Chapter 114 Ever since that day, no one was bold enough to mention the woman before Cedrick
However, Miles was shouting it out loud for everyone to hear.
“You guys are Big Demon’s evil servants! All you know is to bully me, detain me, snap at me, and get me grounded. Well, I want to leave this place and never come back again!”
His bushy brows crumpled together, and while everyone was distracted by what he just shouted, he sprinted toward the door again, except this time only to crash straight into a soft embrace.

Albert hoisted him. “Master Cedrick, he’s still a child. It’s normal for kids to be a little naughty. Don’t be mad at him anymore, so as not to impair your father-and-son relationship.” Cedrick said coldly, “Move along.” “Young Master Ollie, apologize to your father, quickly.” “I don’t want to!” Miles mustered all his strength, trying to get himself out of Albert’s arms. Albert was scared to hurt him and subconsciously loosened his hold on him a little.
However, Miles unexpectedly lost his balance and fell, hitting his head against the floor in the process.
His face fell immediately.
Everything was hurting… The world seemed to spin, too.
“I’m not wrong, and I’m…not apologizing! I wanna go to Mommy, Big Demon. No wonder your son doesn’t want you…!” He was on all fours while he muttered to himself, his voice slowly faltering. Cedrick’s expression darkened even more as he strode forward in his shiny leather shoes. He wanted to catch Miles with his bare hands.
The ‘discipline cane’ was here, too. It was a baton as thick as an adult’s wrist, which was painful to be beaten with. Even though Cedrick always said he wanted to discipline Ollie, he had never used the discipline cane before. It was mostly only grounding him, making him reflect upon his mistakes. Albert was appalled at the sight. He quickly crouched to protect Miles in his arms, all while he pleaded with Cedrick to spare Miles.
“Master Cedrick, Young Master Ollie was too shocked that he blabbered nonsense! H-He doesn’t have a mother and couldn’t find her, after all. He’s only a child, and he can’t bear disciplinary actions.”
“Move along, Albert, unless you want me to discipline you, too.” Cedrick stood in the same spot and was visibly hostile.

Albert hugged Miles tightly, his eyes reddening as he did. “I’d like to get punished on Young Master Ollie’s behalf. “It was my fault. I hadn’t been watching him closely enough and let him have the chance to climb the tree. It was also my fault to not have consoled him, to let him have the chance to talk back…”
Cedrick gripped the baton in his hands firmly. “I’m asking you one more time: are you moving along?”
“…”
Albert was about to say something when he felt the tiny hand that was holding the hem of his shirt suddenly letting go. Trembling, Albert held his head down to take a look at Miles…whose eyes were closed. His tiny body was curled up, making a pitiful sight. Albert’s heart skipped a beat as he exclaimed, alerting Cedrick, “Young Master Ollie has fainted!”
Cedrick looked at Miles, and he saw tear stains on his face-his face that always rebelled against him.
Cedrick’s temples pulsed as concern bubbled within him. In the end, he threw the cane away and strode forward to pick up Miles. “Get the doctor.” Ollie was a premature baby, which meant he was generally weaker than children his age. Cedrick even arranged for a professional nutritionist to formulate his milk when he was an infant, but as Ollie grew up, he did not like using a milk bottle anymore. The group escorted Cedrick and Ollie back into the hall. Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Catelyn, who was busy preparing lunch, felt a sudden piercing pain in her heart. She supported her body with one hand against the sink, while her other hand grabbed at her chest. It felt as though a thousand needles stabbed into her heart.
