Chapter 251

 

Janice had not seen Ollie for a long time, so she brought him to Nandose Villa for a two days trip.

It was about seven to eight in the evening, which were peak hours for traffic and pedestrians in the fast-paced Sapphire City.

Catelyn and Cedrick were sitting at a restaurant.

"What were you doing in the washroom with the boy?" Cedrick asked in a serious tone.

Catelyn felt her nerve ticking upon hearing that question. She planned to have a quick meal and send Miles home, but he was smart enough to get a cab by himself. He should be arriving at home already.

Catelyn felt empty without her two sons with her.

"What else could we be doing? I was sad to have said goodbye to Master Ollie after spending a whole weekend with him," answered Catelyn, faking casualness.

Cedrick did not buy her answer. He squinted at her dubiously and said, "Do you want to tell me the truth, or should I look for the truth myself?"

"No!" Catelyn cut him off.

"If you don't want me to look for the truth, be honest with me."

Catelyn bit her lip and paused for a brief moment before asking, " Master Ollie told me, in his words, that he's a motherless b*stard child, and my heart ached for all the pain he's endured all these years. Cedrick, can you please tell me why Ollie doesn't have a mother?"

The air was still for a few seconds. Cedrick's lips pursed into a thin, straight line. His tenderness from earlier had vanished.
