The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold)
Chapter 940

“How's the search for Ramona’s parents going?” She deftly changed the subject. Even though Ramona had resorted to poison, she couldn't bring herself to blher. No matter how sharp-witted she was, she was still a kid who had desperately tried to cope with her parents’ abduction.

Leopold's gaze grew distant and dark. “They're still in the country, but not in Elysium anymore. We don't know where the kidnappers have taken them. My people are on it.” “They got involved in this mess because of us. We must get them out,” Aurelia said firmly.

Leopold gave a slight nod. “The kidnappers are from Verdecalma. It seems like the local Elysium crowd is clueless about this.” “Your aunt Tanya must know something.” Aurelia’s amber eyes twinkled with cunning.

After leaving the room, she carried sfruit into Kane's room.

Skyler and the kids were engrossed in a gof robot wars.

“Transform, Superman model!” “Charge, Zeo No.5!" Aurelia placed the fruit platter on the table. “Tout, my loves. Let's have sfruits.” “Okay!” The kids set down their robots.

Skyler picked up a piece of durian and began to eat. He relished the taste of the exotic fruit.

After finishing the durian, he moved on to mangos, which he thought was a perfect pairing.

Aurelia glanced at her two sons. “You guys aren't holding the poisoning against Ramona, are you?” William and Kane exchanged a glance and whispered, “Mommy, we're not friends with her anymore.” Aurelia wrapped an arm around each of her sons’ shoulders. “In all of this, Ramona is a victim, too. It isn’t her fault. It's the kidnappers’ fault.” “We know,” Kane said. “That's why we don't blher, and we've forgiven her. But we can’t be close friends with her anymore.” “Why not?” Aurelia asked, puzzled.

William spoke solemnly, “Because true friends never do anything to hurt each other, whatever the reason. If Ramona had told us the truth, we would have helped her. But she didn’t. She chose to poison Kane. If it hadn't been for Rocky’s moment of greed, taking Kane's clam chowder, it would have been Kane in the hospital.” “And maybe she has never considered us friends, just got close to us for her reasons,” Kane added.

Skyler clicked his tongue. “I never imagined Ramona to be such a calculating girl.” They had a point, and Aurelia found herself at a loss for words.

“The lesson here is to be cautious with new friends. Don’t trust them easily. After all, familiarity does not always mean understanding.” “We get it.” The older and the younger nodded in unison. “Don’t harbor malice, but don’t eschew caution.” Aurelia ate a mango, then sighed softly. “But I still believe Ramona is a good kid at heart. She was just scared. It's sad, really. So young and alone in a foreign country, facing such horror. She probably grew up coddled by her parents, and this is her first brush with real terror.” The more she thought about it, the more she pitied Ramona. She resolved to visit her the next day.

“Kane, William, you mustn't isolate Ramona at school. Everyone makes mistakes. If she’s willing to be a genuine friend and not hurt you again, you should give her a chance.” “Don’t worry, Mommy. We know how to handle it,” Kane assured her. “But she should also apologize to Rocky. He's the real victim here. Rocky's dad probably thinks it’s ssuperbug he brought from overseas. He must feel guilty. But if the truth comes out, she'll get expelled.” Aurelia stroked her son's hair. “Let's focus on getting Ramona’s parents back first.”
