Our Billion-Worth Twins by Velvet Antler novel Chapter 91

Chapter 91 Although Miles had accepted Ollie’s proposal to swap identities, it did not mean he accepted Cedrick. He still held a grudge against the man for locking him up in a room.

Cedrick’s brows twitched as he scanned the child’s face before saying in a cold voice, “You’ve always been a picky eater, so your food has been prepared specifically by the chef Albert hired. Will you be able to eat the food that I don’t like?”

Miles clung to Catelyn’s leg as his jewel-like eyes glimmered. “A man who lacks emotions like you will never understand that food tastes better in the company of a pretty woman.” It was the first time ever that Cedrick was rendered speechless by his son, and he wondered whether his son truly knew the meaning of what he had just said. “Alright, stop it, both of you.” Catelyn did not wish to see the two arguing over a meal and squatted to look Miles in the eye. “Ollie, didn’t your dad help us just now?” Although he was reluctant to admit it, Miles nodded before arguing weakly, “I would’ve been able to protect you just fine if he didn’t show up.”

“Yes, I believe you, but…your father still helped us out. Besides, he’s the one who pays me, so it’s normal that I should treat him to a meal. Can you be a bit more generous?” Catelyn comforted the child patiently. “Just think of it as a small request from me.” The fact that Catelyn mentioned Cedrick helped them’ pleased Miles because it meant that Catelyn and him were on the same side.

Miles jutted his rear and said to Cedrick impatiently, “Alright, then, I’ll let you eat with us.”

Cedrick did not think he needed permission from his son for a meal.

Catelyn did not want to calm the boy, only to see his father scowling. Thus, she offered Cedrick a smile. “Master Cedrick, Ollie is just a child that’s not even four-year-old yet, so just let him be. Besides, didn’t you say that you were hungry? Let’s go. There’s a Mexicaean restaurant, and the food there is awesome. Can you two eat spicy food?” Cedrick scowled and glanced at the boy, but before he could say anything, the boy leaped giddily as he exclaimed, “Yay, I love Mexicaean!”

“Really?” Catelyn was surprised. “My son likes Mexicaean food, too. He’d always complain that it’s not spicy enough, though, and this restaurant is by far the most authentic one.”
