Catelyn arranged the model she had bought for Miles to be sent and patted her son on the head. "Wait here for Mommy, and don't wander around. I need to go to the washroom.""Yes, your majesty!" Miles did not want to take off his sunglasses and simply curtsied his mother.Amused, Catelyn turned and went to the washroom, only to bump into someone around the corner."I'm sorry—!"An overwhelming scent of Grand Extrait Gardenia perfume attacked her, and because her nose happened to feel itchy at the time, she could not help but sneeze while apologizing.Though she managed to cover her mouth in time, she could not stop the splatter of her saliva. She blushed awkwardly and apologized once again, her lashes fluttering as she did.It had been so long since she smelt this perfume. Before the Clark family went bankrupt, this was her favorite because of how extravagant it was. At present, however, she preferred something more natural."What's wrong with you? Can't you see where you're goin

Catelyn never expected to run into Jamie once again after avoiding him for four years.She subconsciously tightened her arms around Miles and said, "He's my son. He has nothing to do with you at all.""Hilarious! You plotted to give birth to my son in secret, and now you have him here to take photos of me out of the blue. Who knows what you are after? Are you after money or status? Just get it over with already.""Miss Clark, am I right?" Louella stood forward, her eyes filled with motherly love as she stroked her belly gently, as though declaring her ownership. "I can give you money but probably not the position as Missus Mason. I'm also pregnant with Jamie's child, you see."She then glanced at Miles sincerely and continued, "The child is innocent, so please stop using him as a tool to hurt Jamie. We won't blame you for what happened today, but hopefully, you'll be more mindful in educating your son so that he doesn't step foot on the wrong path. As for the alimony, we'll make up

Downstairs, Catelyn took Miles's hand as they made their leave.Miles took off his sunglasses to reveal his crystal-like eyes burning with anger. "That trash is so hateful," he deadpanned. "Big Kitty, don't fall in love with him.""I don't like him to begin with.""He's definitely going to torture me if the two of you date each other." Then, Miles changed his tone and said while clinging to her leg, "For the health and safety of your baby, stay away from him, okay?""…"Catelyn was at a loss for words. Perhaps it was because Miles grew up without a father that he had always been sensitive; he even resented any man that approached Catelyn despite their age.Since they had just accidentally run into Jamie, it was natural that he would be worried about her getting back together with Jamie and neglecting him."He has no sense of responsibility and has so many mistresses. I'm far more sweet and polite than him. I have great looks and a greater personality, and I can fend off a gangst

"You were having dinner with Miss Clark, and we couldn't be too far away from you, so we didn't send anyone after Young Master. Of course, I've contacted Albert to bring him home."Cedrick looked up to find Eason's mouth twitching as though stifling his laughter. "Are you laughing at me?" asked Cedrick."No, I—""Your bonus for this month will be reduced by half."The amusement on Eason's face faded and was replaced by devastation. "Master Cedrick…""Keep talking and you'll lose all of it." Cedrick stared at him, leaving no room for questioning."…" Eason realized how easily an employee would suffer when their boss was this hard to please.Soon, their car arrived at Mason Estate as well.The lights in Mason Estate shone brightly during the night, making it appear as though it was still daytime.Under the moon, the sparkling lights on the trees made a perfect contrast that formed a unique scene.When Albert heard the sound of the car's engine turned off from the garage, he sto

Tears welled up in Miles's beautiful, dark eyes. He pursed his lips as despair filled his innocent-looking face.Had Catelyn truly abandoned him? She even stopped answering the calls…At that moment, he looked around the house he was in. It was a cage with guards, everything felt cold, and he was suddenly overwhelmed by fear.He desperately wanted to see Catelyn again and was far from wanting to remain cooped up in his place. He had to get out.He sniffled and quickly wiped away his tears.Crying was for the weak, and he had to be strong enough to protect his mother.…Catelyn had prepared breakfast and called Ollie out for the meal.The boy did so with composure, and no one could tell that he was not Miles at all. Catelyn did not think much of it and simply sent him off to the kindergarten like usual. Before leaving, she even gave him a peck, to which the boy blushed shyly.…The moment she arrived at BrightGene, she could distinctly sense that everyone was staring at her od
