The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold) novel Chapter 628

Chapter 628

"Skyler, when you go to the movie studio to visit tomorrow, if you see Leah, you have to pretend you dont recognize her."

Skyler was so curious, tilting his head at the strange request from Aurelia. "Leah's going to be there?” he asked, a puzzled look painting his youthful face.

Aurelia leaned in closer, lowering her voice to a whisper, "Leah's working as Avery's assistant, but Avery doesn't have a clue she's your sister. It's Leah's secret, and we've got to keep it under wraps for her, okay?"

Skyler pressed a finger against his lips, his eyes wide with the solemnity of the promise, "Mum's the word, I swear, he boasted, puffing up with pride at his own trustworthiness.

Aurelia couldn't help but smile, her thumb shooting up in approval, "You're the best, Skyler."

She trusted Skyler, with his eight-year-old mind that seemed so much wiser and more mature than his peers, to keep Leah's secret safe.

After a while playing in the villa, Skyler returned to his own place.

His smartwatch buzzed with a cryptic message that made his cheeks puff out in annoyance as he read it.

(Skyler, you've been a bit of naughty lately, you know, I won't be pleased about that.] With a huff, he typed back fiercely, [I'm good, and everybody loves me. You are the naughty one, and I will not play with you anymore.] He wasn't going back to Eastwood Heights. He was staying here with Aurelia and William.

He pulled out a golden lollipop Aurelia had given him, and its shiny wrapper glinting under the room's lights, Skyler beamed with joy. He adored that lollipop, treasuring it as if it were a piece of the sun itself.

Aurelia and William were the kindest souls in the world to him.

Meanwhile, across town in Elysium, Megan received chilling news that the hitman had been captured, now reduced to a vegetative state after an inexplicable accident.

A shiver crawled up her spine as she deduced that Aurelia must have secretly enlisted a powerful shaman, capable of hexing even a hired killer. But she couldn't squeal to Leopold without exposing herself. She needed to act first.

Aurelia picked up Skyler and they set off for the movie studio.

Skyler was buzzing with excitement the entire ride. Making movies had to be a blast.
