The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold)
Chapter 562

Chapter 562

Skyler was itching to hit the toy store for some new gear. So after knocking off for the day, Aurelia and Leopold decided to take him to Toyland.

Leopold whispered orders to his bodyguard to stay sharp, watching out for any tail because you never know who might be creeping around.

Toyland was Skyler's playground, where his eyes danced from one shiny thing to another.

Aurelia once heard from Leah that Skyler's heart was at age eight despite his towering frame and a collection of four PhDs. Inside the man was a little boy who just never grew up.

They found their way to the LEGO building block zone, where several kids were stacking bricks like there was no tomorrow.

Skyler plopped beside them, getting his hands on the pieces and joining the fun.

It was when Leah showed up with little William in tow.

She had a free afternoon and thought it'd be great to join Aurelia and Skyler at Toyland, with William tagging along for the ride.

Aurelia wasnt thrilled about her son being there. With the AK Group possibly lurking in the shadows, she knew the AK Group people were malicious. She feared for her son's safety. But what's done was done, and turning them away wasn't an option.

“William, this is Skyler,” she introduced.

William glanced at Skyler, his face twisting into an odd expression, "Mommy, did you come to Toyland to hang out with Skyler?”

Aurelia nodded.

Skyler looked up at William, "You're Aurelia's kid, right? That makes you little... angel.”

William cracked a smile. “Yup, I'm a little angel. I'm William. Nice to meet you."

"Why the mask?" Skyler asked with curiosity.

Aurelia chuckled. “William gets spooked around strangers. The mask gives him a sense of security, like how

you love your lollipops when you're scared.”

"Oh," Skyler scratched his head, a spark igniting in his eyes. "So, William is just like me. We gotta be best

buddies.”

“Sure thing. We'll be friends from now on,” William agreed effortlessly. He could tell Skyler was different from

other grown-ups.

As a sociable character, William cozied up next to Skyler. “How about we build some blocks together?"

"Sure, Skyler nodded eagerly.

"Got any brothers or sisters, William?"

"Yes, I have an older brother. I'll bring him next time to hang with us.”

"I've got siblings and an older brother too,” Skyler said earnestly, “but I can't let him come play because he keeps

a lot of bad... bad bugs that bite."

"Why does your brother keep bad bugs?" asked William, intrigued.

"They're for biting the baddies, but bugs don't know good guys from bad. They... they bite anyone’ Skyler

explained.

"Ain't your brother scared of getting bitten?" William probed.

"He's got bug spray to keep “em off," Skyler revealed.

William's eyes spun. "I hate mosquitoes most. They always give me big itchy bumps. I wish all the bad Mosquitoes would vanish. But my teacher says mosquitoes are also important. If they were gone, many cute critters would vanish, like frogs, dragonflies, and geckos. They eat mosquitoes Without mosquitoes, they'll starve”

Skyler scratched his head, "So, should we smack down the bad mosquitoes when we see 'em?* “Absolutely,” William nodded. "We'll leave just enough for the frogs and their pals, but the rest are toast."

"Deal" Skyler agreed, liking the sound of that plan.

The three adults settled on a nearby bench.

Watching the two "kids" strike up a friendship.

It turned out that kids and kid-at-hearts spoke the same language.

Before long, the two brains buzzed with smart genes crafted a mighty ship out of the colorful blocks.
