Sky-Will Studio was freshly minted and buzzing with the energy of new beginnings.

Aurelia had sent someone to the underground market to purchase the items Skyler needed. To deal with Geoffrey, they needed to fight fire with fire. They couldn't always be on the defensive. It was time to take the offensive.

"Hey, Aurelia, when can Leopold leave the hospital?" Skyler asked with a concern that was too heavy for his young shoulders. "He hasn't seen the studio yet." Aurelia whispered back, "He hasn't fully recovered yet. He'll be out, but it'll take a little longer." William was worried. Why wasn't Uncle Leopold discharged if he was okay? Could it be a ruse to throw the enemy off track? "Mommy, can we visit Uncle Leopold in the hospital?" he asked.

Aurelia stroked his hair gently. "Not just yet, sweetheart. We need to wait a little longer." "Okay," William sighed softly.

After checking the time, Aurelia realized she must head to the office. She planned to return in the afternoon to pick up her son.

When she had left, Skyler propped his chin in his hands and sighed.

"Do you think Leopold is okay, William? Why can't we... why can't we visit him?" William fed a leaf to the caterpillar he was raising in a terrarium.

"Uncle Leopold must be recovering from the poison. If it were incurable, Mommy would've taken you to help find an antidote," he reasoned.

Skyler nodded in agreement.

"Maybe the poison had some serious side effects, and that's why Uncle Leopold can't leave the hospital yet," William analyzed with wisdom beyond his years.

Skyler concurred with his theory.

"Geoffrey must be jealous, watching Leopold take me out for vacations every week. He's envious because | have so much fun, so he poisoned Leopold." William crossed his arms and said indignantly, "He's a bad brother. Kane can't go out and play. He has to stay home every day but never gets jealous of me. Geoffrey doesn't see you as a brother. He only wants to control and replace you." "I won't let his schemes win." Skyler led William to his psychedelic mushroom cultivation room.

They were growing hallucinogenic mushrooms from Southeast Asia, intended for crafting a powerful hypnotic drug that was colorless, tasteless, and metabolized quickly from the body, leaving no trace in the bloodstream.

Forced hypnosis always required the aid of such drugs. To hypnotize someone silently without leaving a trace demanded the most sophisticated concoctions.

"Skyler, these mushrooms are so pretty," William observed innocently.

"The prettier the mushroom is, the deadlier it is." "In the woods so deep and wide, Lies a secret none can hide. A red apple, fair and bright, Holds a poison, day and night. Eat the fruit and close your eyes, Sleep forever, under the skies..." William remembered this story.

Skyler joined in the horrifying nursery rhyme, remembering how his Aunt Tanya had sung such chilling nursery rhymes to him and Geoffrey in their childhood.

Kane arrived with news of Thomas.

They had implanted a state-of-the-art GPS tracking chip in Thomas' body and located him in a different city, hiding out in a secret villa.

The villa's owner was Allen, a man sent by the AK Group to take over for Kerry.

According to the confessions of the female assassin, the AK Group's people were poisoned with a toxin dubbed "Grim Reaper," requiring a monthly antidote from the Boss to avoid a gruesome death. That was how Geoffrey had maintained control, ensuring their unwavering loyalty to the AK Group.

But Megan wasn't poisoned. She followed Geoffrey willingly, expecting him to help her achieve her ambitions.

"Keep a close watch on Allen's every move," Aurelia commanded.

"Understood." That evening, Leopold drove to the Blossom Villa.

Disguised, Aurelia soon joined him, blending into the night as seamlessly as a shadow merging with the darkness.
