My Wife is a Sassy Queen

The depressed Aprice family sprang back to life once again.

The arrival of their son made both Lester and Rose very happy.

Even before Leonardo was born, Lester and Rose used him as a chess piece and placed him to take over the queen.

They named him Leonardo Petrova instead of Leonardo Aprice and announced that he was Anne’s kid born posthumously.

Leon had left some of his properties to Liliana and Anne directly, and Anne had passed her inheritance to Liliana. To get these assets, Lester and Rose wanted to pass Leonardo off as Anne’s child and stake his claim.

They had never let Liliana know that she had something on her name. At Lester’s birthday party, she had rattled them by saying, ‘My grandfather left me some things.’

Now that Leonardo was finally back, they meant to take back everything.

Lester and Rose were also in a secret competition as each wanted to one-up the other and take away everything.

Lester was recovering well. He had stayed at the hospital and asked the doctor to insist on it.

Rose acted as the worried wife and visited him every day.

On the other hand, Lester pretended to care about Rose’s frequent illness and asked her to stay back at home.

Rose had reluctantly agreed.

Now everyone was home to welcome Leonardo.NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.

Lydia did not like all the attention her half-brother was getting. She knew he would also get all the inheritance, but she did not mind.

She had more than enough shares and bank balance to last a lifetime. Moreover, she would get married to a rich guy and live wonderfully.

She had yet to give up on Jonathan. She was sure of her success because Leonardo would help her now.

Only a fool would reject ties with Smiths.

Leonardo arrived home with the sounds of bass thumping loudly and breaks screeching.

Lester and Rose frowned.

Leonardo had always been unruly. He had dropped out of college. He was into drag racing and was arrested several times for street fights.

He was even worse than Lydia when it came to reckless spending. He changed girlfriends like changing clothes.

Over the years, Rose had almost emptied Anne’s large chest of jewelry so she could spoil him. One specific gold-digger girlfriend of his wanted jewelry made in P city, and she would send it to him behind Lester’s back.

Leonardo thought he was Anne’s son, and Rose was his stepmother. Rose’s only way of getting into his good side was to indulge his every whim.

Moreover, she also had to ensure he hated Liliana. So, she always told him about Liliana’s rotten character and how heartbroken she was because of Liliana’s behavior.

Rose broke out of his thoughts when a tall-lean-bearded man showed up in the living room, whistling and nodding at them.

“Dad, Stepmom, stepsister!” Leonardo said nonchalantly.

He sat on the couch opposite them and placed his feet on the table.

He snapped his fingers and looked over his shoulders to no one in particular, “Get me a drink. Be quick about it!”

Lester finally could not control his anger and snapped, “Leonardo, what is with this attitude?”

Rose, however, took this chance to drive a wedge between them, “Don’t be harsh on him. He has lived abroad all these years. It will take some time to adjust to our customs. Be patient, please!”

Leonardo looked at Rose and mumbled, “Thank you, stepmom.”

Lydia, however, was starry-eyed, “Brother, you rock!”

Leonardo roared in laughter.

Lester shook his head and took deep breaths to control himself. After a while, he said, “how have you been?”

Leonardo replied, “Pretty good.”

Lester waited for Leonardo to ask about him, even if it was out of politeness but was disappointed.

He clenched his fist to control his anger and said, “When do you think you can join the company? You should learn the hoops from me and take over quickly.”

Leonardo frowned and asked, “Where is elder sister Liliana? Why is she not here to welcome me?”

Lester, Rose, and Lydia were speechless.

Leonardo had lived abroad since he was eight and did not understand their family dynamics.
