The CEO's Unplanned Heir novel Chapter 942

After lunch, Aurelia dropped Ramona off at the dormitory, even buying her apples and oranges on the way back.

The warmth of her gesture wrapped the young girl's heart in a comforting blanket, making her feel she was no longer fighting a lone battle.

As Ramona disappeared into the building, Aurelia turned to leave when a voice called out from behind, "Aurelia! Wait up!"

She spun around to see a pretty girl in a cleaner's uniform jogging towards her with a broom and dustpan.

"Sierra? What are you doing here?"

"I just landed a job with the campus maintenance crew," Sierra said with a beaming smile.

Aurelia was shocked, suspecting that Tanya had arranged this to keep a closer watch on Skyler. After all, the school wasn't too picky about their cleaning staff, and it was easy for her to get the position.

"I heard from Skyler yesterday that you snagged a new gig, but I had no idea it was here!"

"Yep," Sierra nodded, a twinkle in her eye. "I wanted to be closer to Mister Skyler."

"Have you seen him today?" Aurelia inquired.

"Not yet," Sierra shook her head and said, "but I'm here every day. It's only a matter of time."

Aurelia patted her shoulder encouragingly. "Work hard, and good luck."

Later that afternoon, Skyler, Kane and William headed to the school.

Upon entering the teacher's lounge, Skyler's gaze immediately found a familiar figure swapping out the trash bags. His heart skipped a beat, wondering if his eyes were playing tricks on him.

When the girl turned and caught sight of him, her smile blossomed. "Mister Skyler!"

Skyler, breaking into a sweat, gestured for her to keep quiet. "Shh! I'm Mr. Heninger here."

"Oops." Sierra stuck out her tongue playfully. "Got it, Mr. Heninger."

Skyler groaned internally, "You told me you had a new job, but I didn't realize it was at our school."

"That's right. I'm part of the maintenance team now. I ran into Aurelia earlier," Sierra chirped.

"Why did you come to my... our school?" Skyler stuttered, thrown off by her sudden appearance.
