Chapter 593
Miles was too prideful to cry in front of Cedrick.
"Don't cry, Young Master." Unable to bear seeing Miles cry, Alex immediately crouched down and helped to wipe away his tears. "If Miss Clark finds out that you cried, she'll be heartbroken. Master Cedrick isn't going to leave you here, why don't you compromise a bit and acknowledge him as your dad?"
Miles pouted and propped his hand on his hip as he stared at Cedrick. "What do you want me to say?"
"Dad, or Father. Take your pick," said Cedrick.
If he truly went home with Ollie alone, Catelyn would be furious.
Miles grinned before drawling with his hands on his hips. "Good boy. Daddy forgives you."
"..." Cedrick's eyebrows twitched in rage.
Ollie, too, was frightened. He had never seen anyone making a fool out of Cedrick before, and the air seemed to have frozen over.
Alex could sense that Cedrick was on the brink of exploding, but luckily, Cedrick's phone rang.
It was a call from Catelyn.
Alex internally thanked the gods; the call came just in time!
Meanwhile, Grandpa Mason laid on the couch. It was not a heart attack; he simply ran out of breath.
A group of doctors surrounded him, and he could barely see Cedrick and the twins standing by the door.
They were chatting and laughing as though they did not have a care in mind for his health.
Grandpa Mason was furious. It was bad enough that his grandson would not listen to him, but his great-grandsons had to be just as bad.
If this was how they behave at such a young age, they would spin out of control completely once they grew up!
In Ocean Path Residence, Catelyn finally got to see her twins through the video call. Though Cedrick had allowed the servants to help contact the twins for her before, they had never been able to talk to their hearts' content.
Her heart throbbed when she heard their voices and tears welled up in her eyes.
She had spent the past few days in the hospital with Cedrick, but during the quiet nights, her mind would always drift off to her twins and the way they fawned over her.
The twins had lived with her for months, so she could not get used to the sudden silence. For a period of time, she would lose sleep, only to dream of them when she finally fell asleep.
"Mommy! Mommy!" Miles hopped up to grab Cedrick's phone when he heard Catelyn's voice. Unfortunately, he was too short, and all Cedrick needed to do was raise his arm where Miles could not reach.
Miles took the chance to complain to Catelyn as he sobbed," Mommy, Big Demon is bullying me again because you're not around! He says he's going to leave me here and keep me away from you!" Whimpering, he added, "I'm so unlucky... They torture me every single day!"
