The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold) novel Chapter 808

His laugh sent shivers down Tanya's spine.

Suddenly, she felt as if the person before her had become a complete stranger, eerie and unrecognizable.

"Skyler, what are you babbling about? I can't make heads or tails of it."

Skyler's smirk was sinister, "Auntie Tanya, every time, you have Geoffrey hypnotize me to erase my memories. But you forgot, I'm just a kid, and kids can't be hypnotized. It's adults who fall under."

A sharp spasm shot through Tanya's heart, and her shoulders trembled involuntarily.

She took a deep breath, fighting to stay calm, "Skyler, do you realize you've been very ill? You couldn't tell reality from illusion. The doctors diagnosed you with dissociative identity disorder. Geoffrey is another personality that emerges when you're unconscious, causing mischief. If it wasn't for me coaxing you to take your medication, he might have taken over by now."

Skyler planted his hands on his hips, puffed out his cheeks, and glared at her fiercely, "You always make me feel like I'm sick. You're gaslighting me."

Tanya was concerned, "Skyler, I would never hurt you. Everything I do is for your well-being. I want you to lead a normal life, have a family, kids of your own."

It seemed Skyler was tuning her out, asking his questions, "Why do you hide Geoffrey? Why don't you let anyone know he exists? What kind of plot are you hatching?"

Tanya's patience was wearing thin, her voice rose despite herself, "There is no Geoffrey, no conspiracy. Don't you ever mention Geoffrey to anyone else, or I'll take you back to Eastwood Heights for proper treatment."

Tanya fumed inwardly. She knew they were doubting her now. What she hadn't anticipated was that it would be her own son Skyler betraying her.

She massaged her temples, her face a mix of helplessness and pain, "All these years, I've been breaking my back over Skyler. And not only does no one appreciate it, but they also paint me as the villain."

Aurelia whispered, "I think you don't need to worry about Skyler. He knows right from wrong and has sound morals. Instead, there are children who live like shadows, who have been indoctrinated with hateful thoughts from a young age, and whose minds are so badly warped that they can lose control at any time. Remember the matricide case that shook the internet? It was the mother's terrifying need to control and psychological manipulation that warped her child's mind, leading to an unforgivable crime. If a mother truly loves her child, she wouldn't, for her own selfish desires, push them down a path of no return."

A nerve on Tanya's face twitched violently.

Aurelia's words were crystal clear to her, peeling back her layers like an onion, revealing the dark, evil core within.
