Our Billion-Worth Twins by Velvet AChapter 26 In the arms of the bodyguard, Ollie spotted Catelyn from the corner of his eyes as she stood quietly next to Cedrick. She looked beautiful as she ever did. His often expressionless face lit up in excitement. He opened his mouth and struggled to jump out of the bodyguard’s arms as though he was about to shout, but the moment his hand landed on the collar of the bodyguard’s suit, he stopped. Ollie could not run to Catelyn. If she recognized him, she would realize that he had been lying to her. Within a blink of an eye, the bodyguard stepped out of the shadow under the tree and into the light with Ollie in his arms. Ollie appeared to be frightened as he leaned into the bodyguard’s chest obediently with his face buried; he did not lift his head the entire time to avoid anyone seeing his face. Despite that, Catelyn still felt like he resembled her son. Before she could say anything, the man beside her confronted the child coldly, “And what fueled you with the tenacity to lie to the doctor, telling them that Albert is a kidnapper and running away afterward?” Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Catelyn choked on the words she was about to say and thought to herself, ‘This isn’t my son. My son has been a good boy in school, so why would he be in the hospital? Maybe all kids look the same from behind…. In a muffled voice, Ollie muttered, “I’m sorry.” “I don’t want to hear any more of your useless apologies. Lift your face up,” Cedrick interrupted his apology mercilessly in a low voice. Ollie’s pale, little hand grabbed tightly onto the bodyguard’s collar until it creased, yet he refused to move, “I said lift your head up!” Cedrick’s tone intensified and left no room for questioning; his voice was so cold that each word sounded as though they were frost-cold. Even if he was not commanding Catelyn, she still felt terrified. Frustrated, she walked

shout at him like this!” “I’m disciplining my son. What do you have to do about it? Scram!” When Cedrick heard that Ollie snuck out and nearly got Albert thrown into prison, he was absolutely livid and instantly came to look for his son while casting aside a few important shareholders. First, Ollie first refused to eat in the mall; then, he insulted Cedrick back at home. Cedrick realized that if he did not discipline his son for this, Ollie would think that he could do whatever he wanted without repercussions! 311 Catelyn glanced at the boy who buried his head in the bodyguard’s arms and felt strangely furious. She stood before the boy and said, “I don’t know why he ran away from home, but as a father, it’s wrong of you to shout at him like this.” Cedrick laughed angrily. “So I need you to teach me now?” “I just want to remind you that children are sensitive, and your method of disciplining him is only going to make him hate you more!” Catelyn was not sure why she felt so enraged, but nonetheless, her rampant complaint continued, “You need to understand what he’s really thinking, or he’ll simply run off again even if you manage to find him this time!” “If he runs again, I will break his legs,” interjected Cedrick, his lips pursed. Catelyn could not help but shiver at his words and felt extremely uncomfortable. At the corner of her eyes, she noticed that the young boy’s hand was tightening around the bodyguard’s collar, which meant that he was afraid. Catelyn was furious at the thought that no one in the entire Mason family would dare plead for the boy, which simply had her wondering how often Cedrick had abused his own son. The more she thought about it, the angrier she got, and her voice became sharper as she shouted, “Do you think you can just break his legs and be done with it? He’s your son, not your subordinate!”ntler Chapter 26
