Chapter 113 However, what Cedrick said next crushed Miles’ fantasy about having a gentle, loving father. “Ollie, who allowed you to climb so high up? Do you want to plummet from above and get badly injured?” The boy was utterly flabbergasted as Cedrick reprimanded him. Falling silent, the sudden admiration that Miles had for Cedrick vanished, and his eyes widened. “I was climbing up alright, but you popped into my vision halfway! That’s why I got shocked and fell.”
“So you think you’re right?” Cedrick was cold and stern. “I planned my moves clearly; you got me shocked, is all…” “Please stop talking back, Young Master Ollie,” Albert persuaded gently. “Did you forget about the time you lied about falling down from the ladder before? Master Cedrick was mad enough. It’s better for you to not make him angrier-you don’t want to get punished all at once.” Miles pouted. “I just wanted to hang the paper clovers folded by Aunty Catelyn on the tree!” “Looks like you still don’t know your error.” Cedrick looked even more stern, and said,” Albert, administer the punishment, please.”
His son was getting more and more presumptuous, Cedrick thought.
If Ollie would not be disciplined, he could have climbed up the roof and torn the house apart in no time!
‘Punishment?’ Miles did not know what that was, but he was certain that it was not something good.
He turned and tried to run away.
His legs were short, however, and one stride from Cedrick was enough to catch up with three of his. His wrist was pinned hard by Cedrick. “Let me go! Ouch! You’re hurting me, Big Demon!”
“I don’t want to stay here anymore. I wanna go to Big Kitty!” Miles, amid his panic, accidentally yelped his nickname for Catelyn. He had forgotten that he needed to address his mother as Aunty Catelyn in front of Cedrick and other people, as he had promised Ollie.
Meanwhile, Cedrick’s face sunk at what the boy had said. Ollie wanted Catelyn instead of his own home?
“A string of paper clovers, and you’re blown away?” The infuriated Cedrick subconsciously gripped Miles’ wrists even tighter, inducing more pain in Miles.
The boy’s eyelashes fluttered. Out of the blue, he ducked and bit Cedrick’s hand. NôvelDrama.Org content.
Cedrick’s face, to say the very least, was terrifying. So intimidated was Miles that he did not let go of his hand once bitten until he could taste iron in his mouth.
Cedrick let go of his hand, his face twitching in pain, and looked dangerously terrifying. Miles fell to the ground, but he rubbed his behind as he stood back up. He did not even waste a second to pant and took off on his heels, running out the door. He was like an agitated hedgehog in full-defense mode, his spikes standing on edge. He wanted to go home. This role-playing game was not fun at all! “Goodness, Master Cedrick, you’re bleeding!” “Quick, hold the boy!”
“Close the door. Don’t let Young Master Ollie escape!” The servants were shouting in chaos and flung their hands out, trying to get hold of Miles. Miles sped through the long corridor of the estate, dodging the bodyguards’ attempts to catch him. His adorable face twitched in nervousness, and his eyes were red. “Don’t stop me! I want to go home!” “This is your home!” Confused, Albert shouted, sounding concerned at the same time. “No, this isn’t. This is Big Demon’s house!” His emotions that had accumulated over the past few days imploded all at once. His lashes hung downward, and his eyes started to turn watery. “I want Mommy…”
Miles’ voice faded, and the air froze. Everyone knew that it was taboo to mention Ollie’s mother in this household. Three years ago, Ollie was left at the doorstep of Mason Estate. That incident had attracted quite the attention back then.
Cedrick had ordered a thorough investigation into who had birthed his child, but nothing came up positive.
