    He narrowed his eyes dangerously when she failed to respond right away. “You don’t agree?”


    “No, it’s just that.”


    “Make the call, then!” interjected Cedrick as he handed her a ck phone. “George’s number is here.


    Call him, exin, and I’ll forget that this has ever happened. I won’t fight you for custody over the


    children.”


    Catelyn’s mind was tangled in a mess. After all, she was neither engaged to George nor pregnant, but


    she was not sure how she could exin it to him. At the same time, she was furious at Cedrick’s tone


    as he sounded as though he was being generous.


    The situation escted, and Catelyn did not ept the phone. “Cedrick, 14”


    “Mom, I’m hungry,” Miles’ sweet voice suddenly rang from the children’s room.


    Catelyn stilled.


    Both Miles and Ollie ran out of their bedroom cheerfully with a book they liked in hand.


    Seeing as the books they were holding were brought from Mason Estate, it was clear that the two had


    been unpacking.


    The two noticed that Catelyn and Cedrick were at a stand-off as soon as they came into the living


    room. When they spotted the phone that Cedrick was holding out to Catelyn, their eyes glittered warily.


    In the end, Catelyn returned to the kitchen to cook without saying anything but telling the children to


    stay with Cedrick. Cedrick’s grip around the phone tightened as he shot a furious re at Miles for


    interrupting them.


    Miles knew that Cedrick was angry at him…but he was not intimidated at all. After all, he had already


    challenged Cedrick countless times back in Mason Estate.

    “What are you looking at? You can stare all you want, but I’m still better-looking than you.” He made a


    face toward Cedrick before going back to his technology-based book on the dining table.


    Ollie, on the other hand, did not know what to say to Cedrick, so he simply ignored him altogether and


    went over to the dining table to read with Miles,


    It was quiet for a while with nothing but the sound of Catelyn cooking from the kitchen.


    Sometimeter, as the two werepletely absorbed into their books, a shadow loomed over them.


    It was nighttime, and the light over their heads was bright, so Cedrick’s shadow had stretched to the


    point that it loomed over the two of them entirely.


    Ollie snapped his head up and saw Cedrick had walked over and was staring at their books. “Can you


    understand the books?” he asked in a low voice.


    “…” Miles and Ollie decided to ignore him.


    Cedrick neglected the frustration burning within him and searched for patience.


    He pulled the chair next to Miles back to take his seat when all of a sudden, Miles suddenly pointed at


    the chair and shouted, “That’s Uncle George’s seat! You can’t sit on that!”


    ‘George’s seat?’ Cedrick sneered. ‘He has slippers of his own in this ce and even a special seat?’


    He snarled and got up, purposely knocking the chair onto the ground, which dropped with a deafening


    m.


    “What happened?” Catelyn hurried out of the kitchen, rmed by the noise.


    Cedrick lifted the chair and deadpanned, “The legs of the chair are crooked. Let me get someone to fix


    it for you.”


    With that, he dragged the chair toward the door before Catelyn and threw it away.N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
