Chapter 592
"How fun do you think it is to be locked in this bird cage?" Miles pouted.
'"Bird cage'?" sputtered Uncle Ford in shock.
"Wait, no. A bird cage has a round dome. This place is rectangular, so it's more like a coffin."
The corner of Grandpa Mason's mouth twitched when he heard Miles' words.
Mason Chateau was designed by multiple world-famous architects, yet to Miles, it was a coffin! He once again came to the conclusion that Catelyn was not suitable to be trusted with the twins' education.
Ollie noticed that Grandpa Mason was about to explode and set his spoon down elegantly before saying in all seriousness, "Grandpa Mason, Father is back now, and we miss him. If you enjoy our company so much, we can come to visit from time to time."
Grandpa Mason slammed his spoon onto the table, and the wrinkles on his face deepened in fury. "Who'd enjoy your company? That antique vase in my study room cost me three billion, and you just broke it into pieces! without you two, I might just be able to live for a few more years!"
"Why won't you send US away, then?" Miles batted his beautiful eyes at him.
"Once your father is here, you're to leave right away!"
Just then, a guard came into the dining room. "Elder Mason, Master Cedrick is here."
Miles beamed and turned to look at Grandpa Mason smugly. He did not say a word but was clearly telling him that since Cedrick had arrived, it was time Grandpa Mason let them go.
Grandpa became increasingly annoyed and frustrated. His eyes rolled back, and Uncle Ford immediately helped him up while shouting at the servants, "Call the doctor! Elder Mason's blood pressure is up!"
A group of people hurried over to carry Grandpa Mason to the couch in the living room while Miles and Ollie went to welcome Cedrick at the door. They had never been more pleased to see Cedrick.
Cedrick was shocked to see the two of them running toward him enthusiastically.
Alex covered his mouth and stifled his chuckle. "Looks like the young masters really miss you, Master Cedrick."
"Father, have you come to take US home?" Ollie pursed his lips nervously and he gazed up at Cedrick.
Miles was still too proud to say anything, but he kept glancing at Cedrick as well.
Cedrick crouched down to pick ollie up. "I'll take you back to Mason Mansion after dinner." He noticed that ollie had gained some weight and took it as a sign that he wasn't mistreated.
"I want to go back as well!" Miles shouted. "I miss my mom. I want to take a bath and sleep with Mommy..."
Cedrickwas about to agree but changed his mind and said, "You're staying here with Grandpa Mason so he won't feel alone."
"No!" Miles tugged at Cedrick's trousers to stop him from walking away. "I want to go home!"
