Our Billion-Worth Twins

Chapter 279

Charles stretched his neck to peek and noticed that Cedrick wanted to send a message but did not. It then dawned on him.

It made sense why he was in such a bad mood; he must have quarreled with Miss Clark.

“Cedrick, Miss Clark is coming for an interview this afternoon at four. Would you like me to pass on a message to the human resource department for you to interview her personally?”

Cedrick looked displeased. “Office time for personal matters? Do you still want your bonus for this month?”

Charles felt like he had been wronged.

Catelyn finished her design draft and was about to send it to Chandier Jewelry personally. Of course, she still felt the jitters when she handed in her draft.

It was because she was a little bold with her design this time to not have done something mainstream.

However, to win the contest, she had to take some risks. She had done all that she could, and the rest was up to fate.

Lola spent two days in the police station because of Cedrick’s sexual harassment charges, and she was eventually released because of Edwin’s influence. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

Lola happened to experience soft torture while she was locked up, too. However, she had always been spoiled as the rich daughter of the Atherton family and had never lived in a slum like Catelyn did, so her tolerance for stress was not as good.

She looked like a hot mess when she was finally released. Her eye sockets were sunken, and her eyeballs were bloodshot. She looked exhausted and pitiful.

However, today was the submission date for the final competition, and she had to personally be at the office to watch.

When Catelyn came out after her submission, she bumped into Lola at the door. Catelyn almost thought she bumped into a ghost because that was how pale Lola looked.

Lola, on the other hand, did not look too pleased to meet Catelyn. “Looks like you are ready with your draft for the finals?” she snidely commented.

“Didn’t you see it?” Catelyn suddenly remembered that Lola slept with Cedrick and felt very iffy about it. Still, why did she look so disoriented? Lola’s face was so pale like a dried tree trunk in the winter, so much so that she had to rely on her makeup to look a little more human.

Catelyn was committed to attending the interview and, therefore, was all dressed up for it.

The two were such a contrast to each other. Lola had to blame Catelyn for her locked-up experience. “You must’ve done something. You annoyed Cedrick that night, and that was why he lost interest in me that night. I wasn’t satisfied, so don’t you dare dream of getting the first prize! You’ll regret this, Catelyn.” She should not have met Cedrick that night. She should have chosen a better time! On the other hand, Catelyn was confused. She annoyed Cedrick? Soon, she understood why. Lola must have not accomplished what she wanted to be this mad. Did that mean she failed to sleep with Cedrick? Catelyn suddenly perked up as this as she even laughed lightly. “I’m so sorry that your wish wasn’t fulfilled, and I’m sorry to have troubled you to volunteer yourself to sleep with him.” Lola was triggered at this and was about to start a fight. Alas, they were in the office, so she held her urges in.

Not only did she hold it in, but her lips were even curving upward. She bent forward and whispered into Catelyn’s ears, “We have more to come. Let’s see who’ll be smiling till the end.

The other staff at the office witnessed how Lola and Catelyn were whispering secrets with each other.

Catelyn could only imagine what Lola would do to her now that she offended her. There was no way around it, too, apart from facing it head-on. Plus, she did not believe that Lola could get away with what she did every time.
