Chapter 228 He was blabbering the whole morning.
Miles humphed because he actually wanted Cedrick to dislike him.
He shook his little head adorably at Catelyn. He had not cried or thrown a tantrum; instead, he simply
looked really innocent and sad about it. His big eyes blinked pitifully as he said, “The store-bought cakes
are not as tasty as the ones you make. Plus, I only had one small piece the other day… Aunt Catelyn,
please…” He was calling Catelyn repeatedly. It hit Catelyn’s soft spot, and she found it hard to turn him
down.
She would not stop at just a cake. She would pluck the stars from the sky if he wanted them.
“How about we bake some cakes in the afternoon?”

going to bake a cake for me. Aunt Catelyn is so kind, so pretty, and so talented…” Cedrick snickered,
“What a sweet talker.”
“Hmph!”
“Watch your mouth.”
“Hmph hmph hmph!” Miles was not scared. After all, the worse he could do to him was to ground him
Cedrick’s veins on his forehead bulged. With the top three buttons on his shirt loose, his icy cold
prominent facial features were lit under the warm chandelier light, creating a tense atmosphere.
Catelyn initially wanted to ignore Cedrick. However, seeing the two were about to start a fight, she had to
step in. “You are a CEO. Don’t pick a fight with a kid. Aren’t you afraid of lowering yourself to that level?”
Cedrick took a side glance at her and asked, “Why do I have a feeling that you are not here to see me
but to see Ollie?”
She was always siding with this little brat.
Catelyn’s initial intention was indeed to visit her son. She said, “I just don’t want to see the both of you
getting into a fight and wasting our quality time together.”
Miles suddenly grimaced and said, “Childish.”
Cedrick almost gave him a death stare Miles’s tiny face puffed, creating a sharp contrast with Cedrick’s
expressionless face. The atmosphere was so tense that Catelyn pulled the little one behind her. She
wondered if Cedrick was really pissed. Was this how they usually interacted? That was scary!
“He is barely four years old, and he is your son. Just take this as a good time to teach him a life
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmlesson, give him a break…” Cedrick adjusted his collar and said coldly, “You’re such a peacemaker.”
“So… We will need some flour, butter, eggs, and other ingredients. Are there more in the kitchen?”
Catelyn tried to redirect the conversation. Cedrick never cared about these things. Albert came by, failing
to hide the grin on his face. He said respectfully, “We have other ingredients, but I’m afraid we don’t have
enough flour.” Catelyn was troubled as she could not remember if there were any stores nearby… Miles
volunteered and said, “Aunt Catelyn, let’s go buy some flour!”
Big Demon would definitely not join them to run errands.
Then they would have the opportunity to run away!
“There’s a mall a stone’s throw away, I’ll drive you there.” Unexpectedly, Cedrick continued the
conversation so smoothly.
