When she cdownstairs, she ruffled William's hair. "Sweetie, why is your girlfriend last on your list?" "Well, the people you meet later gotta wait their turn, right? First come, first served," William said, shaking his head.
"Right," Skyler interrupted, vigorously nodding.
Aurelia was a little helpless. "But honey, the love for a girlfriend differs from the love for family. It's like apples and oranges." William pouted. "Mom, family is one-of-a-kind, but there can be a bunch of girlfriends." Aurelia nearly choked on her breath, coughing and staring in disbelief.
What did he mean by a bunch of girlfriends? What was he implying? "William, you can only have one girlfriend at a time, and your girlfriend should be the one you love the most." William replied casually, "Mommy, so many cute girls are out there. How can | like one only? And I'm handsand awesome.

"Who on earth taught you these things?" "Nobody, but I've always thought this way," William said, shaking his head.
Aurelia felt petrified, sensing a disaster in the making.
It was a clear case of the apple not falling far from the tree. Her son had inherited Mr. Chad's charming genes. Would he be a heartbreaker? "Honey, let's look at it another way. What if your girlfriend had other boyfriends besides you? Wouldn't you be upset?" she asked tentatively.
William admitted frankly, "Of course, that's called cheating, which is wrong. What | mean is changing girlfriends after breaking up.
If I didn’t like her anymore, I'd break up with her and find a new girlfriend." Taking a deep breath, Aurelia found herself at a loss for words.
She comforted herself silently, reasoning that her son was still young and naive. He might change when he was older and understood the meaning of love.
During her moment of silence, William spoke again.
"Mommy, are you worried I'll beclovesick in the future? Don't worry. I'm a boy, a genius with a high IQ. I'm very rational. It's girls who tend to get all lovesick. I'll look out for Nova, so no bad boys fool her." Aurelia was in disarray, speechless.
On the other hand, Kane disagreed with William. He shared his mother's view that a man should only have one girlfriend, the one he liked the most, just as Dad felt about Mom.

Trying to change the subject, Aurelia bit into a piece of fruit. This is exclusive content from (Sw). Please read it on to support the author and the translation team! "Skyler, are many teachers at school trying to woo you?" she asked.
Skyler made a face. "They have no clue I'm just a kid pretending to be an adult." In Aurelia's eyes, although Skyler might have the mind of an eight-year-old, he could still date. But he needed to find a girl who was more a playmate than a mature woman. Sierra would be perfect.
Even though Tanya had introduced her, Sierra wasn't involved with the AK Group. She seemed like a genuine, innocent young woman who could keep up with Skyler's playful spirit.
"Skyler, haven't you been out of touch with Sierra for a while?" "She textedyesterday, saying she found a new job and starts tomorrow," Skyler replied.
Aurelia paused, slightly surprised. "She's not working as your Aunt Tanya's assistant anymore?" Skyler shrugged. "Guess the job's something my aunt lined up for her. | don't know what they're up to." A cunning gleam flashed in Aurelia's eyes as she replied, "The next tyou have a chance, why not ask her what her job is?"
