The CEO's Unplanned Heir novel Chapter 305

"How should I know? She was with you…" Marcia caught herself mid-sentence, realizing she'd said too much, but it was too late.

A piercing glaze flashed across Arnold's eyes, "Auntie, you've just given yourself away!"

Marcia struggled to maintain her composure, lifting her cup to take a sip of her coffee, "Arnold, everything I've done is for you."

Before she could finish her sentence, Arnold drew his gun from his belt, aiming it at her head, "Tell me again, where is Aurelia?"

A shudder of disbelief rippled through Marcia as she stared at him, "I'm your aunt, Arnold! I've doted on you since you were a child, and now you're pointing a gun at me over a woman! After everything I've done for you, this is how you treat me. You've truly chilled my heart!"

Arnold grunted, "Are you really doing this for me? Even if Leopold were to die, the leadership of the Stirling family would never fall onto me. I'd just become the scapegoat, just like I was three years ago! You must have accomplices, don't you? Who's your boss? Which of my brothers?"

There was no way she could pull this off on her own!

Marcia stood up, her gaze unwavering, "When your mother died, I was there. I swore to her that I would ensure you replace Leopold as the head of the Stirling family. Everything I've done these many years was for you, and you still doubt me?"

Arnold remained unmoved, his expression hardened, "Well, I'm telling you now, I'm no longer interested in being the head. I just want Aurelia. Either you tell me where Aurelia is, or I'm handing you over to Leopold!"

Marcia took a deep breath, utterly shocked by this unexpected turn of events.

"She... she's on an isolated island, twenty kilometers south of Proso Island."

"I’ll tell Leopold everything if I can't find her!" With those chilling words, he quickly left.

Upon reaching the island, he soon spotted a cabin. He kicked the door open.

Inside, a woman was nursing a baby.

Arnold had seen pictures of Kane. This child looked a lot like him. It must be Liam!

He swiftly snatched the child from the woman's arms, pointing his gun at her, "Tell me, where is the woman you kidnapped?"

The woman raised her hands, trembling, "She was taken away!"

"To where?"

"I don't know. They didn't say anything. They just left me here to look after the baby."
