Skyler's mood soured, and he puffed out his cheeks like a petulant child.
[I'm suited for teaching. The kids love my classes. You're jealous of me. That's all. I'm happy now. Everyone likesand says I'm a good kid.] Skyler retorted.

[I call it being content with what | have. Geoffrey, stop sneaking around doing shady stuff. Make friends like | do and try to live a little.] [Live a little? Do you mean waste away doing nothing but eating, drinking, and having fun? You're useless. I've got plans, big plans, and nobody's going to stop me. You better not help Leopold and Aurelia anymore, or you'll feel sorry.] [I will help them, and if you dare hurt Angel and Leopold, | won't go easy on you, either. I'm not afraid.] Standing on tiptoes beside Skyler, William peeked at his phone, and then he shouted in anger, "Don't listen to him, Skyler. He's just jealous and wants you to live in his miserable shadow with no friends, no joy, just like him, a heartless villain." Skyler nodded emphatically. "I know better than to fall for his tricks." Aurelia brought out a platter of assorted fruits. "Tfor a break, kids. Fruit's up." Nina tugged at Skyler's sleeve. "Skyler, | want to hear another story. Can you do another session later?" "We all do," echoed William, Kane, and Mira in unison.
Scratching his head, Skyler couldn't help but beam with pride. He had a knack for teaching. Why hadn't he realized it before? "Sure." Seeing the confident smile on his face, Aurelia felt a surge of happiness. She had scheduled his interview on Monday, and she and Arnold would accompany him. Kane and William would also calong for a campus tour.
Skyler bit into a piece of apple, his mind racing ahead to the interview. He felt a bit anxious.
"Angel, what if | get too nervous and start stammering?" With a gentle pat on his shoulder, Aurelia reassured him. "Just think of us when you feel nervous. You're not alone. We'll be right there with you." "Okay." Skyler nodded.
William whispered, "Skyler, remember to carry the courage lollipop my mom gave you. If you get nervous, put your hand in your pocket and hold onto it. It'll give you courage." "Will do." Skyler grinned broadly, vowing to bring his courage lollipop wherever he went.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIn the elite social circles, a rumor quietly spread that Megan's child was not Leopold's. He hadn't recovered his fertility and couldn't father a child.
Aurelia strongly suspected Sheryl had started the gossip.
Back at the Stirling Mansion, Leopold was in his study, calmly dealing with business matters as she brought him a coffee.
"There's a rumor going around that Megan's kid isn't yours, that your... sperm quality isn't up to snuff for carrying on the family line." Leopold was unbothered, his demeanor as serene as a clear sky. "Fools' words fall on deaf ears." In a teasing tone, Aurelia prodded. "It's been a while since you got poisoned. You've recovered by now, right? Have you had any checks done?" Leopold reached out, ruffling her hair with a big hand. "What's got you worried?" She pulled a face. "I still want a daughter, you know. If your little swimmers aren't up to the task, | might have to find someone else." Before she could finish, he flicked her forehead playfully. "Believe it or not, | could make it happen right now." She stuck out her tongue mischievously. "You can’t. Missed the window this month."
