Chapter 443


    Chapter 443


    Miles was about to tease Grandma May, but to his bewilderment, a towering figure appeared before


    him instead. As his eyes traveled up the trousers, he saw a face that was extremely simr to his own.


    The smile on his face copsed as he eximed, “Big Demon?!”


    Miles immediately tried to close the door, but Cedrick beat him to it and propped his arm against the


    door, overpowering Miles’ effort.


    Ollie instinctively went to help, but as he raised his arms and was about to touch the door, Cedrick


    red at him coldly, warning him to stay out of it.


    Ollie pursed his chapped lips and went to help Miles with holding the door without hesitation.


    Noticing that she did not hear Grandma May’s voice after the boys went to the door, Catelyn dried her


    hands and went out, only to find her sons desperately trying to shut the door. Their faces were a shade


    of crimson, and the veins on the back of their hands protruded.


    Through the open gap of the door, Cedrick stood outside and stared down at their small ‘rebellion’ with


    a casual look on his face.


    When they managed to push until there was only a finger-wide gap, he would push slightly harder until


    there was a fist-sized gap, and they would push harder again.


    The same cycle repeated multiple times, to the point that it became obvious that he was toying with


    them.


    Catelyn continued to dry her hands on her apron and lowered her voice as shemanded, “Miles,


    Ollie, let go.”


    However, her sons were reluctant to oblige. “We can’t let Big Demon in! This is our home!”


    Catelyn wanted to argue that they would not be able to win against Cedrick in terms of strength, and


    out of concern that her sons would exhaust themselves, she sternly warned, “Are you going to ignore


    my words?”


    Miles and Ollie gave each other regretful expressions and counted to three in their heads before


    withdrawing their hands at the same time.


    Cedrick had not expected that the door would open abruptly and stumbled forward. Luckily, he was


    able to bnce himself and did not fall.


    Miles red daggers at Cedrick in the exact manner a small animal would at its enemy.


    Alex poked his head out from behind Cedrick with an enormous suitcase in his hands. “Good evening,


    young masters.”


    Ollie nced at Alex quietly before finally greeting him, “Good evening, Uncle Alex.”

    “This must be Master Ollie, and this would be… Master Miles?” Seeing that the twins were dressed in


    the same outfit, Alex was worried that he would make a fool of himself for addressing them wrongly.


    Miles snorted proudly and lifted his chin. “Who are you calling ‘master’? I’m not rted to Big Demon!”


    Alex recoiled and turned to look at Ollie. “Master Ollie?”


    “I’ve already decided to follow Mommy,” answered Ollie calmly without hesitation.


    An intimidating presence from behind sent chills down Alex’s spine. He risked a nce at Cedrick’s


    face,


    thinking that he would be furious, but Cedrick simply stepped into the living room without a word.


    Miles and Ollie tried to say something, but Catelyn stopped them by standing before the two to face the


    approaching man. His towering figure filled the room in an instant to the point that it felt as though the


    ceiling would crumble in his presence. His icy gaze traveled across the room and noticed toys, models,


    and books that belonged to the children.


    “Slippers,” hemanded condescendingly at Catelyn.


    Catelyn steadied her emotions and urge to retort before taking out a pair of gray slippers from the shoe


    cab and chucking them at him.
