SWNOVELS Chapter 42
Chapter 42
[Just in time for a new album shoot.]
[When we get to Paris, let me treat you to a meal. You must let me pay!]
Arnold didn't respond, and he just sent a coy smile emoji. He never allowed women to pay for him. She replied with a smile. [Thanks for the gift, I've never worn such a beautiful dress.]
She needed to start saving money to return the favor. Any gift for Arnold had to be luxurious. If she could snag the director's position, her salary would skyrocket!
Aurelia never expected that Leopold would also attend this jewelry exhibition, even offering them a ride on his private jet.
Upon arriving at the airport, just as they were about to board, Elowen and Elara hurried over. Elowen grabbed his sleeve, “Leopold, I want to go to Paris with you too.”
Leopold's eyebrows furrowed, and he shook off her hand, “I'm going there to work, not for a vacation.”
Elara smiled faintly, “Elowen planned her vacation to Paris long ago. When she heard you were going, she thought she could hitch a ride on your plane. She won't disturb you. If it's really inconvenient, she will take a commercial flight.”
If she wasn't there, Leopold would've decisively drove Elowen away.
Now, she had said so much. How could he possibly send Elowen away?
After all, she had always loved and spoiled him since he was a child. He should at least show his consideration.
"Once you are on the plane, you must behave.”
“I know.” Elowen was overjoyed.
Elara held Leopold's hand, “I'm entrusting Elowen to you. Take good care of her.”
“Don’t worry.” Leopold nodded slightly.
If she didn’t behave, he wouldn't hesitate to punish her.
Aurelia was originally excited, but upon seeing Elowen, she instantly felt uncomfortable. Her good mood
halved.
fully, Elowen could ignore her presence and not make snide remarks.
How could Elowen ignore her? Even if she really had an abortion, seeing her was still annoying. “Aurelia, this is your first time abroad, isn't it?”
“Yeah,” Aurelia responded politely.
Elowen clicked her tongue in contempt. She was sure Aurelia had never had the money to travel abroad.
“Do you, normal white-collar workers, dream all day about marrying into wealth?”
Aurelia put down her magazine, her expression was very calm, and her tone was neither fast nor slow. “Ms. Elowen, you have a sense of humor. Marriage is predestined. What is yours cannot be taken away, and what is not yours cannot be sought. Just go with the flow.”
“I see you're very active.” Before Elowen could finish, she was sternly interrupted by Leopold, “We're about to

Elowen stuck out her tongue and quickly sat down next to him.
“Leopold, why did you let Aurelia replace Kelly's position? She's inexperienced. She'll only embarrass herself and bring shame to Astral Enterprises.”
A cold light flashed in Leopold's eyes, “Wasn't your behavior just now embarrassing enough?”
His reprimanding tone made Elowen shiver, “I only spoke the truth. How many women of her status aren't mammonish?”
Leopold's eyes darkened.
Even though Aurelia had many shortcomings, it was not up to Elowen to criticize her. Nobody had the right to do so, except him!
“If you dare to provoke her again, I will immediately send you back to Elysium.”
Elowen pouted and deliberately said: “She couldn't seduce you, so she turned to Arnold. Maybe one day, she'll end up in Arnold's bed. I don't know if he would still want her after sleeping with her once. He's notorious for one-night stands.”
These words were like a needle piercing Leopold's heart.
The muscles at the corner of his mouth tightened, and a trace of murderous intent passed over his face.
Aurelia glanced over.
If she guessed correctly, Elowen was badmouthing her in front of Leopold.
Leopold had a poker face. The worse his mood, the colder his expression.
At this moment, his face was terrifyingly cold, even carrying a chill. Despite the distance, she could feel the chill.
Hopefully, she wouldn't be caught in the crossfire later.
