Chapter 644 "Don't talk nonsense. I'm as sweet as pumpkin pie, never been one to pick on Kane. As long as Kane plays nice, I'll treat him well." All he had to do was step aside and give the rightful heir up. Then perhaps she'd let him off the hook.
Otherwise, the minute her child was born, it would mark the end of his charade.
Aurelia didn't buy it for a second. Megan's intentions were as clear as daylight to anyone with half a brain.

William wrinkled his nose at her, "So, is your kid gonna duke it out with Kane for the heir?" A shadow of malice flickered in Megan's eyes, "I'll follow whatever Leopold decides. It's not like | have a say in who gets to be the heir." If all those little brats were out of the picture, Leopold would have no choice but to crown her son.
All she had to do was ensure her son was the only option left.
William shrugged, "Anyway, you're having a girl, not someone who can inherit the family fortune.” “It's a boy, not a girl.” Megan snapped back instantly.
"Why are you so fixated on having a boy? Don't want a girl?" William prodded on purpose.
"Because your Uncle Leopold wants a boy" Megan hissed through clenched teeth, thinking, “This little rascal is unbelievably troublesome. None of Angie's offsprings are any good, they're all insufferable brats." William pulled a face at her, “Yeah, right. Uncle Leopold toldhe's happy with Kane. Any other children would just be spare parts he'd rather not have.” Grinning mischievously, he added, "Uncle Leopold also said if you have a boy, we might as well call him ‘Spare Part Stirling." Skyler burst into laughter, "Spare Part Stirling? that's hilarious!" Megan felt like she was about to have a stroke.
“Aurelia, control your kid. If he spouts another word of nonsense, | won't be so understanding.” Arnold's eyes narrowed, menacing, “Lay a finger on William, and | swear you'll regret it for the rest of your childless days." Megan shuddered. She really didn't want to make an enemy of Arnold. Having another adversary in the Stirling family would do her no favors.
"The kid is disrespectful. | may be his aunt, and | deserve srespect.

Go ask him if you don't believe me." Skyler nodded vigorously like a bobblehead in agreement, "Yeah, exactly what Leopold said. | heard it too.” Just like master and apprentice, they were in perfect sync.
Off to the side, Leopold managed to stifle his laughter.
William certainly lived up to the saying ‘small packages carry big things’. Though, ‘Spare Part Stirling’ certainly was funny.
Megan was fuming. Her child was destined to be the heir of the Stirling family. How could he ever be considered spare? Once Leopold only had her son, he'd treasure him and never think of him as spare.
“William, you're so young and already lying. You know, little kids who lie get struck by lightning. Better watch out and stay indoors when it rains.” William kept making faces at her, “I'm not scared. With all the bad stuff you've done, if there was a bolt of lightning, you'd have been zapped long ago." Despite his young age, he had a sharp tongue.
Skyler kept nodding, "William is so adorable, and everyone loves him. The lightning wouldn't dare to hurt him, and it'd go after you" Megan turned angry.
Such a little bastard! If he dared to provoke her again, she would poison him to make him stupid and dumb, so that he could never speak in this life.
