The CEO's Unplanned Heir novel Chapter 552

One morning, Skyler called up Aurelia, buzzing with the idea of spending the day out and about.

Given his love for flowers, Aurelia decided to take him to the botanical gardens.

Skyler was overjoyed, "Angel, you're just awesome, agreeing to hang out with me. Dad's always so swamped, never has time to take me places."

Aurelia chuckled, "Anytime you wanna have some fun, just let me know. I'll show you every nook and cranny of Elysium."

"Deal." Skyler clapped his hands in delight.

Stepping out of the car, he darted towards the gardens like a lively sparrow, instantly becoming the center of attention. Skyler, tall and dashing yet with an air of childlike innocence, shrank back when he felt the stares, seeking refuge behind Aurelia.

Knowing his nerves could be calmed with a lollipop, Aurelia fished one out and handed it to him, "Don't fret, Skyler. Keep your eyes on me and pretend no one else is around. Just do your thing."

"Okay." He nodded, unwrapping the candy and popping it into his mouth.

Spring had the flowers in a riot of color, with wildflowers dotting the path.

Skyler, curious about their names, scanned them with his smartwatch.

"Angel, this one's called devil's needle. What a quirky name."

"A lot of wildflowers and herbs are medicinal. Devil's needle is good for blood circulation and regulating blood pressure," Aurelia explained with a smile.

"Geoffrey also grows lots of herbs and uses them to feed bugs."

Skyler's offhand remark piqued Aurelia's interest considerably.

She was now nearly certain that Geoffrey was the kingpin of AK Group, the one cultivating those toxins and bacteria.

"Skyler, did you know I have a special talent? I can sketch anything you describe."

"Wow, Angel, that's so cool." Skyler gasped in awe.

Aurelia's eyes twinkled with mischief, "Wanna give it a shot?"
