The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold) novel Chapter 1166

Skyler returned and plopped down beside her. She poured him a glass of chilled lemonade.

"Did you visit Raines at the hospital?" Aurelia asked.

"Yep." Skyler nodded, lifting the glass to his lips and taking a generous gulp. It tasted heavenly.

"He's dead set on blaming me for the poison and tried to trick me into giving him an antidote. As if I'd fall for that."

Aurelia let out a mocking laugh, "He seems to know you pretty well for someone who's spent so much time abroad. That's not normal."

Skyler said, "Because he's not the real Raines. It might even be Geoffrey. Remember when I said I was better looking than Geoffrey, that really got under his skin. Classic Geoffrey, always quick to anger, lashing out at me."

Aurelia chuckled, "If it is Geoffrey, then we've got him right where we want him."

Geoffrey was a spider trapped in its own web.

Skyler carefully rolled up his sleeves and picked up a tangerine, peeling and eating it with relish.

He was wearing new cufflinks today, a Christmas gift custom-made by Angel. They were stunning, and Skyler adored them.

"We've pinned the blame on Geoffrey and he must be livid, about to explode with rage."

Aurelia snorted, "It's like fighting fire with fire. He's always scheming, plotting to poison someone. Doesn't he deserve a taste of his medicine?"

If it weren't for her luck, she'd have died a hundred times over.

Skyler said, "Angel, you're right. Geoffrey deserves a lesson for having no respect for life. It's Tanya's doing. She spoiled him rotten and never let him experience real love or affection. No wonder he's incapable of anything but harm."

Aurelia bit into an apple.

With Tanya, there was no love or affection, only ambition and desire. How could she raise a child right?

To her, Geoffrey and Skyler were just pawns in her game of revenge.

How ironic! Tanya was so lovesick, willing to turn against her sister and her family for a man.
