Chapter 92 Despite that, ‘Ollie’ refused to remove his mask and held onto it instead. “I have pimples on my face, so I don’t look handsome right now. I can’t show my face-to Aunty Catelyn, or it’s
going to destroy my perfect impression on her.” “I know you’re a handsome little guy just looking at your dad. It won’t affect your impression of me. How are you going to eat with your mask on?” Catelyn tried to convince him, but ‘ollie !, who was often quite obedient, protested and ran to hide before Cedrick with his plate in his hands.
He sat and batted his eyelashes. “I’m still not showing you.”
If his lies were exposed, Miles knew it would not end well for him. He had kicked Terry and called Cedrick names, after all, and he would suffer for these if they realized that he was not Ollie. Most importantly, he had not been to school for days, and Ollie was the one going in his place; his mother would surely be furious if she found out. She might even send him off to a boarding school, so he had to continue this charade no matter what Catelyn gave up when she realized he was not caving in.
Cedrick watched as the boy lifted his mask to his nose, showing only his mouth to eat, and felt annoyed. His brows twitched as he reached out to take Ollie’s mask off, when suddenly

Ollie’s spoon dropped to the floor and he swiftly bent to pick it up, causing Cedrick’s hand to

When Miles poked his head out of the table and saw Cedrick’s hand, he pouted warily. “Big Demon, what are you trying to do?”.
“I said that I don’t look handsome with pimples! Are you trying to destroy my relationship with Aunty Catelyn so that you can take the opportunity to pursue her instead?” “Shut up,” Cedrick barked with a

The boy’s mouth had turned pink and he kept poking his tongue out, but he did not stop putting food onto his plate. It was apparent to anyone that he truly liked spicy food. “Master Cedrick, why aren’t you eating? Is the food not to your liking?” Catelyn asked. In comparison to Ollie, Cedrick appeared restrained and was slow to eat.
“It’s alright.” Cedrick took a spoonful of stew. Though it was not supposed to be spicy, the special sauce made by the restaurant still gave it a hint of spiciness, so he paused as soon as he tasted the spices. “How does it taste? Is it good?” Catelyn held a spoon with her right hand and lifted her chin
slightly.
Because of how spicy the dishes were, there was a pink blush on her porcelain skin. Her doe like eyes looked at him intently, and it was like the entire galaxy was hidden within those eyes. Cedrick swallowed the stew and suddenly realized that his son had been right about how food tasted better in the company of a beautiful woman. “It’s not bad,” he commented casually. “Great. Eat up, then. I should’ve thanked you for sending me to the hospital that day as well. You’ve already left by the time I woke up the next day, though, so take this meal as my way of saying thanks for helping me out that time, too.”
