The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold) novel Chapter 809

“I know you’re talking about Geoffrey, Skyler’s split personality, but he ain’t my kid, and I’ve got no clue why Skyler would split off such a nasty alter ego. Maybe I’ve been too hard on Skyler?”

It was as clear as daylight to Aurelia; Tanya was dead set on the idea that Skyler had a split personality, and Geoffrey was just the sinister side of it.

She wasn’t in the mood for pointless debates.

“Anyway, you mentioned that the guy impersonating Geoffrey was caught. That’s right, he’s been handed over to the cops. After the grilling, he confessed he was just the fall guy. I’m kinda curious, though, who pulled his strings, and what’s their endgame?”

Tanya’s lips twitched into a tight smile, but she kept her cool.

“God knows who’s got it in for Leopold, trying to take him down over and over.” Tanya said.

Aurelia snorted with scorn, “It’s all about clawing the way to the head of the Stirling family. But what’s the point? Schemes always unravel, and when they do, you’re just left with everyone’s backs turned to you, loathed and despised. No one’s gonna envy or respect you then.”

She paused and showed her expression one of contempt, “Let’s face it, and this whole mess reeks of Megan’s handiwork. She’s desperate to secure her seat as the Stirling family matriarch, to see her kid inherit the whole Stirling Group. Leopold wants a divorce, and she’s like a cornered animal. Ambitious to a fault, but in the end, those who play dirty often end up shooting themselves in the foot.

Do you know what I think? The most foolish and laughable spectacle is women tearing each other apart over a man. To the men of the Stirling family, women are just playthings, and they’ll never truly give their hearts to one.”

Take Chad, the patriarch. He had a list of conquests too long to count. Even when Magnolia was the apple of his eye, he didn’t give up his philandering ways, always sneaking around with other women. He was a stud horse. If it weren’t for his weak kidneys and low sperm count, who knows how many more kids he would have sired?
