Chapter 1223

Leopold was back from work.
Thinking she was still asleep, he quietly took a seat beside her, adoringly watching her rest. He could
never tire of looking at Aurelia.
Aurelia, however, wasn't asleep. She cracked open her eyes and whispered, "You're home?"
"Yes, did I wake you?" he asked gently, stroking her hair.
