Chapter 415 Catelyn heaved a deep sigh of relief.
Ollie had changed his mind and decided to leave with them!
Catelyn did not press for a reason. All she wanted was to leave the hotel immediately.
Miles, on the other hand, should be alright. After all, he was a smart boy. They should make haste and
escape before they could think of a way to get him later on. After all, they could not afford to wait for
Cedrick to regain his senses and catch on to them.
What Catelyn did not expect was to stumble upon David, waiting for her at the entrance. Catelyn
wanted to ignore him as she grabbed Ollie’s head and strode forward. David stood before her and
asked, “Don’t you want to know where Miles is?”
Catelyn stopped and looked at him.
David then made a gesture to his henchman, who then went across the street to a van and carried a
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtboy out of it.
The boy seemed to be sound asleep in his arms, but his face seemed to be faintly twitching.
It was Miles!
“Miles? Miles, wake up!” Catelyn began to panic, her eyes reddening with tears as she gently patted
Miles’ cheeks.
Alas, Miles showed no signs of waking up.
Catelyn took her son into her arms and demanded, “What did you do to Miles?!”
Without waiting for David to explain himself, Winnie said to her, “You should be thanking Nine, Catelyn.
After all, Jamie would’ve killed your son had it not been for him.”
“J… Jamie?”
What did this have to do with Jamie?
Catelyn was confused, but she knew anything involving him was bad news.
Even though she hated the fact that David had used her, him rescuing Miles more than once was an
indisputable fact.
“Thank you, Nine.”
David looked into Catelyn’s tear-filled eyes.
It was the look of a mother who worried for her child.
It was also a look of gratitude toward him.
David pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses. The sunlight shone through the strands of hair on his
forehead, casting a shadow on his face.
“It’s not easy to hear a ‘thank you’ from you. You’re welcome.”
David then looked at the boy standing next to Catelyn.
Ollie was still wearing a hoodie, face mask, and sunglasses. It was hard not to spot him, but he insisted
on keeping his mask on.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDavid crouched before him, and his lips curved into a gentle smile. “Little Ollie, have you decided to
leave with your Mommy?” Ollie looked up at Catelyn as if asking her how he knew of his identity. His
lips remained pursed, not answering David.
David was used to the quiet, introverted Ollie. After all, he was Cedrick’s enemy for quite some time
already, so he was not too familiar with Ollie.
Moreover, the child would only ever show his softer side to his family. With those outside of this circle,
he would revert to his cold, defensive self.
David got up and said to Catelyn, “I’ve arranged for you to be sent to the airport.” “Why?” blurted
Catelyn. “Why did you save Miles and…also help us in leaving?”
David put one hand into his pocket, bathing under the afternoon sun. His glasses somehow softened
the sharpness in his gaze, albeit only a little, as he patted Ollie’s head with a gentle smile on his face.
“I’ve told you before that we share one interest. Helping you in taking Ced’s son from him is something
I’ll be proud of.”
