The CEO's Unplanned Heir novel Chapter 625

William, with red-rimmed eyes brimming with tears, brought Skyler, to visit Aurelia, who lay still in the hospital bed.

"Skyler, when will Mommy wake up? I don't want her to keep sleeping like this." William said, shedding tears.

Skyler sobbed, his fists balling up with frustration. He paced back and forth, scratching his head in anxious thought.

"Come on, Angel, you gotta wake up," he whispered, his voice barely a plea.

Suddenly, Skyler's eyes lit up with realization, "I know what happened. It's the Lost Scent. She must have been poisoned with the Lost Scent."

Leopold rushed over and grabbed his shoulder, "What's this Lost Scent?"

Skyler explained, "It's made with belladonna and some other stuff like anesthetics. I was poisoned once, and Geoffrey saved me."

Leopold was suspicious. That cursed concoction could very well be Geoffrey's handiwork. Skyler had accidentally inhaled it and been poisoned.

"Do you know the antidote?" asked Leopold, urgency lacing his voice.

Skyler nodded confidently. "Yeah, I do."

Leopold's eyes gleamed with hope as he quickly ushered Skyler to the Stirling Group's biotech research facility.

Meanwhile, lost in her dreams, Aurelia had no sense of time. Her body felt increasingly weak and exhausted, but she refused to give in. There had to be a way out.

Suddenly, her surroundings shifted. The long hallway vanished, replaced by a lush green meadow. Two identical doors stood not far away, one of life and one of death.

Confusion settled upon her until a faint voice, Leopold's voice, echoed from the left door. Without hesitation, Aurelia rushed forward and pushed it open. Blinded by a brilliant white light, she lost consciousness, only to awaken later in the hospital room.
