After polishing off the last bit of his chocolate cake, Skyler looked up at Aurelia and said with accomplishment, "I finally nailed the antidote for Shadow Venom. | passed it on to Kevin." "Way to go, Skyler!" cheered Aurelia, giving him a thumbs-up. "You know, there's another thing you've got over Geoffrey. You're probably in better shape than he is because you're not picky with food." Grinning from ear to ear, Skyler replied. "Aurelia, you hit the nail on the head. Geoffrey is skinnier than... than me, and he's so picky with food, always turning his nose up at this and that." Aurelia chuckled. "A strong body is the key to winning any battle, after all." Making a goofy face, Skyler added, "And Geoffrey... he's such a freeze baby. Even in summer, he's all about long sleeves and pants, wrapped up like a mummy." "Oh?" Aurelia pondered, considering this could be a sign of a severe allergy, which might explain why he seemed to react even to silverware.

"He doesn't need regular blood transfusions, does he?" Thinking it over, Skyler said, "I've never seen him go for transfusions, but he's got this... secret room. He disappeared into it for ages and... only came out after a long time. No clue what he has been up to in there." Aurelia guessed it might be a covert blood transfusion routine.

"What's your blood type, Skyler?" "I'm AB positive," he replied.

Aurelia's gaze darkened with intrigue. Geoffrey must share the same blood type if he were Skyler's twin brother.

“Leopold's suspicions must be correct.” She thought. Geoffrey must be hidden away because of his health, relegated to being Skyler's shadow.

Someone growing up without a normal life would harbor a dark psyche.

And with Tanya's continuous manipulation and brainwashing, he would've focused all his hatred on Leopold.

Geoffrey was living in the shadows like a bug, while Leopold - his half-brother basked in the limelight and had everything, so he wanted to kill Leopold and take over all the glory and power.

"Skyler, promise me. No matter what happens, don't let him steal your joy." Skyler giggled. "I'm just a kid. I'm happy as long as | can play and have fun." Aurelia smiled and patted his head. "You're a good boy, Skyler. | hope you stay happy forever." After dinner with Skyler, Aurelia left for Leopold's secret villa.

She shared with him the discovery of AK Group's secret cultivation of Blood Reservoirs.

"I guess Geoffrey suffers from some genetic disease. Has your family or the Heninger family ever had any hereditary diseases?" Leopold pondered for a moment. "Not that I've heard of. It might not be hereditary. Could be something acquired." Aurelia stroked her chin in thought. The Stirling and Heninger families both boasted their superior human genetics. It was unlikely they would carry genetic diseases.

Maybe Geoffrey was just a case of a genetic mutation. What a poor kid.

"Or maybe," she speculated, "Tanya has made up a story to intensify Geoffrey's resentment, claiming his illness was all because of his aunt's doing." Leopold reached out and playfully ruffled her hair. "You've got quite the imagination." Aurelia's theories were running wild then.

"Geoffrey might have harmed most of Skyler's pets. He pretended to be Skyler and killed the pets to make everyone believe Skyler had severe mental health issues.

Skyler seems pretty lively and a bit shy but not the loner or socially awkward type as previously described. It's Geoffrey who probably has these issues. As kids, he might have often switched places with Skyler, drugging him to keep him asleep, so Skyler never knew what had happened.

| bet he's even thought about killing Skyler to take his place. The serious accidents that happened to Skyler were his doing. But as his condition worsened, he couldn't keep up the charade as Skyler. He would get busted immediately, so he had to retreat into the shadows."
