Chapter 232 It was just an excuse, and she thought Cedrick would not agree to it. However, he only
looked at them with an incomprehensible expression and turned away.
Catelyn started baking after coming back from the mall. Miles cleaned his hands and put on a cute little
apron for a toddler. He then stood on a stool, had his sleeves rolled up, and started kneading the dough
with Catelyn.
He did not have much strength, but his movements were on point.
His hands waddled in the big mixing bowl and occasionally stroked the back of Catelyn’s hand with his
hand that was covered in flour.
Catelyn and Miles were spending quality time in the kitchen together.
Even though Cedrick was reading the newspaper in the living room, he was attentive to whatever
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthappened in the kitchen. Ollie was so happy, like they were actual mother and son. Finally, it was the
crucial step of the kneading. Catelyn was kneading the dough alone, trying to press out all of the air
bubbles in the dough.
Miles stood quietly in front of the counter, admiring her swift movements.
A man’s voice broke the harmonious silence.
“Ollie, your French teacher is here.”
Catelyn looked up from the silver loungewear and saw Cedrick leaning on the doorframe, speaking in a
deep voice. He had changed into his loungewear and looked at ease.
Miles’ brows crumpled together upon hearing that. He was assigned many classes every day. However,
he detested French class.
It was because his French teacher always looked at him flirtatiously and would purposely give him the
hardest questions and exercises.
He had never learned French before and did not have a solid foundation like Ollie did. He was always
misunderstood for being ‘lazy’.
The French teacher was here to ‘flirt’ with him again!
Catelyn heard that he was supposed to go to class, but he was covered in flour. She thought of getting
him out of the kitchen and preparing for class, then said, “Young Master Ollie, you should go for class. I
promise your cake will be ready when you are done with the class.”
“I… My back is itchy!”
Miles looked at Catelyn innocently with his round eyes. “Itchy?” Catelyn believed him, dusted her hands,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmand went forward to take a closer look.” Where? Let me see.”
Miles let Catelyn take his coat off and pointed at a few random spots on his back. “Here, here, and
here… No, my thigh is now itchy too, my face is itchy too, my whole body is itchy!” “I think your buttocks
are itchy. Get to your class now!” Cedrick saw right through his tricks and said loudly.
Miles was stunned for half a second, then squirmed in Catelyn’s chest. Catelyn had not seen Miles in a
long time and did not know about his mental battles with Cedrick all this while. She said instinctively,
“Young Master Ollie said his body is itchy. Maybe he has an allergic reaction. You don’t have to yell.”
I had never raised my voice at my own child. Who were you to do so? Cedrick pursed his lips.
Catelyn was like a protective mother tigress, protecting her little cub. Miles peaked his little head out from
behind his mother to take a look
Catelyn could not see him grimacing at Cedrick. He stuck his tongue out naughtily, then innocently
tugged at Catelyn’s dress. He grinned and said, “Aunt Catelyn, you are as gentle as I imagined my
mother would be!”
