The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold)
Chapter 1153

William quipped with a smirk, "Geoffrey must be so insecure about his looks that he can't face the world without his mask." Kane nodded sagely. "The face is the index of the heart. A vile person is bound to be hideous on the outside too." Raines narrowed his eyes, the deep brown pupils taking on an ominous cast, as if shrouded in shadows.

"You lot are a bunch of naive kids. It sounds like none of you have ever laid eyes on him. You don't even know if he's ugly or handsome." "No good-looking guy would ever hide behind a mask," declared Skyler with utmost seriousness. "Takefor instance. I never wear a mask. Why would I deprive the world of this pinnacle of handsomeness?" William shook his head and sighed. "Ah, it's so tragic. You two are brothers, and you're drop-dead gorgeous, while he's just... not.

He must be green with envy, dreaming of being as handsas you." Skyler stroked his cheek. "How did I end up so dashing? I'm the guy people love at first sight. Poor Geoffrey has got it rough, ugly and friendless." "You've never considered Geoffrey your brother, have you?" Raines' voice was eerily calm like the deep-sea currents before a tsunami.

"Of course, I have," Skyler retorted earnestly. "I've always treated him like a brother, but he never reciprocates. He's too busy hurting us, clawing for power and influence. As my dad always says, 'Family should stick together and face the world united.’ The ones who stir trouble at hare the worst kind of useless." Raines curled his lips into a faint smile. "Such a good boy, always listening to your daddy." "Because what dad says is always right," Skyler affirmed.

"Is Geoffrey your dad's son too?" Raines threw out the question suddenly.

"lI don't know," Skyler dodged, shaking his head. "Geoffrey claims he's my identical twin and that we look exactly alike. But we've never done a DNA test. Who knows if he's my brother?" William, shaking his head, interjected, "Skyler, don't believe Geoffrey. How can you trust someone who's too scared to show you his face? If he's your identical twin, he should look just like you. Why else would he need a mask? He must be hiding something" "It is weird," Skyler agreed, rubbing his clean-shaven chin, always meticulous about his grooming.

William seemed to have a sudden thought. "Maybe one of his pet venomous creatures bit him, and he got disfigured. That's why he hides behind a mask." "Anyway, wearing a mask definitely means he's got something to hide, probably his ugliness," piped up Mira in her childlike voice.

A flicker of dark intent briefly crossed Raines' face, but he swiftly replaced it with a smile as others walked in.

"Playing with these kids is quite the entertainment." "There's nothing like having kids around to liven up the place. It was just the swhen we were little," Fredric said with a gentle smile.

Beverley muttered from behind him, "We're just short on sisters-in-law. You and Arnold are divorced. Now Aurelia is the only one left." At this, Nina drooped her head. "I miss Mom," she whispered.
