Chapter 599
Skyler scratched his head in confusion and said, "If I had a chip inside me, the metal detector would have gone off for sure. But it didn't beep when I went through."
Leopold said in a deep voice, "Skyler isn't exactly traveling incognito. Tracking him down wouldn't be too hard."
Tanya couldn't lose track of Skyler’s whereabouts. Hanson wouldn't keep Skyler's secrets from Tanya; after all, she is his biological mother.
After a moment of contemplation, Aurelia whispered, "If Geoffrey and Skyler are spitting images of each other, then he must be using disguises when he steps out."
Skyler stuck out his tongue playfully, replying, "Geoffrey is like a master of disguise, with a whole bunch of those lifelike masks."
Aurelia gasped, "I knew it. That's how he's been able to hide in plain sight for so many years."
Geoffrey's intelligence was nothing short of astonishing, a match for Leopold's own.
Leopold wrapped an arm around Skyler's shoulder "If Geoffrey gets in touch with you again, you gotta let us know right away."
Skyler gave him a puzzled look, "You guys wanna catch him?"
Aurelia thought about it before she answered in a barely audible voice, “Not catch him. Someone stole his venomous critter and bit me. I need to get the antidote from him, or else I'll die."
Skyler shuddered, “Angel, you got bitten by a poisonous critter?"
"Yeah; Aurelia nodded solemnly.
Skyler clenched his fists in anger, “Who would do something so evil, steal Geoffrey's critter? Don't worry, once I see Geoffrey, I'll make sure he gives you the antidote. You can't die. I don't want you to die."
Death was what Skyler feared the most. Because whether it was people or little animals, once they're gone, they're gone forever.
Aurelia soothed him by patting his head like he was a child, "Skyler, how did you use to contact Geoffrey?"
"It was always him contacting me. He'd send emails or texts. But whenever I replied, he never messaged back,"
Skyler explained.
