"What did she tell you?" Cedrick asked in a low voice.With a disgusted look on his face, Benjamin replied, "It's so cheap for you to have a mistress. You don't even buy her a set of designer clothes. Look at the stuff that she is wearing. You are worse than I am."Cedrick's mouth twitched. "A few days ago, your mother asked me if there was a suitable marriage candidate for you. She did not care about her appearance, education, or family background, as long as she was willing to spend all your money away."Damn it! Was his value in the dating market this terrible already?...When she walked out of the office building, Catelyn was not discouraged.There were many excellent lawyers in Sapphire City. Since Benjamin was going abroad, he would not accept consulting sessions for a period of time. Similarly, Jamie could not hire him either. The most important thing at present was to have a stable job.If she went to court in the future, the judge would believe that she had the strengt
Meanwhile, at Golden Sun Kindergarten.The afternoon sun shone gently, casting its golden light upon the flowers in the garden.Ollie came up with an excuse to go home early.Exiting the kindergarten, he then turned right and followed the trail. He was carrying a backpack with a cartoonish yellow duck pattern, which accentuated his innocent-looking face even more.As he made a turn, Ollie sensed that there was a presence following him from a distance. He cautiously made a turn into a hidden alley.Miles sneakily followed after him.'Huh? I could've sworn he went this way. Why don't I see him anywhere?' Miles thought to himself when all of a sudden, he noticed a dark figure moving toward him. With pursed lips, he switched to an offensive position to face the shadow—"It's me!" shouted Ollie as subconsciously dodged Miles' swing in self-defense.Miles pouted and sighed in relief. "Idiot! Why didn't you say anything if you knew that it was me? You would've cried if I accidentally
Clearing his throat, Ollie sweetly replied as he batted his crystal-clear eyes at the doctor, "We didn't make the wrong appointment, pretty lady. Please help us send the samples for the DNA test. We've already settled the payment for this, too."The doctor's hand unconsciously supported the side of her face as she grinned at Ollie's compliment."Not a mistake, then? Alright, I'll make the arrangements for the procedure right away. You boys are still very young, so don't run around, okay? Wait here for me."...The light of the setting sun shone through the car window and lit up the inside of the car.Catelyn sat in the passenger's seat and tried to distract herself by staring at the moving skyscrapers.How did Cedrick find out that she was fighting Jamie for the custody of her son? Did Benjamin tell him? How could he lack professionalism to this extent?Cedrick moved the steering wheel and drove ahead slowly, all the while glancing at her from the corner of his eye."Jamie had
Catelyn wanted to pull her hand away, but Cedrick was so strong that she could not move, even if she struggled until her skin turned red.She became increasingly frustrated as even if he was not threatening her, he was still taking advantage of her."Do you really not care about my past?"She birthed a child out of wedlock, and her father was a notorious murderer. People of the Clark family had avoided her like the plague, and for someone like her to survive in the elite community, she might qualify as a plaything but not at all the type that one would take home to their parents.Cedrick had told Janice that Catelyn was his new lover the other day and up until now, Catelyn still had no clue as to what he meant by it.Would the Masons even believe that he was interested in a woman like her? She would not even qualify to be a wallflower."I'm choosing my girlfriend, not a business partner. Besides, I have an illegitimate son as well, don't I?" Cedrick smiled as stared at her heated
Catelyn knew that Cedrick wanted her to key in the kindergarten's address.Knowing that refusing would not mean a thing to Cedrick, she swiftly keyed in the words [Golden Sun Kindergarten] on the screen. Pressing on the [Confirm] button, a green path promptly appeared on the screen....In the private hospital, the doctor informed the two boys that the results would be released in five days.Miles quickly dragged Ollie out of the hospital and said, "Let's just wait quietly for the results to come up in the next five days. Once the results are released, we'll know if we're truly related."Miles wore a black mask and his majestic-looking suit made him appear much taller and Ollie was following him, carrying his enormous backpack."Miles? If… I'm just saying this, but if we're truly twins, will you let Aunt Catelyn be my mom, too? I can let you have my father as well."Miles rolled his eyes uncaringly. "My mom and I are fine without Big Demon."Unwilling to give up, Ollie persiste
Jane's eyes lit up in realization. She had always heard that Catelyn was a single mother because the father of her child did not want to take responsibility. Judging from what she could see at the moment, Catelyn's relationship with her husband seemed rather harmonious.She asked caringly, "By the way, Miles said that his grandmother isn't feeling well and went home early. How's your mother right now? Is she feeling any better?"...Catelyn was furious when she learned that her son had run from the kindergarten, deciding she had to strictly discipline him once she found him. Miles seemed to grow increasingly wilful.Cedrick's eyebrows twitched when he heard that Miles had run from school as he was reminded that his son, Ollie, had recently developed a habit of skipping school as well.Catelyn immediately called Miles, but as seconds ticked by, no one picked up. She felt chills down her spine as though something was about to happen.'Calm down,' she told herself, 'you have to calm
In a dark alley outside the window stood a familiar-looking child.Relief washed over Cedrick at the sight, but at the same time, his stare grew cold. He told Albert to cease all searches for Ollie before hanging up.The car doors opened at the same time, as both Cedrick and Catelyn hurried over to the child standing in the alley. Catelyn was not as swift as Cedrick, and with their difference in the lengths of their legs, the steps he took were much larger than hers.Catelyn was soon left behind. However, she assumed that he recognized Miles, so not only did she not suspect a thing, she was grateful to Cedrick for caring so much for her child....On the street outside the alley, Miles crossed his arms and leaned lazily against the wall while dressed in a full-body suit. Meanwhile, Ollie was changing his clothes inside the alley.Both of them looked the exact same and were of the same physique, but Ollie was shy and told Miles to wait outside.The mask on Miles' face made it har
"Master Cedrick." Catelyn pointed at Miles, her finger trembling as she widened her eyes in disbelief. "W—What did you call him?"Cedrick looked at how shocked Catelyn was and scowled. "He's Ollie. Haven't you met him before? Do you not recognize him without the mask?"'Ollie... Ollie Mason? He's Ollie Mason?!' Catelyn felt like she had been struck by lightning."If he is Ollie, then where's my Miles?"Cedrick studied her curiously, eventually thinking that she was so overtaken with worry over Miles. "Don't worry," he assured her. "I promised that I'll help you search for your son, and I intend on keeping that promise, but Ollie has been in a bit of a rebellious mood lately, so I'll have to send him back to Albert first. Just wait for me here."'Huh?' Catelyn was baffled. 'What are you talking about? My son is right there in your arms!'"You..." Catelyn struggled to speak. She did not think it would be possible for her to not recognize Miles, but at the same time, she could not p
