Chapter 91

Although Miles had accepted Ollie's proposal to swap identities, it did not mean he accepted Cedrick. He still held a grudge against the man for locking him up in a room.Cedrick's brows twitched as he scanned the child's face before saying in a cold voice, "You've always been a picky eater, so your food has been prepared specifically by the chef Albert hired. Will you be able to eat the food that I don't like?"Miles clung to Catelyn's leg as his jewel-like eyes glimmered. "A man who lacks emotions like you will never understand that food tastes better in the company of a pretty woman."It was the first time ever that Cedrick was rendered speechless by his son, and he wondered whether his son truly knew the meaning of what he had just said."Alright, stop it, both of you." Catelyn did not wish to see the two arguing over a meal and squatted to look Miles in the eye. "Ollie, didn't your dad help us just now?"Although he was reluctant to admit it, Miles nodded before arguing weakl

Despite that, 'Ollie' refused to remove his mask and held onto it instead. "I have pimples on my face, so I don't look handsome right now. I can't show my face to Aunty Catelyn, or it's going to destroy my perfect impression on her.""I know you're a handsome little guy just looking at your dad. It won't affect your impression of me. How are you going to eat with your mask on?" Catelyn tried to convince him, but 'Ollie', who was often quite obedient, protested and ran to hide before Cedrick with his plate in his hands.He sat and batted his eyelashes. "I'm still not showing you."If his lies were exposed, Miles knew it would not end well for him. He had kicked Terry and called Cedrick names, after all, and he would suffer for these if they realized that he was not Ollie.Most importantly, he had not been to school for days, and Ollie was the one going in his place; his mother would surely be furious if she found out. She might even send him off to a boarding school, so he had to co

Catelyn then scooped another spoonful of stew onto Cedrick's plate. Seeing the way he responded, he must have liked this dish.Cedrick devoured the stew expressionlessly and said, "I had an important phone call that morning.""I get it—you're a busy man. You don't have to explain anything to me."Frankly, I still owe you the hospital bills." Perhaps it was because there was a child in the same room, but Catelyn did not feel as awkward and chatted casually with Cedrick.Cedrick's expression darkened and thought, 'She 'gets it'? What exactly does she mean? I didn't even leave the hospital that day; she was the one who ran off without saying a thing!'Catelyn sensed the shift in Cedrick's emotion in silence and thought back to all the words she had said, but she could not think of a second where she crossed the line. In the end, she decided to avoid talking to Cedrick altogether and focused on 'Ollie' instead. "Ollie, my son is around the same age as you are. He has the same taste to

Chapter 94

Miles rolled his eyes and pouted when he realized that Cedrick was, in fact, ill. "You shouldn't have eaten spicy food if you can't take it. It's not like anyone would laugh at you for that."The only response he received was a chilling glare from Cedrick.Miles curled up for a moment, before straightening his back and added, "You're even worse than a kid. Hmph!"Cedrick's expression darkened as he studied how riled up Miles seemed. A person's temperament might change due to certain events, but one's taste would not.He was certain that Ollie could not tolerate spicy food, so what happened?Eason had informed the hospital of their arrival ahead of time, so by the time they arrived, everyone was cleared from the vicinity.Cedrick swallowed the medicine with warm water and felt the burning sensation in his stomach subsided. He grabbed onto Miles' collar and tossed him toward the doctor. "Check him, too.""I'm not sick. Why do I need to be checked?" Miles tried to get up from the c

"Just picked your son up from school, Catelyn?""My, your son is so cute! I have some vegetables here that are fresh out of the farm. You want some?"The old man at the butcher shop across from them saw Catelyn and Ollie and called out to them as usual, "Miles, come to Grandpa Santos. I'll chop some meat for you!"Ollie hesitated and contemplated whether he should go to the man.Catelyn finished buying the vegetables she needed and brought Miles to the butcher shop with a smile. "Grandpa Santos, give me the usual ribs.""Sure thing." The old man chopped up a piece of ribs and placed it on the electronic scale to weigh it, before making a face in Ollie's direction. It was apparent that the old man was close with Miles."Oh? Why isn't Miles smiling at Grandpa Santos today?"Whenever he made faces at Miles, the boy would often pretend to be an adult and shake his head proudly. Today, however, the boy was only looking back at him quietly.Ollie pursed his lips and greeted sweetly,

Chapter 96

Catelyn sniffled as she tried to suppress the sorrow she felt.Ollie was just a child that was barely four-year-old after all, so he would not press on a topic that he knew would upset Catelyn. With that, he tried whatever he could to cheer Catelyn up and talked about the things that happened at school, such as what the teacher taught them, what he did, and how many red flowers he had gotten.Catelyn's attention was diverted, but the despair she felt lingered, all while she wondered if her baby would have survived had she been more careful.…At noon, the Mexicaean meat stew came fresh out of the stove.Both Stella and Catelyn were excited, but Ollie could not help but feel troubled.He could not stomach spicy food. Just a little bit from last time had him suffering through hell, and the dinner right in front of him at the moment was clearly even spicier. He could only scowl at the food."Miles, why aren't you eating?" Catelyn filled his plate with a spoonful of stew.Ollie sum

Chapter 97

Catelyn described Ollie's symptoms to the doctor and added, "it's my fault, doctor. I shouldn't have fed him spicy food. Does he have gastroenteritis?""Don't panic, Ma'am. A child's stomach isn't fully developed, so they're prone to vomiting, diarrhea, stomachache, and infection. These are normal, nonetheless. I've prescribed him some medicine, so just head downstairs to make the payment."Ollie, lying on the bed, watched how worried Catelyn was, and the smile on his lips froze with guilt.His guilt soon turned into bitterness.'It's so nice to have a mother who loves me, to feel worried when I get sick like Aunty Catelyn does,' he thought, 'but I…don't have a mother.'Every time he fell sick, his father would merely stand at a distance and let the doctor and Alfred take care of him. Although Maia would visit sometimes, she did not adore children as much as she tried to appear. When his father was around, Maia was an elegant, high-born lady, but whenever Cedrick was not around, M

Chapter 98

"It's fine. I can do this myself."Catelyn had been taking care of her son on her own all this while, and she had grown used to it.Cedrick reached his long fingers and snatched the receipts from her hands before whispering in a seductively low voice, "I don't think this is an appropriate time for you to try and be the hero here. Every second's delay is another second your son is suffering."Catelyn gritted her teeth, unable to argue.Cedrick was right. This was not the time to try and distance herself from him.Cedrick dragged Catelyn and walked upstairs. When he glanced through the medications stated on the receipts, he lifted his brow once again.He himself had a weak stomach, so it was natural that he was familiar with medication for stomach pain, and the medicines he saw on the bill…"What's wrong with your son?"Catelyn followed closely behind him. The floor 'Miles' was on was not that high, so instead of taking the elevator, the two climbed up the stairs instead."He ha

Chapter 99

Catelyn could not seem to reach the bottom of Cedrick's eyes or see through him.She let go of him in disappointment and realized that he had no reason to help her. Perhaps he was only trying to be polite by offering to come with her.However, the moment she let go, Cedrick suddenly grabbed her hand, and his rough hand brushed past her palm. After that, he turned and entered the men's room, disappearing before Catelyn's eyes.Catelyn suddenly felt like the palm he had touched felt extremely hot.Cedrick walked into the washroom and, as expected, saw a few men standing in front of the urinals. His brows twitched in response, and he was glad he had stopped Catelyn from running in.He then turned to stare at the individual toilets.There was a big gap between the doors and the floor, and he would be able to see the shoes and the hems of the trousers that the person inside was wearing. It was obvious that there were adults before the first few doors, except for the last one.Behind

Beep!Just then, Cedrick's action was stopped by the sound of his phone beeping.When he saw the display on the screen, he scowled.…Catelyn waited in front of the men's toilet, but Cedrick had yet to come out with her son yet.She paced back and forth in the corridor anxiously when suddenly, she saw men exiting the bathroom, one after another. A few seconds later, Cedrick appeared before her as well.Cedrick took the maintenance board and placed it before the men's room. "Miles is in there, but he won't come out. Maybe his stomach is upset, but he's scared of seeing the doctor. I've cleared the bathroom out, so you can go in and wait," he said with a scowl.Catelyn sighed a breath of relief and looked at Cedrick with gratitude. "Thank you, but what are you—""My son fell off the stairs, so I need to head back right now," Cedrick explained swiftly and left without hesitation.She was stunned for a moment and began worrying when she imagined Ollie falling off the stairs. She w
