NovelOnlineChapter 520 At the Stirling Mansion, Hanson arrived with Skyler.
Years ago, when Jessica's sister, Tanya, gave birth to her son with Chad - Skyler, she handed him over to Hanson for upbringing.

"Skyler, this is your aunt, Jessica, and your cousin, Leopold.” Hanson said with a smile.
Skyler peeked out from behind Hanson, showing half his face, “Hello, Aunt Jessica. Hello, Leopold, he muttered timidly.
Leopold studied him from the corner of his eye. Skyler bore a resemblance to Hanson, especially his almond-shaped eyes, which were almost identical to his father's.
Jessica offered him some pastries with a smile, “Don't be scared, Skyler. Here, have a muffin." Skyler tugged at Hanson's sleeve, "Dad, | want a lollipop." "Go ahead," Hanson answered, patting Skyler's head and leading him to the couch.
Skyler took out a lollipop, glanced at Leopold, and then took out another one. "Leopold, do you want a lollipop?" "No, thank you,” Leopold responded coolly.

However, it was hard to find anyone in the Stirling Family who could cultivate dark forces overseas other than the Heninger Family.
Jessica turned her attention to Hanson, “Has Skyler married yet?" Hanson sighed, "Not yet. He's still like a child himself. How could he get married?" Jessica handed Skyler a glass of juice, ‘Don't just eat candy, Skyler. Have some juice” “Thank you, Skyler said, taking a sip of juice before returning to his lollipop.
Jessica smiled warmly, "What do you like to do in your spare time?" "| like to plant flowers, Skyler said.
Hanson chuckled, “All the flowers in our yard were planted by him." Skyler's eyes fell upon the peonies outside the window. "May | go see the peonies?" “Of course,’ Jessica replied, directing a servant to show him to the garden.
Once Skyler left, Jessica turned to Hanson, "Did you come to Elysium specifically to see me, or is this a business visit?" Hanson took a sip of his coffee, his expression turning somber, “Jessica, Tanya is ill. She has stomach cancer and might not make it through the year." Jessica was taken aback, "Did she have surgery?" "She did, and they removed half her stomach, but her prognosis isn't very good,” Hanson sighed, "She made a mistake and she regrets it deeply. She's been hoping for your forgiveness all these years." Jessica waved her hand dismissively, I've forgotten all about the past.” Hanson stirred his coffee thoughtfully, "Skyler might not be smart, but he's still a Stirling. All these years, Tanya's biggest worry has been about Skyler. Her only wish now is for Skyler to acknowledge his roots and be allowed to pay respects to Chad during the All Souls’ Day." Jessica fell silent for a moment before saying softly, "I'l consider it. I'll find the right time for him to come back, but not now." Hanson looked at her pleadingly, "Jessica, if possible, let Skyler return to the Stirling family before Tanya's passing. This way, she can be at peace.” Jessica rubbed her temples and said, "Isn't it good being a Heninger? He can live a luxurious life, never facing any hardships.
Joining the Stirling family would only mean receiving additional family funds." Hanson sighed deeply, "This is her obsession. It's just that Chad was such a charmer, Tanya was completely swept off her feet by him."
