Our Billion-Worth Twins

Chapter 219

Chapter 219 Cedrick knew about the news. “Right. It is about time,” he said. “You’ve always been a brilliant child. I believe you can make it clear to him, but you also need to understand that your grandfather is still the head of the Mason family, and you need his approval and support if you want to take over,” said Janice.

Cedrick did not answer, just fidgeting with the teacup in his hand.

Janice pondered for a while and said, “Catelyn here is a good girl. She’s beautiful and knowledgeable, and I like her very much. However, Mai comes from a prestigious family and has a distinguished status. She has something that Kitty here doesn’t have. Do you understand this?”

What was a simple reminder for Cedrick felt like a thorn in Catelyn’s heart. Maia had something she did not have. She came from a prestigious family and had a distinguished status. Catelyn, on the other hand, was just a bankrupt lady with a child. She was useless.

Catelyn felt slight bitterness spreading in her mouth. It must have been the tea. Her crown of teeth bit down on her tongue, and the pain snapped her out of her trance.

Knowing that it was impossible to get together with Cedrick, she still went for him. After all, he was the devil who had destroyed her life! How could she have such bitter thoughts?

How crazy. “Aunt Janice.” Cedrick’s brows narrowed slightly, and his thin lips moved. “Catelyn also has something that Maia doesn’t have. It is what I want, and not what you have to offer.”

“Ceddy…” muttered Janice. “Let’s stop talking about this. It’s time for the waiter to serve the food,” said Cedrick. With that, he pressed the service bell with his slender fingers.

The jingle of the bell interrupted what Janice wanted to say next. She could only sit still and sigh silently. She could not see what Catelyn had that Maia did not. Was Cedrick just stubborn?

The waiter quickly started serving the food. It was summer at this moment, and the first few dishes served were cold dishes, accompanied by a refreshing dessert.

The cube-shaped toast was cut into small pieces and had ice cream scoops on top, mixed with butter and honey. It was a must-order dish for Janice every time she dined in this place. However, she was not in good health at the moment, so it was not advisable to eat cold food.

Janice thus moved the dessert toward Catelyn and said, “I like this very much, Kitty. Try it.” “She can’t eat it,” said Cedrick before Catelyn could even open her mouth to speak. Janice glanced blankly at Cedrick, and then at Catelyn. It was just dessert. Why could she not eat? “Don’t you like sweets?” Janice asked with a smile. “I’m fine.” Catelyn grew flustered. “It’s just that I don’t eat sweets often, and I’m afraid of tooth decay.” Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

“I can’t have food that is too sweet either, so I have told the chef in advance about this. Try it

-it’s delicious!” said Janice, trying her best to get Catelyn to taste her favorite dessert.

Catelyn, unable to damper Janice’s enthusiasm, picked up her spoon and was about to go for a taste.

Suddenly, a thick and broad palm caught her wrist, forcibly pressing her hand back to the table.

“She’s on her menstrual period, so she shouldn’t be eating cold food,” said Cedrick, calmly yet boldly altogether. For a moment, Janice was flabbergasted, and it showed on her face.
