The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold) novel Chapter 666

Chapter 666

Leah chose a romance movie for their movie night, and as the closing credits rolled, night had already draped its velvet shroud over the world. Together with Avery, she wandered into the backyard to stargaze.

The sky was a flawless canvas tonight, stars scattered across its expanse like a million twinkling promises.

Avery glanced at the girl beside him, her rosy cheeks bathed in moonlight, innocence and youth etched into her features. Her eyes shone bright and clear.

Leah must have felt his gaze, for she turned toward him with a sweet smile that stretched across her face. In a bold, swift motion, she leaned in for a kiss. But Avery turned slightly, and her lips met his in a soft, unintended collision.

A static charge seemed to pass between them, making them both shudder ever so slightly.

Her lips were like the tender petals of a rose in first bloom, and for a moment, he was transfixed, deepening the kiss before the whole world seemed to fade away.

A cool breeze wafted over them, snapping him back to reality, and he quickly pulled away.

"It was just a... practice kiss’ he murmured, his voice rough with a husky undertone.

Leah's cheeks flushed. “I know, it makes it feel more real, like we're a couple."

Just then, a shooting star streaked across the sky, followed by another.

Leah squealed with exciternent, "Avery, is there a meteor shower tonight?"

He nodded, "Seems like it."

“Then we better make a wish; Leah said, pressing her hands together and closing her eyes.

She wished to remain by Avery's side forever, never to part.

She really, really liked Avery. She also hoped that when he discovered her true identity, he wouldn't be angry, that he would forgive her.

Avery lay back on the grass, arms behind his head, watching Leah with a mix of amusement and affection.

She's such an innocent girl, still believing in the fairy tale of wishing on falling stars.

“Mommy, I missed you.’ Kane wrapped his arms around Aurelia’s neck. "Can you stay and sleep with me tonight?"

“Of course,’ Aurelia nodded. “Tonight, I will stay with you, okay?"

Kane beamed, his bright smile revealing his white baby teeth. "Mommy, I want to show you the robot I made."

“Sure, sweetheart. Let me say hi to your grandma first, and I'll come to see your robot."

After she ascended the stairs and set Kane down, Aurelia made her way to Jessica's room.

Jessica was reclined on a sofa, immersed in a book.

“Mrs. Strling, Aurelia greeted Jessica respectfully, placing the sugar-free pastries she had baked on the coffee table. "I brought these for you."

“Thank you, dear,’ Jessica smiled warmly. "Kane has been talking about you these past few days."

Aurelia replied, ‘I've been a bit busy, but I'll make sure to visit more often from now on."
