The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold) novel Chapter 1010

Nina stood with her hands on her hips, a look of exasperation in her eyes. "You are indeed a little goofball, aren't you?"

Mira stuck out her tongue, making a goofy face. "I like being a goofball."

With a swift smack to her forehead, Nina retorted, "Then you might as well change your name from Mira to Goofy."

Nodding her head rapidly like a pecking chick, Mira agreed, "Okay, from now on, I'll be Goofy. It has a nice ring to it."

William chuckled behind his hand. Was this what they called fighting fire with fire?

"It's alright, Nina," he interrupted, "let Mira be her sweet simple self. We Stirling family have more than enough cash but need joy."

"Yeah, happiness counts most," Skyler nodded and added.

Grinning ear to ear, Mira said, "Kane promised he'd take care of me when I grow up. He'll even increase my allowance from the family foundation. I am his favorite sister, after all."

Nina shook her head, the image of exasperation personified. "Ah, I get it. You want to be a freeloader."

Mira playfully stuck out her tongue. "Yep, I love being a freeloader."

Nina pouted.

Mira was such a tease, always playing around with her.

Beverley arrived a bit later than the others.

Fredric gathered his brothers and led them to the card room for a round of bridge.

Meanwhile, Sheryl gathered Aurelia, Lisbeth, and Beverley to watch her latest film in the screening room.
