The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold)
Chapter 543

Chapter 543

Skyler's eyes widened in fear, “Angel, I'm scared. It can't be allowed to eat flowers. Flowers are my good friends."

Aurelia raised her hand to gently pat his head, much like one would comfort a child, "If anyone bullies you, tell your daddy. He will chase the bad people away and protect you.”

Skyler shook his head, "Daddy is busy. He doesn't have time to protect me."

Aurelia broke out into a light sweat.

Indeed, the head of a family was usually the busiest, managing numerous businesses under their banner. The amount of time they could devote to their children was naturally limited.

"What about mommy?"

Skyler lowered his head, "Mommy has a lot of things to do too. She says I'm a big boy now and needed to learn to protect myself, to take care of myself, and not depend on adults.”

Aurelia held her forehead, recalling what Leopold had said about his aunt being a blonde, blue-eyed aristocrat, a member of royalty.

In Veritalia, parents were worried about their children’s lives. Even after they'd grown up, the parents couldn't let go. They fretted over their children's marriages, buying them houses, and helping them raise their children.

Skyler's mother was different. In their hometown, once their children reached adulthood, they didn't live with their parents anymore. They ventured out on their own and their parents didn't interfere with their marriages or families.

Although Skyler wasn't quite mature mentally, as a family, they hoped he could become independent and live on his own

"Why don't you stay in Elysium longer? That way, you won't have to worry about Geoffrey bullying you."

"That sounds good." Skyler nodded vigorously, "Then I can play with you more often. Leah is also in Elysium. I can go to her to play too.”

Leah?

Aurelia was taken aback, subconsciously associating the name with her Leah.

"Who's Leah?"

“She's my little sister. I have two brothers and one sister.” Skyler picked up his iPad from the table and showed her a picture of his family. He pointed at a delicate little girl who looked like an angel, “This is Leah, my little sister”

Aurelia was stunned, a sharp pang of surprise coursing through her.

She initially thought Leah was just a common name, but it turned out to be the same person.

The little girl was a member of the Heninger family, Leopold's cousin.

Wasn't she supposed to be from a rural area, parentless, with only a grandmother to depend on? So she was lying all along?

God, she'd been with Avery for three years and Aurelia hadn't noticed anything unusual.

Aurelia was shaken to her core. The revelation was like a tidal wave.

No wonder she could become a hacker and have so many formidable friends. Her background was so powerful. The little girl had hidden her identity so well.

"Skyler, your sister is very pretty, just like an angel.”

Skyler grinned, "We love Leah the most.”

Aurelia smiled, her gaze returning to his iPad.

"You have so many pictures. Can I see them?"

"Sure." Skyler began introducing every family member to her.

Aurelia spotted a woman who looked similar to Jessica, “Skyler, who is this?"

"That's my aunt, Tanya; Skyler replied.

A feeling of unspeakable depth swept across Aurelia's eyes. So this was Skyler's biological mother. "Do you like her, Skyler?"

Skyler nodded, then shook his head. "She often buys many gifts for me. But she says I'm dumb and is mean to me. She always praises Geoffrey for being smart.”

He lowered his head in sadness.

Aurelia patted his shoulder, "You are not dumb at all. You are very srnart. You're good at taking care of flowers, and I like that about you. I don't like Geoffrey who keeps pests.”
