The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold) novel Chapter 693

Chapter 693

A shadow of unspeakable gloom flitted across Tanya's eyes.

“They see you as a little kid, so they coddle you like one. But I don't treat you as a child. I want you to grow up, stand on your own two feet, to not need Geoffrey, this imaginary big brother, to protect you anymore."

"I don't need Geoffrey. I'm in Elysium now, with Leopold and Angel to protect me. No one can hurt me here. Leopold has arranged so many bodyguards.

I've never been protected like this back in Eastwood Heights."

Tanya glanced at the bodyguard standing by the door.

She didn't feel like he was there to protect Skyler, and it felt more like surveillance, watching over him.

Had he sensed something?

"Skyler, your closeness with Leopold makes me so happy. But remember, in this whole wide world, I'm the one who loves you the most. Everything I do is for you."

Skyler challenged her, "Then why do you always make me take medicine that makes me all woozy? And take me to really scary places, where everyone wears masks like demons."

Tanya sighed, "Sweetie, that's because you're sick, and the medicine is what the doctor prescribed for treatment. There's no scary place, no people in masks, and it's all in your head, your hallucinations."

Skyler pouted, "I know the difference between hallucinations and reality. You can't fool me. If I was really sick, then why do I only get sick when I see you?

I'm fine otherwise"

"Skyler, don't cry, and don't be sad. I believe you. You didn't kill those animals.

It must have been Geoffrey, and Tanya is covering for him by blaming you."

“Thanks, William," Skyler said, head bowed, feeling an acute pain in his heart.

The loss of his pets was a wound that wouldn't heal, and Tanya's accusation was like pouring salt on it.

"Skyler William patted his shoulder, "Tanya must be worried about Geoffrey's secrets getting out, so she’s framing you, calling them your fantasies. Don't worry, and we'll never believe her. We believe you."

Skyler stood up and walked over to the mirror, looking at his reflection as his expression turned serious.
