The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold)
Chapter 609

Chapter 609

"I think so," Skyler shrugged casually, "At the first time I saw him, he was wearing a mask. He barely speaks. I think his social skills are way worse than... either of us.”

William pouted. "So that's why he keeps those creepy bugs to set them loose and bite people, right?”

"How about we help him turn over a new leaf? Make him one of the good guys?” Kane suggested. “But he's gone into hiding. We can't find him anywhere,” William complained.

Scratching his head, Skyler said, "If he's come to Elysium, he'll get in touch... he'll reach out to me again. I must catch the bastard who stole his bugs and let them bite Aurelia. I'll let hundreds of bugs chew him up and leave him full of holes. He's such a bad, bad man."

"Yeah, a real bad egg!" William nodded vigorously like a pecking hen. He'd stamp the Reaper's Stamp on that guy and let the Grim Reaper take him away.

Meanwhile, Megan stormed into Melissa's room. She was fuming.

"Melissa, can you believe Leopold ranked my child fifth in line? Aside from Kane, he's got three more bastard sons."

Lounging on the sofa with a coffee in hand, Melissa replied, “Isn't that pretty standard for the Stirling family?

Who doesn't have a bastard child or two? Even your dad had one, didn't he? Don't get hung up on such trivial matters. Bear in mind that you should be generous and virtuous."

Upon hearing this, Megan felt completely flustered. Her father's illegitimate child had been dealt with in the womb, and her mother was no pushover. But Katie and Catherine, those two bitches, were damn lucky. Despite Megan's efforts, they were still around. Their baby bumps were big, and they were probably ready to give birth.

"Doesn't Leopold believe in contraception? Does he sleep around and leave his child willy-nilly?" "Would contraception help?" Melissa scoffed. “Those gald-digging women are after his legacy. There's no stopping them.”

"I want to be legitimized the soonest, Melissa. I want my child to be born legitimate, so I don't have to worry about those bastard sons.”

Melissa gave her a pitying look. "The heir of the Stirling family has long been decided. It's Kane, Leopold's legitimate firstborn. No one can challenge that. Your child isn't competing for the title, so being illegitimate doesn't matter much. You'll only have a smaller slice of the family trust, but the treatment isn't bad."

Melissa's words hit Megan like a punch to the gut, leaving her speechless and unsure of how to respond. She was desperate for her son to be the heir of the Stirling family. Or why else would she be so hell-bent on having a boy?

“What if my son turns out better than Kane? Why can't he be the heir?"

Melissa sighed, "The family council has unanimously decided to legitimize you only after Kane turns eighteen.

You can't change that, and your child is destined to be born a bastard. Don't dream of inheritance rights.

Ambition in a woman is taboo in the Stirling family. It's a fatal sin"

A nerve throbbed fiercely on Megan's forehead.

She had come a long way to become the lawful wife, and her son must be the heir of the Stirling family.

She was ambitious, always had been, or else she wouldn't have teamed up with AK Group.

"Even you won't help me, Melissa?"

"lam helping you, Melissa insisted gently. “You're now Leopold's lawful wife. Why bother to get yourself into trouble and fight for a title? Look at Magnolia. She was once the precious darling of the family, but all that endless fighting had got her nowhere. Luckily, my mom is kind-hearted and didn't make things difficult for Arnold. In someone else's shoes, they might hold a grudge and make life hell for your child later on.”

Melissa paused, taking a deep breath. “You need to understand that you're not the first wife and not protected by the family rules. You climbed up from a mistress, and all the other married women in the family have a bone to pick with you. Apart from me, no one else in the Stirling family will stand by your side."
