously? After all, I don't have a boyfriend right now, so who knows when the real date will happen?"

Avery pinched her rosy cheek, willing to do anything to distract her from getting too serious about love. If pretending to be her boyfriend for a day would give her a thrill, so be it.

"Alright, I'll play along for the day.”

Leah beamed, dimples flashing, “From now on, you're my boyfriend. Please wait in the living room; the food will be ready soon.”

Avery stepped out, leaving Leah to finish preparing a meal of beef stew with carrots, Lasagna, creamy shrimp, and steak—all Avery's favorites.

After setting the table, she drew the curtains and lit two elegant candles.

"Avery, dinner's ready"

Avery was indeed hungry, and he was eager to taste the fruits of her labor.

"It looks pretty impressive.” Avery praised.

Leah smiled coyly, "This is my first time cooking, and you're the first to taste my cooking.”

“I guess I'm quite honored then;" Avery replied with a charming smile, akin to sunlight on a lake's surface.

Leah picked up a piece of beef and held it to his lips. "Try it, tell me if it's good"

Avery took a bite, and to his surprise, it was quite delicious.

"Much better than I expected.”

With an impish raise of her eyebrow, Leah proclaimed, “I'm a woman who can dazzle in the boardroom and sizzle in the kitchen!"
