Chapter 1148
Skyler clenched his fists tightly, whitening his knuckles with the force of his anger. What an arrogant
jerk without any self-awareness at all!
[Your reputation is already in the gutter with the Stirling family. Everyone knows Geoffrey is a bad
apple. There's no way they'd welcome you back with open arms. You might as well give up and turn a
new leaf. It's never too late to mend your ways.]
[Pass this message to Leopold. It's either the throne or Aurelia. If he's willing to give up his claim as the
head of the Stirling family and release Tanya, I might let him off the hook. Otherwise, I swear he'll lose
the woman he loves the most.]
Skyler boiled over his indignation. [If you dare lay a finger on Angel, I won't let you get away with it.
Don't think I can't see through your disguise. No matter who you pretend to be, I'll sniff you out. I'll
concoct the most fearsome poison in the world and send you straight to hell.]
[Don't think I won't take you down just because you're my brother. If you cross me, I'll take you out just
the same.]
[I'm not afraid of you. We'll see who has the last laugh. I'm your nemesis to thwart you.]
That was what Angel had said. She said Skyler was Geoffrey's nemesis. Geoffrey represented
darkness, and Skyler, the light. Light would always overcome the dark.
[Fool, you'll regret this. One day, you'll be on your knees, crying and begging for my forgiveness.]
Skyler was convinced that the one to kneel would never be him. Evil could never triumph over good.
"William and Kane, the SkyWill Studio needs to prepare for battle. We've got to find a way to beat
Geoffrey. We can't let him continue his wicked ways."
"Roger that." William and Kane nodded vigorously. "We need to show Geoffrey what we're made of."
Nina sparkled her eyes upon hearing their exchange. "You guys are in the SkyWill Studio?"
"Yeah, we're all about wiping out evil and upholding justice," William confirmed with a nod. "We're going
to show Geoffrey the power of SkyWill."
"Wow!" Nina clapped her hands. "That's so cool! Can I join?"
"Of course! But you'll start as a reserve member. You've got to master the skills before you can join the
ranks. It's all about the hero's code." William explained.
Nina pouted. "Alright then."
At the sight of Nina's enthusiasm, Mira whispered timidly, "Can I join too?"
Nina shook her head so fast it was a blur. "No way, you're such a klutz. You'd just get in the way.
Besides, what can you do besides eat?"
Mira's face fell, "Can't a clumsy person be a hero?"
Kane, taking on an adult-like demeanor, patted her head. "You can be a reserve member too. If you
grow up and learn some awesome skills, we'll promote you."
Mira's tears turned into a smile. "Okay!"
William made a gesture with his finger to his lips. "Shush. This is our secret, okay? Adults can't know."
Nina and Mira mimicked the gesture, their voices a whisper. "Mum's the word."
Meanwhile, in another room, a murderous intent glimmered behind Leopold's handsome features.
Aurelia nestled in his arms, murmured, "I thought the fake Raines was Geoffrey, but he's just a
nobody."
Leopold had already ordered a close watch on the impostor's every move. He was bound to make
contact with Geoffrey soon.
"He won't last long."
Aurelia mused, "What I want to know is if Skyler has an identical twin brother out there."
A sharp glint flashed in Leopold's eyes. "To mimic Skyler's face isn't hard. All you need is a good Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
prosthetic mask." he said.
"Do you think fake Raines is wearing one too?"
"A quick check should tell us."
