Chapter 619 Skyler hugged his arms and shivered, "Sleepwalking is no joke. She can do anything when she's sleepwalking. | heard about a guy who shot his wife while he was sleepwalking.” Melissa shuddered at the thought. No more sleepovers at Megan's place for her. The idea of wandering around at night, mistaking her head for a watermelon, and going all Lizzie Borden on them was downright terrifying.

Aurelia stroked her chin thoughtfully. If AK Group really had some top-notch hypnotist who could manipulate people in their sleep, why bother with messy biological weapons? Just make the enemy off themselves, easy peasy. And they would definitely try to use it against Leopold. Yet, they hadn't gone that route.

Could it be they'd all been misled by Megan? She definitely had sleepwalking issues. Maybe she was afraid Leopold would find it unattractive and was deflecting the blame, claiming she was framed with some kind of curse.

As she pondered, Leopold walked in.

Aurelia's mouth quirked into a half-smile, “She just barged in here, accusing me of putting a hex on her: Leopold frowned, “Don't mind her." Aurelia pouted slightly. "You should get her checked out by a shrink. It's likely she really is sleepwalking. Maybe she's just scared you'll dump her and is making up the whole being framed story" Leopold sat down at the breakfast table, deep in thought, "I'll take her to see a psychologist this afternoon.” “The sooner you find out, the better, Melissa chimed in, still shocked by the revelation. Megan might end up sleeping alone from now on.

William grabbed his iPad and looked up some facts, adopting a tremulous voice to set a spooky scene, "There was this one case where a guy sleep-drove for miles and beat someone to death. Lots of sleepwalkers get violent. Uncle Leo, you should watch your back." Skyler immediately wrapped his arms around himself, shivering, "It freaks me out. | don't want to be near anyone who sleepwalks." Leopold reached over and ruffled William's hair, "William, don't worry about adult stuff. Just eat your breakfast." "Uncle Leo, it's you I'm worried about. You're my uncle, after all." William spoke through bites of his sandwich, his words muffled.

Leopold's lips twitched into a smile as he said, "Don't worry. Even the Grim Reaper wouldn't dare take me." Aurelia smiled faintly, “I do hope you live along life." After breakfast, they headed back to the marina and drove off to Elysium.

Leopold took Megan to the hospital to see the psychologist.

After the consultation, the doctor confirmed she was suffering from sleepwalking. Being pregnant, she couldn't take medication and would have to rely on therapy.

Megan was in denial.

"I don't have sleepwalking issues. How could I? It's Aurelia's doing. She's set me up, made you all think I'm sleepwalking." Leopold said coldly, "Enough. You're bordering on needing psychiatric care. The doctor's diagnosis is accurate.

You need to cooperate with the treatment. Otherwise, I'll have to admit you." Megan turned pale. She suspected even the doctor was in Aurelia’s pocket, hence the sleepwalking diagnosis.

She'd underestimated Aurelia, who had apparently laid out such a meticulous trap.

"Honey, you have to believe me. It was all Aurelia’ she pleaded.

"You're really sick," Leopold said, leaving the room.

He had to run his company, leaving a bodyguard to escort Megan home.

In his office, Kevin reported in.

“I've checked all the island's security cameras, and there's nothing out of the ordinary. Megan didn't interact with anyone but the hotel staff, and they're all accounted for. No unidentified individuals.” Leopold tapped his fingers on the desk, mulling it over.

If Megan really was sleepwalking, how did that explain all the strange incidents leading up to this point?
