Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss! -
Chapter 552 Cold War
Masson, on the other end of the phone, was stunned. He seemed frozen, and there was no sound at all.
Sadie rubbed her temples in distress and said hurriedly, "Thank you, Masson. I have to go now. We'll be in touch when we have time." With that, she hung up.
Sadie looked up at Micah, her heart pounding, and explained anxiously, "You heard it too. Masson called to talk about Arianna's wedding, nothing else."
"Yeah, I heard it," Micah replied before handing her the phone and heading into the bathroom.
Sadie was a bit unsettled by Micah's calm demeanor. Was he trying to suppress his temper only to explode in anger after his shower? Or was he silently planning to deal with Masson? While lost in thought, Brenda's voice echoed through the door with a gentle knock. "Miss, are you awake? The kids are calling you and Micah to have breakfast together."
"We'll be down in a moment," Sadie quickly responded.
"Alright, I'll prepare your things," Brenda said and left.
Sadie walked into the bathroom barefoot. Micah was taking a shower.
Sadie cautiously said, "Micah, the kids are waiting for us to have breakfast."
"Yeah," Micah responded.
Sadie didn't dare to speak further. She washed up at the sink and did a quick skincare routine.
After a while, Micah walked out of the shower room, wrapped in a towel and drying his hair as he walked. He didn't spare a glance for Sadie, nor did he show any sign of anger.
Sadie watched Micah's back in the mirror and felt uneasy. Was he changing his strategy? No more temper tantrums, just cold war?
"I'm going downstairs first," Micah said and went straight down.
"Wait... I..."
Before Sadie could finish saying "I," Micah had already left.
Sadie felt deeply disappointed and couldn't understand what she had done wrong. She had only mentioned her father briefly, and Micah had gotten upset. After she answered Mason's phone call, Micah started giving her the silent treatment. In the end, whether things were good or bad, it was all up to him. Sadie could only bear it.
Sadie sighed, changed her clothes, and went downstairs.
As she walked on the spiral staircase, she heard cheerful voices coming from the dining room downstairs.
"Daddy, Daddy, this is so delicious!"
Mia was using her chubby little hands to feed Micah a coffee-flavored toast.
Micah took a bite of the coffee toast and nodded. "Hmm, it's delicious."
Actually, this was the first time he had eaten these desserts. His diet changed after the kids moved in.
"Daddy, try this." Nathan handed Micah a croissant. "Brenda made it herself."
Micah ate the croissant and nodded. "Not bad."
"Alright, don't bother Daddy anymore. Eat your breakfast quickly." Noah educated his younger siblings while silently placing a piece of fruit on Micah's plate. Micah rubbed Noah's clever little head and continued eating.
Upon seeing this scene, Sadie's lips curled up. The children had fully accepted Micah and enjoyed being around him. How wonderful!
"Miss, come and have breakfast. The milk is getting cold. I'll get you a new cup," Brenda beckoned.
"Thank you, Brenda." Sadie came downstairs and sat in her usual seat.
"Good morning, Mommy!"
"Good morning, Mommy!"
"Why do your eyes look swollen, Mommy? Did you not sleep well last night?"
"A little bit." Sadie sneezed. "And you? Did you sleep well?"
"Good!" the three children replied in unison.
"Daddy teaches us every night. After class, we're tired and quickly fall asleep." Nathan now admired Micah.
"Me too," Noah said, regarding Micah as his idol. "Daddy has taught me a lot. He's taking me to the office today, too."
"You're taking the kids to the office?" Sadie looked at Micah in surprise. "Really?"
