Ollie's eyes gleamed with dissatisfaction for a brief moment.

Maia would always behave demurely and elegantly whenever Cedrick was nearby.

In reality, Ollie had been exposed to Maia's true color more than once, and he knew Maia despised him for being a burden.

Nonetheless, Ollie walked over toward Maia and greeted her politely.

"Good morning, Aunty Maia."

"Morning, Little Ollie." Maia took out a robot toy figure from her bag and gave it to Ollie. "I didn't get to properly take care of you when you were sick previously, so I hope this gift is enough to make up for it. Do you like it?"

Ollie took the toy and nodded calmly, his face devoid of emotions. He was used to hiding his emotions from those outside his circle.

Maia reached out her hand, her nails done with sparkling manicure, as she attempted to pat Ollie's head.

Ollie, however, moved one step toward the dining table and grabbed the glass of hot milk, dodging Maia's hand completely.

He would not allow just anyone to touch

    Cedrick opened his closet and took out his shirt and suit. He changed into his clean shirt, which highlighted his toned muscles underneath.It was then Cedrick caught a whiff of gardenias, a very familiar scent, and he knew it was Maia.Maia reached her arms out and embraced Cedrick from behind as she rested her cheek on his back.His body was incredibly toned without any extra fat.Maia breathed flirtatiously on Cedrick's nape, her voice soft and gentle like a cat's purr. "Master Cedrick, we've been engaged for four years already. Why haven't you touched me after that one time four years ago?"Cedrick pursed his lips without saying anything, and that familiar scent had turned pungent in that instant.Seeing as Cedrick did not push her away, Maia became bold and decided to persist. "My parents have been asking me when we're getting married, and when we can have our own child."Cedrick's expression shifted in an instant as he grabbed Maia's wrist, stunning her. She had almost los

    "Catelyn didn't ask anyone to beat me up; it was the man she's cheating on me with who ambushed me," said Jamie with a sunken face as he sat up on the bed, frustrated, and his face covered with injuries was scrunched.That night, he left the clubhouse with two bodyguards. He originally wanted to take care of his head injury, but he was shoved into the bushes the moment he stepped onto the sidewalk.Those men were fearless enough that they did not even bother covering up their faces. They literally went ham on him and beat him up, not forgetting to sneer at him before they left, reminding him to remember his place!Who else could that be? It was Cedrick's doing!"No matter who it was, we should never let it go so easily!" said Queenie.However, Jamie did not wish to pursue it any further. It was humiliating enough that he was punished by Cedrick, and he would never be as powerful as him. Jamie only said that because he wanted to save his dignity in front of his little sister."Thi

    Startled, Catelyn quickly retrieved her hand. Albert walked toward them with a bouquet of red roses, his expression stoic as he dragged her away from the boy defensively."This is the young master of the Mason family!"With her wrist starting to hurt, Catelyn freed herself from Albert's grip. Her cheeks flushed red as she sheepishly apologized, "I'm so sorry, I got the wrong person. My apologies."The boy heard the commotion and turned around, his eyes twinkling in anticipation when he noticed that Catelyn had arrived. "Aunty Catelyn!"Catelyn was baffled. That voice sounded just like her son's, but…When she saw his face, her shoulders dropped.The boy in front of her was covered from head to toe.His hoodie covered his forehead and the outline of his face, while his eyes hid behind a pair of sunglasses and the lower half of his face was concealed by a face mask.The only bare skin that was not concealed was the area under his eyes. Even his ears were covered by the hoodie!"

    Catelyn sneezed, triggered by her cold and the scent of the roses at hand. She immediately covered her mouth and coughed a few times; the last thing she wanted was to infect the boy with her cold.The concerned Ollie tugged at the hem of Catelyn's shirt and sweetly asked, "Are you unwell, Aunty Catelyn?""I'm okay, just a little cold.""You can call me Ollie or Little Ollie—just not 'Young Master', please" Ollie followed closely behind Catelyn as he then carefully retrieved a paper shaped into a heart and gave it to Catelyn. "I have another gift for you. I hope you like it!"Catelyn looked at the beautiful handmade origami, her heart felt full and warm.How adorable. This was better than the bouquet!Still, this was the first time she met Ollie, was it not?How was he so good at this? Was this hereditary?Cedrick did not look like the type to make his first move when it came to girls. On the contrary, he looked like the type to wait for the woman to strike up an effort first!

    Cedrick was just as enthralled as Ollie was as his eyes darkened.He quickly peeled his eyes away from Catelyn the moment he realized that he had been staring, only to learn that his architect, George, had been spellbound by Catelyn as well.It was as if everything had ceased to exist in that instant, that Catelyn was the only thing that existed in George's world.What an accursed yet captivating woman.Cedrick's expression shifted as he changed the topic to work-related matters.George was the youngest architect working under Cedrick. Catelyn had met him a few times before that, but they only had small talks.The three of them headed toward the unfurnished mansion with raincoats as they discussed the progress. George was an architect under Mason Group, so he was naturally well-versed in furnishing houses.Catelyn expressed her opinions every now and then, working alongside George as they both focused on different areas that were correlated to one another. Cedrick felt left out

    Ollie, meanwhile, sat inside the resting room. He watched as everything unfolded and felt oddly happy.After all, his father had hugged Aunty Catelyn, which meant he must have liked Aunty Catelyn!If he started dating Aunty Catelyn, Ollie would be able to be with Catelyn forever!…The rain only worsened as time went by, and the windscreen wiper barely had time to wipe away the droplets before more fell and wetted the windows. With that, they were forced to stop driving.Cedrick had no choice but to bring them over to another mansion closest to where they were. Meanwhile, Catelyn called Stella to make sure Miles was taken care of before she followed the rest to the hall.The mansion felt cold and desolate, probably because it had been devoid of people for a long time.The room's temperature went up very slowly, even with the aid of the heater.Catelyn's clothes were slightly damp after walking in the rain, even with the raincoat on. She felt cold even during summer as she coile

    Ollie cleared his throat and said, "I think Aunty Catelyn has something to discuss with you about the mansion. She's right next door."Cedrick frowned lightly and said, "I've already given my orders. What else does she want to talk about?"Ollie was not at the scene during their discussion earlier, thus he paused for a moment to think of a comeback before saying, "I'm not too sure about that. You should talk to her yourself."Cedrick rubbed his fingers together and spread his palm open.A small semicircle mark was visible on his palm, caused when Catelyn grabbed his palm when she had tripped and fallen into his embrace.It was obvious how terrified she was at that moment with the way she grabbed him really tightly."I understand. I'll be there in a moment. Albert warmed up some milk for you, so remember to have some before you go to bed.""Alright. Thank you, Father." The boy nodded as he let out a sigh of relief silently. It seemed that Cedrick was not suspicious of him at all.

    Cedrick's face darkened in an instant.At that moment, the bathroom door opened, and out came Catelyn in an oversized dress shirt—his, moreover. Her hair was dripping with water as she tilted her head to the right.She had been looking for a pair of pants to wear as she felt uneasy being pantless. Imagine her surprise when she noticed there was a man in the room."Ahh!" she shrieked as she covered her chest with her hands, glaring at the man before him. "C—Cedrick Mason, what are you doing here?!"Cedrick's back was facing her at that moment. He hung up the phone and tossed it on the table when he heard her scream."Weren't you the one who called me over…"The rest of the words were stuck in his throat when he landed his eyes on Catelyn.The dress shirt that fitted him nicely had turned into an oversized dress on her, while the top three buttons were left unbuttoned.Catelyn followed his gaze as her eyes drifted down to her chest, the shirt damp from her wet hair.The brush sh

    Chapter 1943"Just 999 dollars! It will bring you a long, happy life together."The vendor stared at Catelyn with eager eyes, frantically trying to sell his products.Cedrick looked down at Catelyn tenderly and asked, "Do you like it?"Catelyn picked up a charm to take a look, smiling, "It's not bad, but is it too expensive?"The charm was a good symbol. However, it was just casually made, not worth that much. This vendor was clearly trying to rip them off."As long as you like it, it has value."Cedrick raised his chin. Eason immediately handed over 10 hundred-dollar bills.The vendor gazed at the dollar bills with glowing eyes, took them with trembling hands, and chose a perfect charm for Catelyn and Cedrick.Cedrick took the charm and connected Catelyn's hand and his with it.His long, slender fingers moved. Even the slightest movement was very pleasant. Coupled with the romantic atmosphere, it was so beautiful.Joanne got excited as she watched them, clamoring, "I want o

Evelyn framed Mrs. Mason at the mall with a big belly.""Even a beast won't harm its children. Evelyn risked her child's life! How can she be so cruel?""Bah! Mr. Mason is handsome and rich. Evelyn actually cheated on him!""Her lover is too ugly. Evelyn has terrible taste.""Ahhh, Evelyn moaned so lewdly in the video. How can this man compare to Mr. Mason? I want to vomit..."As people online questioned and criticized Evelyn, her reputation completely collapsed, and she quickly became notorious.Cedrick became the victim of this incident.Cedrick sat in the car, looking at the responses on the Internet. He nodded and said, "You did a good job."To create the illusion that Evelyn cheated on Cedrick, Eason used AI technology to change Ralph's face into a stranger's in the videos of Evelyn and him having sex.

    Chapter 1941Evelyn's voice paused, and her eyes were vicious and angry as she questioned hysterically, "But I did everything out of love for you!"Cedrick wanted to laugh. "Thank you, Ms. Swan. Although your love makes me sick, I have kindly prepared a gift for you."Evelyn looked at him in fear and confusion when she saw a familiar figure walk in through the door.The visitor was just as tall, straight, and handsome as Cedrick. It was amazing to see any difference in their appearance."It's you? You're Ralph?" exclaimed Evelyn, her stomach lurching.For so many nights, she had sex with Ralph, the imposter. No wonder the baby she gave birth to was so disgusting too."Little bitch, long time no see. I missed you so much."Ralph grinned and walked toward Evelyn with lustful eyes."Go away! Go away!"Evelyn frantically waved her pillow, trying to repel Ralph, but these attacks were like a kitten's playing in Ralph's eyes.Ralph smiled evilly, dragged Evelyn down from the hospi

    Chapter 1940A few seconds later, she tore up the piece of paper regardless and looked at Cedrick with crazy eyes, "I'm your wife! It's Mrs. Mason in name only! All of this is a lie. My daughter is your child! And could only be your child!"Cedrick sneered, his deep eyes icy, "Think what you want, as long as you're happy."His voice was deep, pleasant, and charming, but what he said sent chills down Evelyn's spine.Evelyn looked at him incredulously. The smile on Cedrick's lips became even more fascinating. "There's something I forgot to mention. Are you sure the person you married is me? My wife is Catelyn from the beginning."Previous images flashed through Evelyn's mind. She thought of Cedrick's different attitudes. His passion, his impatience... Scene by scene, frame by frame, it was like a horrible movie, making her shiver."Cedrick, you indeed lied to me..."Evelyn stared at Cedrick with hatred, her eyes paranoid and mad."Even if my child is not yours and I didn't marry

    Chapter 1939"I'm satisfied," Cedrick smiled dangerously, his eyes emotional.It was a smile that made Evelyn feel extremely alarmed."Then ... show me the baby."Cedrick looked at Evelyn condescendingly, his deep eyes full of coldness. "Eason."Eason respectfully carried the baby over to the hospital bed. "Mrs. Mason, please."Evelyn took the child in surprise and lifted the swaddling blanket on the baby.Although it was a girl, Evelyn gave birth to her. Naturally, Evelyn loved her.Yet the moment she saw the baby's face, Evelyn's face suddenly changed, and she quickly threw the baby away, leaning down and vomiting."No, it's not my baby! It's not my baby!"'How can she possibly be my child?' The baby was deformed. Her little face was bruised. Her eyes, nose, and mouth were all tightly grown together. She looked extraordinarily horrible..."Mrs. Mason, this is your baby!"Eason nimbly caught the baby that almost fell to the floor and brought it back to Evelyn."Take her a

We'll have an easy time when she has given birth."The doctor reprimanded and turned to go back to his office.Inside the room, Evelyn scrolled through the videos and news with a bitter smile.These days after she came back, Cedrick visited her every day and was photographed by many reporters and media. Now the news was all about her and Cedrick being in love.Yet only she knew that Cedrick always left soon after he came, never staying longer than fifteen minutes.'Is it really because he's too busy working?'When she thought of Summer and Braylon, who came in and out together affectionately, a glint of jealousy flashed in Evelyn's eyes.If only Cedrick could always stay by her side as Braylon did to Summer.Soon, it was Evelyn's due date."Cedrick, I'm so scared..."Evelyn grabbed Cedrick's sleeve, sweating in pain. "I can't take it anymore. I want a C-section with general anesthesia..."With a cold ligh

The condescension she had when she first arrived disappeared.'Braylon is no ordinary man. What if he really wants to help Summer get back at me?'Evelyn subconsciously rubbed her belly. She mustn't let anything happen to her child. She called the nurse and said coldly, "Ask the doctor to come here! I suspect someone has poisoned me."The nurse gave her a frightened look and murmured, "Mrs. Mason, how is this possible?""I don't care! Go get the doctor to check everything in the room. I will not allow anyone to hurt my child!" Evelyn yelled in a stern voice as her eyes went crazy.The nurse called the doctor in fear, and the doctor came, checked everything, and said resignedly, "Mrs. Mason, we assure you that everything here is qualified and absolutely free of any harmful substances. You can relax."Eve

    Chapter 1936Evelyn nodded with satisfaction and asked with a smile, "Did Cedrick arrange this for me?"Eason thought to himself, 'Mr. Mason has no time for her.' Yet he smiled, "Of course, Mrs. Mason. If there's nothing else, I'll go back now."Evelyn smiled and nodded, "Go ahead. There are so many nurses here. They can take care of me."Cedrick had arranged the best labor and delivery room for Evelyn. Three nurses worked 24-hour shifts, so she would have someone to serve her at any time.Evelyn walked into the glass corridor, looking out at the sunshine and green grass. Suddenly, she saw a familiar figure."Who's that woman on the bench?"Evelyn's eyes went cold as she frowned and asked the young nurse next to her.The young nurse came over and asked with a puzzled look, "Mrs. Mason, which one do you mean?" "The old woman on the bench."A sneer appeared on Evelyn's lips, and her tone was acerbic.The nurse gave Evelyn a surprised look. "This lady is Mrs. Hensley, who live

    Chapter 1935Cedrick was silent for a moment, counting the time. Indeed, Evelyn's due date was approaching.The smile on his mouth grew colder as he thought about what was going to happen."I'll have Eason pick you up.""I know you're busy. It's okay to have Eason pick me up, but I want to see you as soon as I get back."Evelyn smiled sweetly, not bothering with these details.As long as Cedrick cared about her, it was the same whoever came to pick her up.Evelyn touched her round belly, and her expectant face gradually became worried.'It's said that a sharp belly predicts a son and that a round belly predicts a daughter. My belly is so round. Will I have a daughter?'Meanwhile, Cedrick hung up the phone, casually threw it to the bedside, lay back down, and pulled the soft Catelyn into his arms.Half asleep, Catelyn heard Evelyn speaking arrogantly on the phone and slumped against Cedrick's chest."Evelyn's coming back?"Cedrick nodded slightly, a little impatient.
