Chapter 523 Leopold's gaze deepened, akin to a frozen deep pool, unfathomable.

"So he's been at home tending to flowers every day since he was a kid?" "He loves flowers. All the flowers in our garden were planted by him. He even talks to them." Leah chuckled, “Tanya often takes him out on trips, seeking doctors for his treatments. Among all of our cousins, she favors him the most. | sometimes wonder if he's her son." She cheekily pulled a funny face.

Leopold didn't delve further, fearing arousing suspicion. He switched the topic with a playful tone.

“Is Avery really that hard to win over? You've been after him for three years and he’s still not yours?" Leah pouted, "Look at you! You're seen as nothing but a dandy through the Hawthornes’ eyes. We're two of a kind, both struggling in love. Maybe one day Aurelia will remarry and you'll be full of regrets.” Leopold choked at her sharp words. She was quite a spitfire.

"I have to go to work now. You can go entertain yourself." Leah stuck her tongue out at him, "Going to work to see Aurelia? Who would've thought a smart guy like you could make a mistake? You must be regretting divorcing Aurelia, right?" Leopold was speechless, "Get out of the car" Leah hopped out of the car, "Leopold, good luck! We may need to tie the knot in the future.

"Don't forget to visit your dad." Leopold reminded her before driving off.

Not long after he arrived at his office, Aurelia came over with a cup of coffee.

"Have you met the Heningers yet?" He briefly described the encounter to her.

She touched her chin thoughtfully, "If he's pretending to be ignorant, he’s quite a good actor. Enduring humiliation for the sake of revenge, aiming to take control of the Stirling estate?" Leopold recalled Leah's words. If Tanya was often with him, she might have told him the truth.

"It's worrisome if Tanya has been nursing a grudge and influencing him." Aurelia sneered, "Considering Chad's fickle nature, even if she hadn't been driven away, she would've been abandoned by him.

A tragic ending was inevitable." Leopold stirred his coffee, "I heard from Hanson that she's ill and might not survive this year" Aurelia was slightly taken aback, “Is she really sick or just pretending? Magnolia has played the sick card, faking a terminal illness to get a bone marrow transplant. You should be careful.” Leopold's expression turned grave, “I will arrange for a doctor to check on her. We'll find out whether she's telling the truth.” Aurelia sighed, "I hope it's not Tanya and Skyler. Family members hurting each other is just too painful.

It was all because of that scoundrel, Chad, leaving a mess behind for Leopold to clean up.

Perhaps even the Grim Reaper was disgusted with him, hence taking him away prematurely.

Leopold took a sip of his coffee, "My mom has decided that if they're innocent, we'll bring Skyler back to the Stirling family to fulfill Tanya's longstanding wish." Aurelia thought of her own son, William. If he returned to the Stirling family, it wouldn't exactly be a return to his roots. After all, being with Arnold made him a child of the Stirling family too. At most, it would be acknowledging his biological father.

She wondered how Leopold would react then. Would he have the urge to strangle her? But it was all his fault.

She originally planned to reveal the truth at their wedding, but he abandoned her.

So, he had no right to blame her.

“Lhope you will learn from Chad's mistakes and avoid indiscriminately sowing seeds of love. This only leads to sons destroying each other, causing unrest” The Stirling family's rule of primogeniture made sense. It was to prevent siblings from fighting against one another.

If the family didn't differentiate between legitimate and illegitimate children and let the most capable inherit, it would lead to chaos.

Each of the sons had their unique strengths. No one would admit to being inferior to others. This would only result in a massive brawl.
