Our Billion-Worth Twins by Velvet Antler
Chapter 406

Chapter 406 It was Miles, eyes reddening with tears as he shot Cedrick a fiery glare.

Despite that, a vague smirk was seen on his face.

It was a mix of love and hate. Catelyn's heart tightened. "M-Ollie?" "Mommy..." Miles ran straight into Catelyn's arms, his face glued onto her neck, his eyes filled with tears. "I'm sorry for not protecting you." Miles was furious when he witnessed how Cedrick, the demon that he was, bullied his mother. However, he was small and weak, and he could not possibly go up against Big Demon. Catelyn, not having the energy to mind how the boy addressed her in front of Cedrick, squatted and embraced her son.

"It's okay, I'm fine. I really am..."

"I did avenge you," muttered Miles ominously. "I turned on the microphone backstage earlier, and everyone in the hotel will be able to hear how Big Demon bullied you. They'll never believe his words ever again. He's a bad guy!"

Catelyn did not process it at first and wanted to reassure him how everything was fine, but when she finally processed his words..

She froze in shock

"What...did you say you did?" Miles wiped his tears and said, "I want everyone to know that Big Demon is a bad guy!"

The air froze in an instant.

Catelyn could see the cold flames forming on Cedrick's already bluish-gray face. He looked like a demon from hell as his eyes glued on Miles angrily. His phone rang at that moment, an incoming call from Eason.

Cedrick accepted the call, and

"Master Cedrick, the microphone backstage was switched on, and everyone in the hotel heard your conversation with Miss Catelyn! Everyone is talking about how you used Miss Catelyn and her son as your scapegoat.

"The Clarks are furious, and they want to talk to you-" Cedrick's grip on his phone tightened. He threw his phone without waiting for Eason to finish. The phone fell to the floor and bounced back up in the air. Catelyn pulled Miles toward her instinctively.

Cedrick then turned and looked at the pair on the floor.

More accurately, at the child in Catelyn's arms.

He had just used Catelyn and Miles as a reason to cancel the wedding..and 'ollie' was able to burst that bubble of lies to everyone!

What a joke. His son betrayed him in front of everyone for a mere outsider? 'Mommy'? What right did Catelyn have to be his mother? Did his son naively think that Catelyn would be his mother after staying in Mason Estate for just a couple of days? Cedrick's entire being felt as though it was set ablaze as he inched slowly toward the pair, as though about to engulf them both with his rage. Catelyn was horror-stricker as she shivered uncontrollably. She had no idea what Cedrick would do to her son...

She pulled Miles behind her and got up to face Cedrick. "Cedrick Mason, the young master didn't do it on purpose-calm down. I can still be your scapegoat; just tell everyone that we just had a quarrel and that your words were just spouted out of anger." "F*ck off!" Cedrick shoved Catelyn to the side.

Catelyn was already out of breath and had no energy to fight back at all. Thus, she fell against the corner of a table and winced in pain.

"Mommy!" Miles was even more infuriated now that he saw Catelyn hurt right in front of him.
