Chapter 675 William's voice dripped with innocence as he declared, "But we all like Skyler, not Geoffrey" Skyler's face split into a joyous grin.

After all, his mind was that of an eight-year-old, and he was like a big kid.

He had been yearning for love and attention. Only here could he feel loved and cared for.

"Angel," he chimed eagerly, "I wanna head to the flower market later and get sseeds to plant in the yard" "Of course,” Aurelia replied with a smile.

On Friday, Leopold took Skyler to Magnolia Heights, the Stirling family's summer retreat. Their friends and relatives were warmly received there when they visited from afar.

Sheryl, the head of the household, had arranged a spread of sweets and treats. These days, she was the one managing the day- to-day affairs of the Stirling Mansion.

Tanya arrived in the afternoon, bringing only her personal assistant, Sierra, to Magnolia Heights.

Leopold took a discreet look at her. Her features bore a touch of pallor and thinness, hinting at a frail health.

Upon seeing Jessica, her eyes brimmed with tears.

"Oh, Jessica, my dear sister, it's been too long. | sometimes wonder if this might be the last twe see each other." Jessica clasped her hand. "Don't be so pessimistic. You'll get better. Hanson toldhe's found the best doctor from Goldstone for you, and the treatments are working wonders." "I do feel a tad better, or | wouldn't have managed to cto Elysium,’ Tanya whispered.

She seemed far from the formidable presence of rumors, exuding a gentle demeanor instead.

Jessica instructed the servant to bring Tanya chicken soup, which was nourishing and comforting.

"When you're a bit stronger, you should rest at home. I'll take Skyler to visit you at Eastwood Heights later." Skyler, upon seeing his aunt, nervously unwrapped a lollipop and sucked on it with vigor.

He always turned to lollipops when he got anxious.

Tanya glanced at him. "Still the timid boy. Did he cause you any trouble, Jessica?" "He's been good. Leopold's been keeping him entertained. No worries," Jessica reassured with a smile.

Tanya's gaze shifted to Leopold. "Last t| saw Leopold, he was just a kid, and now look at him. He's all grown up. Knowing he gets along so well with Skyler puts my mind at ease.” Skyler piped up hastily, “I... | have lots of fun with Leopold. He... he takeson vacations every week... | like playing with... with him. | wanna stay... stay in Elysium forever, not... not return to Eastwood Heights.” His nervousness made his stutter more pronounced.

Leopold wrapped an arm around his shoulders. "From now on, the Stirling family is your second home." Tanya let out a heavy sigh. “! wish | could see you grow up, get married, and have kids. But it seems you'll never grow up." Skyler shook his head vehemently. "I don't... don't wanna grow up. Growing up is not... not fun.

The adult world was too complicated, and he had no desire to be part of it.

Jessica raised her hand, tenderly stroking his hair.

"Look how carefree and happy he is now. For a child born into wealth, it isn't bad for him to stop growing up. Happiness is what matters most. Children from poorer families must grow up fast to take on responsibilities” Tanya dabbed the tears from the corner of her eye. "I wish he were a normal kid so | wouldn't have to worry about who'll look after him when I'm gone. His siblings are all grown, and they'll have their own families. Skyler is always alone without a companion.” "You're underestimating the boy,” Jessica countered. “He's stronger than you think. He can live well all by himself. Besides, he's not alone. He has a whole family of relatives. How could we ever neglect him?”
