The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold) novel Chapter 558

Chapter 558

"It's so bizarre," Leah said, scratching her head. "The man’s family said he was not a psychopath, and they insisted there was no history of mental illness in their tree."

"Maybe they weren't paying attention’ Aurelia suggested as they sat on a bench beneath the sprawling branches of an old oak tree. “Some mental issues are like ticking time bombs, lying dormant until something triggers a big bang. For all we know, the couple could have had a blowout on that suspension bridge. You know, both of ther were not nice people."

Aurelia recounted how they'd mocked Skyler at the diner, and Leah's blood boiled, wondering how they had the nerve to mess with her big brother! She had felt a twinge of pity for the family before, but now? It seemed like poetic justice.

"The way you put it, they're all off-kilter. A house built on a crooked foundation deserves to crumble."

Leah leaned in, eager to share a secret. "But you gotta keep it under wraps, okay?"

“Mum's the word,’ Leah assured her, zipping her lips with her fingers.

“Your brother mentioned he has another brother named Geoffrey, a spitting image of him. I'm starting to doubt if he has a long-lost twin."

Leah was shocked. She'd heard about Geoffrey from her cousin Leopold, and despite digging for Geoffrey's information, she'd come up empty.

“Leopold told me about Geoffrey. Are you saying Geoffrey is Skyler's twin? How come I've never heard anything about Skyler having a twin?"
