Our Billion-Worth Twins

Chapter 55

Startled, Catelyn quickly retrieved her hand. Albert walked toward them with a bouquet of red roses, his expression stoic as he dragged her away from the boy defensively. “This is the young master of the Mason family!”

With her wrist starting to hurt, Catelyn freed herself from Albert’s grip. Her cheeks flushed red as she sheepishly apologized, “I’m so sorry, I got the wrong person. My apologies.”

The boy heard the commotion and turned around, his eyes twinkling in anticipation when he noticed that Catelyn had arrived. “Aunty Catelyn!”

Catelyn was baffled. That voice sounded just like her son’s, but…

When she saw his face, her shoulders dropped.

The boy in front of her was covered from head to toe.

His hoodie covered his forehead and the outline of his face, while his eyes hid behind a pair of sunglasses and the lower half of his face was concealed by a face mask.

The only bare skin that was not concealed was the area under his eyes. Even his ears were covered by the hoodie! From NôvelDrama.Org.

“Miss Clark, the young master doesn’t like to be touched by people,” said Albert.

Ollie hopped down from the chair and reached out to Catelyn immediately. He pointed at the seat he had sat on and greeted, “You’re here, Aunty Catelyn! Ollie has been waiting for you. Come, sit.”

Albert was at a loss of words.

What happened to the cold, stoic little boy?

Catelyn sat hesitantly. She scanned Ollie from head to toe and asked, “Have we met?”

“No,” answered the young master sweetly. Even though his face was barely visible, his voice alone was adorable enough. “I’ve seen your pictures on my laptop, and you look so beautiful, even more so when you smile. You should smile more.”

Catelyn felt warmth spreading through her heart upon receiving a compliment, though she could not entirely shake off the doubt that gnawed on her. “Why are you wearing a mask and sunglasses? Let me take them off for you; they don’t look comfortable at all.”

She wanted to see what the boy looked like. He looked and sounded too much like her son.

With that, Catelyn reached out, wanting to take the sunglasses and mask off of Ollie, but he dodged her hands and quickly ran away, leaving Catelyn’s hands hanging mid-air.

Ollie ran and hid behind Albert, peeking from behind the butler’s legs.

“Mister Albert said that there are strangers out there with bad intentions and that it’s better for me not to show my face. Also, I have a slight cold, so I should wear my mask so I don’t spread the flu.”

Albert nodded at this and added with a protective tone, “The young master had just come down from a fever, so it’s better for him to keep warm.”

Catelyn had no other choice but to drop it. It would seem suspicious if she persisted. The boy then took the bouquet of red roses that hid half of his small frame from Albert’s hands and wobbled toward Catelyn, handing her the bouquet. “Aunty Catelyn, I got this from the flower shop earlier. Thank you for designing my mansion.”

Catelyn was afraid he might fall from the way he was running. Ollie stood in front of Catelyn, his tiny head tilted slightly as he stared into her eyes. His eyes seemed to keep the night stars as they twinkled in his eyes.

Catelyn accepted the flowers and sniffed the petals. “Thank you, Young Master. I’ll do my best in completing my mission-achoo!”
