Our Billion-Worth Twins

Chapter 225

It was Catelyn’s first time at the Mason Estate.

Back then when she came to visit Ollie, she had only sat outside for a moment and left immediately. She did not have the intention to stay at the time, let alone pay attention to the details of the place. The house had a luxurious Europaen-style decoration with red walls and bricks, looking very sentimental. The landscape garden was filled with different kinds of plants, and the amount of greenery here was just astounding. “Aunt Catelyn!” Before Albert could even finish his words, a small figure suddenly appeared in front of him. Miles’ short legs rapidly stomped the ground as he raced toward Catelyn. He instantly clung to her legs the second he got to her as if afraid she would run away. He raised his little face and jumped happily. “Oh, Aunt Catelyn, you’re finally here! I miss you so much! Do you miss me?” Catelyn was equally excited to see him. She picked him up and kissed his tender little cheek. “Are you here to take me home?” Miles blinked hopefully.

Catelyn immediately made a silent gesture to him. She looked around as she lowered her voice. Luckily, Albert did not get too close to them, and he probably did not hear what Miles just said.

She whispered to Miles, “Don’t forget what I said to you on the phone. You should treat me as your employee, and don’t mention anything else about me taking you home. Do you understand?”

The light of hope in Miles’ eyes gradually dissipated, and he pursed his lips. “How long do I have to pretend?”

“Shh!” Catelyn pressed her mouth with her fingers, seeing Albert was just standing nearby. “I promise to take you home as soon as possible. Will you be good?”

Miles looked at Catelyn, his eyes gleaming as he did. “I’ve always been good,” he remarked. “I brought you some biscuits and puffs,” said Catelyn. “Do you want to eat them?” “Alright,” mumbled Miles, visibly

sulking. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Cedrick returned to the Mason Estate after finishing some business. The moment he entered, however, a burst of laughter from a distance greeted him. It seemed to have come from the living room.

There, Miles had taken off his shoes and sat on the sofa, cross-legged, with a storybook on his

lap.

Catelyn, on the other hand, was sitting next to him, feeding him her freshly baked biscuits

while telling him stories in a soft tone.

“This story tells us that children aren’t supposed to tell lies. They must be honest.”

Miles chewed the biscuits in his mouth and muttered, “So it’s wrong to lie.”

“Well…” Catelyn stopped and thought for a moment.

Did she not teach him to lie and deceive Cedrick? The irony.

Catelyn appeared to be a little uncomfortable. Her tone got softer as she added, “Well, under certain circumstances, to protect yourself, it’s okay to tell a white lie every once in a while.” Miles rolled on the sofa. “Like what we’re doing now?” Catelyn coughed lightly and praised, “Smart boy.” The warm and soft female voice of Catelyn was like a small feather brushing on Miles’ heart. At this moment, Cedrick strode into the living room. Miles immediately got up from the sofa and stood in front of Catelyn, spreading out his arms and legs as if he was a hen protecting her chicks. Catelyn was baffled. “What are you doing?” “Big Demon said he wanted you to be my stepmother, but I don’t want it! I’m not going to let him take advantage of you!”

At that very moment, Catelyn felt something stinging inside her, as though something had pierced her heart.
