Chapter 583

Skyler waved off Aurora's concerns with a smirk. "This is Neo-Vespera. What, do you think I'm going to kidnap him and run off? Besides, if the O'Briens can't even keep an eye on their own kid, that's hardly my fault, is it?"

Skyler turned, and as soon as his eyes landed on Stella, a warm smile broke across his face. "Star! You're here."
