Chapter 662 Jewel sighed, her voice tinged with impatience, “If it isn't Lana, it would be another woman trying to lure Leopold in. But seriously, Megan, can you not see the heat we're under right now? The cops are on high alert.

“Unfortunately, you're not even close to crossing that threshold yet, let alone being the lady. Stop wasting your ton petty jealousies with those girls and focus on winning over Jessica. That's your ticket in." Megan had always been fiercely competitive, refusing to be outdone by anyone.
That's why she couldn't stand the thought of Leopold treating any other woman better than he treated her.
She craved his undivided affection, to be the jewel in his crown, the belle of Elysium.

Jewel's lips twisted into a wry smile. “If you're relying on tricks and spells, it just shows you lack confidence in yourself. Those love spells can backfire, you know. Black magic always has a price, and when it comes to collect, it's not a pretty sight.” “I don't care!” Megan snapped. "l just want Leopold to be hopelessly devoted to me. It drivesinsane seeing him cozy up to other women. You have to make him mine, heart and soul." Jewel shrugged nonchalantly. “I'l do what | can but, in the end, it's up to you." At the villa, William brought Skyler shomemade chocolate chip cookies that Aurelia had baked herself.
Skyler couldn't wait to take a bite. "Mmm, they're so good! Angel's cookies are the best." Sipping on his juice box, William piped up, “Skyler, which level of hypnosis are we learning today?" “You're doing so well, | think it's tto start on level three?” Skyler said slowly and deliberately.
“Awesome!” William clapped his hands excitedly.
Patting his head gently, Skyler added, “Once you've mastered it, we can take on... take on Geoffrey together.” William nodded vigorously. “Okay!” Skyler had told him Geoffrey was the world’s greatest hypnotist, but William believed he would surpass him someday. After all, he was still young.
Skyler picked up another cookie, savored it with a lick, dipped it in his milk, and then crunched into it contentedly.
“William, next time, can you ask Angel to makeslbars? I'd love that." “Sure thing, William grinned. Once he finished his cookie, he leaned in and asked softly, “Skyler, do you ever miss your mom, dad, and brother back in Elysium?" Skyler spoke at his usual leisurely pace. “A little bit. But my brother's studying abroad, and my folks are always busy. | used to play by myself a lot, which was boring. It's better here with you. Plus, Mom said | need to learn to be independent. In Eastwood Heights, when kids grow up, they have to move out. They can’t stay with their parents forever. I'm still a kid, but 'm growing up fast, so | guess it's tforto have my own space too." William blinked, absorbing the words, then let out a soft sigh. "It's the sin Goldstone. One of my friends" brother moved into his own apartment when he turned eighteen. Now my friend only gets to see his brother on weekends."
