The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold)
Chapter 922

A shadow, deep and indescribable, flickered in Kane's eyes.

If that was the case, Rocky must have gotten sick the day before, not over the weekend.

"Hey, Skyler, wanna hang out at our place?" "Sure," Skyler nodded.

William emerged from the bathroom, and they headed to the apartment.

Once inside, Kane shut the door and whispered, "I think Rocky picked up the superbug at school yesterday." William blinked in surprise. "That can't be right. If there was superbug at school, why would he be the only one sick?" "Could be a targeted thing," Kane mused. "Remember when he had my clam chowder yesterday?" William gasped. "You think the clam chowder had poison? But wasn't it Ramona who brought it over? Are you saying she wanted to poison you?" Skyler interjected, "Con, what could a kid like her know about any superbug?" Kane laid out his theory. "Haven't we been confused about why the kidnappers snatched her parents instead of taking her to extort them? They were likely after me, turning Ramona into a mole, waiting for the right moment to strike." William found Kane's analysis chillingly plausible. Kane always had a knack for cutting through to the heart of a matter.

"Let's confront Ramona now." "First, let's check the surveillance footage," suggested Kane.

They went to the girls’ dorm first, asking the resident advisor. Indeed, Ramona had received a package from hthe week before.

Kane suspected it contained the poison sent by the kidnappers.

Next, they visited the security office to review the cafeteria footage.

Nothing unusual was in the video. Ramona had just walked over with the clam chowder, not slipping anything into it.

However, with his eagle eyes, Kane paused and zoomed in on the footage, spotting Ramona's thumb dipping into the clam chowder ever so slightly.

"See here? If she had poison on her finger, it would have dissolved into the clam chowder when she touched it." William was livid. "She must have cozied up to us on purpose, pretending to be our friend while we trusted her." "This has got to be the work of the AK Group. They're known for such dirty tricks." Skyler clenched his fists. "Looks like it's tfor SkyWill to make a move." Their last class of the day was biology.

After class, as the students filtered out, Skyler kept William, Kane, and Ramona back.

With anxiety and defiance, Ramona asked, "Mr. Heninger, do you need us to clean the lab?" Skyler glanced at William, who closed the lab's doors and drew the curtains.

"Ramona, your parents didn't return home. They got kidnapped, right?" A sharp pang shot through Ramona's heart. She stammered, "I... I don't understand what you mean. I need to go back to my dorm." "My dad and Mr. Victor are looking for them. My dad had customs checked. There's no record of them leaving," William said earnestly. "Did the kidnappers make you poison Kane? The package you got on Thursday had the superbug, right?" Ramona's face paled slightly. She thought she had covered it well and was surprised they had caught her quickly.

"Aren't we friends? Why would you accuse me?" "We're not friends anymore. If we report it to the school, you could get expelled," William stated with conviction.

Tears welled up in Ramona's eyes. She couldn't afford to get expelled. Otherwise, she couldn't save her parents.
