    Chapter 468


    “What do you mean?” asked Catelyn.


    Cedrick gave her an ambiguous expression and coldly replied, “You ran out of the VSA Company


    building all mopey. Did someone bully you?”


    She knew it. Cedrick had Eason look out for her!


    “The grass isn’t greener on the other side. Those who look down on Amaricans will pay for it,” said


    Catelyn.


    Cedrick lowered his face while listening to her. “I’m here now,” he said.


    He meant that he could help her out.

    However, Catelyn did not seem to understand what he meant and instead asked, “Didn’t you say that


    you were going away for a week?”


    “Those two boys didn’t want to see me, so I had toe back early,” said Cedrick after a moment of


    silence.


    Catelyn snorted. She tilted her head and pretended to sleep.


    Cedrick had an urge to shake her awake, but when his eyes swept across theyer of faint bruises


    under the corner of her eyes, he stopped.


    A trace of self-humiliation rose in Cedrick’s heart.


    When did he be so paranoid about losing her?


    Sure enough, Miles and Ollie were shocked to see Cedrick already back. Miles even showed his


    signature look of disgust.


    “Didn’t Big Demon say that he’d be gone for a week? Why is he back so soon?” said Miles, clearly


    bitter that Cedrick returned so early.


    Although he despised Cedrick, he knew the situation clearly.


    If Cedrick had awsuit going on against his mother, he and his brother would have to return to Mason


    Estate.


    Catelyn changed into a pair of women’s slippers at the entrance and exined to Miles, “He missed


    you so much that he decided toe back earlier. He also bought you a gift! Are you excited?”


    “No!” grunted Miles, his face contorting in disdain.


    Ollie pursed his lips, equally as reluctant to see Cedrick back so soon.


    In the past, when he was celebrating his birthday, Cedrick would ask Uncle Charles to choose some


    cool toy models for him.


    Otherwise, he would also give him some books.


    Ollie could already guess what the gift was.


    Catelyn was speechless. Why were the boys so disrespectful?


    Cedrick was just as upset upon noticing Miles and Ollie behaving so indifferently.


    “I’ve ordered two little ponies from Royal Turf Club. If you don’t want them, I’ll return them,” he said.


    “Little ponies?” Gone was the look of disgust on Miles’ face, reced by a bright expression instead.


    Ollie was just as surprised. “How old are the ponies? Can we ride them already?”


    Cedrick put one hand in his pocket and nced at the shoe cab. He had not bought his slippers


    yet, so he simply walked in without changing his shoes.


    “Big Demon dirtied the floor!” eximed Miles.


    “It’s expensive to keep two ponies. Let’s return them,” said Cedrick.


    “…can help Big Kitty mop the floorter,” came Miles’ feeble response as he scratched his ear.


    He remembered the oil painting he once saw in Mason Estate. It was a painting of Ollie in a knight’s


    attire, sitting on a pony, looking all too majestic.


    Miles, too, wished to have an oil painting of himself like that.


    However, he refused to admit that Cedrick had swayed him!


    Seeing that Miles had given in, Ollie looked at Cedrick with his clear eyes. “Mommy has a pair ofrge


    slippers. Do you want to wear them?”


    The corners of Catelyn’s eyes twitched. How could Cedrick wear her slippers?
