Chapter 452
Catelyn’s wound looked gnarly, but it had been taken care of and was recovering speedily. With that, she was able to move around freely the next morning. However, she still could not perform rigorous movements as overly stretching the wound was bad for recovery.
Cedrick drove her and sent the boys to kindergarten.
Miles swung his legs around in the car, his eyes traveling around casually. Ollie, on the other hand, sat still.
Catelyn sat in between two boys, her hands holding theirs.
Cedrick looked at Miles’ cautious gaze toward him from the front mirror and stretched his lips into a cold smirk. “You’re the one who stole my belongings, no?”
Miles lifted his chin haughtily. “And what about it?”

“Pretty ballsy of you. As expected of my child.* Cedrick chuckled coldly.
“I haven’t acknowledged you as part of my family yet, so don’t just assume things,” Miles shot back with a frown and buried his head in Catelyn’s arms.
He shut his eyes and pretended to be asleep. It was clear that he wanted nothing to do with Cedrick at that moment.
Ollie looked at Cedrick defeatedly and sypathizingly. He pursed his tiny lips, keeping his silence.
Ollie had yet to tell Catelyn that he saw Maia coming out from his father’s bedroom in the middle of the night.
His mother’s heart would probably break into pieces if he was to tell her.
Considering that he had to maintain the current balance between his father and mother, he chose to not say anything.
It was the first time Cedrick sent his children to school, and it was also the first time their classmates and teachers saw him.
Plenty of the parents waved at Cedrick in a friendly manner. However, Cedrick’s expression was so frigid that he scared a few mothers who had wanted to greet him.

She had no idea what kind of relationship they were in at the moment, but he insisted on doing these things, and she had no say in it.

Unlike the jealousy and envy from before, Amy curiously asked, “That must be your sponsor, the man who just dropped you off, right?”
Catelyn, not expecting Amy to see her, suppressed her panic and uttered expressionlessly, “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
“Heh! Stop acting. I saw everything!”
Amy realized she was playing dumb and uttered arrogantly, “It’s George, isn’t it? How else were you able to join the company?
“I have an idea. I’m pretty keen on his muscular body, and if you introduce him to me, I promise to stop bullying you!”
Catelyn’s mouth twitched. “Don’t you look down on foreigners?” she scoffed.
