The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold) novel Chapter 598

Chapter 598

Melissa gently patted her shoulder, “You know, sweetheart, you're the first woman in the Stirling family to ever remarry. Aurelia was the only one who got the boot. In our family, the first wife is always held in the highest regard, and even if she passes on, the husbands don't remarry. They might take a mistress, but that's it.

Remember the ruckus when Chad tried to change that? Nearly got himself kicked to the curb. Those sister-in-laws of yours think you've upset the apple cart, and they're none too pleased about it. If any of your dirty laundry gets aired, you can bet your bottom dollar they'll come after you like a pack of wolves. So keep your nose clean and steer clear of any shady business, okay?"

Megan shivered, a chill running down her spine. Once she had her hands firmly on the reins of the household, the first order of business would be to rewrite the rules, making every single one of them twist to her advantage. Then none of those backstabbers would dare cross her again.

"Melissa, you've been the kindest to me in this whole family, Megan implored, "You have to be on my side."

Melissa offered a half-hearted smile, “Of course, I'm on your side."

As long as she was not mixed up with any of those criminal organizations.

She wasn't a fool, and she didn't want to be tarred with the same brush and cast out.

Aurelia had confided that Leopold cut her off financially because she was too chummy with Megan, and he feared she'd spoil his plans.

Just then, William burst out of Skyler's tent, his face etched with urgency, searching for Aurelia.

“Mom, it's bad news. Skyler received a message from Geoffrey."

"What?" Aurelia gasped, her heart skipping a beat. She quickly summoned Leopold, and they rushed to Skyler's tent.

There it was, a cryptic anonymous message on his smartwatch, (Skyler, I have arrived.]

"It's all going to hell in a handbasket,’ Skyler muttered, pacing the tent like a cat on a hot tin roof, clearly dreading Geoffrey's arrival.

Leopold wrapped an arm around him, “Don't worry. I've got your back."

Hanson had already returned to Eastwood Heights, leaving Skyler alone in the hotel.
