The CEO's Unplanned Heir novel Chapter 309

Three years later...

Nestled within the serenity of Long Island, in a beautiful tulip-decked villa, a stunning woman was painting in the garden.

Her brown hair, cascading over her shoulders like a waterfall, billowed gently in the breeze.

A little boy ran out from the house. His exquisite face, as though sculpted by Venus herself, radiated an extraordinary charm under the sun's rays, enough to make even angels blush with envy.

"Mommy, what are you painting?"

"Geese. It's their season to fly in from the south."

Aurelia caressed her son's head. Every time she looked at his little face, it reminded her of Leopold and Kane.

Leopold must have forgotten her by now. To him, she was a disposable presence. Her only hope was that his new wife would be kind to Kane.

Grasping her cane, she rose from her seat.

These past three years had been hard. The doctors had said that she might be wheelchair-bound for life, but she refused to accept that. She sought treatment, underwent physiotherapy, and finally managed to stand on her own again.

However, her left leg still felt weak and relied on the support of the cane.

"William, where's your daddy?"

"Daddy's cooking, there's confit duck!" the little boy responded in his sweet, childish voice.

Aurelia smiled, leading him into the house.

Arnold brought out the duck from the kitchen.

"Smells so good." The little guy licked his lips. He loved daddy's confit duck the most.

Aurelia laughed, "We're so lucky to have a man who cooks so well."

She was grateful to Arnold. He had saved her and Liam. He had stayed by her side, unwavering. He had encouraged her, cared for her, and had given her the strength to stand again.

Arnold looked at the mother and son, his fondness for them apparent, "Dinner will be ready soon."

He knew that these past three years of happiness were stolen from Leopold.
