Never Judge

Chapter 411 - 411



While they were having breakfast Ayanna arrived and hugged her nephew. 

"He isn't coming with us." Adrianna told Ayanna who ended up pouting at the news.

​​

"But he's so adorable, why can't he come?" Ayanna complained. "Plus mom and auntie Gracia are out, no one can take care of him here at Mountain View." Ayanna said.

"I'll be taking him to the office." Cedric announced as he finished eating his food.

"Won't that be a bother, Cedric?" Ayanna asked her older brother. "You have so many meetings in a day. You can't possibly take care of Emilio while at the office."

"Ayanna, what's with the change? You used to tell me I didn't bring my son over enough and that I could easily manage working while Emilio was around?" Cedric asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Well, that's if I'm at the office. Of course if I'm not there, so you probably can't handle it." Ayanna said as she crossed her arms on her chest.

"Mae and Dave adore Emilio, they can help me out." Cedric said with a smile. "Plus I've had all my meetings canceled so I can spend the whole day working and playing with Emilio." Cedric said with a shrug.

"Why can't we bring him sister-in-law?" Ayanna complained.

"We'll be too busy to take care of him." Adrianna said with a laugh. "Emilio, give your auntie Ayanna a hug. You and your dad need to go."

Emilio ran up  to his Auntie Ayanna and gave her a wet kiss on the cheek.

"Let's go." Cedric said as he held out his hand for his son to hold.

Emilio had always been a well disciplined child. He was well behaved on the way to R Tower, Cedric's team had made sure that the basement was clear before Cedric and Emilio got out of the car. 

Emilio quickly ran into the CEO's elevator, his bodyguard chased after him making Cedric and Leon burst into laughter.

"Remember, dad has work, so I won't be able to play with you the whole time." Cedric told his son as the elevator ascended.

"It's okay dad. Uncle Dave and Aunt Mae will be there." Emilio said with the sweetest smile.

Today Cedric made sure that anyone who didn't know about Emilio or his identity was moved from the CEO's floor to another, or given the day off. So the only people who would be there today were Dave, Mae, Ayanna's assistant, and several bodyguards.

As soon as the elevator doors opened they were greeted by Mae and Dave who were waiting for them.

"Emilio!" Mae shouted happily as she spotted the little boy exiting the elevator with his father and two bodyguards. 

"Auntie Mae!" Emilio said happily as he ran into Mae's arms.

"Hey little master." Mae said as she lifted him and spun the boy around. 

Mae and Dave were like uncles to little Emilio, he would often spend time with them when he would accompany his father to the office or when Cedric would work from his Mountain View office. Emilio loved Mae like he did his other aunties, he even thought she was as pretty as them.

As for Dave, he loved to prank and play with Dave. The young assistant was more like an older brother to him than an uncle. His uncles scolded him and were often too busy to play with him, but Dave would always make time when he was at Mountain View. Dave had even stocked one of their closets in the office with toys for Emilio to play with whenever he would come over.

"Hey buddy." Dave said as he ruffled Emilio's hair.

"Uncle Dave!" Emilio said happily. 

"Dave, Mae. Come to my office." Cedric said as he walked by past them.

When Mae placed Emilio back down he quickly ran up to his father and held Cedric's hand. Inside Cedric's office Dave and Mae had already set up a small play area for Emilio, they did this every time he visited so he quickly ran up to the spot.

"Have you cancelled all of my meetings for today?" Cedric asked his assistants as he settled himself on his desk.

"All but two sir." Dave reported.

"And why didn't you cancel them?" Cedric asked. His assistants rarely failed to do as he asked, so he knew there was a valid reason for their actions.

"Well sir, I thought it would be fine if you pushed through with Miss Camilla's meeting with you on Mor Co. She knows the little master anyway." Dave informed Cedric.

"Alright, that should be fine. Emilio is usually behaved and I'm sure he won't interrupt my meeting. What's the other meeting?" Cedric asked. 

"Mr. Alexi's assistant called to set up a meeting with you. At first we found it odd since Mr. Alexi often simply shows up here. But then the assistant insisted." Dave said with a shrug.

"That should be fine. What time is the meeting with Alexi?" Cedric asked.

"4pm sir." Dave informed him.

"Alright." Cedric said with a nod. "Miguel and Ian should be arriving shortly. I know you guys can't resist chatting with Ian whenever you guys see each other, so please keep it short. We can all go out to lunch together if he doesn't have any plans." Cedric said with a grin.

The duo smiled and nodded. Ian and Camilla were their mentors and friends, so the pair were excited to see the both of them today. 

"Ask Camilla if she would like to join us for lunch." Cedric said as the two walked out of his office.

"Hey buddy." Cedric said as he walked over to his son. "What are you working on?" Cedric asked Emilio.

"I'm improving my car!" Emilio happily said he showed his dad. Little Emilio seemed cute and innocent in front of most people, but in private he was quite mature. His sentences were quite intelligent when he spoke to his father and mother.

"Hmmm, I think I should get you a tutor." Cedric said as he watched Emilio skillfully remove parts from one car and transfer it to another.

"You will dad?" Emilio asked excitedly. 

"Yeah. But you have to promise to behave and be willing to enroll in a regular school next month." Cedric told his son.

"Yes dad! Yes!" Emilio said as he ran up and hugged Cedric by the neck.

"Now I want a kid too!" Miguel said as he entered Cedric's office.

"Uncle Mig!" Emilio said as he ran up to his uncle and hugged his leg.

"You're lucky you are this cute. If anyone called me Mig I would -" Miguel began today.

"Miguel." Cedric scolded. "Emilio is a child, don't use the language you were about to in front of him."

"Sorry Emilio." Miguel said as he picked the child up and hugged him tightly. "Wow, it looks like you've grown even taller. I miss seeing you everyday little one." Miguel said as he placed Emilio back down on the ground. 

"I miss you too Uncle Mig." Emilio said as he smiled happily at Miguel.

"Hey Emilio." Ian said as he entered the office after a while.

"Uncle Ian!" Emilio said excitedly as he looked behind Ian. 

"Sorry kid." Ian said with a laugh as he realized who Emilio was looking for. "He's with uncle Eric and Auntie Katerina."

"It's okay uncle." Ian said with a smile as he walked back to play with his toys.

"Are you sure it's okay to discuss this with Emilio around?" Miguel asked as he looked at Emilio who was focused on playing with his toys in the corner. 

"Yeah, it should be fine." Cedric said with a smile as he sat behind his desk.
