Chapter 108
Maia got someone to bring her a bowl of pasta sprinkled with parmesan cheese. It looked
delectable.
Teldble.
Maia was determined to be a good wife and mother in the eyes of Cedrick. “Little Ollie, let me feed you,
okay?” she said to Miles, who was still masquerading as Ollie. “Alright. Thank you, Aunty Maia,” he
replied to her with a smile, revealing two rows of neat white teeth. Little did she know of his devilish plans
hidden behind his smile.
The overjoyed Maia took the bowl and sat at the boy’s bedside. Gently, she scooped some pasta and
brought it to the corner of Miles’ mouth.
Suddenly, Miles got agitated and hit the spoon with a wave of his hand, in turn smearing the spoonful of
pasta on Maia. Before she had a chance to react, Miles quickly covered his mouth. His big eyes flickered
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtas he exclaimed, “It’s so hot! Do you want my mouth to be scalded?” Cedrick was standing aside the
whole time, the atmosphere suddenly became tense. Maia apologized repeatedly and wiped the corner
of Miles’ mouth with a wet towel. “I’m sorry, I didn’t do it on purpose. I’ll make sure the food is cooled
before I feed you in the next round, alright? Does it still hurt?” Miles stuck out his tongue while
continuously fanning himself. “Does it hurt’? You’ll know if you get scalded yourself,” he said.
“I didn’t mean it, honest…” Maia smiled awkwardly, but her eyes flashed with impatience. She hated
dealing with little brats like him, yet she had to do her best to please him!
Maia scooped another spoonful of pasta and placed it in front of her lips. She then gently blew on it to
cool the temperature.
Miles leaned closed and pointed at the spoon with disgust. “No, your saliva is all over my meal. I don’t
want to eat it,” he scoffed. “No, I didn’t. I’m just blowing it cold for you…” muttered Maia as she
subconsciously covered her mouth.
It had only been half a month, and it seemed that she already had a lot of difficulties dealing with Ollie.
He has been a lot more talkative lately, and at this moment, he was even taunting her publicly!
Did he not used to be much more respectful to her in the past?
“You don’t know how to take care of children at all! How can you be anyone’s stepmother?” Miles
continued to taunt Maia, “You’re not as good as Aunty Catelyn. She’s gentle, sensible, kind, and
generous. She’d cook for me when I’m hungry, and warm me up with clothes when it’s cold.”
The expression on Maia’s face started to crack inch by inch.
“Aunty Catelyn?”
“Yes! She’s the designer for my villa,” said Miles. “We lived together before, and she was very kind to me.
Aunty Maia, you’re not as good as her. You have to be better than this!”
Maia had never seen the boy praise a woman so much!
She turned and looked at Cedrick in disbelief.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, Cedrick merely made an apathetic remark, saying, “You look like a mess. I don’t have any
clothes for you here, so I’ll get someone to take you back to the Clarks.”
Maia was livid at this point. Would Cedrick not even let her clean up in the premises? Although she was
his fiancee, he had never allowed her to stay overnight at the Mason Estate! “Then, I’ll see you and Ollie
another time.” muttered Maia as she put down the spoon and bowl and the table. Albert took the
opportunity and said to her, “I’ll send you out, Miss Maia.” Maia did not move, however, as she remained
rooted and stared at Cedrick.
She wanted him to send her out, not this old man, but Cedrick did not even bat ai
e at her!
Maia thus stomped and left bitterly. As soon as she got into the car, the driver of the Clark family noticed
Maia’s messy appearance, and there were even some tea leaves stuck in the hair on her forehead. The
driver could not hold back and snickered silently, much to Maia’s chagrin.
“What are you laughing at?” “I’m sorry, Miss Clark, I wasn’t laughing. The tip of my nose was itchy just
now, so I couldn’t help but let out a little sneeze,” said the driver immediately, feeling guilty. “Do you think
I’m blind?” scoffed Maia.
