Our Billion-Worth Twins

Chapter 248

Whenever Cedrick would get upset, Miles would hide behind Catelyn.

They had a blast, and as the night progressed, Miles decided to end the day with a ride on the Ferris wheel. Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

The gondola rose toward the sky slowly and finally stopped at the highest point as though it was floating in the air.

Miles pressed his face against the glass and stared down at the scenery.

The lake was located beside the Ferris wheel, and there were a few cruise ships sailing on the water. There were waterproof lights on the edges of the shops that shone splendidly when one looked at them from higher ground, and Miles stared at them unblinkingly.

There wasn’t much space in the gondola, so it felt even more cramped when Catelyn stood up, but she wasn’t afraid. Every time she turned around, she would brush against his chin. “You seem so cautious most of the time. I didn’t expect you to be this brave. Are you not afraid of heights?”

Catelyn tip-toed and pressed her fingers against the glass window. “What’s there to be afraid of? The Ferris wheel isn’t going to collapse. Besides… Don’t you think this is about as close as you can get to the sky?” Cedrick chuckled silently at the innocent smile on her face while typing on his phone to send out a command.

Baam! Suddenly, they heard a piercing noise of the engine moving emitted from the Ferris wheel, and the entire theme park fell into complete darkness. “There’s a power outage!”

Countless people started screaming as they saw nothing but darkness before them.

The smile on Catelyn’s face disappeared, and she subconsciously reached out for Miles.

“Aunt Catelyn?” Miles was also waving his arms in the air. “I’m right here,” Catelyn consoled him while moving toward his voice. “Don’t be afraid. It’s just a power outage. We just need to wait for a bit.”

Baam!

Suddenly, she ran into a broad chest, and her nose bumped into his chin, sending a sharp pain through her head.

Before she could register what had happened, he wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her, fully embracing her. In the dark, he found the precise location of where her lips were, and he pressed his cold, thin lips against hers without a moment of hesitation.

The power went back on throughout the park five minutes later. Miles found Catelyn’s hand and grabbed onto it tightly, but he noticed her swollen lips through the dim light.

“Aunt Catelyn, why is your mouth swollen?”

Catelyn covered her mouth frantically, her eyes darting around, not knowing where to look. “Just now… Just now, during the power outage, I accidentally bumped into the glass window.” “Really? You are so clumsy.” Miles jumped up in an attempt to touch her lips. “What are you going to do without me?” Just as he stepped onto the seat and reached up to touch Catelyn, Cedrick lifted him up. Miles struggled in Cedrick’s arms to the point that his clothes lifted up and exposed his round belly. “What are you doing? Let me down.”
