The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold) novel Chapter 749

Leopold shrugged nonchalantly. "You think you know someone well, but you never really do. Sometimes, even your own flesh and blood can turn against you, let alone a stranger."

Tanya's lips quivered slightly as she replied, "Anyway, the family should be more trustworthy than strangers." She paused, then subtly changed the subject. "I heard the guy who lost his marbles was under hypnosis. It must've been the same person who has hypnotized Thomas."

Pouring her a coffee, Leopold replied, "You mentioned earlier that Geoffrey was only a figment of Skyler's imagination. Do you still stand by that?"

Without hesitation, Tanya asserted firmly, "What I said was true. There's no Geoffrey. Geoffrey is Skyler. Although this incident wasn't Skyler's fantasy, he does suffer from severe delusions."

Leopold's eyes glittered in the dim light, unfathomable and deep.

"Someone, claiming to be Geoffrey, has been texting and threatening Skyler. The attack at the square was his doing."

A muscle twitched in Tanya's face. "That's impossible. Someone with ulterior motives must know about Skyler's condition and is posing as Geoffrey to scare him."

Leopold tapped his long fingers on the armrest of the sofa. "Who do you think it could be?"

Shaking her head, Tanya responded, "I don't know, but I'll find out. Skyler isn't scared, is he?"

"Don't worry. He's stronger than you think." Leopold stirred his coffee. "The werewolf stunt was his idea, too. The person who hypnotized Thomas is likely him. I suspect he's also on this ship. He's extremely dangerous, so be careful."

Tanya's grip on her cup tightened. "I hope you can find him. I can't stand people with hidden agendas, causing trouble and disrupting peace."

Leopold found her statement ironic.

The security team and the police spent the whole night checking every passenger onboard, confirming identities, yet they found no one with a silver allergy. However, the ship was large, making it possible for the culprit to hide away to avoid detection. Or maybe it wasn't him but a henchman from the AK Group.
