Chapter 555 Aurelia served Skyler some roasted chicken and got him a bowl of soup.

"Skyler, eat up. When you're done, let's head out to the Rose Garden to check out the peonies, okay?" “Okay, Skyler nodded, his voice soft.

He couldn't handle spicy food, not even a hint of it, so Aurelia had made sure to order mild dishes for him.

“Angel, | talked to Daddy, and | want to stay in Elysium a bit longer to play. He agreed. He said that when Grandma hits her 90th birthday bash, Jessica and Leopold will bring me and Leah back with them." Aurelia chuckled, "Well then, as soon as | get some free time, I'll join Leopold in taking you out for some fun, how's that?" "Great!" Skyler beamed a toothy grin, his eyes sparkling with innocence as untouched as the waters of a secret mountain spring.

Leopold deftly peeled a shrimp and placed it on Aurelia’s plate.

Seeing this, Skyler tried to do the same, wanting to peel shrimp for Aurelia so she would like him even more.

But he had never peeled shrimp before, and it was always the nanny who did it for him. Accidentally, he poked his finger and winced, blowing on it to ease the sting.

Aurelia quickly pulled out a band-aid and patched him up.

"Skyler, shrimp can be tricky to peel. Let me do it for you." Skyler sighed with a hint of disappointment, "I haven't got it yet, but when | do, I'll peel them for you to eat.” Knowing his intentions, Aurelia smiled, "Thank you, Skyler, but you should just enjoy your meal. Don't worry about me. I'm your angel, and | can manage just fine." Hearing this, Skyler gestured to Leopold, “Leopold, she can eat, on her own, she doesn't...doesn't need your help." Leopold was speechless.

A family of four approached a nearby table.

A boy, about nine, made a face at Skyler and laughed at him, “You're a stutterer, such a disgrace.” The boy's parents didn't stop him, and they even chuckled along.

Emboldened, the boy climbed onto his seat and continued taunting Skyler, sticking out his tongue.

A shadow of hurt crossed Skyler's eyes as he set down his utensils and curled up into Aurelia's embrace.

“Angel, | want a lollipop.” Whenever he was nervous or scared, he craved a lollipop.

Aurelia wrapped him in a hug and stroked his hair, whispering comfortingly, "Skyler, be brave. Don't be afraid.

There are always going to be some unfriendly people in the world. Just ignore them, pretend they don't exist." Leopold frowned slightly. He didn't like any other man getting too close to Aurelia. Even though Skyler was mentally a child, physically he was grown.

He grabbed Skyler's arm and pulled him to his side, then put an arm around his shoulders and handed him an unwrapped lollipop. Aurelia silently marveled at his possessiveness.

Meanwhile, the mocking family continued their ridicule as if they had found a new source of entertainment.

Leopold slammed his hand on the table with a loud smack.

"Let's move to a private dining room." They had arrived early and since the main dining area was empty, they'd chosen a spot by the window.

The taunting boy was startled into tears, and a baby in a stroller also started crying.

The parents were now upset, hurling insults at Leopold.

"He's just a kid. What are you being so aggressive for? You, a grown man, were picking on a child, and what kind of manners are those? He's clearly an imbecile, and we just told the truth.” The woman ranted on.

‘Yuna and the bodyquards from another table stood up, glaring at the offensive family, their large frames and fierce demeanor instantly intirnidating therm into silence. They couldn't get out another word, not daring to even breathe too loudly.

They had crossed someone they shouldn't have.
